Northampton 1st game. Tickets


Recommended Posts

I know people will think I am a bit of moaner and apologies if it had been advertised but why was it not common knowledge that tickets were going on sale today.  Surely there could have been something posted yesterday to indicate this was happening and for people to make arrangements.  I had a phone call from a friend just after 12.00 to say they had been on sale.  I got at the Vale just after 1.00pm and then queued up maybe just over an hour before getting my tickets.  I managed to get 3 tickets, all season ticket holders, they were asking for their name and addresses at the ticket office.  

I think people will be surprised and this will be a sell-out, people have been starved of football for a long time and these tickets will be gone this week.

I'm not going but seems to be a general shambles around the sale. No online sales? Are we in the 20th century?

The whole concept of traipsing down to VP is nice for some who have the time I guess, but an absolute faff/inconceivable for a lot. Assume it's to get people to turn up for the away kit thing. Queuing 1 hour+ for tickets for a League 2 game is daft. I was hoping I'd never have to do it again after Salford in 19/20.

That's not to mention an hour's notice on a weekday and not enough people on the phones. Classic Vale. Get online ticket buying set up, ideally with a loyalty scheme points system for ST holders + regular buyers (as has been mooted for ages); hire staff to focus on phone sales for obviously busy games; give several days notice for when sales will open so people can play ahead.

That was a complete shambles by Vale. We need to get this sort of thing sorted. It's not hard.

Why cant we buy online? Why cant we phone?

Why just randomly decide they are on sale today?

And another, why does the shop have to shut for about 3 days every time we have a new top?

I'll have my gripe , sorry.

Was in Liverpool today on a stag do, my fellow season ticket holder ( son ) was at work until 18.00. 

So the impromptu announcement caused much kerfuffle. 

Thankfully due to a friend I've managed to get two . 

Very poor from Vale this rapid announcement, hope that everyone has managed to get one.

Suitably unimpressed, thought these days of p**s poor communication were a thing of the past
