saints_is_the_south Posted 3 April, 2009 Posted 3 April, 2009 cant get through!! aaaaaaaaggggggghhhhhhh Hope you did in the end but if you couldn't get through then surely it means they are now very very busy at the TO and in the call centers after people have finished work which is good news.
supaimpy_returns Posted 3 April, 2009 Posted 3 April, 2009 right , I've been to the ground today, work trip from Dorset to Bristol and back via St Marys! been a stayaway because of Red Face (been an away fan instead) but today bought two tickets, going to take my Dad who's not been in years so instaed of buying one ticket I bought two and I'll do the same for the next home match COYR
saints_is_the_south Posted 3 April, 2009 Posted 3 April, 2009 Any news on ticket sales as 8pm approaches? The total was 23.5k at 4pm I would like to think that they have managed to sell another 2k in 4 hours atleast.
docker-p Posted 3 April, 2009 Posted 3 April, 2009 Well I've bought 4 extra tickets today for family whether they want to go or not.
StAndy1970 Posted 3 April, 2009 Posted 3 April, 2009 When i bought mine at 530, i asked how many had been sold and was told they have 5000 left, so that is 27000 and that is the figure i was told.
Griffo Posted 3 April, 2009 Posted 3 April, 2009 When i bought mine at 530, i asked how many had been sold and was told they have 5000 left, so that is 27000 and that is the figure i was told. No, as about 2,000 is just for Charlton's end and segregation. So at best that's 25k sold, and there's also the normal gap between our lot in the Northam and Charlton, unless block 43 has been opened yet.
bigtonesfc Posted 3 April, 2009 Posted 3 April, 2009 No, as about 2,000 is just for Charlton's end and segregation.

Charlton have sold less than 1000 tickets,room for them to budge up!!
Alain Perrin Posted 3 April, 2009 Posted 3 April, 2009 (edited) Get over yourself. Sanctimonious c**k jockey. At the the start of the season you and equally deluded mongs like mongi, were spouting off how the boycotters numbered in their mere hundreds and would have no impact and now you want to blame them for the demise of SFC. You were wrong then and it's no surprise that you're wrong now. Ahhh the spirit of harmony. Just as there were many factors why attendances were down (including Rupert Lowe), there are many factors why Saints should see full houses for the last three games (not least because they could be the LAST three games). Also, calling somebody wrong when your last sentence is a tautology, kind of doesn't work. Edited 3 April, 2009 by Alain Perrin Rising above it

Whats going on Radio Hants said at 6pm last night 24000 sold so we have only sold another 1000 today??? Think if its nota sell out which I dont think it will be that will not impress any investors

Thats what i was actually told by the girl on the phone at 530.
TijuanaTim Posted 3 April, 2009 Posted 3 April, 2009 Could we say 25 +, someone (who thinks he's ITK) told me to expect 28,000??
AwaySaint1 Posted 3 April, 2009 Author Posted 3 April, 2009 Many thanks David. It's so refreshing to have such open communication, it has such a positive impact on all concerned. Now go blow your nose.

Well said that man. My thoughts 100%
Ticket Office Posted 4 April, 2009 Posted 4 April, 2009 current figure (at just after 8am) is exactly 24,000 tickets sold for today. We have 4200 tickets left to sell before all areas currently open are full. We would then have to see how far we could safely move into the "away" areas. We should be open here at St Marys before 9am. The phone lines and online will be available until midday. The ticket desk in the Marlands will be available until kick off.

But anyway.. have got a ST in block 4, standing up the top there, but I'd like to move nearer to the away support today, into block 3 for more standing/singing and the better atmosphere, are 1-3 completely sold out? If not i'll probably just walk across and stand in an empty space somewhere?

Lets hope those 4200 get snapped up quickly this morning & we can start eating into block 43. I can't actually remember the last time we used 43, play off season maybe? Any chance of an another update around half 10?

Channon's Sideburns Posted 4 April, 2009 Posted 4 April, 2009 is anyone else trying to get through ****ing nightmare. what is lukers email? Yep...would have thought they wouldbe open earlier....have tried non stop since 9am..

Channon's Sideburns Posted 4 April, 2009 Posted 4 April, 2009 Atleast it means they are busy i guess which is good news! Could mean that walk ups have started, but we should have more on the phones surely!!!

Ticket Office Posted 4 April, 2009 Posted 4 April, 2009 Hi All I know there are issues getting through via the telephones etc. Hopefully this will make it clearer: 1) Phones. Seriously doing the best they can for us. The staff here at SFC didn’t know about the events of this week until after the announcement, so we have had no time to organise extra cover. We are trying our best and can only ask that you stick with us 2) Ticket Office. We have just 3 fulltime members of staff and these and some extra’s we have bought in have been on the windows non-stop, in some cases for 12 hours. This means that emails to us and phone calls are proving very difficult to get a response from. Again, as in (1) above, we have been caught out and are trying our best Please stick with us. I am sorry for all frustrations caused

RedWillie Posted 4 April, 2009 Posted 4 April, 2009 changed our plans..we want to go but can't get through !!!
big al Posted 4 April, 2009 Posted 4 April, 2009 Going to the stadium with my son and his girlfriend for the first time this season. COYR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Daren W Posted 4 April, 2009 Posted 4 April, 2009 Must be getting near to full as Northam etc sold out...
Ticket Office Posted 4 April, 2009 Posted 4 April, 2009 just under 26k sold so far. We have mainly just the Kingsland and Itchen corners, plus blocks 43 and 44 open for sale now (Northam Stand). There are other areas but these are mainly the odd single seat. Looking like the final gate will be around 28k at this stage unless many are leaving it until the last minute to buy

Norm Posted 4 April, 2009 Posted 4 April, 2009 Ticket Office, are you there? Please save me one ticket in the Itchen corner! Be there around 2.15.
RedWillie Posted 4 April, 2009 Posted 4 April, 2009 Good luck to all those going today. Circumstances beyond my control have dictated otherwise. Already got my Burnley Ticket...but this afternoon just blow the lid off the place for the lads. I'll have my Mp3 glued to my ear... Up the Saints
