Honest Saints Fan Posted June 28, 2015 Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 i dont but someone has they should care. also if the cost are covered what are the other 30 paying for? I have and I don't care. They are paying for their hotel, breakfast and transportation whilst in Armenia. The flight cost is covered. Nothing else is.

Kevin James Is On Stilts Posted June 28, 2015 Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 Why do you care? It's not you that's paid over the odds? Can you see the point that's being made though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruno Strasser Posted June 28, 2015 Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 I think the very reason it is being discussed here is reason enough for the club to comment. The Club should have made it clear what had happened and how they were dealing with it. The opportunity for some good PR was missed and any ill feeling or resentment could be avoided.

Honest Saints Fan Posted June 28, 2015 Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 Everyone who has paid the full price knows because the club has phoned them and given them the opportunity to bring a friend at a reduced price on a first come first service basis. Most seem to be fine with it and presumably taken up the option of bringing a friend. Not the club's fault you don't know anyone on the charter. What other way could they have done it?

Templar Saint Posted June 28, 2015 Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 My understanding is that the charter company indicated that they would be putting on a plane of 130 seats rather than 100 as originally stated at no extra cost to the club. This is where the additional seats have come from at a late stage and therefore it would have been unfair to deal with any other way than the offer made to those already booked It would not have been practicable to recalculate the cost and then try to fill with htose that had rejected the original price and probably could not now go due to cancelling holidays and work commitments. Yes I did book at original price and took up the offer of an additional place. Jiangsu Sainty, Oldmuirton and Honest Saints Fan 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ex-montrosesaintee Posted June 28, 2015 Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 (edited) Surely the club can also do whatever the hell they want. They chartered the plane, they can sell seats to whoever they want for whatever price they want. I don't understand why fans have some god given right to be given free/cheap deals by the club? To be honest, I find the whole toys out the pram 'what about me?' Attitude extremely cringeworthy.

Lets get back to to the footy and discussing what might be a tricky tie with a huge reward! I'm pretty sure TW will start with a fairly cautious approach but we would love to have a goal or two to take to Perth. I can't find any decent info on this team but some of you smart anoraks can surely give us some background on what we might be up against.

Don't think anyone was expecting free deals, but we're hoping for an explanation as to how club came to the decision of offering cheaper deals at almost half price. Now that hsf has done the clubs job for them, I'm happy at how the decision was made, although not aware if all extra places have been filled,or if there still some available Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Center Half Posted June 28, 2015 Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 FFS I bought two Cheeseburgers today at Brechin when I went in, then 10 mins to go to the end they started selling them off for a £1, I want the club, Brechin city Fc, and Aberdeen FC, to come out and explain why some people got them at half price .

ex-montrosesaintee Posted June 28, 2015 Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 I think Tommy might start with one up top but be prepared to alter it to 4-4-2 quite quickly if they offer little in the way of a goal threat. i reckon he'll start with Sutton and bring Kane on after 45 or 60 minutes and seek a comfortable win, without ever giving them a sniff.

To be honest, I find the whole toys out the pram 'what about me?' Attitude extremely cringeworthy. Think questions could justifiably have been asked if the club had arsed up the numbers and plane capacity in the first instance, as could be assumed by reading HSF's posts. Templar Saint's explanation clears things up though. Don't think anybody was looking for freebies or a cheap trip, just a fair deal for all.

ancientsaint Posted June 28, 2015 Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 That's me finished. I'm not supporting Saints any more. Stirling Albion for me from now on. I also thought of becoming a Bino for this season - saw them a few times at Annfield when it was on the go - the new stadium is quite good too and close to the Swimming pool.

rik2304 Posted June 28, 2015 Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 I got an email asking if I wanted to join the European Exclusive Gold Member travel club. Seems I get to travel the whole way sitting on Steve Browns knee while Roddy gives a deep tissue massage. Can't wait!

Center Half Posted June 28, 2015 Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 Sorry to ask what may be a stupid question seeing that we are in our fourth year of Europa league competition but is it the same officials for both games.( I think no but I am no sure).

Dave H Posted June 28, 2015 Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 just read about the extra 30 seats, bonus to those who can now go. As for those wanting explanations, will it make you sleep any better at night? Wish I knew someone on the charter, I could have been tempted although saving my cash for Kazakstan trip next round (or Belgrade, although I doubt it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
