Have anyone else's tickets got some strange "missing bits" from the barcode? It's like it on both tickets but not seen that before!

Our 2 STs turned up this morning, one was fine but the other had some "missing bits", is that okay?

Its by the train station on the side furthest away from the stadium. You can park at the Ricoh in the day but it costs and you'll be paying Wasps. Shopping centre is normally 5 hours on non match days, not sure if they'll have any restrictions in place.

Thanks. Can't walk as far as the Ricoh any more so will have to take the car down. Makes nonsense of the whole idea of going on the coach because it is nice and cheap if we then have to pay to park at the Ricoh. There must have been other places in that area which can provide free car parking (used to have Car Park C for away games didn't they).

Phoned up this morning to find out exactly where the coach picks up near the Ricoh. Know where it is now, but told that unfortunately no designated car parking, just have to take your chance parking on the roads around the Ricoh or in the Ricoh car parks ( provided Wasps haven't got a home game that day). Limited parking in Arena shopping area (couple of hours or whatever) as well.
Told them we will probably have to cancel our parking season tickets now as we can't physically walk there to pick up the coach. They have had a few other people also asking about parking for the coaches, so they might look at the situation, but not before next week. So will have to miss this Saturday's game then, which we are gutted about.

Yes, coaches stop at the Ricoh and in town.

Instead of parking at the Ricoh all day might be easier to get a bus into town and get the coach from there. Pretty much every route in the city goes to Pool Meadow doesn't it?

But when you jump off the bus at 5.45 with 3 points and a win it will seem a lot brighter!

True, but when you are 71 you can't do much jumping off the bus!

So your issue is that the parking isn’t nice enough? Why do you care? You’ll spend maybe two minutes there total.

Anyone else still to receive their season ticket? One missing here and apparently the fallback is a paper replacement requested via the ticket office. Just emailed them to do this as post usually arrives in the afternoon here by which time worried it’ll be too late to get that organised on a Friday. And not risking waiting till Saturday.

Worse things happen obviously but it’s a bit annoying that tickets ordered together are despatched so differently and that the club can’t basically get them to fans in time

Happens every year, you’d have thought they’d be on at ticketmaster by now.

I’ve got a ticket fast without a barcode and been told try and if they don’t let you in come to the ticket office for a replacement. I just want a working ticket. Appreciate the club can do little here but next contract we do for ticketing I hope they sort reduction in costs (for the club) if basic errors like this happen.

Back from a short break on the coast. Season ticket on floor (with barcode - I think!) Jobello to tear a hole in their left back's pants. Come on City!

All sorts of rumours going round that it might be Prologis Park, Christ the King or Welsh Rugby Club, all of which had parking/or just about walkable for us. Just assumed arrangements had been made to allow cars to park (like Car Park C for away matches at the Ricoh and the Mercers Arms when we were at Highfield Road etc.etc.)
Believe me, when you have been fans for as long as we have but get into your seventies, all of these things become mega important. For the first time for 55 years (apart from Northampton) we have decided not to go, but the coach travel swung it for us and we decided to give it a go. But maybe not after all.

There will be no enforcement in place, just park on the street by cov Welsh and walk over?

Doubt it would be Car Park C as Wasps own that, don't they?

would it be possible to go on one of the other coaches? Dhillions for example. Maybe you could leave the car outside, I believe there is some parking there.

Sorry, that was just an example of free car parking which had been available when fans were going on the coaches previously. Realise that particular place wouldn't be an option now for obvious reasons.

Can you find a single example of this happening in Cov? You’d be stupid to choose a car park with security and cameras to steal from over one on the street.

it's a brewery on the estate at the back of the Ricoh which are running a bus, it's on an industrial unit so there's parking outside though it may be limited. Might be worth looking in to.

Just in case it's useful for anyone yet to receive their season ticket. Advised by the ticket office that you need to go in to get a paper ticket for the game tomorrow. The ticket office closes at 4.30 on Friday and isn't open Saturdays, so unless the postman tuns up with the ticket today, it'll be a mad dash down to the Butts after finishing work at 4pm. Ticket office contact details if you need them - ticketoffice@ccfc.co.uk and 02476 992335. I feel for the ticket office staff having to manage this when it shouldn't really be happening.

Just before anyone panics and thinks you have to make it to the Butts today you can also sort it out at St Andrews tomorrow:
Any collections and queries will be dealt with at the Ticket Collection Desk in the Kop Stand Reception, from 12:30pm onwards.
Click to expand...
That's purely for collections and queries so you won't be queuing with people trying to buy tickets.

Thanks - apologies if I caused anyone to panic. We weren’t advised there was the option at St Andrews tomorrow so I wasn’t aware of it. Good to know it’s there if we can’t get things sorted today
