How the heck am I meant to get my tickets ? Working in Haywards Heath this week, leaving home at 5.30am and not getung back to Maidstone till 6.30pm. Don't waste your breath,the idiots on here don't care,they've got theirs,well most of them. Calm down with your insults. It was a civil discussion until that. |

Got mine this morning - got there about 11:30 and there was no queue, I got served straight away. I think they said there were a few hundred left, but they were expecting to sell the whole allocation. Which surprised me, as I never thought there'd be that many people for a Monday night game - even a 5th round one. If we can sell out nearly 5,000 tickets for Coventry on a Monday night, it makes you wonder just how big our casual fan base is. If only we could get more of them to turn up for league games! Average attendance of 2,000, for arguments sake, how many of those do you think go every week? How many unique fans watch us at home each season? Would be around 4,000 I reckon |

I think the fact it's on a Monday night has attracted an unexpected amount of interested parties that would probably not have bothered if it had been on a Saturday because they'd be following their own teams. I had 2 people in front of me in the queue that support Charlton and Arsenal and had driven over from Sittingbourne to get tickets. |

Only about half of my mates (all regular supporters) have got tickets.
Midweek daytime is all right for some but not if you've got a proper job.

Sorry the club didn’t hand deliver a ticket to your door. The entitlement is insane. I am and was never going to the game,if i had been Ii could easily have got there to purchase one and i have never, repeat never admitted to being sane. I hope you got your ticket,many genuine fans have not and i feel for those fans who have been let down by the club so badly. Once again I apologise for caring i know that in this day and age it is a foreign concept for most people. I did. I am a STH and went after work on Wednesday. No one has been 'let down' by the club. No one is owed a ticket. Would I rather genuine fans such as yourself get the tickets? Absolutely. Do I believe there is a logistical way to get tickets to those such as yourself? No. The club can't go round cherry picking which supporters are deserving of being offered a ticket as per your previous suggestion. |

Me and a couple of mates (regular supporters) took half day off work (London) to get tickets.
Heard about the sell out on the way back and feel more than a little let down.

Maybe could and should have done it this evening - That said they did the Ipswich General sale on a Saturday and got pelters for it. Not sure there's ever a perfect time to flog thousands of tickets in person. |

Just to point out, that had I not got season ticket holder friends, I would have missed out because I left for SOMERSET (waves at pwe) yesterday to watch us at Taunton Town. EDIT: for a match that has now been postponed |

There seems to be 2 blocks of segregation and so perhaps they can release one of those for more tickets to us? If we behave ourselves of course

Everyone telling me I'm wrong and and having backhanded pops at me is not civilised in my opinion. It makes me wonder just how the club has managed to shit on so many long term fans with half this forum stuck up their arse. I don't like the "I'm alright Jack, f**k you" element,it stinks to high heaven. Some days I'm ashamed to support thus club,a club that I once loved,a club that used to care. |

No with 10 days to go it's far easier to give them to 2500 non Maidstone fans during the course of 3 hours. Why did they all have to be sold so quickly giving those,please read above, that work a realistic time frame to purchase a ticket. Its nothing short of pathetic |
