Hutt Rec Games - Bellevue and buses etc

Really? There is approx 3,800 season ticket holders, and each one is entitled to ask for up to 10 extra seats each...

I agree Mr Stevens. I agree re. what is likely. My piont was that there does seem to be some risk that late responding season ticket memebers could create a situation where there is an issue. I wasn't saying this is the end of the world, just that it is "interesting".

Seats are reserved for the season pass members so anything over that is just pot luck surely?

Not really that interesting!

The 4000 tickets are for the season pass members themselves. Any extra tickets will be coming out of the other 4500 seats that are currently on public sale in a first come first served basis. Fairly simple I thought? 

Crikey.  Between now and 14 Feb (1st game @ hutt), we have 7 games of which 5 are against teams below us.

We could be on to a sell-out crowd early on if we continue this form.

(need an anti-jinx)

Would be nice but as a Nix fan you are humble and never take anything for granted as to avoid jinxing something. Will the locals take shirts off for the lads if we are leading in the 80th?

Who has 10 friends??

Not really Patrick the club asked season ticket holders to email them.they then replied they will be in contact in due course.in the meantime they start selling tickets.think it's more than reasonable to question the club about what's the story.do we need to buy our extra tickets know or are they being held for us and are they in the zone.

Its going to be a "family friendly carnival style event".

Can't wait.

Bouncy castles, face painting, Nixie and the nixie chicks.

And Hutt Valley Bogans.

Hopefully all games sell out and it's a great day and the ground is at full capacity.

so because of all the confusion I decided to just buy a yellow fever ticket instead of waiting for the one on hold for me . Easy . Plus if I have an extra ticket ill just sell it on

Put it on trademe if it is sold out....

Considering this. Especially hearing tickets are on sale to public and I'm yet to receive an email back yet. Better safe than sorry, plus can always drag an extra along. 

Made my day 

Have emailed requesting our tickets to all 3 games even though we're going to be out town for one of them. Will just give our 2 for that game away for free to someone. Thought it was easier to request all games, than risk someone making a mistake and sending us tickets for the one we're missing and not one of the others.

I am assuming the grandstand is reserved for sponsors??

The grandstand is pretty horrible anyway. I wouldn't get too stressed about it. A lot of the seats are behind poles holding the roof up.

I like how you still say "if"

Well have you got 10 friends?

Honest answer please!!

I seem to have 10 friends when I walk out of my hotel in Wanchai, but otherwise, no, probably not.

In that case I have 10 friends as well, five on each hand.

Mrs Palmer and her 4 daughters?

FWIW: I saw some pub talk further back in the thread.
All bar the last are within ten minutes walk.  Say fifteen for the last.

The Foggy Dew, 64 High Street, Lower Hutt.

Café Reka, the Dowse Art Museum, Sunday: 10am–4.30pm. After the Bellevue closest bar to ground. 

Chapelli's Eatery and Wine Bar 18 Laings Road, Lower Hutt.

Bellevue Hotel 140 Woburn Rd, Lower Hutt 5010 – right outside ground. At one time, years back, the Stop Out clubrooms.

Exchange Hotel, 140 Queens Drive, Lower Hutt.

The Big Chill, 180 High Street, Lower Hutt.

Angus Inn, Corner Waterloo Rd. & Cornwall, St., Lower Hutt. 

Parrot & Jigger Bar 477 Hutt Rd Alicetown, Lower Hutt 5010, 04 939 1036

This could be a good option if the weathers good - tonnes of room outside at station village

We're in discussion with a couple of options. I'm being purposefully vague so that people don't make too many plans yet until we have something better to tell you.

Hope to have a firm plan by next week.

Interesting that in this article Morrison is quoted as saying seat will be limited to about 7,500, where earlier the number had been 9,000.

Old article (11 October)?

Or maybe doesn't include the dark zone seating?

Of those I put up this would be my least favoured option.  Quite a hike up to the Hutt Rec. Am not a great picture editor but the black dots show all the other locations. ( Angus Inn off picture in direction of arrow.If it shows when on the forum.)

Right. I didnt actually know where Hutt Rec is until now.

;) Somewhere near Taupo isn't it?

Don't leave home till you've seen the country...

It's about 1 kilometer from the P&J to the Hutt Rec. Belle Vue is across the road. Glass house is about 1/2 a k away too.

Got a reply back to me email, saying they got my email and will be in contact.
