NVMal Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 Am i right in thinking that this will be such an easy job this season that things cannot possibly go wrong. As pretty much all seats have been allocated to season ticket holders there will only be a few seats available on a match by match basis so the only potential time when a big operation would be needed would be cup games. Given the size of our squad i am not expecting a huge focus on the cup competitions this year so i can't foresee there being any problems on the ticketing front. Maybe i'm just being optimistic.

Drew Peacock Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 You are making quite an assumption that the season tickets will be issued before 15 August. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinmans Love Child Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 How do the Forever Bristol memberships work, I though I read you might get a card which your tickets get uploaded too? Or will they just be sent out as per usual? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or will they just be sent out as per usual? You buy online and the ticket will automatically be uploaded to your card, which will be scanned at the turnstile. One good thing with having a tiny squad, there will be plenty of seats that were once taken up by non playing players, plus not so many players family tickets.

Robbored Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 Past experiences at City with any kind of new ticketing systems suggest that it will be chaotic come 15th August. I'm expecting long queues, pissed off and angry fans and no staff around who might be able to explain what's gone wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aussie Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 I've pretty much written off attending many home games. Most are given to season ticket holders. There isn't much left for the rest of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other season I watched as people buying tickets on the day strolled up and got them. The other side of the car park people who had prepaid, stood in the hammering rain to get into a portakabin to collect their ticket. Nothing summed up the club organisation better...

CyderInACan Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 Expect the standard scenes at the "entrance pods" come Brentford (h). Despite a last minute dash around BS3 and the surrounding environs by Scotty, most will not have rec'd their new ST and the gates will be open to all and sundry. Just like the previous 2 years!

Tinmans Love Child Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 Just had a call from the club clarifying a few details for my Forever Bristol membership, apparently cards have not arrived in yet but will be posted out as soon as they arrive, to confirm the Forever Bristol cards will act like the season ticket cards and tickets will be uploaded to your card and you just scan it at the ground Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
