Got my tickets by phone today. Looking at their forum it looks like the penny has dropped and the are stressing about their home end being taken over too.

They now know we are going to sell out

Will be plenty of people going in the home end at this rate.

desperado wrote: 11 Mar 2019, 19:48 This mad scramble for tickets will surely be repeated for Chippenham on Good Friday and St Albans. Chippenhams ground only holds 3000 so imagine we will get 1500 at most? So there will be a lot of disappointed people
St Albans' holds 5000. They had just over 1,000 for Dulwich Hamlet & about 750 for their previous home game. It's a proper old fashioned ground. I went there when we played in that league cup competition in the old Conference. If it's a promotion decider we should be able to take over the ground - I'm sure they'll be glad of the money.

I Doubt either of those games will be segregated, or even be ticket only (unless there is major trouble at Woking), so we will probably have better access to these games than at Woking, where we have been limited tickets. Unless somebody else knows better.

Finally managed to get through 10 minutes ago and was told we'd sold out.

I can confirm that it's a sell out as far as our allocation is concerned. We've sold more than we sometimes get at home on a February Tuesday evening when we're playing badly.

I wonder if there is any possibility of woking giving us more tickets? If our fans are going in the home end anyway wouldn't it make sense?

I would be surprised if they do offer us more tickets. If they genuinely feel they are in this title race they will want to fill the home end with there own fans. Giving us more tickets would just be an admission that they don't think they are good enough to beat us to the title and would rather take our cash and try their luck in the playoffs.

Aww, bless!

'Adrian' on the Cards forum thinks we're all wetting ourselves about visiting their salubrious ground:
Kingfield, Torquay’s Wembley??!!

Why the assumption Woking won't sell their full home allocation? If the game was at Plainmoor you would expect us to sell out of home tickets despite the fact we are still playing in a half empty stadium for other home fixtures despite the success of the team.

I think the assumption may be based on Woking having only sold out Kingfield twice over the last decade (Coventry and Watford in the FA Cup). Even their local derby against Aldershot a few season ago only mustered 4,500 in a 6,000 capacity stadium. Woking may see how their ticket sales are going when their office closes on Thursday. If they are not selling as fast or as many as TU's they may decide to allocate more tickets to us. For all the clubs in this league (including us) cash is king. Look no further than Truro who remained at Plainmoor just to cash in on the festive season match.

One has to remember this is not am all ticket match, they are just selling tickets in advance. So any Torquay fan who has brought a ticket in other parts of the ground should not be evicted because as stated it is not an all ticket match and there is no mention of the match being segregated, as was the case when Woking played Wealdstone.. Mind you I expect Woking did not realise that 1,400 tickets was not enough for the Yellow Army following.

Bound to be some young and old Stone Island muppets showing off their love making techniques, just as they did away at Bath. Sad really.
