Guest Roger Kint Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 They haven't got a system in place to set up DD over the phone? Jesus wept. Dont you still have to sign it regardless of what you do over the phone? I did with AA and another DD i set up on the phone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Not from personal experience, no. Just moved into a new apartment and set all of my utilities up on DD over the phone, without ever having to sign anything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

morpeth mag Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Got my move from SJH to East Stand Block C. Had similar problems to everyone on here - they've lost my forms twice. finally got the seats reserved on Wednesday with the DD forms to be sent out first class that day. When they didn't arrive this morning I took no chances and went to SJP and filled the forms in there after a 45 min queue. Delighted with the end result though.

I wonder what ever happened to the dodgy keeper bloke? dunno but theres a slow talker behind me who talks just about the most bollocks i've ever heard inside a football ground. not only does his voice grate on you but the double wammy of talking shit aswell is just too much.

GM Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 I've been havering over getting a ticket lately. My biggest issue is I'd want somewhere I can sit comfortably before I committed to a ST - long legs are not generally catered for in most parts of the ground. Nae chance in the Gallowgate really.

Guest toonlass Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 Just phone them up and tell them that you have muckle long legs and need to have a front row seat somewhere. They should sort you out with one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 I should fecking hope so like! I know the box office tend to be a bunch of braindead morons, but surely if you simply phoned them up and explained the fact that you're a giant they'd be able to advise you on good places to sit. The front row obviously has loads of legroom, but the view isn't the greatest when the play is down the other end. I loved it for the few years I sat front row Gallowgate though, felt really close to the game and it was magic when Shearer scored the record-breaking goal and celebrated right in front of us, etc. Pros and cons everywhere, but for comfort you'd not do too much better. Great for getting in/out of the ground quickly as well, should you ever need to. I assume there are quite a few areas of the ground that do provide extra legroom though, you might not necessarily need to sit right at the front. Front row of tiers, bits that separate one area from another, etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Front row of tiers, bits that separate one area from another, etc. The best two seats I've had as a non-ST holder have been in the SJH west corner way back under Roeder when Blackburn came and beat us (L4A I think), and then also was pretty good right up the back at the top of the NE corner last season when I had a seat at the top of the stairs so could stretch my legs. I suppose the other option could just be to turn up in a wheelchair. They seem to get good seats with a lot of legroom. Looks like I'm gonna do it then. I'd thought about sharing a ST with someone at first but screw it...if I can get one with legroom I may just do it. It'll be good to finally do what I should have done a decade ago.

Go for it, in fact, say you spoke to Simon Esland (the head of customer operations) and he said that they would sort you out with a seat with good legroom. Blag yourself a canny seat.

Rich Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 They shouldn't make it difficult really, hopefully you'll get someone who is slightly arsed about customer service. If I wasn't working Saturdays I'd definitely be getting a ST again, especially with the current pricing plan, very jealous of all those who are getting sorted out at the minute.
