sandwichsaint Posted 19 August, 2012 Posted 19 August, 2012 Has any ticket info gone out for this game yet? Can't see it anywhere, isn't the game to be played in the week between Wigan and ManU (?????)
View From The Top Posted 20 August, 2012 Posted 20 August, 2012 I believe it's on Tuesday 28th. Like to know details as I'd like to take the lad. Another ground to tick off.
JRM Posted 20 August, 2012 Posted 20 August, 2012 I thought they would have announced this by now, the game is only a week away so if they are going to allow time to sell and post out they should get on with it. also would like to know if there will be loyalty points for this game and if so will it impact Arsenal away which also must be due to go on sale in the next week
Griffo Posted 20 August, 2012 Posted 20 August, 2012 What is the likely allocation for this game? 1,200.
fish fingers Posted 20 August, 2012 Posted 20 August, 2012 Nothing on their site either. perhaps it's being played behind closed doors.
The9 Posted 20 August, 2012 Posted 20 August, 2012 I thought they would have announced this by now, the game is only a week away so if they are going to allow time to sell and post out they should get on with it. also would like to know if there will be loyalty points for this game and if so will it impact Arsenal away which also must be due to go on sale in the next week They've already announced the priority rules for Arsenal, so it won't affect it unless they retract the earlier decision. Stevenage will probably use the same loyalty points, so anyone who went to City will get priority, but that's purely speculation on my part.
ladysaint Posted 20 August, 2012 Posted 20 August, 2012 So 1,200 allocation for Stevenage and guess there were about 2k at Man City can see this ticket thing getting out of hand soon and needing a maths degree to work things out.
saintdaz Posted 20 August, 2012 Posted 20 August, 2012 does this help? http://www.goal.com/en-gb/match/90765/stevenage-fc-vs-southampton/preview
Sour Mash Posted 20 August, 2012 Posted 20 August, 2012 They've already announced the priority rules for Arsenal, so it won't affect it unless they retract the earlier decision. Stevenage will probably use the same loyalty points, so anyone who went to City will get priority, but that's purely speculation on my part. It could affect allocation of tickets for Arsenal. There'll still be close to 1k tickets left after those that went to Man City have bought theirs. It is possible then that those that went to Stevenage, but not City, might get priority over those that did neither.
fish fingers Posted 20 August, 2012 Posted 20 August, 2012 Stevenage have just put their ticket details up, so expect ours shortly. £15/20
Neil Posted 20 August, 2012 Posted 20 August, 2012 From Stevenage OS: "Away Fans: Please note that away fans will also need to register to purchase tickets" Suggests Saints fans can try buying tickets from Stevenage after we've sold out.
Griffo Posted 20 August, 2012 Posted 20 August, 2012 You have to buy on Stevenage's ticket website. Bit weird, so I presume this means no loyalty points will be awarded seeing as Saints won't be able to track who's bought them?
stevegrant Posted 20 August, 2012 Posted 20 August, 2012 It seems a bit odd that we're relying on a club who were in non-league just over two years ago to sell tickets on our behalf.
Nexstar Posted 20 August, 2012 Posted 20 August, 2012 It seems a bit odd that we're relying on a club who were in non-league just over two years ago to sell tickets on our behalf. That is effectively the level at which our ticket office operates.
fish fingers Posted 20 August, 2012 Posted 20 August, 2012 Very odd, but easy to do. Just bought ours, took 5 mins.
stockportsaint Posted 20 August, 2012 Posted 20 August, 2012 At best. Frankly very disappointed with our ticket office this season already. Won't go into details but they've not covered themselves in glory so far. It's as though we're still in League One.
Ewell Posted 20 August, 2012 Posted 20 August, 2012 Ordered mine, pretty painless but I would be ****ed off if I was a season ticket holder who missed out on a ticket if we do manage to sell out.
ladysaint Posted 20 August, 2012 Posted 20 August, 2012 Got 6 max they would let me buy quite easy once I found out where on the site to register.
Hemel Saint Posted 20 August, 2012 Posted 20 August, 2012 Got 6 max they would let me buy quite easy once I found out where on the site to register. You can 'register' when you get to Check-Out stage..
View From The Top Posted 20 August, 2012 Posted 20 August, 2012 Bought our 6. Took minutes. Happy days.
Kenilworthy Posted 20 August, 2012 Posted 20 August, 2012 Got my 2. But what a shambles letting them be sold by the home club's website with no notice. Lucky I went on the OS just by chance. There are going to be some very disappointed people. Didn't the ticket office learn anything from the Brighton debacle? Also we don't get loyalty points.
Dan Posted 20 August, 2012 Posted 20 August, 2012 Just bought 5. Very easy and effortless, saints could learn alot from this.
Eric The Red Posted 20 August, 2012 Posted 20 August, 2012 Yep, also just got three, minimum of fuss and plenty left
Michelle Posted 20 August, 2012 Posted 20 August, 2012 Like being able to pick exact seats. Dislike the lack of clarity for ambulant and enabler disabled. Something to get checked out with Stevenage tomorrow.
The9 Posted 20 August, 2012 Posted 20 August, 2012 It could affect allocation of tickets for Arsenal. There'll still be close to 1k tickets left after those that went to Man City have bought theirs. It is possible then that those that went to Stevenage, but not City, might get priority over those that did neither. True, but as they can't be bothered to even sell tickets and won't be able to confirm who's got them, they don't appear to have allocated any loyalty points to it, which is frankly bizarre when daft-ass games away to League One teams are exactly the kind of matches to judge loyalty on. But it's not entirely unexpected.
The9 Posted 20 August, 2012 Posted 20 August, 2012 Also bizarre, the article about Stevenage tickets is claiming to be 9 hours old, which would have seen it online at around 1pm. It definitely definitely was not there at 5pm because a couple of us checked. What's going on with the Content Management on that site ?

I expect it includes the ability to change the displayed publish time, although this would usually be used for articles that are embargoed until a certain date/time, rather than backdating something that's been tardily released later than it should have been.
Dan Posted 20 August, 2012 Posted 20 August, 2012 Just had a quick count up, nearly 250 sold so far. Well over 1000 left for anyone still wanting to go...
Berkshire Saint Posted 20 August, 2012 Posted 20 August, 2012 Anyone else struggling to get through to the payment method? It gets to some 'SagePay' website and then doesn't get any further when I attempt to choose my card type. Or am I just being stupid...?

The9 Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 So, what kind of cruddy reserve team do you reckon we'll put out? At least we'll get to see Tadanari Lee, Seaborne and Stephens and Gazzaniga.

But it's not entirely unexpected. Agreed, don't think any of us were expecting to see tickets sold this way! Got to hand it to our ticket office, they keep us on our toes.

Don't think it'll be too bad at all - Sharp, Lee, Chaplow, De Ridder, Richardson, Shaw, Hammond will all need game time, plus any possible new signings.
MadDogMatt Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 Very easy to buy as others have said although a strange option to use their website Given the teething problems with the official site I do recommend signing up to the clubs Twitter feed and selecting the text option Fastest way to get official news, including this ticket info at 6 last night
The Cat Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 Considering we are buying these through Stevenage I'm presuming we don't get any extra loyalty points (or whatever they are) added to our account for this? Also, and maybe I'm just being thisck here, but can we see online how many points we have? I can look at my transaction history but can't find anything to do with what points have been gained.

Was looking for this yesterday. No sign of it.
ladysaint Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 I think you have to work out the points yourself from your history so as at today I presume everyone that went to Man City will have 15 points if their man city ticket is on their history and then you will have to add the points for Wigan on after the game on Saturday, obviously the club will be able to run some sort of report which will give them this information immediately.
stevegrant Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 £13 return on the train from Kings Cross as well, not too bad.
Mattio Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 Dispite being down the road from MK it takes over 2 hours to get there on train from here, and I have to go via London... Think I'll drive.
This Charming Man Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 Has anyone gone through and counted how many tickets we've sold?
ladysaint Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 Had a look earlier today and plenty left didn't count them though, block C was popular.
Griffo Posted 21 August, 2012 Posted 21 August, 2012 Has anyone gone through and counted how many tickets we've sold? 439.
dannysfc Posted 23 August, 2012 Posted 23 August, 2012 Am having difficulty of registering on the Stevenage website to get tickets for the Saints game for Tuesday so can someone kindly leave the link for it on here for me as that would be Good as I'd like to get one for it? Thanks!

ladysaint Posted 23 August, 2012 Posted 23 August, 2012 Has anyone received theirs yet, I havent hopefully will come tomorrow.
