    What about those that broke the rules and sent people in their place or took 10 season tickets?

    did they want it more than someone who followed te clubs rules?

    Had this out earlier...................stop foooking whingeing !!!

    Did anybody get mugged for their ST ....................NO !!!

    So its probably ST holders sending people who could get down to the WELL with their STs............nowt up with that

    If yer didn't queue you dont deserve a ticket
    I feel sorry for those guys that did queue only to be turned away at the last minute - thats who we should feel sorry for

    The rest.....................get over it...............think of summert else to moan about FFS

    Should people have to lose pay from work, take a day's holiday or be disciplined for unauthorised absence then?

    Nowt up with that except that it was against the rules posted on the official site, namely EACH season ticket holder had to go in person.
    Hey what do I care, I'm just a silly bugger wi a Colchester stub, ah well atleast I can say I saw Mullers last game for the club.

    Exactly, quite ridiculous tbh mate.

    Why would anyone book a full day off work, simply to stand in a queue all day? No thanks. The club have cocked up big-style - and they know it.

    you are ignoring the same point over and over

    the club published rules for the allocation of tickets and those rules stated that you had to go in person for your ticket. this is what led to some ticket holders not going on monday, i feel that by publishing one set of rules yet adopting another set the club has seriously failed

    If you work in Dee-dah land, getting a day off on such short notice is rather difficult.</p>

    Managed to get down to the Well at 4:50pm, but they had just closed the queue and then it was later announced that they had sold out on the first day. People who have other commitments (i.e. work for their living) didn't have a dog's chance. </p>

    Getting off one's &quot;fat arse&quot; considering fat arse was working hard to earn it's keep, was not practical given the impossible timescale.</p>

    Whereas some people who got their tickets

    Probably got off their 'fat arse' for the first time since the last day they signed on :D

    NB, I did say 'some' before anyone starts!

    I don't believe that amount of people all got the time off work!

    The club has done nowt wrong...................well except maybe

    They have greatly underestimated the level of interest in the game
    And so have I.................because I planned to go down to the WELL on Wednesday and get a ticket

    Other than that...............nowt wrong.............ST holders only...........2 tickets (i.e. one for themselves and a friend)........whats up with that (dunno)

    Only problem is there has been a demand for tickets 2 or 3 times greater than what Liverpool have allocated
    If you want to blame anybody blame those fookers at the over side of the Pennines

    Not very PC.................but we all know those b'astards don't get blamed for owt
    In fact I would say they are likely to get away with blue murder (once or twice)

    Aint been since Cardiff.......................!!!

    Can we have the results of the survey carried out on this one
    Or is it all earsay and old mothers tales.............as per usual in these events

    Said it before...................there will be fair weather fans there and there may even be a few fans from other clubs................but...........the vast majority of the 6000 will be ST Barnsley fans with another Barnsley fan who is a member of their family or is a friend.......................and there aint nowt up with that
