E ticketing sales for Newcastle and Arsenal look very healthy.
Newcastle looks like only tickets left for the very end blocks of Ninian upper and a few
still dotted around in other upper blocks but not many.
Arsenal , just a handfull left surely will be sold out within a few days.
Cant see many times that tickets will go on general sale this season against 12 or so top clubs.

Don't go by e:ticketing mate, there's still over 2,000 season tickets available according to Vince
Tue Jul 24, 2018 1:31 pm
Yea there still season tickets available but all seats are for sale so they will sell at pro-rata price if game sold out. Only about 40 seats left for Arsenal game. No extra seats unfortunately
Tue Jul 24, 2018 2:28 pm
Leon there are more than 40 left trust me, the Club release tickets in batches and blocks so e:ticketing does not show a true representation of tickets sold.
Been discussed and debated on the reasons and merits of why the club do it loads last season.
If you go on e ticketing now there are only season tickets available in the top tier and nowhere near 2,000 plus, this is incorrect.
Tue Jul 24, 2018 3:29 pm
Yea they did that last season but not this season as the demand is there. We will know for sure when the remaining 40 go and see what happens.

Only teasing there are about 50 or 60 left
Tue Jul 24, 2018 8:32 pm

General Sale tickets are going to be a bit of a damp squib this season for many games.
The forum will be awash with claims of "long time fan looking for a ticket"

How can there be only 70 tickets left if there are 2,000 unsold season tickets.
I bought 2 extra Arsenal tickets in the Canton corners over the phone yesterday sat together that were not available on e:ticketing.
It's not a true guide on ticket sales as stated the Club for whatever reason are releasing tickets on there in batches which is a silly move if u ask me as some people will end up not bothering or rumours will spread of games sold out when they arent

Simple solution to fans saying sold out is simply ring ticket office unless of course club actually tells fans through official channels it's sold out?
As for your question on only 70 left? Club simply keeping open 2k seats for ST they will be individually available on match by match basis and guess by end oct there will be less than 2k St available so less available for general sale match by match

I'll be ringing ticket office next time. I bought Newcastle ticket through e-ticketing. One second it would show one available seat in a certain block, 2 minutes later a different single seat was showing, 2 minutes later nothing, then 2 minutes later a single seat elsewhere in the block. Very unreliable.
I ended up having too go up in the red seats as that was the only place that seats were available next to each other.

Here’s what happens with season tickets. There are x available to sell within the rules of the maximum allowed. If there are season ticket seats that haven’t been sold then they will be made available for sale for a particular game. If the seat you want has been sold then they will offer you a seat somewhere else for that particular game and you will be issued a paper ticket. If the game sells out then unfortunately there will be no other option than to offer a pro rata rate at a reduced price which takes off the ticket price. The Arsenal game has no other seats available other than the ones on eticketing. The club do hold back rows of seats and put them on sale once the block fills up. This has not been the case for some of our popular games like Man City, Arsenal Etc.. If you think there are more blocks for the Arsenal game then you are sadly mistaken. Just wait and see what happens when the little blue dots in eticketing disappear.
Wed Jul 25, 2018 8:15 pm
32 tickets left. The number seams to be going down and I haven’t seen any new blocks/rows released for a over a week.

this nonsense has gone on for weeks so when is the penny going to drop.? e ticketing is NOT an accurate guide to how many tickets are left it wasnt last season, hasnt been regarding ST sales and is not now.
id like to think we can sell out Arsenal but there are a lot more than 32 tickets left at this point in time.
Wed Jul 25, 2018 9:18 pm
Let’s stop arguing and see what happens when those blue dots go down to zero. If they put more on sale then I was wrong. Should find out in the next few days so let’s see.

And they release in blocks, so no real indicator of crowd size at this point!

Fri Jul 27, 2018 9:54 am
I am expecting the countdown to go 5, 4, 3, 253 as they release another group of tickets.

im afraid so..i do think it will sell out or go close but this countdown is off the wall..
its not the 1st or even 21st time e ticketing has been misleading yet the mackrel still bite.
Fri Jul 27, 2018 7:50 pm
Well according to eticketing 0 arsenal tickets left in
Fri Jul 27, 2018 7:52 pm
Nothing left online now, so if there are spare then they haven’t been put on sale.
To me it looks like that’s it - apart from a few hundred being held back for more season ticket sales and whatever’s left in hospitality
