Saints are requesting supporters to book early for Leeds.
Saints have already sold 700 of the initial 1,100 allocation for the game at Elland Road on Saturday December 19th, meaning that they are going to request a further batch of tickets, thus taking the total to 1,700 for the crunch game of the month.
They can however request more tickets taking the allocation up to 2,800, however the deadline for this is Tuesday December 8th. The reason being is that Leeds could allocate these to their own fans.
Saints are therefore asking supporters planning on going to Leeds to buy their tickets in the next day if possible, if there is a rush by close of play Tuesday, it will give Saints a good idea if they could sell the extra allocation and request it, if demand doesnt increase in the next day or so then Saints will only take the 1,700 tickets, however this could create problems as early indications are that deamnd is likely to be more than this number, so the club is warning supporters early that they could find themselves unable to get a ticket if they dont move fast.
The Saints tickeet office should be applauded for being pro active.
