Block 5 Posted 1 February, 2010 Share Posted 1 February, 2010 Don't bother, they're all sold out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dune Posted 1 February, 2010 Share Posted 1 February, 2010 I'm not being funny but anyone who queues up is a bit of a spazza. What's the point when all you have to do is ring a freephone number, pay with a debit card, and get the tickets delivered free of charge. In any case they won't sell out quickly. They never have done for local derbies. Even when we played the Skates at the Dell during Merringtons tenure tickets went to general sale. I'm not even going to bother til they go on sale unlinked. If I get a ticket I get one, if i don't I don't, but the chances are i'll get a ticket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The demand will be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alain Perrin Posted 1 February, 2010 Share Posted 1 February, 2010 Myself and my most people I know will be there at 3am. Better safe than sorry. Suggest we meet you there..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not suggesting we won't sell out, merely that it'll take time. I base this purely on past precedents. Lots of older fans won't go, and many families won't go.

docker-p Posted 1 February, 2010 Share Posted 1 February, 2010 It won't sell out. Stupid ticketing arrangement will take care of that. As I've said before on other posts, theey should have given season ticket holders the chance to buy two tickets. As has been said older fans and families won't go, and many prople who would love to go have never got themselves on the data base due to others buying the tickets.

for_heaven's_Saint Posted 1 February, 2010 Share Posted 1 February, 2010 i got 2 x unlinked tickets for Pompey online, just using my customer number, im not a season ticket holder either Hmmm yes I did think people might be able to do this. I think by buying online it is pretty easy to get around the imposed restrictions. For example I already have a ticket, as I'm a season ticket holder, but it'd probably let me by another one on unlinked sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armitage Shanks Posted 1 February, 2010 Share Posted 1 February, 2010 i got 2 x unlinked tickets for Pompey online, just using my customer number, im not a season ticket holder either You got your tickets yet ? If not, then I doubt you will. Spoke to the ticket office today and they said that the rules are being followed strictly and anyone who did somehow manage to get a ticket as you have described, they won't be sent out. I've tried as have several mates using their customer numbers and the online system won't allow it. The club are concerned that if pompey fans get in amongst the home fans there will be trouble and the club could have to play games behind closed doors. Therefore ticket rules are being adhered to.

Julian H. Cope Posted 1 February, 2010 Share Posted 1 February, 2010 I'm already in the queue. It reminds me of the days when I queued to Return Of The Jedi. I think it's disgusting that they're giving tickets to people on the database. I did not know the club had so many paedophile fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.comsaint Posted 1 February, 2010 Share Posted 1 February, 2010 Disown him! He's sitting in the Itchen just behind the player's dug-outs for the game. As pay-back - I'm going to find him & inform the stewards that he's a Pompey season ticket holder. That will serve the little s*@t right! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sotonjoe Posted 1 February, 2010 Share Posted 1 February, 2010 It will sell out, but not on thursday! As long as you're prepared to queue for an hour or so you will get tickets at any point during the day. The phone 'seems' easier but not if they don't have enough lines etc. Still, being a season ticket holder now ... it's not my worry anyway. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either £22(behind goal or wings) or £25(centre) for an adult and they really want you to go to the Walsall game but it is at the discretion of the ticket office staff.

Red And White Barmy Army Posted 1 February, 2010 Share Posted 1 February, 2010 Guys can I have some help please? I live a few hours away from Southampton now and want tickets for this game more than a fat man wants cake. I can't make the Walsall game but could do another when I'm back in red and white land. But it says on the OS that I can only do this by visiting the ticket office. Have I got this right? Surely there must be a system which will enable me and other saints fans from further afield to get tickets without making the long trip just to pick up a couple of tickets. If not, I'm not going to risk not going to the game, it'll just leave 2 empty seats at the Walsall game (and a bigger whole in my bank account!).

Just checked and it's "If supporters cannot make the Walsall game, other fixtures can be chosen at the discretion of each supporter." I think we are both right but one of us is more right than the other. Either way it could have been clearer I reckon plus if you are already on the db that imho should have been sufficient. If all goes well the Warsaw game will be well attended anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Stevo I did just this last week for my wife's details. I just sent an email to tickets@saintsfc.co.uk and got a reply the same day. In fact they actually phoned me up to discuss it so they got the details correct. I was very impresed. The girl who sorted it was called April. Very helpful. HOWEVER, the OS clearly says that this facility will not be available online from Thursday so the only way to get your tickets from this Thursday is either in person or via the phone....until general sale to database starting on 10th Feb.

samoakley Posted 2 February, 2010 Share Posted 2 February, 2010 Im going to see how many are left or sold by the end of thursday before i decied to buy linked tickets, as i dont wanna splash out on 2 games at once as i cant really afford to, even though il be going to the HTFC game i want to buy it closer the time, but will do if i have to to get a ticket for this game but if i do buy 2 tickets just means the missus wont be getting much on v day.
