Its the exact same issues and they don't fix them. How much is the Ticketmaster deal costing the club and we still cant sort simple stuff out.

What clubs with professional set ups rely on people picking up tickets for away games? Why is it stuff that isn't needed is prioritised over things that would make a real difference?

This is what happens when its the same people year after year making the same mistakes. People celebrate these barnacles because they've been at the club along time rather than what value they actually bring.

The Chief Exec was on the board when we were knocking on the door on the NLN, lets face it we'd probably be there still if the club didn't get lucky with some geezer purchasing a load of shares (that CFC has to pay intertest on).

It's amazing to me no one scan see that any success is despite the current incumbents not because of. The club isnt a charity anymore, time it realised its 2024.

Try being on the end of these poor decisions season after season and you'll get fed up to. Why do the club not give the slightest F about fans who live more than 10 minutes from the ground?

Hey up Town Fan, am I missing the point but posting out tickets is labour intensive and is proportionally expensive for us so they offer a collect on the match day from a club rep? Seems to have worked for CFC91 in the 10 years that he was an exile.

What happens is you end up having to collect them from.the away ground. You very often have to guess where the tickets are going to be, you have to wait for them to turn up and it's incredibly inconvenient having to spend extra time jumping through hoops when in any other situation you'd be in the pub relaxing.

Anyway no need I'll just watch the games online abroad... oh hang on.

Gonna be loads of people miss out including season ticket holders for some away matches. That is going to be hilarious.

If the away capacity is considerably less than the amount of season ticket holders, then yes, it?s a distinct possibility that on some occasions folk might not get a ticket, not really sure how that?s anyone?s fault.

Town fan will not be happy until he is told an arrangement is in place where he is guaranteed a ticket for every game and John Croot will personally deliver it to a destination of his choice.

If you believe the Kirk's interviews, then one of them is at the club 6 days a week and it would appear he is the de facto decision maker. So do you think they are lying about the situation, or that he is just another barnacle?

So in your eyes the Kirk's are geezers that have purchased controlling interest in the clubs and are somehow charging interest on the shares? ?. Perhaps you are actually referring to the their earlier loans (that they state will never be called in) and you are deliberately being misleading?

Learn what a preference share is and then come back to me.

Keep an eye on who always seems to get an away ticket also, all season ticket holders are equal but.... well you know how that goes.

Preference shareholders along with any others only get paid if a business operates at a profit. When was the last time CFC made a profit?

You just have a beef with Croot.

Why don't you clearly and simply lay out what you think the procedure should be and send it to the Fans' Forum?

OH YES, but we had a proper CEO back then, Chris Turnip

Anyway, getting back on topic. Can anyone tell me what is our allocation for this game and when do they go on general sale please?

I need to book a hotel, but no point if I can't get a ticket!!

Usual allocation in SE corner is about 2700 and we have an extra 2 blocks in the south stand so guessing 3300 ish. Won?t sell that out but might get close so anyone who wants a ticket can have one

I genuinely thought that preference shares pay out dividends, not interest. You learn something new every day. Don't you?
