Spent 15 min on hold. A guy answered and told me he was forwarding me to the away rep, Jeremy, and to leave Jeremy a message and he would call back within 48 hours. The initial guy said don't panic as they have lots of tickets for TFC Away Supporters.
I emailed him at 5 PM yesterday and still haven't heard back. Doubt we'll hear very much until the allocation and section issues are sorted with the SG's.
I wouldn't worry though. All my previous interactions with Jeremie have been great. He'll take care of you once everything is figured out.
Thanks for update!
Just booked my accommodation. Downtown airbnb's are getting snapped up quickly so if you're planning on booking one, do it soon.
Tried going on the ticketpro website and seems as if they are sold out or close to it as I can't get 2 tickets together....I left a message for Jeremie to call me back so fingers crossed on that one....
Really starting to get worried that my bus and train tickets along with my hotel is going to waste here with nothing on hope of tickets for non members! Please please help. I had no idea about the paid membership until I seen posts about not being able to get tickets unless you're an official member
I'm a bit puzzled if the Impact have a "play book" on away supporters why not have sections set aside for visiting support to buy in? Its one thing to allocate tickets to supporter groups to control, but what sense does it make if you then have people who aren't members in a specific group sitting throughout the stadium?
I can tell you right now based on just talking with some friends who are making the trip up you will have a large number of people at this game that aren't "members", whether this group or another. People will just buy tickets where they can, I don't know it just seems like this is asking for trouble. They should have already known this.
Can anyone please give me a contact to join RPB asap!! Been going to a lot of away games with you guys. Spoke to one of the founders at Legends on Sunday. But forgot to get his number. Really want to shout and support with you guys. Sent email already but haven't got a reply yet.
Thanks guys

OK... Sarnia TFC.....I panicked.
With flights and hotel booking already in place ....I booked 3 tickets in closest section I could find to 149, 151.......section 143. Anyone else in similar situation feel free to join me....
Would actually be cool if we could overtake that whole side of the stadium.
If there is chance to trade for tix in TFC section I will do later and sell these ones.
3 TFC tix in hand is worth 6 in la bouche!
Tickets are available in the same sections as the supporters group. I think we need to clear the air. You don't need to be a member of a group to attend the game and be in the designated away stands. Obviously I'm not trying to discourage people from joining the group but just did not someone not to attend the game because they don't think they can get tickets. If you contact the Impact directly they will get you situated in the away stand with tickets. The other thing people need to know, for those that haven't travelled to see TFC, is that when you buy a ticket in the away stand it's essentially a ticket on the terrace. Everyone stands and merely fills in space so essentially, don't count on sitting in your actual seat.
*UPDATE* - It appears Bluenose13 beat me to the punch! Thanks for clearing it up fella!

Listen guys, getting a membership does not mean you will have access to these tickets.
That there is no guarantee, we know very little in terms of allocation.TFC away supporters & TFC supporter groups will be right beside each other or above each other(upper deck)
We don't wont people to apply for membership just to obtain a ticket,we are more then that,our members are volunteers,there is a lots of work to organize trips,tickets,make banners,fundraisers,we would like you guys to join and be a part of this group for more then just a ticket for game here and there.
I know everyone is excited and wants to be there. For those that do not have memberships and don't want to wait to see how this shakes out they have started to open up the upper deck today at Olympic Stadium for public sales. Its $29. Even some first row seats are still available. Also it appears they are making you buy in pairs.

It's not about just the tickets for me and my friends.we've been travelling a lot with you guys to away games and want to join . or else we can join other group with no membership fees. We just met a lot of RPBs at these games and made friends.
Cheers
Is the timeline to have this whole thing sorted still tonight or sometime tomorrow? I've been tasked with getting tickets for about 10 people so I'm weary about hedging my bets if it's highly unlikely I'll be able to purchase tickets in our designated section.
We'll be having a new membership drive in the spring. Stay tuned. We'll be happy to have new applications!!! Membership involves being actively involved in support in some capacity and a membership fee of $25** (not much more than a BMO beer or two).

I guess my earlier point was more that it would be fantastic if the Impact clearly stated on their ticket site something along the lines of... The following sections are for Toronto support.
Simple. NYCFC did this, worked well.
Looks like road closures are being put into place around for the stadium for anyone driving.
The club advises supporters to get to the Olympic Stadium early to avoid traffic around Olympic Park and overcrowding at the stadium’s entrance, and to use public transit. Pie-IX Blvd. will be partially closed in the northbound direction, from Pierre-de-Coubertin Ave. to Mont-Royal Ave., preventing vehicles from turning right on Sherbrooke East St. Traffic disruptions are also scheduled on Pierre-de-Coubertin Ave., between Viau St. and Pie-IX Blvd., until the end of the season.

I am pretty sure TFC fans have bought tickets in section 149 and 151 already. If you are not affiliated with group, call ticketpro.ca and see if you can get tickets close to or in these sections.
IMFC is running away section ticket sales through the SGs on purpose due to previous crowd troubles. Several other teams do the same thing.
