Double Sold Tickets

[tutankamun]

 

So I am now sitting in the Pittodrie Bar having left before half time due to our seats being double booked.

 

Particularly gutting as I am a season ticket holder and have just spent a fortune following the Dons over in Groningen.

 

How can this possibly happen? Apparently something to do with these tickets that people print off (ours were club issued). Rest assured I will be taking this further with the club.

 

Absolutely raging, sometimes the organisation at this club is farcical. Notably they have proven time and time again that they cannot handle the big matches.

 

FUCK YOU ABERDEEN

Sorry to here that Pal !

Man the fuck up Tut and get a seat else where, or just stand in section Y, no point leaving a game like this, and yes, correctly follow this up with the club 2moro.

We were in RDU (1st time in ages), they faffed about trying to get us a seat. We walked over to where they said some seats were free but were there fuck.

 

Worst bit was a Weegie was in my seat...

 

Shambles.

try them for a free season ticket or dons top as compo otherwise you will go to the press

[StevieT1986]

On the lighter side some old boy took last seasons season ticket instead of this seasons one. I found it slightly hilarious

[Dynamo]

This happened to a guy I know at Riga game. Luckily for him it was south stand and there was spare seats on that occasion. Someone else had exactly same ticket.

Some cunt was in my seat.

Me.

I just got on with it.

I find it hard to believe that anyone in their right mind would just f*ck off to the pub cause there was a mix up with tickets. There were spare seats in the RDL, or you could have waited til half time and spoke to someone from AFC about it (ie, not a jobsworth steward).

 

More like we were 1-0 down and you couldn't stomach staying to look for a seat.

 

Boooooooo!

[TwoStars]

Spied so many spare seats as well.

Shocking they could be even put you in a corporate section or something.

Same. Sold out my hoop.

[Guest milne_afc]

The people who run AFC are complete spazmos. Milne, Yule, Fraser et al - spazmos

BTW we spoke to someone from the club.

Was the Pittodrie Bar busy during the game? What did you have to drink?

I wish you could get a beer at the match.

It was reasonably busy. A lot of guys in there that really should have been at the match, although truth be told they were probably more interested in getting pissed than watching the game.

 

Managed to get a seat though which was a win.

[BillyStarkDivinHeeder]

Some cunt was probably in my seat. I didn't bother checking, I just stood on section Y.

 

Some Spaniard came up to us in the South Stand with 35 minutes on the clock and asked where he should be sitting. He showed us his ticket and it read; Merkland Family Stand.

Just a hunch, but perhaps he worked in Aberdeen/is a student, and is not a Sociedad supporter. I work with a Spanish bloke in Aberdeen who's a Real Madrid fan.

[ChutneyLove]

Was probably just from somewhere South of Kincorth - they're all foreigners in my book.

[strachanmcgheegoal]

I wish the cunt in front of me in the Rdu had stayed in his seat. You don't need to stand up when you're in row 2. Wanker.

[strachanmcgheegoal]

I will cut the club some slack however. This 10 days notice of a massive game is pish. Massive respect to the guys that did the away legs. Which I guess is kind of your point tut.

FUCK YOU ABERDEEN

Why did you leave? Stand at the back.

[dave_min]

There were 2 free seats infront of me in the Y last night.

 

They're probably still free right now.

[BillyStarkDivinHeeder]

 

Just a hunch, but perhaps he worked in Aberdeen/is a student, and is not a Sociedad supporter. I work with a Spanish bloke in Aberdeen who's a Real Madrid fan.

 

The point I was trying to make is he had a Merkland ticket but the barcode had obviously allowed him access to the South Stand which I assume it shouldn't. You could probably swipe your Tesco club card at the turnstyle and get in. I don't care about Sociedad fans being in the home end.

 

My hunch was he is Petroleum engineer who has lived in Mannofield for 2 years and follows Valencia.

[dave_min]

Does he organise busses from Mannofield for Valencia home games?

 

As I'd be interested in visiting the Mestalla if he does.

[minijc]

My tickets hadn't even been printed off when I went to collect them, actually none of the "R" tickets were in the box to be dished out, the quine that was working asked "Is your last name Reid?" me "Yes" "Are you sure it is Reid and not something else" fuck me, it was tough work.

[Herouali0]

BillyStark - are you sure the ticket didn't say "enter via Merkland Road TS" ?

 

All South Stand tickets say this on them

There were a few folk jumping the wall from the merky, funny as fuck, easily 20+ that done it.

Bus will be leaving the Spires at 2am sharp a week on Saturday.

[strachanmcgheegoal]

A bit harsh on the daego boy that isn't it. Being taken through the tradesmans entrance by someone both disinterested and tutting at the same time.
