Blackpool Tickets

[law74]

& if they did they will have obtaine it on someone elses points, just the same as other people will have obtained tickets on mates cards.
I know of two members of my club that were regular ST holders at MR that have missed out on tickets for this game through the supporters club, but hey why let the facts get in the way of a misconcived rant.

not misconceived at all
my daughter also had a seasonticket at MR so what's your point!
she's had one since she was 8, has enough points for tickets everywhere except here it seems
but as i said, i'm sure there's a few deserving souls sat on 2500 points with a ticket

Yes there will be people there with 2500 or even less points, but how many of them will have the tickets in their own names?
What is the difference in a suporters club ordering say 15 tickets for the 15 members that wish to attend a game using the top 15 loyalty points that they have to a group of independant blues using the cards with the top points to obtain tickets?
Or Blues with the required number of points that cant attend for whatever reason ordering a ticket to keep their points up and then selling on the ticket to a mate for cost price?

As i do none of the three above your points are irrelevant
i get tickets for me, my daughter and wife for away games
for this one it was clear from the off that wifey would miss out with 4200 points
but to explain yet again to my daughter that she has missed out because the 'loyal' members of the supporters club has her ticket is fine in your book

The worst thing was that they started selling them before 9am this morning at the ground, so those people who couldn't get down there and were ringing up stood no chance!
I got down there bang on 9 and all the windows were open with ppl at them at.

They sold out at 9.02 and when I asked the security guard what time they opened at he said 'about half 8'.

Really infuriating how this works. Why the fuck was the office open earlier than 9.

A bloke who I presumed was a supervisor came out and said they only opened at 9, which is bullshit cos I was there at 9am and should have seen the ticket office open. It was in full swing at 9am.
Apparently a few ppl had turned up early and started to que, so they probably opened it up for them. Doesn't make it right though as the phone sales wouldn't have started til 9

Were all fans ! I just think that there are times when you think enough is enough with prices. I have enough loyalty points for most games but never go to the swamp game due to price. Blackpool is pretty much the same at £40 a pop especially for a dump of a ground like that. Even we seem to be getting in on the act this year with crazy prices.

reading other threads on here you would think that 10,000 would buy tickets for this one if available, yet for most of our away matches you dont need loyalty points. Why is Blackpool such a priority for people when you could probably pick up a ticket without any loyalty points for Wolves 2 weeks later.
