Official Site : October And November Match Ticket Categories Confirmed.

Slow down Whitey. Your reply to Jamdrop misses both her and my point about the flexi ticket. We know one is being planned (it was first mentioned in the summer) but we are still none the wiser about the details and most important of all when we can buy one. I repeat, it's no good to me while ever it's still in Linton's head. If they leave it much longer, it won't even be viable for me.

 

Why? It's supposed to be reciprocal pricing. Newcastle charge away fans £27.

 

I assumed from your post that you hadn't seen the updates on the engagement forum. Hence me listing the things discussed. I would suggest you seek out members of the trust, or an SLO if you require more feedback on the meeting. But as a supporter myself I am more than satisfied regards the efforts underway at the Club to resolve a number of issues raised by other supporters.

 

I don't remember a proper thread giving any feedback, just a couple of one sentence messages by gally saying 'linton has sorted the bottle tops' and 'car park getting sorted' or words to that effect

 

It's on the way.

 

That's the problem Whitey, nobody gets any feedback. Was there EVER any feedback given from the SLO when they had a meeting with the police? One posted on here (Sarah?) Asking for questions. A load were given and she promised to update us. Never been seen or heard of since.

As you work in the media department would you be able to enquire about the possibility of the next fan engagement meeting being live streamed? It could even be n Barnsley player to drive sales up if they wanted.

The most updates and information I've had regarding the engagement meeting has come from you and it shouldn't really have to should it. Although obviously it is appreciated

 

Aren't reading charging £20 for away fans this season ?

 

Any idea what the hold up is? Presumably they've decided on the price etc so why not launch it? The only reason I can think of is that they are deliberately holding off to force people to buy season tickets instead

 

Hence the words "I'm assuming".

That's what the SLO's, trust members and representatives of the supporters groups are for. That's why they attend said meetings, to pass on what was said. Take it up with them. Or attend the meetings. Or just relax and see what happens. Have a wannk maybe.

 

Without trying to be over cynical, I think it may be announced after the Newcastle game.

 

Why would you assume that I hadn't seen any updates (and now explain how to get said feedback 'if I require it') from me saying that introducing a flexi ticket potentially after 10 home games would be pointless? Not sure why you are making this anything to do with that meeting at all, I have no issues with feedback etc. I have only referred to it as you assumed there had been feedback about something that wasn't relevant to my post.

 

The whole point of them is to engage with supporters groups representatives who then pass on the message etc.

Regards filming etc, that would negate the point of it. Plus there's the issue of many in attendance not wanting to be on film like that. So it's about communication isn't it? The Club offer fans these opportunities to engage, it's down to fans then, no?

 

You can see the point being made. If a flexi-ticket is to be successful you need to have the maximum number of games to be able to use it at. Each passing game reduces the flexibility and this the effectiveness of the ticket. It would have been an ideal time to launch it when announcing these categories.

The club have responded to requests for this sort of ticket and that is commendable and communication with customer/fan Base is improving with yourself being part of that. But resolution needs to be delivered.

 

I think they'll sell out against Newcastle so to have that as a flex match would be throwing money away.

 

So, how do we get away with charging our fans less for the Forest game?

 

You replied to me. Not the other way around.

I merely stated that a flexi-ticket was on the way. You then replied. And in said reply you gave me the impression that you hadn't been updated on what was said about the flexi-ticket at the recent fans forum meeting. Because had you been, you wouldn't have posted what you did.

I'm off now. Good evening to you.

 

The categories and the excessive nature of some of them was justified by the club on the basis of reciprocity. The ripping off of Newcastle fans shows the lie behind this.

Disappointing.

Twenty is plenty.

 

Well obviously I would. I fail to see how it being said that a flexi ticket is 'being looked into' and then a batch of prices for 5 more games being released today would in any way change it. Introducing a flexi ticket after 10 home games would be pointless.

 

Mate, I work in media. Customer service and fan engagement isn't my role. I originally got involved in this thread as a supporter. But as tends to happen now, folk assume because I am employed there now that I can solve all their BFC issues.

I think the Club are doing brilliantly. They don't get everything right. Who does? But for folk to whinge about £15 tickets takes the piss. As does folk assuming this and that regards the flexi ticket when everything was outlined at the engagement meeting.

Like I say, it's on the way and in my opinion it's set at a good price.

It will get pulled to bits by some folk, because that's how things go.

I'm off now. I've had enough BFC for one day.
