Full Ticket information

How to purchase tickets

Saints supporters are advised that ticket sales for this fixture will be conducted online only, ensuring a smooth and efficient process for the majority of fans. The only exception applies to those registered as disabled with the club, while Ambulant disabled supporters can purchase online in the same way as for a standard away match.

To best support fans who may require additional assistance or do not have internet access, a limited phone service will be available. However, due to high demand, supporters should be prepared for longer wait times than usual when calling.

Importantly, there will be sufficient ticket availability across Thursday and Friday to accommodate all Season Ticket holders, giving them a fair opportunity to secure their place.

Fans who are not in their qualifying window should not attempt to call the Ticket Office and purchase tickets.

When making your booking, take extra care in checking all details are correct before paying, as we will NOT be able to amend any orders once they are processed.
