Forest Tickets

[16bha]

I bought our 4 tickets for Forest on 8th March, and they still haven't arrived in the post. I'm getting worried now.

Is anyone else still to receive their tickets?

I ordered mine online on Tuesday. Was in ticket office at the Amex today, and they were batching up the tickets to post out over next day or so.

Are you one of 1000 fans stuck on two trains for the cup game or one of the 7000 made it for a midweek cup game?

No but i remember the illuminated screen in the ground informing those in the ground that the trains (a train ) had broken down , did they ever make it to the match ? it seemed up to half time there were still Brighton fans streaming into the ground

Would be a great effort if we could take 3000 odd up there, we would be impressed if another team of that sort of distance bought that many to the Amex.

Which is the best site for booking group rail tickets? Thanks in advance!

Nope, we never got there. Got as far as Kettering and then had to wait until they turned the engine round to get us back home.

We all tried to get off at Kettering just to stretch our legs a bit but the old bill made us all get back on the train.
Dear old British Rail were still trying to get us to Nottingham even though the match was almost over just so that they didn't have to give us our train fares back.
But they failed massively. We left Brighton at 12pm and got home to Brighton station at 12am.

But we did get our money back.

With a large crowd expected it could be a case of finding somewhere to stand when you get inside.
