Membership or not

not excuse for only 2k home fans (if correct) we have enough season ticket holders where the fuck are they 

Possibly like me and haven’t joined. I think posters on here who are basically die hard and committed, don’t represent ordinary punters and many, even ST holders will be put off by having to join just to buy a cup ticket.

Any help gratefully received.  Just purchased a seat for tomorrow, thinking I would print at home, but even though the purchase was confirmed, there's no link to the ticket to print it.   Under Ticket Management it says I currently don't have any tickets to manage.  Tried ringing ticket office but its just ringing out.  How do I print a ticket?

Have you got an email with PDF attached?

That makes more sense Matt but you’d like to think if they’ve tweaked it or amended it they’d let ST holders know, or better still just bin it altogether for me? 😠

They amended the wording on the more recent website posts about tickets for tomorrow

Do you get a link for an electronic ticket / qr code on your phone when you buy online fella?

FFS why are you making it sound like its rocket science

All a ST holder needs to do is tick a couple of boxes and he is confirmed a member

Not that I can see!  No notification or email.  Cheers for replying anyway.

You should have received two emails, one confirming the transaction and one with a PDF for your tickets. Might be worth checking your junk mail.

Nice one Leyther, you're right, got the emails now.  Took several minutes for emails to come, I just assumed the ticket would be in my account, but you live and learn.  Cheers.

I get additional tickets and like I’ve said I’m not a supporter of this membership

however surely there’s more season ticket holders who can tip up

Fella on Twitter claiming the ticket office have told him we've sold just over 5k.

Could be bullshitting, mind.

Whilst this membership thing is shit and poorly thought out, I'd imagine if this was a 3rd round game against a big club there'd be a lot more fans who would go through with "all the hassle" of registering.

It's just a convenient excuse not to go.

I don't think it's "just" that, but even if it is if people are using it then it needs reviewing. There are enough obstacles in place to stop people going, the club shouldn't be adding more unless there's a strong justification.

I'm in this camp.

I've said if it was a more glamerous game then I'd probably make the effort.

I wouldn't say its a convenient excuse though, its just more of a faff than the fixtures worth

Going to a game is always faff, this game is no different.

The weather's shit and probably doesn't help, but if we get through to the 3rd round and draw a top 6 prem club or the likes of Arsenal, Spurs, Villa etc... you can bet your left bollock every fucker will want one.

I hope the club give those who purchased a ticket for this game priority.

 

Shit fans.

Priority will be to season ticket holders. As it should be.

I know what you're saying but I think the days of full houses for cup games are in the past, unless maybe a quarter final v a huge club.  We got a decent crowd v Liverpool a few years ago but even with reduced ticket prices it was several thousand short of a full house.  If that fixture is repeated in January yes a lot more would go than v Stockport but there'd still be loads of local football fans that couldn't be bothered with joining the membership of a club they don't necessarily support, those types are the difference between getting a decent crowd and getting a huge one.

I wouldn’t. I’m being honest. It’s a ridiculous idea. Also the cup is shite now.

Can’t think of any other undersubscribed club or business that is restricting customer purchases.

It really is a poor do. 
 

I also hate the thought of it becoming more sit down and clap than it already is.

They should indeed.

It is nothing new that fans will be attracted to bigger games though. Always will be- that's why Stockport have sold so many.

There’s no argument regardless its piss poor no doubt those not going will turn up if we get a nice 3rd round tie 

We perhaps need to look at results this season at home too.

We're out of form and it's no longer as attractive a competition as it once was.

Of course more would come out for a big team in the third round, but that's typical of many teams.

No show for a while

I’m sure if we can get nearly 3k against port vale in the pizza cup we can muster a few more in the fa cup
