I'm running out of time before my holiday to get thro'. I want a ticket for the Man U match. I emailed the box office because I couldn't get thro' on the phone, asking if I could apply for a ticket in advance as I was going on hoilday, and they replied saying I could do by post (I wouldn't know for definite then !) or by ringing !!!!!!! which would be good if it wasn't always engaged .

Sorry for ranting on about this but it seems impossible for anyone who doesn't live in Newcastle to get tickets without an enormous amount of hassle!

So you didn't like my suggestion of asking someone on the bbs to help? i'm certain someone will sort you out with a ticket if you ask nicely....

Yes if you live here you can simply take a half day off work, travel into the City Centre, Q up for ages and then trek back home. Shouldn't take more than 2 or 3 hours plus travel costs and parking charges. :-)

Kats I understand that they do respond to Fax & email. Someone gave the email addy here recently. Might be worth a try. Or if you want to let me know your requirements perhaps I can help. I've got to go in there to sort out a ticket lost in the post.

Thanks Jonno, I already emailed them ,but they just said to ring or post an application ! I just want one ticket for anywhere I don't care where I sit. I go on holiday on thursday and don't get back until the 7th of September. I don't want to leave it until then incase they sell out.
