So if you only have one season ticket to use, you're basically asking someone to come along and sit on their own. Not sure it will work in the way it's been done, but hope it bumps up the crowd at least a little. I still think the club would have been better off using this type of initiative for a more appealing fixture with a better atmosphere (e.g. at home to Dundee or Hearts). I think that way people would have been more likely to have a memorable/enjoyable experience at the game and want to come back. Are you expecting a full sell out for this game and that’s why u can’t move from your seat to sit with your poor mate. One u putting the through Levins tactics and two letting them sit on there own wow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They won't be sitting on their own as they're bringing someone else along with them, who our group also sorted out with a free ticket. Thanks for the concern though. 😄 On a serious note, simply moving around the stand and sitting anywhere isn't easy these days as the club decided to take the reserved stickers off the seats so it's impossible to know if seats are taken or not. Was any explanation ever provided as to why the stickers were removed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strawman Posted February 19, 2024 Report Share Posted February 19, 2024 I’d prefer Season tickets get stickers back as well but think argument is that technically any seat could be reserved as everyone needs a ticket. I hear there’s a cash gate in Eadt Stand though, the last turnstyle maybe ? What happens there as presumably they don’t have a method to issue a ticket Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy Posted February 19, 2024 Report Share Posted February 19, 2024 They dont do it because theyd have to pay someone to spend a week putting stickers on seats. rik2304 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aitchy Posted February 26, 2024 Report Share Posted February 26, 2024 (edited) Went to try and get a ticket for someone just now using my season ticket, but wasn't able to. Then looked at the initial article on the official site and it states season ticket holders had to have claimed extra ticket by last Monday!! 🤦♂️ Seem bizarre. Surely we should be doing all we can to get as many through the gate as we can for this game. Edited February 26, 2024 by Aitchy Lt.

I am no IT expert, but there would have been some way that the system could be set up so that season tickets holders were able to enter their barcode number and receive a free ticket. Its not as though there is going to be a great demand from non season ticket holders to buy a ticket for this game. Thankfully our wonderfully efficient SLO has managed to sort things for me. garydavidson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
