Hotspur v Leicester Cheap Tickets Get Discounts Students Tips

Morning folks, woke up dead keen on nabbing those Leicester away tickets at Spurs. Heard it’s a proper nightmare getting ’em cheap, especially as a student. But hey, gotta try, right?

The Early Scramble

Grabbed my lukewarm coffee first thing. Brain still fuzzy, but already hammering my laptop keyboard. Jumped straight onto the official ticketing site. Big mistake. Nearly choked seeing the standard price. Way over my student budget, no lie.

Switched gears fast. Scoured the discount sections. Nada. Zilch. Felt like they hid it proper. Remembered someone mentioning student deals needing a special link or code. But where? Racked my brain.

Digging For Student Gold

Dug out my Uni email login. Fingers crossed. Searched old newsletters – sports societies, NUS stuff, anything footy-related. Boom! Buried under a pizza promo, there it was – that short-lived student discount link. Felt like winning a mini-lottery.

• Verified Student Status: Had to upload my student ID. Screenshots suck. Blurry digits galore. Took three tries.
• Code Hunt: Found a generic season code (SPURSSTU) in the newsletter fine print. Typed it slow, praying it hadn’t expired.
• Section Check: Had to pick the “away fan” section labeled for discounts. Almost missed it scrolling too fast.

Added the cheapest ticket it showed. Deep breath. Clicked checkout. Then… heart stopped. Site froze. Spinning wheel of doom. Nearly launched my mug across the room.

The Checkout Nightmare

Reloaded the page like a maniac. Cart empty. Felt actual despair. Went back through the steps faster this time. Code still worked, ticket still there. Got to payment again. Pasted my card details like my life depended on it. Hit confirm. Loading… loading…

Glorious email notification pinged. Confirmation landed! Did a proper little fist pump right there in my PJs. Total cost? Barely half what I saw earlier. Chuffed to bits.

Lessons Learned The Hard Way

Straight up? It’s a faff. Almost gave up twice. Key bits:

• Uni Emails Are Key: That discount link ain’t on the main site. Found mine buried in Uni comms.
• Timing Is Brutal: Those discount sections sell out crazy fast. Gotta be ready the second they drop.
• Codes Change: Don’t rely on old codes floating online. Mine came direct.
• Payment Glitches: Site crashed twice. Nearly cried. Persistence pays (literally).

Right. Gotta chase down my mate Dave now to make travel plans. Still buzzing I pulled this off. Feels like proper daylight robbery, getting in for that price!
