A student of mine is going to be in London at the time Leeds play Palace. As a sports fan she is interested in going. How difficult is it going to be to get a ticket?

ANDY? lol, Would be best to contact the club first? So if she rings Palace up they might be able to provide one for them. But I don't really know how ticketing works that way in the world.Originally Posted by cherrypie7

Hard - fairly popular game as a lot of London based Leeds fans go (decent drinkers close to the ground with no fear of trouble too).
Best bet would be via a Palace season ticket holder (they can buy two tickets each) but then sitting in the home end.
The away ticket allocation likely to be snapped up purely by ST holders.

If she wants to go to a game Fulham or AFC Wimbledon easier options if they are playing at home.

Sorry I am totally ignorant, forgive me. I just want to know if it is possible to roll up to a game (any match in London) and buy a ticket to get in.

Not for Leeds v Palace anymore - you need to buy tickets in advance whether via Leeds or via Palace.

Thanks Hope. Will tell her to try to catch the match at Craven cottage.

I suspect that with any PL match, given the restrictions that appear still to be in place regarding numbers etc, tickets get sold in advance and as per the LUFC stance away allocations are even more tightly controlled now than before Covid hit. Afraid the days of turning up and buying tickets one the day are over, at least in the senior professional divisions.

Yeah, gone are the days when as a 17-year old I used to go to the window to buy a children's ticket and enjoy the games on the cheap lol.
Even here everything is digital and you pay extra to the ticketing company and ohh would you like extras nice front sit and undercover that's an extra thank you. I used to rock up early go find a sit which now you have to go where they tell you to watch the under 18s than the reserves and then the seniors was quite a day on the cheap. Then it went the reserves and seniors and now it's only seniors lol so I haven't attended since the new system was introduced and they jacked prices.
Gosh, where I live it would take 40 dollars for fuel around 25 dollars for a cheap ticket 15 dollars for parking and god forbid if I had to buy food and a drink on the ground. I was buying a Membership every year till the last couple of and never went used to give it to others to use.

Virtually impossible is the answer I'm afraid; I'm a ST holder and have tried for tickets to all of our away games this season and have only been successful for scum, Southampton and Everton. Although there are tickets it's a massive scrum to get on the website when the tickets are released, sometimes you can be waiting for up to an hour and by the time you get on there's no chance any will be left; only chance you have is to be at the front of the queue, get straight on the website and have some very fast fingers!
