GRAND FINAL Preview: Reds v WSW @ The Oval - 1 May 2016

[ZANZIBAR]

Flying in the day before. Lucky for me its a public holiday up here the monday after.
Awesome to hear 33k sold already. Realistically we have to get over 40k to consider it a success crowd wise.

Posted in other thread but article says:

"This is the highest number of pre sales in the history of the Hyundai A-League."

A friend just told me he got a PAX No: 37,027.

Just had a look and Cat C is exhausted and I'm pretty sure single seats left for the others categories.

Wouldn't be surprised if they sell out tonight. My MIL is getting some for FIL when she gets home this afternoon. I'd say lots of people will be trying to grab tickets tonight after work.

38195 as of 15 minutes ago.

What sections belong to WSW?

I believe they have been allocated all of the northern section in front of the hill. Two bays for active support, the rest for non active support. The number of seats?

Odd decision, if they gave them for example bays 141-145 they could have got more use out of the hill. Hopefully they at least put some sort of signage out on the hill and behind the goals like they did in the UEFA Champions League final last year.

They have been given 141-145 and 146-149, I think 148 and 149 were active support bays. I guess there is a certain number of seats that need to be given to the away team

EDIT: Maybe not 141, I can't remember exactly.

Is it GA for Reds fans behind the seated section on the hill? If so it will definitely kick off!!

[supsup]

I think they close the hill off. Surely it would be a safety concern and that's even before you factor in the RBB. I truly hope it's a peaceful event – the angst just shits me off so much.

Val says 43,000 sold.

Amazing

Pretty sure FIFA regulations prevent the hill from being used.

South end is AUFC/Gen Admission
North end is WSW.

[milan_7]

I think the FIFA regulations thing is bullocks, been people on the hill pretty much every time we have played there.

You mean 'bollocks', right?
