TICKETS (10 Viewers)

[SBT]

Just always comes off like we've been caught by surprise. Middlesborough had their ticket info out within minutes of the result yesterday, we give the impression we hadn't planned for it and had to throw something together this morning

In fairness, who could possibly have predicted this? Give Doug and Dave a break.

Corporate boxes £1,200 inc VAT. That’s not very nice. Was only £7,200 for the season.

I've opted out of mine out of principle. I expected a significant hike but it's appalling by the club to increase it to that level. Not even parking included either. Terrible way to treat some of your highest paying customers.

Don't buy tickets using their supporter number. Just pick different quantity depending on who's going with me that game if that makes sense?

If I want to buy him a ticket he needs to give me his supporter number?

think that's how it works. I used to do it for my Dad and I could assign a seat to him from my account

no idea, but there's people posting on twitter saying they've got 600+ points but no season tickets. As with the Premier thing the number of people with high points but no season ticket must be pretty small. A bit of thought put into it and those groups could have been included

It's always the case that season ticket holders get priority though?

Why wouldn't you have one? If somebody does away days only what do they expect?

Doesn't help that we have militant SAG and police restrictions. That will be part of the reason it took so long.

Yes you do. That is the same as me, I normally pay at the gate or get my friend to get me tickets using her supporter number. Luckily my son's supporter number is still valid so I can try and get us 1 each tomorrow.

Might be a stupid question and may have missed some info so apologies, but if I have chosen to 'add to card' but also brought two additional seats on top of our ST's, what will happen to those tickets?

the "extra" ones will be emailed to you - just seen club tweet about this

Do they fit 12 people?

£100 a seat in a box for a game of this size is common I'd imagine?

 

[Grendel]

As they are allowing two tickets for every season ticket holder it’s going to be a mad scramble tomorrow - doubt there will be more than 6,000 left

I should have been more eagle-eyed. Thanks mate

 

[hill83]

help please - i can see my ticket showing which i have added to basket but can't see one for my son who is set up as a member in my network. How can I add his ticket to my basket?

You need to register an account using their supporter number and buy it through that account. Pretty sure you can use the same email address. If not create a new one.

How do I purchase my kids tickets online at same time as my own? (We're all STH)

Not really. A lot of clubs include cup games within their corporate box packages.

In the context of what I pay per season, to demand another £1200 for one game without any incentive whatsoever is shocking.

Should get a PDF emailed to you that you can print off?

 

[hill83]

Can I just say, ticketmaster is SHITE.
Even simple things like when auto filling card details it crashes before you can put the 3 digit code in.

 

[skyblueheaven]

Will our season tickets be activated for Sunday or will we have to print off paper copies? Any advice will be appreciated. Pusb

 

[hill83]

Pretty easy really just logged in and added to card

It’s when you’ve got mates and family to go with it gets tricky m8

(sorry)

Yeah, I guess I was trying to compare to say Wembley but I gather the boxes offer no food and beverages for that £1200. They are £3396 for the play offs at Wembley in 2018 but that including 3 course meal and beverages.

Are you literally paying for the box alone?

 

[Nick]

Madness.

Wonder how many will be non ST holders pissed off when they get to the front?

 

[djr8369]

Trying to book but can’t see how to buy for linked accounts so I can get the family seated together in ST seats?

You add them to basket and then "assign them"

 

[pusbccfc]

Sent a video from a mate. I reckon there's literally thousands queuing at the Ricoh now in the rain.

Have these people not heard of the internet or something?

The video I've been sent shows even more than that. It's now queuing round by the casino!

My mate was down there as he’s a technophobe, I sorted his out for him and his lad. Registered their accounts etc. My dad wouldn’t have a clue for example.

There might be reasons I am unaware of, but always blown my mind how people will queue at a ticket office rather than click a few buttons online

 

[chiefdave]

I know we've only got a couple of staff in the ticket office but hopefully the club have sent one of the office staff to the stadium or grabbed someone that works at the Arena to go down the queue telling people its season ticket holders only

 

[pusbccfc]

Oh definitely but I bet loads in that queue would have no problem buying online.

Yes, just the box. We’ve also come to the same decision and moving to Club Coventry at £60 per head.

Add to card

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

There might be reasons I am unaware of, but always blown my mind how people will queue at a ticket office rather than click a few buttons online

Or show people how to do it on their smart phones

It's through my business so yeah I don't split with anyone. Difference is Wembley is Wembley. I wouldn't really grumble at that and the fact they offer 3 courses and beverages the package on the face of it doesn't actually sound all that unreasonable .

When factoring in food, drinks, parking etc. the cost would've likely risen to around £1800.
