Tried purchasing tickets for the Bradford City match - sadly no success (but just as well, I suppose).
Sent this e-mail to ticketmaster and the club:
"I HAVE TRIED, WITHOUT SUCCESS, FOR THE PAST 2 DAYS TO GET A TICKET FOR MYSELF AND MY CARER FOR THE MATCH AT BRADFORD CITY. THE WEBPAGE IS USELESS AS, WHILE SHOWING AN OPTION FOR PURCHASING A WHEELCHAIR SPACE, DOESN'T LET YOU DO IT. TRY CALLING THE RIP OFF PRICED 0844 NUMBER FOR TICKET PURCHASES AND THE ON-LINE SELLERS ARE UNABLE TO ALLOW A WHEELCHAIR BAY PURCHASE; THE NUMBER GIVEN TO TRY BY THE AGENT OF 02476 991987 AND THE OPTION FOR TICKET PURCHASE LOOPS BACK TO THE O844 NUMBER. TRY THE OPTIONS FOR RETAIL AND GENERAL ENQUIRIES AND NO-ONE ANSWERS. WHAT A WAY TO TREAT US DISABLED SUPPORTERS - AND I CAN'T GET TO THE SHOP TO BUY IN PERSON AS I LIVE IN WIGAN.
I TRIED CALLING BRADFORD CITY BUT THEY CAN'T LET ME PURCHASE AWAY END TICKETS AND HAVE SUGGESTED I PAY ON THE GATE - BUT WITHOUT A GUARRANTEE OF A TICKET I CAN'T AFFORD TO RISK TRAVELLING ON THE OFF CHANCE.
PLEASE PASS ON A BIG THANK YOU TO WHOEVER HAS COME UP WITH THIS WAY FOR OUT OF TOWN DISABLED SUPPORTERS TO PURCHASE TICKETS - I'M ALREADY A 2ND CLASS CITIZEN IN A WHEELCHAIR, YOU LOT MAKE ME OUT TO BE 3RD CLASS, UNWELCOME AND TOO MUCH TROUBLE. I HOPE WHEN YOU GET OLDER THAT YOU ARE NOT TREATED IN THIS MANNER - YOU SHOULD HANG YOUR HEADS IN SHAME (BUT I DOUBT YOU WILL)."
I'm posting on here in case anyone from the club view it as I doubt I'll get a reply. So, if this is how it's to be then I'll not be able to get to the NW matches any more.
