Noodles34 Posted 13 September, 2016 Share Posted 13 September, 2016 Anyone know if the postage is per ticket i.e. I ordered for a group of us and was not charged the postage. So will each person get charged the postage and ticket posted to their addresses or all posted to one address i.e. the person who ordered the tickets and therefore one postage charge. did you manage to get all your F&F on one booking then? It ususally comes automatically for me but on this one it just gave me one ticket option, or was i doing something wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fborosaint Posted 13 September, 2016 Share Posted 13 September, 2016 Just a quick one if anyone's after a cheaper alternative to flying direct to Milan- flights to Genoa are £84 return with BA; followed by a £24 (roughly) return train (which takes about 90 mins), or £25 a day to hire a car (which is about an hour and 45 drive). Flights are from Gatwick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericb Posted 13 September, 2016 Share Posted 13 September, 2016 yeah, as i said its ususally automatic and the way the tickets were selling i really didnt want to mess around too much, just get the tickets but its annoying. I'd pay seat numbers no attention mate, once you're there no one is going to sit in their "seats" anyway (plus they're not seats they're bits of plastic bolted to the concrete), the numbers are definitely not seat numbers btw, just indicators of confirmation, so you can pretty easily tell how many we've sold from it. For what it's worth i know people who booked on linked tickets but the "seat" numbers were apart anyway, i think that just shows how crazy the demand must be. Also anyone know what we're up to on Be'er Sheeva? Would be great if we could push that into the 500 mark today too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JRM Posted 13 September, 2016 Share Posted 13 September, 2016 Was anyone else not charged a postage fee at time of booking? We've sold over 1500 already. i wouldn't pay too much attention to that number, unlike Be'er Sheva we would have allocated tickets to one side for corporate sponsors and the official trip (which includes a match ticket) so like Midgetland they won't want to risk selling all the tickets and be left with a half empty flight, so they will have reserved part of the allocation for the official package.

The9 Posted 13 September, 2016 Share Posted 13 September, 2016 Milan tickets bought, looks like they're flying out the door as mine was seat number 1035! I suspect they didn't start at 0 for this one as yours is the lowest number I've seen. Anyone know if the postage is per ticket i.e. I ordered for a group of us and was not charged the postage. So will each person get charged the postage and ticket posted to their addresses or all posted to one address i.e. the person who ordered the tickets and therefore one postage charge. According to the original club ticketing information the postage is per order, but they don't appear to have charged the £6.50 for it on the ticket order for some reason. I wonder how many people are chancing it using someone else's season ticket... None if they've got any sense, given that they have to provide all the person info - but I guess if they had that person's ID and could get to the address on their online account... I'd pay seat numbers no attention mate, once you're there no one is going to sit in their "seats" anyway (plus they're not seats they're bits of plastic bolted to the concrete), the numbers are definitely not seat numbers btw, just indicators of confirmation, so you can pretty easily tell how many we've sold from it.

Also anyone know what we're up to on Be'er Sheeva? Would be great if we could push that into the 500 mark today too. 500 would be an absolute miracle based on the numbers we've sold so far. We were just over the 200 mark early yesterday, and even though there are LOADS of people now eligible (every member as of this morning) I've only had one person who I didn't know was interested who's told me they suddenly going when they weren't before, so I don't think there's much casual interest from people who don't usually go. On the Be'er Sheeva front, has any more come of the club's phone calls to find out the interest in running transport to and from Tel Aviv? I haven't had a call yet and have not seen anything more concrete on the club's website ?? I haven't heard anything further. I was panicking that I hadn't bought my passport number to work but apparently we're good as long as we book today so I now no longer need to find an excuse to go home and grab it! Yeah you're alright until 8:30am tomorrow when the eligibility gets reset in the system. Are Saints in the blue section of seats for Milan game ? Yes. At the back.

JRM Posted 13 September, 2016 Share Posted 13 September, 2016 official trip according to this does not included match ticket http://www.tmgsport.com/travel/southampton-fc/ well that's strange as on the official site, http://www.saintsfc.co.uk it says; OFFICIAL AWAY TRAVEL We will be offering official away travel to the San Siro. The package is priced at £329 and includes your match ticket, return flights from Bournemouth to Milan on the day of the game (flying at 7am and returning at midnight), coach transfers from St Mary’s to Bournemouth airport and all ground transfers in Milan, as well as the coach back from Bournemouth airport to St Mary’s.

stevegrant Posted 13 September, 2016 Share Posted 13 September, 2016 Sponsors and corporates jumping the queue shouldn't be remotely surprising - they've had priority access to away tickets for years. Similarly, supporters groups with a genuine regular fanbase also get access to tickets based on their average sales per game over the course of a season. As an example, I believe London Saints sold, on average, around 35 tickets per game last season, so would fully expect them to be entitled to that amount for Milan (perhaps more if they can demonstrate those applying through them qualify), and obviously they'd have had as many as they wanted for Be'er Sheva. Suspect they won't get their full amount for Prague, so Terry will presumably have to allocate them to those who went the most last season. As far as I can tell, most of the officially recognised supporters groups DON'T get ticket allocations for away games anymore, mainly as they just don't sell enough tickets to justify it. Cardiff Saints sold so few in recent years (no idea how active they are anymore, but suspect most of them decided to sort their own arrangements) that their allocation for each away game was cut to 1 per game last season and is now 0 because they didn't even use that allocation.

RoswellSaint Posted 13 September, 2016 Share Posted 13 September, 2016 As a member, I can buy a ticket to the Be'er Sheva game as of today. Looking at airfares yesterday, it was about $3000 (approx 2000 pounds). Suddenly today it's down to $1100. For a chance to see Saints in Europe, I have to do it. Then figure hotel etc!

Pretty sure the ticket site won't be changed, it's a separate third-party system. To be fair to them, they've made a lot of improvements recently on the design of the ticket site so it works on mobiles, tablets, etc, but getting actual functionality improvements will be trickier (and probably more expensive).

Saint Billy Posted 13 September, 2016 Share Posted 13 September, 2016 For me the Europa League is the defining moment for Puel, I am holding out the vague hope that his persistence with this diamond formation is because he feels it will work better against European clubs. There were signs it was starting to work against Arsenal but the fact is our front line will still be impotent whoever we play without a rejig of the formation.

It's vaguely possible that we could have been up to 700 by 10am with a "head start" from block booking numbers given that the system seems at best random as hell when it comes to assigning numbers to groups - it can clearly process lots of purchasing sessions concurrently given the gaps in numbers on same group bookings. Suffice to say in the last couple of days from comments on here some of the ticket booking system logic has come into question and I might consider testing it at some point for an exploit I think I may have spotted...
