Totally agree. Many years ago now Town were away at Orient, hadn't noticed it was all ticket and called Thursday prior to the game. We travelled across from Reading and office sent the tickets on the coach, we picked them up from Orient's ticket office.

Bit disappointed with the ticket office for not allowing 2 Kidderminster tickets to be bought today using 1 season ticket.

Why state on the website it is one-for-one but at ticket office managers discretion if they won't let you buy one extra ticket?

Ticket manager obviously didn't like you and decided at his own discretion to make it as awkward as possible for you.

That would've been understandable   however my old man had sent my mother to go and get them for us today.

Not a major issue but a wasted journey still and I don't know what the criteria is for being allowed to buy more than one, maybe if you know someone in the ticket office I don't know?

I tried for four today with two season tickets and got only the two, maybe it will relax a little as time goes on and the demand is better understood

It won't sell out so I don't see why they have to make it so difficult and have these unneccessary grey areas?

Quoted from grimsby pete
I think the EXILE season ticket would be a good idea,

They could give us 10 or 15 games season ticket,

That would encourage us to try and get to more home games,

I understand they can not reserve us a seat as we will not be attending all games,

BUT

They could give us a seat in the normal way somewhere near our asking place,

On second thoughts maybe an 8 game season ticket as well,

I would be hard pushed to make ten.


This would work well for shift-workers, given that they're are so many in the town.

Just give the club money for 5, 10, 15 matches upfront and pick and choose which ones you can make at the time of booking or with so many days notice of the game. When it comes to priority games you have first dibs after season ticket holders, possibly trust members (not too sure whether this should be take priority over the trust or not)

We'll do well to sell 1,000 tickets I'd say.
