SWANSEA 'BUBBLE MATCH' TICKET INFO

Posted on: Wed 20 Feb 2008

Ticketing details for the League One clash between Swansea City and Rovers at the Liberty Stadium next month have been confirmed.

Both meetings between the two clubs this season have been given 'bubble match' and all-ticket status, and will follow different procedures to normal fixtures.

The Swans visit the Memorial Stadium on Tuesday 18th March, while the Pirates head to South Wales six days later on Easter Monday (24th March).

The latter fixture is live on Sky Sports and has a 5:45pm kick-off time.

'Bubble matches' see away fans ferried into an opposition ground exclusively on official club coaches, with no other travelling supporters permitted entry to the game.

It means that Swansea supporters heading to Bristol will not be able to travel to the game independently, and neither will Gasheads planning to make the visit to the Liberty Stadium.

Instead, all away followers must book through their own club's official away travel service where coach tickets and matchday tickets will be supplied as a combined package.

Coaches will then depart from pre-arranged collection points, before convoying direct to the venue.

The decision to make the fixtures between the two sides 'bubble matches' follows discussions earlier in the year between both clubs and consultation with the local police authorities.

Ticket prices for the away end at the Liberty Stadium have been confirmed at £16 for adults, £10 for students and senior citizens, and £7 for juveniles. A full paying adult can purchase up to four juvenile tickets for a reduced price of £1 per ticket.

Coaches tickets will cost extra and will double up as special match vouchers that will entitle holders to match tickets only when on the coach outside the Liberty Stadium.

Please note that no match tickets will be handed out prior to the day of the game and there will be no way to obtain one other than by being on an official coach on the day of the match.

Coaches will depart the usual Supporters Club collection points as follows, as well as two stops along the M4:

Kingswood - 2:00pm (£11.50)
Memorial Stadium - 2:00pm (£11.50)
Eastville - 2:15pm (£11.50)
M4 J23a Magor Services - 2:45pm (£10)
M4 J36 Sarn Park Services - 3:30pm (£5)

Coach tickets and match vouchers must be purchased in advance, and are available now from Pirate Leisure at the Memorial Stadium and the Supporters Club shop in Kingswood.

Tickets can also be booked over the phone on 0117 9096648, although if possible supporters are asked to avoid extremely busy periods over the coming days as West Bromwich Albion FA Cup tickets go on sale.

Rovers have been given an initial allocation of 800 seats, although more will be made available if these sell out.
