Especially seeing as a fuck load of tickets have already been sold. Well they’re doing it to wind us up and make the wait longer as previously stated. They won’t be able to actually buy tickets without an account and booking history. The club will be releasing tickets in increments. Keep. The. Heid. Link to comment

AndrewC Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 I've got all the way in, logged in, highlighted a seat, clicked "Adult", and the message I'm getting is "This seat is not available for the chosen price type". That's off an iphone. Link to comment

I find that as an incredible as the sales. If it turns out that we've fucked up and should've got logged in earlier, and all these tickets have been sold to genuine Dons fans, then I hold my hands up - we should've bought the tickets earlier and not waited to get tickets for friends who wanted to go - but when have we ever sold that many tickets that quickly for a cup final? As I've said I know lots of regulars who haven't managed to buy tickets - are you not in any way curious about what might've happened otherwise? Do we really have that many part time (for want of a better term) fans who are happy to stump up £40 a ticket for this match? 1 Link to comment

On the other hand when I phoned the ticket office to ask about getting a ticket for my son (I have over 200 points but he doesn't) I was told id have to wait until 5.00pm but not to worry because there would be more than enough tickets to go round.

Oban Red Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 Currently there are about 24 tickets showing as available, but it will not allow you to put them in your basket. However, they still think they are causing havock, as there are a few thousand on of them blocking it again. I think it's funny! How could you actually be arsed 🤣🤣 Link to comment
Roberto Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 Just do it tomorrow. Shithousery is quite amusing but club fucked up there. Should have been made to log in with DonsID... simple. But won't lose sleep about it. 2 Link to comment

wanderingscotty Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 We sold 13k back in 2018 in the first day and that was before a release to supports with >80 LP. Going from 200 LP to any account holder has caught a few folk off guard. 1 Link to comment

But I would point out that the thread on follow follow suggesting they clog up the site was started at 8.00pm, at least an hour after it appeared the tickets were sold out. 1 Link to comment

Dunty Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 Wind up or not, there's lots of Aberdeen fans who think it's sold out. All it takes is the club to post a tweet saying XXX amount sold, and that all sections are now on sale and to be patient. It's almost as if they like having fans moaning at them. 1 Link to comment

DandyWarhol Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 To be honest I'm consoling myself with the fact that I've saved money and avoided the hassle of a trek to Glasgow on the 17th of fucking December! If it was just a case of my group being latchy and waiting too long to get tickets then as I said it's a fair cop and lesson learned for the future. But I'm amazed at the amount of regulars I know who haven't got tickets - in fact it's a minority of the dons fans I know who have managed to get so far. I've never known anything like that for a cup final before. Guess we'll just have to wait and see what the club have to say tomorrow. 2 Link to comment

I'm in the queue again on my laptop now, hoping that will produce a better result. Seems a bit farcical, being honest. Link to comment

Don Fonte Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 If it is the huns logging on and clogging things up. Cheers for increasing the anticipated demand and ensuring we sell out quickly. Whilst you're looking in huns... Durrant was shit, as was his physio. Richard Gough snaked bairns. Your old club are dead. 4 Link to comment
wanderingscotty Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 Dons fans, I understand that from the tweets and replies, we’ve a lot of frustrated Dandies posting about ViaPlay Cup Final tickets. We have, at the moment, sold out our INITIAL allocation. We have been given up to 19,500 tickets - the first lot of circa 17,000 have gone almost immediately. The ticket office set a threshold at 200 points to buy one ticket each then, this afternoon at 5pm, the remainder went on full general sale. Although it was for for the right reasons, in hindsight, this was an error on our part. We should’ve had a second sales period for lesser points before - I.e. 100-199, before full general sale, ensuring there was more control. That’s a lesson we’ll learn. I take responsibility for that and I am very sorry to those who are currently feeling frustrated. The good news is that we are still expecting another approx 2500 tickets and we will ensure, when we get them, that priority is given to season ticket holders / higher point holders. If you have so far missed out on tickets and want to go - please email Ticketoffice@afc.co.uk and the team there will look to sort you out as soon as we receive the additional batch through (we’re putting pressure on SPFL to have these to us asap). This does bring into sharp focus our plea to have been given the opportunity to sell out Hampden on a 50/50 split. Given we’ve sold 17,000 tickets in just a few short days, I think it’s fair to say there is a high probability we could’ve sold out a 50% share had we been given the chance. 1 Link to comment

DandyWarhol Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 Fair play to Burrows - I've given him a bit of stick but that's a decent statement explaining things. Link to comment
