Bamber Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Why is it so hard to buy a ticket for a known game? yes yes I know JT testimonial but about 10 days ago I went to get a ticket for the 1st euro game, wanted to buy a JL ticket at the same time and they weren't on sale, so now they are and I've now made plans to do something else - summer hols you do the family thing si Im off away that weekend before the season restarts today collect 2nd euro ticket - how about the Dundee united ticket? not being released by Dundee united until the 27th - yes 6 days before the match - will be absolute chaos in the ticket office for sure. If I had a friend over from the states in October I cant even buy a home ticket yet As a comparison if I wanted to see Sarah Millican at HMT on the 20th August I can book now - Oh that's 20 Aug 2016 btw Does Scottish football actually want business or not??

Pudgie Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 They can only sell tickets so far in advance. Fixture changes are very common and there's already a massive fuss when the TV games are announced as it is. Millican won't be moved because she's playing in Europe a couple of days before hand and she'll be knackered. 1 Link to comment

What will it be you reckon? supporters and B&G till Tuesday lunch time and ST holder till Thursday then open on Thursday? mind you with 1000 B&G now don't see many tickets after Wednesday morning on that basis!

Teb0wing Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Was told there are no more season ticket holder only sale windows. All down to loyalty points now. Link to comment
robbojunior Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Sarah Millican aside, he makes a good point.Fixtures being fucked around for TV at only a week or two's notice is a joke. Fuck TV, fuck Sky, fuck Neil Doncaster, fuck Sevco. 1 Link to comment

Mr John Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Same thing happened to me and a mate who was coming over from Dublin. They shifted the Motherwell game to a Friday night, totally goosed our weekend plans. Does anyone even like that fixture??? Pisses me off. Friday is for drinking after work, Saturday is Football. Jumpers for posts, next goal wins, etc. Link to comment
dave_min Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 I've really enjoyed the Friday night games. Link to comment
Clydeside_Sheep Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 They make things hard for us, because that typically means its easy for themselves. Years ago, the AFC ticket office suddenly claimed they didnt have my details on record (seemed to have lost them) and as such I couldnt buy tickets from them. (Had to have previous order history for certain games, like OF games). Losing patience I asked about how to go about getting my details back on to the system. "Buy a ticket" I was told. I mean FFS.

tommo1903 Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Any word when tv fixtures will be announced for September. Wanting to book train tickets for tynecastle in advance if possible. Link to comment
Foster14 Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Any word when tv fixtures will be announced for September. Wanting to book train tickets for tynecastle in advance if possible. Same, and it looks like quite a likely contender for a TV game. Between that and the Lanarkshire derby probably. Link to comment
ben_1903 Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Sarah Milican has made a career out of the same (not funny) joke about being fat and divorced. So..fair play to her for making easy cash, but she's annoying as hell and not funny. Link to comment
Foster14 Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Also in the same bracket of 'comedians' is thon Aussie cunt who's made a career out of 'having a wooden leg'. 2 unfunny cunts. Adam Hills is a great satirist! Link to comment
The Boofon Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Adam Hills is a great satirist!Agreed. Needs to bin the two unfunny ones on The Last Leg though. Link to comment
