Couldn't Organise A Piss Up In A Brewary Our Club I queued eight hours for twelve tickets and even then two of them are on the row behind.
Well it depends if my mates, brothers mates (two of them) are or just coming to spend the special day with their friend (as a none Barnsley best mate of mine is).
RE: I think it's to do with cost. Don't think that internet payment would cost that much. The company doing it would charge a fee per transaction so the cost to BFC is very minimal. Weigh it up against the cost of selling tickets manually from the turnstiles/box office and it would work out cheaper if a majority of people used it. BFC just like living in the past. Its simpler.
I have no problem with that at all! just hope we sell out our allocation as it will mean a higher chance of more than the % we will get for the final! I think we will only get around 25 for the final, based on FA rules.
Well Huddersfield will be a bit quieter, whilst some of us make the journey to the big smoke. Yeah 25K we expect for the final, which will be two per season ticket holder.
I think you must have been stood VERY near me I was about 10 people from the front when Shep arrived chatting to the stewards.
RE: KFC I Feel Your Pain Nah, the guy in the orange waterproof poncho was my mates dad. This KFC dude was deffo near to us mate.</p> Could have murdered some zinger chicken - wish I knew who he was at the time.</p>
RE: KFC I Feel Your Pain Your mates Dad is a comic then lol. As is the guy in the cowboy hat, the scouse living woman and the worker in his illuminuse jacket, who blended in with the stewards lol. As for food, you're not joking. Going from 6 am until 5 pm without food could have killed me haha.
Definately a comic alright mate! Yeah, the scouse woman was funny too. I think the best was made of a bad situation. Still knackered but may sink a Kroney before the night is out.
There's always someone worse off than you. I was flicking through Sky Sports earlier and the Salford match was shocking playing conditions, even for Rugby. Waterlogged pitch, ball barely moving etc. What about the foreign fan in the queue? Norwegian by the sounds of it, in the red coat.
LOL We too thought he was Scandinavian - so my mates dad, in the poncho, asked him straight out. No, the story I got was that he was the guy who fell out of the Reds coach going to Bolton for an away game. Just a normal red, apart from the accident left him talking like he was from Norway or summat!
In that case... I feel a bit of an arse regarding that comment - he must have been informed of that incident and walked off to deal with it as a result - as he should To be fair, I wasn't to know that - obviously being at the front of the queue at the time I got my tickets shortly afterwards and went on my merry way (after trying to locate Shep!)
Neither I had a blue coat on with a grey stripy hat, next to the cowboy dude for most of the day but he kept flitting about.
Eh? "for segregation reasons." So....oh we have to sell these 7 first, we can't move on a block....why? It's obvious with the people in the queue that they need to move on a block! Put the small number of tickets to 1 side, remember what you have there (that might be a problem for some of them), sell from new block, someone comes and asks for number that you have set aside.....sell them.....simple!
I think I can remember you. Yeah him in the Cowboy hat couldn't keep still lol. The Norwegian guy was the same.
Let me get this straight. Out of 12 of you possibly 4 arent Barnsley fans? and youve been and queued for there tickets? You absolute lovely person
