Welcome To The Jungle Posted January 24, 2015 Report Share Posted January 24, 2015 With a full house, the disruption of building work etc I would encourage everyone to get to AG as soon as possible tomorrow. Queues at both the ticket collection and some turnstiles (particularly Atyeo Home). Get the atmosphere brewing nice and early and forget about the bubbles.

Well, obviously some will have to get there early because their postage paid tickets haven't arrived, and I'm guessing that the DEH will be open for Dolman ticket holders (although, knowing BCFC, anything is possible), but WTF are the others supposed to do when they arrive early? Oh, right, the pre-match entertainment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aizoon Posted January 24, 2015 Report Share Posted January 24, 2015 There are local pubs and you can get a drink in every stand before the game. How many does the Legends bar hold? (with or without wristbands?). And the local pubs are, you may have noticed, on the other side of the turnstiles. I'm aware that the DEH/Dolman solution can't be applied to the other stands but, now it has been drilled into the security staff, it provides an excellent facility. Well done, BCFC. It's still a bleak prospect for those in the other stands, who'll have to spend ages in a queue or watching the "entertainment". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The outside pubs are on the same side of the turnstiles as the ticket collection points. Which stand are you in..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarcusX Posted January 24, 2015 Report Share Posted January 24, 2015 Just looking forward to the 'missed the first goal' thread tomorrow because they turned up at 5 to 2 I'll be in that group. Purely because it's already such a rush for me to get to the game, and now I have to collect a ticket that I did not want to have to collect!

REDOXO Posted January 24, 2015 Report Share Posted January 24, 2015 It's good advice. I will get there early and practice my scarf wave. Get there early as your scarf will be knicked by a West Ham fan on the home terraces! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinheadface Posted January 24, 2015 Report Share Posted January 24, 2015 I can see it being another ticket nightmare!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChippenhamRed Posted January 24, 2015 Report Share Posted January 24, 2015 Based on feedback on this forum it sounds like there are a significant amount of people who haven't received their tickets. If that figure was, say, 4,000 - a third of the attendance - that could be a complete nightmare for the club. Surely they would have to delay kick off? Would be helpful if the club could give some idea of the size of the problem so people know just how early they should consider arriving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leveller Posted January 24, 2015 Report Share Posted January 24, 2015 Love how people are moaning about having to collect there ticket!! It's life get on with it... Allow time and you will be sorted!! Well we paid extra to have the tickets posted & avoid queueing, so it's not surprising we're a bit miffed. I usually collect on the day but decided it might be a bit busy this time...... It's going to be even busier now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomBCFCUK Posted January 24, 2015 Report Share Posted January 24, 2015 I'm sure you will get that postage money back!! These things happen in life I'm afraid blaming the club ain't the way forward!! Just get down there earlier simple!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChippenhamRed Posted January 24, 2015 Report Share Posted January 24, 2015 Love how people are moaning about having to collect there ticket!! It's life get on with it... Allow time and you will be sorted!! If people wanted to collect they would have chosen the option. Likely they didn't choose that option because there were good reasons why it was more convenient for them to pay a pound more and get the tickets delivered. Some of us have more going on in our lives than just football and it might not be as easy as just getting there early. How early do we need to get there to be sure of collecting in time? No one is sure. In other words, it's an entirely legitimate complaint. Some times on here it feels like the biggest moaners are the people moaning about moaning, without actually considering the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcusX Posted January 25, 2015 Report Share Posted January 25, 2015 In the interest of fairness to the club, credit where it's due. I got there at about 1.15 (game got called off this morning) and there was no queue at all for collections or reprints Probably helps that no tickets were on sale today though I guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
