After working away all week i got home at around 4.00 yesterday afternoon and went to the ground to but 4 match tickets for todays game, guess what? i was told i couldnt have any as they had stopped selling them at 4.00pm!! Have they sold out? No, have they still got the tickets? Yes, so why cant i have them, deadlines 4.00pm!! What an absoloute joke, you would think that for a game of this size that they would want as many bfc fans to go as possible. In a last attempt i phoned hudds this morning to be told that there will be no pay on the gate turnstiles available to the away supporters. I know i should have been more organised and got them last saturday but still, i wonder how many enquiries they have had today for tickets and been unable to satisfy. Just another thing that our club gets completley wrong. So i will now have to sit with the hudds fans today and bite my tonge - repeatedlly i hope.
yeah they have been on sale for weeks and its been known for ages when they stop being sold. shouldnt have been so unorganised waiting until the last minute.
Some people don't make their mind up to go until the last minute. Especially when you've been working away all week. How many people can get down to Oakwell before 5:00 - not many. I would have thought it would be in the club's own interests to stay open until 6:00 the day before a match of this magnitude. Fair enough it was advertised but it would be nice if they could do a little extra for the fans for once.
