bobbydazzla Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 The current ticketing fiasco is the first real dropped bollock from the new regime, IMHO. Not just the lack of clarity on ticket sales, but the lack of communication. Takes 5 mins to write a "sorry for the delay etc" message and post it via the club socials so we have some insight into what's happening. At the moment no-one has a clue what membership actually means and how / when we'll be able to buy tickets. It's a shambles. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 The ticketing staff have never known what to do. It’s the same old thing year in year out. They leave things until the last minute, then scramble around. No forward planning or anything. No one seem to be in charge of them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 When you consider the demand at the moment, it's laughable that there could be more than 20,000 empty seats for these friendlies, and a missed opportunity all round. There was 41 and 47,000 for Atalanta/Bilbao last season. Add to that the utter pisstake that is memberships and an inability for fans to select their seats for games; not to mention the exploitation of customer loyalty by way of not specifying how memberships work until after they've been purchased. Whoever is in charge of ticketing policy honestly wants jettisoned. Joke decisions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
