Usually buying in bulk should be cheaper. £76 for three games is obscene, £87 is mental.

Yeah, but surely ST holders aren't getting a month and a half window?
Plus that's when the price goes up so can non-ST not get the early bird deal?

The ST window is usually only a week or two, not a month and a half.
Panthers article HAS to be wrong. It's not on the EIHL website yet (or anywhere else for that matter).

As far as I've always known, both ST & non-ST are given the chance to buy the early bird tickets and it has usually been mentioned in the article of how it all works out with the information of ST go first in an allocated time slot, non-ST go after and then it's a free for all once the early bird time slot finishes. I can now see why you have said "I've no idea when they become available to non-ST holders though" so apologies there.

No probs, I'm sure it'll be corrected at some point, so quite useful to have the discussion on here to show I wasn't missing the very obvious

Email the office they've probably wrote it soo quick because they need them on sale Monday, not much time to get the money together for some people. I thought they could have given us another weeks notice I get not many other clubs are on sale Monday.

By the way JD.....its three games and one farce !!!!!!!!! £74 for four games of hockey isn't that bad! I'll be going for the first time this year, reckon it'll be good.

Just think......7000 fans x about £65.00 in one weekend. Where the hell does nearly half a million quid go ?

To be honest the third pace game is a farce. Players want to go home at that point. Even so, still not bad value for three quality games.

Wasn't there a window for the non-season ticket holders, but went to the majority of the games. I am not a season ticket holder, as I work for a company with a small amount of employees (so I couldn't be guaranteed the time of needed all the time), however I've only missed 2 games this season. I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one in this situation.
I must admit, I'm pretty peeved about the 6 week window as well as the non discount that's apparently happening.
I also seem to remember the time before general sale, where the season ticket holders went into one block and the non-season went into other blocks.

Listening to Todd Kelman's interview after the board meeting, it sounded as though the playoff tickets would be handled in the same way as last year, so Panthers & Steelers season ticket holders get a week or so to buy tickets, followed by the early bird, followed by general sales. I think the Panthers statement is just poorly worded, it also appears they have jumped the gun, given that there still is no PR from the league or other clubs (That I can see)

Does nobody think that the number of tickets that we are allocated gives a slight advantage over the weekend?

For the first time in many years I just don't fancy it. And that disappoints me cos I should do. Hockey is our family's thing, what we do. But none of us are feeling it at the minute

We have a good team this year so I thinK i would feel more peeved if we didn't actually make it this time. Shall I make one of my predictions for you ... that will cheer you up.. Haven't seen you in ages so get yourself syked up & we'll see you there.
