As you would expect it’s a sell out

Ticket exchange is now available

The Ticket Exchange is an online resale platform which allows 2024/25 Season Ticket holders the opportunity to resell their seat for the fixture if they are unable to attend.

Via the new system, seats will continually become available across the Stadium, where supporters will be able to list up or purchase seats until two hours before kick-off.

Once the seat has been sold, the Season Ticket holder will be credited the match-to-match value of their Season Ticket price back into the E-Ticketing account. This can then be used for future home league fixtures or Season Ticket purchasers.

 
The game is of course live on Bein Sports

Awaiting confirmation on this seasons broadcast from the club using BluesTV as their current information is for last season.
 
It is on BluesTV but we’re waiting for our requests to be answer by the club for on demand. So far stonewall silence.
 
Don’t forget the pre and post match show is also available this season, even if you’re not on Bluestv

Championship Preston and Blackburn both had attendances just shy of 18,000 for their opening games.
 
We seem to have played our best football in pre season. Yet to show it, when it really matters. Still 45 minutes to go but we'll need to offer more going forward.
 
What is the main difference between now and pre season?
Just the intensity and opposition having something to really play for I think. Didn’t play badly really, just need to get used to having less decision making time on the ball plus the more physical tackling game lower league football brings.
 
Reflecting on the game. It was tough. They had done their homework on us. It had been spoken about a lot in interviews, so no surprise really they could work out how we were going to play. More to play for than in the friendlies, and maybe a nervousness about the team working together with something to lose.

Blues players looked fit though compared to the reading players who were really struggling towards the end of the game.

Great to see the ground full. Echo the comments on Reading doing their homework on us. We lacked the ability to push forward and make the final third count. A bit like England in the Euros.
