Seasoncards to be sent out. Paper tkts possible for Watford

One summer, in the foreseeable future, we'll get round to actually getting season tickets out in time for the start of the season. Not sure why it's such a chore to be honest though. Would have thought that 90% of season ticket holders renew for the same seats. Surely reprint all season tickets at the end of the season. Immediately send those that confirm the same seats, change those that are moving on their systems and send those, chuck away the ones that have cancelled, and then print any new seasoncard holders.

Or is this what actually happens? I'm no expert, but this seems the most logical way of doing things. Would have thought that the only thing slowing this down is the other tat they include in the packs every year. Pretty sure one year they were delayed because they ran out of shoelaces, or wristbands or something!

I'm in the same boat as you, no seasoncard and no paper ticket as of yet. I haven't complained, i was also in that queue outside maine road for 99 final tickets, i was about 11 and camped out overnight with my dad to ensure we got tickets but the queueing for that is no comparison to this situation. It's entirely reasonable to expect to have a ticket in some form 2 days before the game when you've paid for it 3 months beforehand. I've made plans to go out early doors on Sunday as i'm sure many others have, that's now all going to fall to pieces if i'm forced to go to the ticket office probably a few hours before the game and queue for a ticket i should of received weeks ago. It's not the end of the world by any means but it's a massive inconvenience we're all going to have to endure through no fault of our own. People have every right to be pissed off at that. Just because we're all fans of the club it doesn't mean the club shouldn't be criticised when it's deserved, we'd be Liverpool fans if that were the case. Sadly, in this instance the criticism is most definitely deserved. With a good number not receiving cards or replacements, others receiving duplicate cards and the very unfortunate few being told days before the first game that their seat that they've paid for 3 months ago doesn't actually exist, it's undeniably been a complete shambles all around.

The Gillingham game at Wembley in 99 was the 1 where some genius decided to allow anyone with a season ticket to queue for tickets from the first day of sale,it was basically 1 big free for all,whoever made that decision makes you wonder what kind of experience they previously had,that same weekend Bolton were at Wembley for their play off game...all their tickets were sold online,its always been poorly managed,up until the Stoke game in 2011 they were allowing people to queue overnight,it was like the Internet had just been invented,this chaos will continue every summer until professionals are appointed
 
Sorry but people are entitled to be unhappy and to complain over not having a ticket they bought and paid for 3 months ago. If you ordered something from someone other than City you'd be shouting from the rooftops. I'm no fan or the Evening News and I wouldn't go running to them but people are more than entitled to complain about the club not sorting this out. My card still hasn't arrived and to be sure of a paper ticket I made a 200 mile round trip yesterday using the EDS game as an excuse to convince the missus (She's got her card!) it was the right thing to do.
 
My mate received his this morning and i received an email saying it's to be delivered today. Hopefully everybody else will be getting theirs today too.

Nobody doubts people have a right to complain.

It is usual custom and courtesy though to complain to the people you are dealing with ie the club not run squealing to the press.

Why not give the supplier of the goods (in this case City and cards) the opportunity to sort the matter out
