ErnestTurnip Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 Next take people on for anything from 2 days to 3 weeks when they have their sales and Father Christmas does the same in December so it is possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s pretty much the most effective system that money can buy and when it works, it works. The problem is that there has never really been much of an effort to utilise it in the past, nor was there a tutorial of sorts before going on sale which would have helped to get people set up beforehand. As it is, everyone’s seat is reserved and there’s plenty of time to get the price yet so what’s the rush? And yes I appreciate the irony of me saying that given I renewed within an hour or two of going on sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Alf Hartigan Posted August 27, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted August 27, 2020 (edited) Need to cut FV some slack.

People may be rushing as some clubs have been capping sales due to reduced capacities You would be hacked off if the club said right we’re stopping sales yet you’ve been trying to get through Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d like to think FV have earned the right to be given the benefit of the doubt on that front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Faustus Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 I've not panicked yet... was just gonna have a mooch up tomorrow, wear a mask, spend a few quid. Am I missing something?

But then again they pay half the price of proper clubs like us so they can’t complain that they only get half of the games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WTF are people panicking for anyway, there won't be any games that you can attend for a couple of months anyway. When you can it will be the cold & wet winter months, socially distanced, no atmosphere/away fans and masked up. What a sobering thought..... That £10 I-follow, warmth, no masks, take-away and a few stellas will seem like excellent VFM. Especially so for the mid-week games.

Plus existing ST holders have until 6th September (I think) to claim their seats from last season, so not all seats would be available right now.

farnworth white Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 I’d be amazed if I’m ever sat in my seat for any game this season. I’m also expecting the possibility that I may be moved upstairs from ESL to ESU for some games. Ordinarily I’d be a bit miffed at not getting my seat after sitting there for over 20 years but accept that this season it ain’t gonna happen.

Would have made sense to stick out a note a week or two before they were going on sale to say that it was going to be online-only initially and to log in to your account and update x, y or z and check your details are all up to date.
