Away tickets

Has there been any suggestion where the pick up point is going to be? For instance have you seen the state of the queues at our ticket office on a matchday? Surely they arent expecting us to have to deal with that!
 
If as claimed by many on here they have been getting them and passing them on to their friends for the points why would they not continue to do that whether points are available or not.
They would not remain in my circle of friends for long if they were that shallow.
I understand it, if it was a collection match due to the ID checks

People do their own thing but I would have thought the ID checks would start at Bournemouth. Maybe not though.
 
Certainly the United lads I know who do aways all apply for tickets in the ballot whether they intend going or not. Then sort out among themselves who is going based on however many they have got from the ballot between them.
So nothing changes then, except a few mard arse kids get first dibs. Dibs they won't touch with a barge pole when we draw Brighton away in the league cup.
 
I agree with what you say , but as the allocation is only something like a 1000 tickets it wouldn’t surprise me if they did make it collection in destination. By the time you split the tickets up into the different groups there won’t be many left for points holders , that’s why I think it will be subject to checks.

Nothing would surprise me. You're probably right.

I'll be giving it a miss if it's collection for Bournemouth, it's tight enough by train as it is.
Guess it'll be an extra ticket available for those not going by train.

Get the feeling the loyalty points holding fans who do all their aways via train aren't gonna be best served by these changes.

The hassle of getting tickets and then getting the money
 
For the sake of clarity, why hasn't the club put out a statement detailing exactly where the 5% allocation for 18-25 year olds is coming from?

City Matters is classic Chinese Whispers. What have they got to hide?

The most shocking thing is the City Matters rep spreading false rumor about people buying points for Shaktar away when it was clear they would not be awarded for unused tickets, and that the rep had no idea why the points system was introduced in the first place.

If they expect people to drive 5 hours without knowing if there ticket will actually be there then that will be a disgrace.

Have the club indicated how to cancel if selected? Also as there is no photo ID required anyone can collect anyway, unless the club is planning ID checks and has deliberately not told us?

More than anything else it proves he deals in myths, half truths and innuendo.

I know someone who bought a ticket for Shaktar away, he thought he’d get the points. He didn’t!
If our rep was in touch with away fans he’d actually know what was going on.

I am not sure what will happen with the ID checks but the Club shouldn’t need a lot of time to check people against their tickets in the queue for away games. I’m not a big fan of the ID checks and I am just saying what a well run Club / Business should be able to do to back up its commitments.

The club had not announced ID checks though has it?

Celtic did take a lot of time. Appreciate you're talking about in the queue, where did this come from? Thought it was collect at a designated point. Refer you to Celtic. If not, do you think the club will subject their staff to the abuse they would receive asking for ID in the queue to enter the ground, bearing in mind if the ID doesn't match, the person being checked wouldn't get in ?
You wouldn't even be able to pay showsec enough to put staff in to do that job.

I was in the queue at Celtic mate. We need clarity from the Club on the plans.
