mainstand Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 Good luck waiting on a reply, I've sent an email every day since the announcement, not even an automated response so far...Have you tried phoning the Club? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saintee 14 Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 Have you tried phoning the Club?they are just as bad.my dad was at a meeting in Cumbernauld last week and called into the club to see if they knew anything else about the tickets and the girl he spoke to couldn't be more unhelpful if she tried, shocking behaviour for someone who is supposed to be in a welcoming 'front of house' type job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintSam1884 Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 Hibs tickets as good as went on general sale today - to anyone with 1+ loyalty point which apparently is anyone who has attended a game over the last two years or 20,000 people which includes the 10,000 from first two waves of sales. Reports on Hibs.net saying around 8000 tickets sold before this wave of sales so they had 3500 left for today. People saying they expected a struggle for seats but had virtually their pick of areas! So really... Can we have our extra 500 now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honest Saints Fan Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 The ticket office staff are absolutely amazing and I won't hear a bad word said against them. They are just as much in the dark as the fans by the sound of things. Vent your frustration at the governing body, not the club.

Setting Son Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 I can't see what more the club can do tbh. I'm sure they're contacting the SPFL every day trying to push them. An email or tweet to fans saying there's no news yet doesn't make much sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kilgour Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 Think the club are getting a bit of unfair stick here.OK the voucher v Hearts was not 100% foolproof but the extra 500? SPFL wake up and smell the coffee ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Center Half Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 (edited) The Voucher system was maybe not best organised and probably was not the best solution for this ticket allocation either, imagine the disappointment if every body received a voucher that day yet once the ST round was over there was still not enough tickets to go round, The only solution was to make 3600+ vouchers available to everyone who went in that day advertise the point and then 1 voucher exchanged for 1 ticket. As a ST holder one of the reason I buy the ST is to have the near guarantee that in a all ticket scenario I can receive one. However like has been said before I can not ever remember anyone who wanted to attend a saints game did not get a ticket( The Hamilton game away, and inverness Cally SC game spring to mind ) so this may be a indication that we have an increasing awareness of the club again. Personally in this situation 1 ticket to ST may have been a better idea. Edited January 19, 2016 by Center Half . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheYellowBox Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 SPFL clubs meet today. Would like Brown to tear the SPFL a new one for the total disregard they have shown saints and our fans and come back with a pile of tickets.While there, tell Sevco to either put up or shut up.

Cagey Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 They will be worried about opposing supporters sharing the Same concourse & catering. Don't know what the setup in main stand at Tyncastle is like but Hibs & Saints fans do not have a bad reputation & all the diehards will already have tickets so don't see any problem with proper stewarding.How can it take 2 weeks to make a decision ?. callander saint 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame that someone committed enough from over seas has had to change plans because of pathetic organisation by all involved, St. Johnstone included.Tex, I hope you manage to catch the game and have cause to rearrange another visit in April. I'll toast your good health from a bar at Tyncastle on the day. Dave Ferg and Oldermoresensiblepack 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
