Came up with the family the weekend of the first home game. bought three memberships and won him his wife and bairn tickets. went and stated after. Meh. I wouldn’t go again like. So my pal stopping a fan who bleeds black and white. Thick and thin follower and devoted Geordie from going to a match. If that isn’t punishment. Your head needs a wobble pal. Which part of the ground did your friend get tickets for? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fucking hold it there! Even worse last night. Same auld codgers who were moaning about how ridiculous it was that we were still queuing 5 minutes after kickoff briefly tapping their phone against the camera instead of the NFC reader and then gormlessly standing there wonder why the turnstile isn't open and completely ignoring the woman tapping on the glass telling them they need to put their phone on the place it tells you to and hold it there.

Stifler Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 I think we have to accept that the problem of getting tickets isn’t going to be resolved until we get an expansion or a new stadium. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a no from me ? I’ve had 2 ballot tickets in that same spot and sold them both to mates and found alternatives in the resale I know plenty of people don’t mind L7 but it’s not somewhere I’d pay my hard earned cash to go Its like watching Sensible Soccer on the Amiga in 1992 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrone Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 I think I'll only enter the ballots for categories that don't include level 7 now, obviously will reduce the chances of "winning" but I'd rather watch on TV or in Shearers than sit/stand up there Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 Level 7 is grim, a big part of going to a game is the atmosphere. You can still soak it up to a degree up there but it’s often extremely tame. Factor in the fact it’s really hard to see what’s going on on the pitch and it’s really only the odd game I can stomach up there Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jack j Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 The level 7 corner was class in the mid to late 2000s. Was like an away end every week. Mostly younger fans. This week I had 3 young lads in front of me in the standing bit making Snapchats. Nee singing from them though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Man Utd cup game will be a good gage. If we get an allocation of 7k for a midweek game, and it still doesn’t go to members, I can’t see any other games making it. We had an 8k allocation for Rangers for a midweek friendly match and that didn't even go to members so I reckon there's zero chance of any away tickets going to members sale any time soon.

My mum has S7, I've added her ticket to her Gmail account but it doesn't show in the phone. Yet when I login to her account on my phone season ticket shows. Club website says latest version of Android her phone is Android 8. Guess she'll need a newer phone to get it to work? I think it’s possibly too old an android system. It’s a 7 year old phone, a bit shit that she might need to buy a new phone to get into match, maybe the box office would have an alternative for her?

Very true about the Rangers match. Although looking back they went on sale seven weeks before the match. Here you’ll be looking at four weeks at best, more likely three. I think that does make a bit of a difference. That said, if you forced me to guess whether it makes members sale, I’d probably side with you and say no.

Was a real shame. I loved it up there. It really was something else, especially in the Promotion season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll see what we can do, she has managed on her current work phone but when she retires was going to use this one. Probably have to invest in something else.
