Sour Mash Posted 29 February, 2012 Share Posted 29 February, 2012 So I have to shell out 60 odd quid to watch us play the skates?!? If you do buy a ticket for the Doncaster game, you may as well book some cheap travel and do that, no point wasting it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SB Posted 29 February, 2012 Share Posted 29 February, 2012 Not when it falls when I have coursework due in and exams! Extremely inconvenient. Pay up or shut up. This threads getting abit tedious. Facts: Ticket office Open from 10am on Sunday the 11th of March The games will ALWAYS be linked according to the ticket office Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint-Fred Posted 29 February, 2012 Share Posted 29 February, 2012 The games will ALWAYS be linked according to the ticket office Hardly going to say anything else are they?..undermines the whole scheme a bit if they say "oh yes sir once donny's out the way we will sell the tickets on their own" Perhaps they are right but it would IMO be madness to have say 5000 tickets unsold on March the 25th and then not sell them?- unless they then link them to the Reading game?

Jesus Reigned Posted 3 March, 2012 Share Posted 3 March, 2012 Can anyone tell me what the "other" number is for the ticket office, ie not the 0800 one? I seem to remember it's a number that starts "01"? I'm going to queue up at the stadium tomorrow, but if it's hectic I intend to try booking tickets by phone whilst in the queue!

Saint137 Posted 4 March, 2012 Share Posted 4 March, 2012 Itchen Corner on sale at the window for Pompey - its not open for Donny so what they're doing is selling Itchen corner for Pompey and then you can have a ticket elsewhere for the Donny game. Only 3 or 4 deep queueing at 11am so worth popping down if you're local Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Duckhunter Posted 4 March, 2012 Share Posted 4 March, 2012 Got mine, used my mates numbers and my credit card.

Kingsland Codger Posted 4 March, 2012 Share Posted 4 March, 2012 Booking fee question. I bought 2 tickets for both Donny and Skates using two season ticket numbers. I forgot to ask the booking fee when purchasing. Is it a fee of £3 for the lot, £3 for each match (i.e.£6) or £3 for each ticket (i.e. £12)?

Yeah, or before 6.45pm tonight, I was told this yesterday on the phone when trying to swap my Block 40 tickets for the Cheats game which I had ordered on Sunday for tickets in blocks 1-3, which they wouldn't let me do; even though the woman on Sunday on the phone line cocked up by telling me that blocks 1-3 weren't on sale for the Cheats game, when she should have said for Doncaster.

JRM Posted 6 March, 2012 Share Posted 6 March, 2012 So they've gone off sale for a week? Yep. L has just gone down there to get my ticket for tonight and bumped into someone who wanted to buy skates (having had a mate pass on a message they were on sale), the way the chap at the ticket office explained it the communication is confusing, it was a couple of days for season ticket holders to buy extra when also buying an extra for Doncaster, that was for sunday / Monday. Now nothing until next week! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxosponge Posted 6 March, 2012 Share Posted 6 March, 2012 Naturally the club is taking the opportunity to maximise revenue from the ticket tax. After all, most season ticket holders are more than likely to be at the ground later today plus again on Saturday. If they could buy their extra tickets then, think how many £3 taxes would be lost as comkpared to making them wait till Sunday. But if anyone has a logical explanation to explain the nonsense I would like to see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if anyone has a logical explanation to explain the nonsense I would like to see it. They do it with all away tickets - wait until there are as few home games as possible (usually none) left before the away game in question, leaving out of town fans no choice but to pay the £3. It's not the £3 in itself that's the problem, its the pettiness of the club. If that's what they're doing for the Skates game, then what a p*sstake.

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if there are still Pompey tickets left after the Doncaster game has finished. it is for one reason only, maximise the revenue from the ticket tax, they have been using such tactics for away ticket sales for quite a while now, ensuring fans who don't live near St Mary's call up and wack a tasty £3 profit on top of the ticket sale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
