Their games tend to get moved to the Sunday if they've played in Europe on the Thursday. The likes of Fulham and Palace won't have that problem. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had the dubious pleasure of visiting Selhurst on many ocassions, but my experience may be somewhat clouded by the fact that our fixtures there have a bit of an 'edge' to them (Palace v Brighton is a rivalry match) and there is always a very heavy police presence. The view from the away end is atrocious, but I expect there are better sightlines to be had from elsewhere in the ground (facing away from the pitch. Sorry, couldn't help myself). It's not the nicest part of town, but it would certainly give you an 'old school' experience. If it's a choice between Fulham and Palace, I'd go for Fulham every time - it's one of my favourite away trips of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve been to the Cottage but not since they built the new riverside stand. Fulham v Sheffield may be the best bet for the Saturday before the Bills game. I’d be interested in going up to Luton but I understand their stadium is tiny. So I’m thinking tickets will be really hard to get, especially with Tottenham in town.

If you have reservations about the areas around Selhurst Park being a shithole then you'll be in for a right treat in Luton 😁 The fixtures for my soccer team don't get released until early July but I'm hoping they're away to a team in the London area the day before the Bills/Jags game. I bagged some tickets for the Bills game last night. Plenty of tickets becoming available on the secondary markets from those who renewed London games season tickets but aren't using them for a certain game.

BritBill Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 2 minutes ago, SoCal Deek said: Brit….What secondary market? I'm a member of a Facebook group which acts a third party for people to sell on their tickets. It's mainly fans who've bought London games season tickets but can't make both games so look to sell the unwanted tickets on. Strict rules are applied Tickets have to be sold for face value via PayPal (to protect the buyer). Private chats to set up the sale are facilitated by the page moderators. You have to be very quick when posts go up offering tickets for sale. The first person to reply saying they are interested gets a chat set up with the seller. And you go from there. I can PM you the group name if you want to have a look? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattM Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 Looking into tickets for Premier League games and noticed that there are secondary market tickets from various ticket brokers for the Arsenal-Man City game, which would be expensive, but phenomenal to see. (I've dreamed of going to an Arsenal game since reading Fever Pitch--have toured Emirates, but never been to a game.) Some questions for our UK Bills fans friends, if they don't mind. I seem to recall someone saying that the folks at Emirates frown on scalped tickets to the point of not letting people in with them. Am I misremembering that? Or are ticket brokers common/allowed in the UK? Any particular ones to consider or avoid? And finally, is there a chance this game gets moved time/place-wise because it's a huge game? If moved, would it be just later that night or possibly go another day? I'd hate to shell out and then not be able to go. Many thanks in advance....

Commons sense will prevail. StubHub is a common ticket re-sales market. Tickets for this game will be like rocking horse ***** considering last season. Gunner has mentioned in an earlier post he’s expecting the Arsenal v Man City game to be moved from the 3pm Saturday spot it’s currently in. However, it may be the case the powers that be might not want an NFL game and a big crowd at the Emirates in the same day. Once the TV fixtures for that period of the season are announced I’ll let you know 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a good question. Having said that, after booking the flight and hotel, I realize that if I have to spend a couple hundred more than I’d like for a ticket, it’s just one more drop in the bucket. I’ll probably overpay early just to have some peace of mind. Also, a great seat would be nice, but ANY seat will do just fine. We went to a Super Bowl (Minneapolis) and had almost the worst seats in the house. Second from the top row in the end zone. I saw the same game everyone else did, and I checked a SB game off the bucket list. Where I sat is not what I regret about that game! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillStime Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 (edited) Is there an official TwoBillsDrive tailgate for the London Game? Or has anyone seen any options other than this one: ALL-INCLUSIVE TAILGATE - Access to Our ALL-INCLUSIVE Tailgate Party just steps from Tottenham Stadium hosted by Andre Reed!!! I'm curious to see where this tailgate is considering there isn't a lot of parking or open space around the stadium, etc. Update: Actually, I don't even know if this tailgate is an option unless you buy one of their packages.
