I get the feeling its not going too well,by now we`ve normally had a statement saying the original Panthers blocks have sold out and blocks x+y are on sale. Unless i`ve missed the statement of course,in which case apologies. We havent bought our tickets for the 4 of us yet,mainly due to finances,what about everyone else?

I bought mine the first day they went on sale for NPSC members, lowest i could get in a Panthers block was row P, that was a few weeks ago now aswell.....
Surely they must of nearly been filled by now.

Far too expensive for what you get.

Saving my cash. Even umpteen pints of awful lager can't improve the enjoyment of EIHL hockey this season, boring as hell for the most part so I just can't justify the cost.
Yes the other aspects of the weekend are great, good to have the craic with fellow fans and such like; but I can have a laugh with my mates and other hockey fans without paying £80 for the privilege.
If Panthers don't get to the finals weekend I would say a sub 6000 attendance both days is distinctly possible. Sheffield will up the numbers because they've had a great season so more fans will be willing to travel to this as a result and also the fact there are 2 extra teams might add a few. That said if you lived in Dundee then you could probably buy a small mansion for the cost of taking the family to the finals weekend.

Not going this year. I cannot justify the cost of three adult tickets and one child for two days based on this season's performances.
Not really enjoyed the playoffs since 2006/07.

The only way I can see myself attending is if I hear Panthers have qualified for the final on the Saturday evening I might scramble for a ticket for the final but even that is doubtful. To think that an adult ticket for the final is £40 near the date of the game is ridiculous, there are a lot of premiership football teams who don't even charge that.
I'm very tired of this Panthers season and to be honest I'm counting down the days until we can start looking forward to next season and this year is well out of the way.

Im off to the first horse racing fixture of the season at Nottingham the Wednesday after the Playoffs. I put together some figures and for me to attend the Play Off weekend (at which Panthers may or may not feature, and if they do it may be for only one fixture), it would cost approx £110. To have a days horse racing (inclouding all my bets and a good meal and drinks throughout the day will cost me - assuming I dont make any money ) approx £70. Its a bit of a no-brainer not to go to the play offs really. HL

Mmmmm,it looks like Coreys worst nightmare might come true before we even get to the final four,because its looking very much like Panthers v Brahead in the play offs first.
At least NB will be pleased,what with all those Panthers fans descending on Brahead again for the second leg.

By those figures you're spending £55 per day on ice hockey compared to £70 on horse racing.

Best to ring the arena box office now i think. Weekend concession is £55 but cant be booked online for some reason. I got a family weekend pass in block 18 last Friday,14 to 17 is full i think. we`re on the end of row L if you want to say hello (anyone else too)

I went down and got my tickets on Wednesday, block 18 row P. From memory it should be a pretty decent view.
I asked the lady at the box office how sales were going and she was confident of a sell out.
