Griffo Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 any news on what our allocation is for this one yet ? Of course not.
terrypward Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 Worryingly, my credit card seems to be £325 down after a lot of attempts at buying 5 tickets in various combinations of customer numbers... may be worth checking this if you were getting the "refund successful" message...

Nothing's out of mine yet but I'll take a look later.
Griffo Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 Seems like I've paid a few times for the tickets too. F*ck sake.
terrypward Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 Seems like I've paid a few times for the tickets too. F*ck sake. Hopefully it's just a hold on the money rather than a proper deduction and the "refund successful" message was accurate!
Sour Mash Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 Seems like I've paid a few times for the tickets too. F*ck sake. New season, same old ticket system.
Griffo Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 It's cleaned me out and I need to change f*cking money up today because we're flying out for Celta Vigo tomorrow! F*cking c*nts ticket office!

Saw rumours (on the ever-reliable Facebook) that we only had an initial allocation of 1700, which seems ridiculous given that it's not that far away and tickets are only £25.

Hopefully if only 'initial allocation' we will get more then. I can't buy until Monday, hope the tickets don't sell out before then. That is, of course, if they have my purchase history for last season, which I'm not confident of!

That is, of course, if they have my purchase history for last season, which I'm not confident of! If done properly, it should always be an "initial allocation" of a smaller amount, see how they sell in the first day or two and then the club has the opportunity to make a decision on the remainder. It's never clear how the clubs agree the process behind the scenes though.

Maybe they are basing it on last seasons first game - Obviously not comparable on distance, cost or day.

SaintNeil90 Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 No, don't go to football on my own, but have the savvy to work out how to get tickets and stand with my mates, appears you don't unfortunately. The idea that someone who has been to zero away games last season should have the same priority for this match as someone that went to loads of aways last season is quite a silly one really isn't it, being based purely on what would suit you and your personal circumstances. Appears I do... I have a contact in the ticket office. I can get tickets even when sold out I prefer to do it properly though and use that as a last resort. Your 'savvy' way risks missing out if demand is high.

Of course you do, that's why you're panicking about the selling policy not bein completely in-line with what would suit you and your mates.
Saint Garrett Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 Of course you do, that's why you're panicking about the selling policy not bein completely in-line with what would suit you and your mates. TBF, I know him and he can get tickets through someone at the TO - not that it's right!
Sour Mash Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 TBF, I know him and he can get tickets through someone at the TO - not that it's right! It doesn't surprise me, as his attitude appears to be that he and his mates should have priority over those that have attended away games more regularly.
terrypward Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 FWIW I called my card provider. Saints had been in a few times for the money but then only completed the entries for which the purchase was successful. The rest of the money will be held back from my available funds for a week or so.
The Cat Posted 2 August, 2013 Posted 2 August, 2013 We have plenty left to sell according to a bloke at the ticket office today. I asked if we'd taken the full 3000 allocation and he said "it's something like that."

I asked if we'd taken the full 3000 allocation and he said "it's something like that." In a weeks time they'll be a number of wristslitters on here claiming "our support is sh*t" we will then go on and sell-out and it will all go quiet until the next away when the scenario will be repeated. Saints fans traditionally leave it late.

I asked if we'd taken the full 3000 allocation and he said "it's something like that." Glad to hear that, I'm after 4 at general sale, if it gets to that stage. Don't all go crazy folks....there are 18 more aways to go...
Lord Duckhunter Posted 2 August, 2013 Posted 2 August, 2013 Has everyone not been charged a fee? I wasn't on first day, but my mate got one today and reckons he was .
bangkoksaint Posted 3 August, 2013 Posted 3 August, 2013 Am I correct in saying you can't book by phone for these tickets?
Georgie Posted 3 August, 2013 Posted 3 August, 2013 Am I correct in saying you can't book by phone for these tickets? Doesn't seem like it I rang up earlier to check my away purchases from last year were registered and there wasn't an option to book the tiks over the phone. Oh there are plenty of tiks left for this one as well according to the guy at tik office.
Pahars_Legend Posted 3 August, 2013 Posted 3 August, 2013 They don't do bookings for away games on the phone.
John Boy Saint Posted 3 August, 2013 Posted 3 August, 2013 Not having looked at the buying regime and relying on a mate who normally gets away tickets for us as I was passing SMS I said that I would go and pick them up. Went through all the palaver then got told you can't have your tickets as you didn't do 4 away games last year: oops "I can still sell you your friend Simons ticket, but not you or your wife's" " would you like me to put that through for you, and you can come back on Monday for the other 2". I thought this was a strange comment in that it was obvious we wanted to be sat together simply by me asking for 3 tickets at the beginning. It was almost like a smirking "your mates ok but tough on you". i should have played my Joker and shown him my Llagostera v Saints ticket that is still in my wallet to double our tally as reward for making the effort to see Saints in Spain!!
Stevie61163 Posted 7 August, 2013 Posted 7 August, 2013 Now sold out according to the OS. does anyone know if there are any plans to apply for more. and what happened to the "everyone that wants one will get one" brigade

sotonjoe Posted 7 August, 2013 Posted 7 August, 2013 Now sold out according to the OS. does anyone know if there are any plans to apply for more. and what happened to the "everyone that wants one will get one" brigade yeh, i tried first thing and got sold out, but then tried half an hour later and they were back on sale again so brought some. madness!
Saint Garrett Posted 7 August, 2013 Posted 7 August, 2013 I hope the club isn't stupid enough to not take the full allocation!! First game of the season, not that far away, cheap tickets, and a game which was on a Monday night last season...madness if we've not got overflow for this IMO.
Restark19 Posted 7 August, 2013 Posted 7 August, 2013 Southampton FC Tickets for our Barclays Premier League opener at West Bromwich Albion on Saturday 17th August have now sold out. Thanks for your excellent support! #saintsfc
oldhamsaint Posted 7 August, 2013 Posted 7 August, 2013 I have one adult ticket spare at face value (plus£1 booking fee = £26). If interested post contact details on here as I can't receive PM's.

100%Red&White Posted 7 August, 2013 Posted 7 August, 2013 we only took 2,200 of the 3,000 according to hants police,hth I hope the club isn't stupid enough to not take the full allocation!! First game of the season, not that far away, cheap tickets, and a game which was on a Monday night last season...madness if we've not got overflow for this IMO. 2,500 according to a post on the 'Saints Away Supporters' forum, which, as Granty suggests on there, is likely to be the full allocation as the capacity at the Hawthorns is only a shade over 26k. As they are allowed to take segregated seats out of the visitors allocation then 2,500 is about right. Let the pleading for tickets begin.

LVSaint Posted 7 August, 2013 Posted 7 August, 2013 Oh ****! I would gladly buy up to 4 (at least 2) from anyone who can't make it.
Red Alert Posted 7 August, 2013 Posted 7 August, 2013 There is no booking fee I had to pay my £1 booking fee for my internet purchase. Edit: However glad to see this sell out as first game of the season and at £25 a pop its a decent price too.
Colinjb Posted 7 August, 2013 Posted 7 August, 2013 So much for this game then! A shame it's already sold out. Good show from our support though.
Saint Garrett Posted 7 August, 2013 Posted 7 August, 2013 I didn't pay anything for my Internet purchase last week! Maybe it was just a mistake and it's been put back on now!
Ziggy Posted 7 August, 2013 Posted 7 August, 2013 I didn't pay anything for my Internet purchase last week! Maybe it was just a mistake and it's been put back on now! I got charged when I bought on Monday. Irritating but the tickets are very cheap.
dannysfc Posted 7 August, 2013 Posted 7 August, 2013 Well I'm OK then going by that they've sold out as my older brother kindly managed to get me & my mate 1 who I go with as well as who I have a ST with as well and now the next step is to book the Trains to & from the game as I see that tickets are going for £6 from Euston to New Street for a return I think-(?!) but will look into it though tbh as I was thinking of going from Soton Parkway to New Street instead of London but we'l see....!!! Where will people be Pre-match drinking before the game & I take it we'l be in Red & White then as well just so I know what kit to wear to it? Thanks! Bring It On!!! COYR & Saints Till I Die!!!
Dan Posted 8 August, 2013 Posted 8 August, 2013 Booked trains but left buying tickets to late, need a few so will take whatever people have. Adults, kids, seniors anything you have got. Please email dan_armstrong@hotmail.co.uk
