Doctorkmt Posted 14 December, 2020 Share Posted 14 December, 2020 I wonder how many are excluded now. A few hundred? More? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldsarum Posted 15 December, 2020 Share Posted 15 December, 2020 At least 3 London Saints members who would have had tickets for Man City will not now get tickets, there must be quite a few others who travel down from London etc. who will miss out too.

JustinR Posted 15 December, 2020 Share Posted 15 December, 2020 Ticket office- if you are reading this... We've been excluded because we live in a tier 3 area. But this may change tomorrow because (in Bristol) the rates have dropped dramatically. Don't forget about us if we change to tier 2 :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odd. That's how it seems to work, if same as what I saw last week you can download his ticket and send on to him , but they need to do healthcare survey etc before game. Would be nice if they gave a bit more notice, especially for shift workers not easy to move work Saturday before Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenilworthy Posted 15 December, 2020 Share Posted 15 December, 2020 I wonder how long the situation with only four out of 20 PL clubs being allowed to have fans in the stadium will be allowed to continue? They always bang on about the "integrity of the competition". That doesn't really stack up with some teams having to play in empty stadiums and some not, even though Saints are going to be on of the privileged few. But maybe the decision will be made anyway when a national lockdown is reintroduced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Far enough away from city centre to not get too many shoppers but close enough to the stadium. Quite small though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We normally leave the car in Woolston and walk over the bridge because I'm tight and don't like to pay for the bridge or parking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not particularly in my experience. I think it was stipulated that early to give time to process everyone through but people still seemed to be arriving well past 10.30. Not sure how close the KO I would want to test it though! Also, some queues were being checked for ID but others weren't. HTH ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For Saturday my mate has 1.45, I have 2.15 so will be staggered from 1.30 onwards by the looks of things. I don’t think they were being strict on arrival times on Sunday, but queue at Purple gate was large just gone 11 on Sunday, up to top of steps on bridge, I was in ground by 11.30, so I wouldn’t leave it too late to turn up.

Ah, didn't realise they were staggered. We were both 10.30 arrivals. Thanks for letting me know as I would have just turned up ridiculously early for the City game as well!

SaintMB Posted 16 December, 2020 Share Posted 16 December, 2020 It’s just an attempt to stagger the crowds I think, nothing too firm. On Sunday we (blue gate) we’re all in one long queue anyway and only when we got to the gate did they ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully it's no bother heading down at 14:00/14:15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marc_saint Posted 16 December, 2020 Share Posted 16 December, 2020 So last week (Ahead of a Sunday match) everyone who was successful got an email on the Tuesday (There seemed to be loads of people on Twitter sharing their successful screenshots) and on Wednesday everyone who was unsuccessful was notified. This week ahead of a Saturday game there certainly doesnt seem to be many people shouting about being successful and we've not had an email either way. Are Saints being slow this week (ahead of the possible tier changes?) or have I not been one of the chosen ones again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Garrett Posted 17 December, 2020 Author Share Posted 17 December, 2020 With multiple places being moved into Tier 3, does that now mean they’ll be unable to go on Saturday? What happens to those tickets already allocated to those people moving into tier 3 areas on Saturday morning? Will club re-allocate to others?

The email sent to everyone who has tickets said that people who were allocated tickets but are now in a Tier 3 area should contact the club for a refund, which rather suggests the club won't necessarily be pro-active on this. No idea how that'll play out, to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
