May be a stupid question and I'm 99.5 percent sure I know the answer but i'll ask anyway. Im on the nticketmaster website buying tickets for the december 10th Melbourne V vs Reds match. should i be buying in the Visitors area if im wanting to sit with the reds fans. The map calls it the away supporters bay, but the ticket listing doesnt have a catagory called this, only one called Visitors area.

Im pretty sure this is the area, Ii just dont want to end up with all the victory fans on the opposite side of the stadium or anything :)

That's a pretty stupid stuff-up by ticketek tbh! Obviously because in other sports ie. NRL, Union there are no away supporters so they aren't used to having to designate areas for them. I am also 99.999% confident it would be the Visitors bay, but I'm neither a United fan nor attending the match so I wouldn't have a clue so wait for further confirmation :)

Strange that Ticketek AND Ticketmaster are both selling tickets for MV games. Must be venue specific?

Yes, buy the visitors area.

Ticketmaster do Etihad games whilst Ticketek are AAMI Park, iirc.

I am the only one without my Season Tickets :cry:

Got mine last friday, PAX 2094.

Can't wait for this Friday, weather looks friendly which is a bonus.

I havent got mine yet either!

I have my tickets to melbourne V vs Adelaide in Melbourne though :)

I have mine - but I'm otherwise engaged on Friday night!!!! ](*,) :(

I got my members keyring and sticker today. I looked at the girl and said, "Is that it?"... :lol:

Did you go in to get it?
Were you notified you could?

Nope, I rang up and queried it. Girl said just confirm your ID when you go in.

I got my season card in the post Friday.
I also mailed the club querieing what the members get to show they are members.
Matt Rossi told me it was just the key-ring - seems your experience today has cemented that belief within me. :-s

But is it a GOOD keyring? Hopefully it isn't one of those cheap plastic rubbish things...

Keyring AND crucially, the Member: 2011-12 Sticker for your car. pls confirm sticker is in the membership pack:) pic of keyring as soon as I get mine. I paid the postage so I'm buggered if I'm going in to collect it now:)

Ok I got a trivia scenario for you Reds fans you might be interested in:

For the AUFC v Tard Kewells match, if it is already sold out a week before the game just say is the scenario. I call up Ticketek and request a ticket, and they say sorry we have no left.

If I call up AUFC and because it's only Round 2, I buy a GA membership. Do I get entry into the ground come game day? Because every seat has already been pre-sold but I have a membership?

So anyone got any idea how ticket sales are going?

Some figures for both memberships and season tickets would be nice. Anyone have any idea?

Oh, I actually meant for the MV friendly, but those would also be nice to know ;)

I may just be in Melbourne then. Will definitely have to get myself a ticket if I am!

I'm assuming you mean season ticket, as the membership is separate from it and doesn't give you entry to season fixtures.

Hey GA did you get yours? I haven't received mine :cry: :cry:

Well, it may not be a good key-ring (very blurry looking) but it's [size=9]HUGE[/size]! :)

Might I suggest downsizing the photo?

Got it yesterday, for some reason it was posted to my works physical address which i actually didn't think was recorded anywhere... Should have either gone to my home or work PO Box.

You will probably get yours today! [-o<

BTW everyone are we going to try and meet up this Friday at the Snakepit?

You back in town mate?

Thank you Harry Kewell and Melbourne Victory equals money (and lots of it) into Adelaide United coffers!!!!

Not quite sold out, contrary to popular belief. PAX currently sits just over 4000.

Back in town and happy, General. Saw my beloved West Ham win 4-3 at Upton park a couple of weeks ago. What a magic experience that was, walking the streets with all those happy east-enders.

It is amazing isn't it, watching MUFC vs Chelski was a brilliant experience last time I was over! Are you getting along Friday night? We have to catch up :)

It'll have to be next time. I'm double-booked and can't get out of it since I have to do some speaking on the night. Planned long before the game unfotunately. I even have a ticket thanks to my membership! I shall fondle my AU keyring instead.

If you want to catch up Friday @ the marsh then I will be at the snakepit prior to game. I think Timmo was planning on being there for this game as well.
