SteV Posted December 3 Share Posted December 3 4 hours ago, JP said: Yes, but wasn't sure who to @ to get the wheels going? All I would say about going public via social media is be prepared for some negative responses. The majority of people will be supportive, going off the facts you’ve stated here, but you’re also going to get ‘you knew what the rules were, no sympathy’ (and probably worse). Not saying you should let that stop you from doing it if you think it’s the right thing, but just be wary not to end up wasting your time becoming embroiled in pointless online arguments with inconsequential people.

El Prontonise Posted December 3 Share Posted December 3 (edited) The ability to not be able to transfer tickets (legitimate) or put them up for resale like ST holders can if something comes up last minute is an absolute disgrace.

JP Posted December 3 Share Posted December 3 Since had a response from NUFC Trust who are in firm agreement with the stance taken by the club being too firm. Formal complaint lodged via email and stage 2 of their complaints procedure, with board members at the trust cc'd in and giving their backing to us. Let's hope it gets a resolution.

You might want to read this just out today. Quite a bit on Home & Away ticket issues and punishments.

patrone Posted December 4 Share Posted December 4 So its would appear we have gone from a 1-3 chance to over a 1-7 in th ballots now (on average) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted December 4 Share Posted December 4 Always seemed a fair estimate that your chances are about half of what they were last season. A 1 in 5 chance, for example, can lead to very long losing streaks. As much as it allows me to go to every game, it wasn’t fair to bring general sale back.

patrone Posted December 4 Share Posted December 4 Oh it suits me just great this "new" way, but obviously there's a load that it doesn't Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted December 4 Share Posted December 4 I guess the justification was listening to the fans who wanted it, but it’s clearly unfair. Not that absolute fairness is the only criteria I guess. You might want to allow some advantage to the people who are prepared to put effort into the general sale.

SteV Posted December 4 Share Posted December 4 (edited) Ultimately demand is outstripping supply to such a degree that they’re pretty much in a position where they can’t win whatever they do. Not to say they shouldn’t keep taking feedback, and continue to look to tweak things based on that, but it’s never going to be enough.

bobbydazzla Posted December 4 Share Posted December 4 (edited) It’s not fair to let thousands of miserable old codgers cling on to season tickets because they’d prefer to boo & hiss at Sean Longstaff than go shopping with their wives Moral of the story: life’s not fair Edited December 4 by bobbydazzla Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JP Posted December 5 Share Posted December 5 My mates ticket got resold as expected (more touting than we're guilty of imo ) Also lovely to see several Liverpool fans in Gallowgate block V - I'm sure they all attended using the correctly named ticket Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sima Posted December 5 Share Posted December 5 I saw four young lasses waving a flag on the Gallowgate upper concourse with half and half scarves. Game's gone. He thought while pouching his salt and pepper chips. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JP Posted December 11 Share Posted December 11 Club have resumed my mates membership for the season. No sign of refund on the lost tickets but we've had some form of backtrack and recognition the punishment was top heavy. So, West Ham, Brentford and Liverpool tickets cancelled no refund. But membership still valid now for the rest of the season. Not sure where he would stand on Carabao cup history should we make the final, dare say he wouldn't fall under the 100% purchase criteria.
