djharvey Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 amazing so many people struggled through and managed to get one. Yeah, it was a complete nightmare! Had to phone up, give my details and then they actually wanted my bank card details, took about 3 bloody minutes! May not bother this season
rocknrollman no2 Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 Tonight is the night according to jordon sibley on twitter Apparantly it will be on the offical site at 11 pm tonight.wooo hooo!!
John Boy Saint Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 Apparantly it will be on the offical site at 11 pm tonight.wooo hooo!! So that will be double site meltdown as everyone looks to see the details, then pile on here to comment and mither!
EastleighSoulBoy Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 better start changing the turnstiles then as i do not think they are ready for that piece of technology I think you're right Mike. The technology for swipe cards is proven by their use in high volume situations such as most Mainline Railway stations and the London Underground. The problem will come, with our turnstile layout, if/when a swipe card is declined. There will be the problem of people queueing behind an embarassed , or even disgruntled, fan. Not that many would try it on if they think about the consequences of embarassment BUT we are talking about people in general so some may try it on!
benjii Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 So that will be double site meltdown as everyone looks to see the details, then pile on here to comment and mither! That's what the less mature element will do, f'sure.
SO16_Saint Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 That's what the less mature element will do, f'sure. F'shizzle
La BoIS Saint Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 Seriously, what's the point of waiting releasing this until 11pm.
bowers-sfc Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 Seriously, what's the point of waiting releasing this until 11pm. To make the Echo look ****, so they cant print the details untill saturday.
Turkish Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 (edited) a month to buy something everyone knew was coming, not that hard ffs! (only agenda supporting saints and getting fed up with limp wristed wet whingers) removal of the installment plan without notice made it difficult for some. I didn't get a season ticket last season because there wasn't one and i was a bit strapped for cash this time last year so didn't have that much cash at the time. This year i's a different story and doesn't matter either way. Just because it was easy fro you it doesn't mean it was for everyone you plum. Edited 2 June, 2011 by Turkish
23rdSaint Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 This was not the most sensible time to buy my first car.

Not that many would try it on if they think about the consequences of embarassment BUT we are talking about people in general so some may try it on! Don't forget that most Saints fans aren't very bright. It'll be just like the self service tills at Tesco's with each turnstile requiring an assistant. I remember going to Man City and they had electronic readers and an assistant. We might as well not botherunless a system that is both fool proof and secure (people can't sneak in) is implemented.
JRM Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 Seriously, what's the point of waiting releasing this until 11pm. I was thinking this as well, what's the f*cking obsession with announcing stuff in the middle of the night, if it is really to avoid the echo from printing it then how petty does that make the club look?? Pathetic.
hamster Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 DO NOT READ UNTIL 23:23 Not that it directly effects me but I would like to to be tge first to say how outraged I am about the new pricing structure.
SO16_Saint Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 DO NOT READ UNTIL 23:23 Not that it directly effects me but I would like to to be tge first to say how outraged I am about the new pricing structure. DAMN IT Hamster....this was embargoed until 23:23!!!
SO16_Saint Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 Reckon the club have links with Monster/RedBull/coffee producers??
Brussels Saint Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 Seems the season tickets are "going the distance".............see what I did there?
hamster Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 Whilst I'm waiting. News tonight says Jordan Sibley Although he says it rather glibly Sitting waiting refreshing pages The waiting's over, it's seemed like ages Wheres the new shirt I want to know It's like waiting for the result of a talentless show People ITK with their little titbits At Tge end of the day, I dont give a ****. I thank you.
um pahars Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 a month to buy something everyone knew was coming, not that hard ffs! (only agenda supporting saints and getting fed up with limp wristed wet whingers) You have to wonder what all those other stupid clubs are doing selling their season tickets over a much longer period!!!!! How come we're the only ones who do it right by having such a short window????
SO16_Saint Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 As it turns out it wasn't very lucky, for my cat at least. WTF are you laying in front of the bathroom door, of course you're going to get stood on!!!
SparkySaint Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 I'm going the distance but I have a good feeling about midnight. Fingers crossed
La BoIS Saint Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 This is pathetic. Have tweeted back giving my opinion using #sibleymuppet. Please use this hashtag every time this dickhead tweets anything.
rocknrollman no2 Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 Perhaps details will be announced on Monday?lol.
Thedelldays Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 This is pathetic. Have tweeted back giving my opinion using #sibleymuppet. Please use this hashtag every time this dickhead tweets anything. why..? why are you staying up for ST prices..? you cant really buy one now..even if you did, there will be 1000s available in the morning
SparkySaint Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 This is pathetic. Have tweeted back giving my opinion using #sibleymuppet. Please use this hashtag every time this dickhead tweets anything. I'm all over it @saintsfanpjr
Saint_clark Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 You know what else is pathetic? People that give this poor man abuse when he's probably told when to tweet this info anyway. Imagine what good this is doing the club on the advertising side of things, with the amount of hits they're getting on the website tonight.
Turkish Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 why..? why are you staying up for ST prices..? you cant really buy one now..even if you did, there will be 1000s available in the morning I am going straight down to SMS as soon as they are announce to queue through the night to show my passion for the club and hopefully graft a free cup of tea, delivered in person by our super chairman.
Thedelldays Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 I am going straight down to SMS as soon as they are announce to queue through the night to show my passion for the club and hopefully graft a free cup of tea, delivered in person by our super chairman. im already there sent via tapatalk on iphone
Nexstar Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 You know what else is pathetic? People that give this poor man abuse when he's probably told when to tweet this info anyway. Imagine what good this is doing the club on the advertising side of things, with the amount of hits they're getting on the website tonight. True, but then again he said tonight 3 hours ago. I'd imagine people would expect that not to be the middle of the night, considering they clearly knew the prices as he tweeted it.
scott_saints Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 Anyone else now hoping they DON'T come out tonight, so they can laugh at some of the mongs on here?
JRM Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 The communications department of the club is beyond a joke, if its not this sibley character who is the tosser then it is whoever tells him to do it from above. Load of ********
hypochondriac Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 True, but then again he said tonight 3 hours ago. I'd imagine people would expect that not to be the middle of the night, considering they clearly knew the prices as he tweeted it. But that isn't really his fault. He won't be in charge of releasing the information.
Turkish Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 You have to wonder what all those other stupid clubs are doing selling their season tickets over a much longer period!!!!! How come we're the only ones who do it right by having such a short window???? It's a masterstroke from our Super Chairman. By delaying the announcement he is building up the anticipation and excitment. He is getting everyone talking about it and excited about it without having to spend a single penny on advertising or marketing. Yet another brilliant move from Super Nicky. Why waste money on marketing when you have a forum of people who will do it for you. He is a genius.
Saint_clark Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 Anyone else now hoping they DON'T come out tonight, so they can laugh at some of the mongs on here? Kind of, but I do really wanna know the prices anyways.
Thedelldays Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 i can feel an strongly worded 'open letter' coming on here..i mean, I may miss out on one of 20,000 ST the 6 hours I am in bed...ffs
hypochondriac Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 The communications department of the club is beyond a joke, if its not this sibley character who is the tosser then it is whoever tells him to do it from above. Load of ******** Massive lol at you.
dune Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 I am going straight down to SMS as soon as they are announce to queue through the night to show my passion for the club and hopefully graft a free cup of tea, delivered in person by our super chairman. It'll be a hideous couple from Shirley at the front of the queue. She'll be pictured dribbling on the OS.
Thedelldays Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 The communications department of the club is beyond a joke, if its not this sibley character who is the tosser then it is whoever tells him to do it from above. Load of ******** why is it a joke....what is the difference between now and 8am in the morning..(when I assume it wont be a joke).....will you be dissadvataged in anyway..?
JRM Posted 2 June, 2011 Posted 2 June, 2011 Getting mad at Jordan Sibley is pathetic. What actually does he do other than stay up late at night f*cking around on his Twitter account?
