Barnsley (A) match thread Sat Aug 5th

It did the same with me on a few occasions last season , tried to purchase adult ticket but only way of getting a ticket online was to purchase ‘concession’ . Told ticket office about it a couple of times but obviously still not rectified at the moment.

I was 62 last season (on a concession at VP ST) and went 14 away games and not once did it make me have a concession (over 65) for any away tickets.

Obviously the system knew it was me and was just being awkward...

If anyone is thinking of going to the ticket office for Barnsley tickets this afternoon (Monday) I believe they have sold out for the moment unless you have bought online already.

Another 1000 coming later in the week, you can pay on the day, not sure if it is a bit more though.

£2 extra for adult tickets I think.

Anyone know if they are having any more coach tickets for Barnsley. Only 2 coaches and both are fully booked

[Playa Amodores]

We had problems last season with tickets, why are we still having problems.?

What problems?  Barnsley sent the first batch of 1000 and we sold out. We have asked for more and they are on their way?

because going to football match would not be the same without ticket problems. Its part of the customer experience

Olly, I phoned today because I’m having problems with booking five home games on line as well as a membership, I understand that they’re busy. The phone rang an automated service kicked in telling me that my call was important and I was third in the queue. I heard this message three times the call was over five minutes and then I got cut off.

I can't go to this. I notice Barnsley are not that fancied in the Sky Betting this season. I haven't looked into their Summer except the change of manager.

I've just found out that we have the same ref that sent conlon and Robinson off at Lincoln plus the Lincoln keeper in last season's match. That ref basically cost Clarke his job and nearly helped relegate us. He sent conlon off when we were 2 1 up for basically nothing and we went on to lose 3 2 and the sending off was rescinded a couple of days later but it still went down as a defeat and cost Clarke his job. So this ref appointment means we have no chance expect 2 vale players be sent off and 3 penalties to Barnsley in a 5 nil home win. Also we have had this ref 4 times and drew 2 and lost 2 so our record with him is terrible.

Lost Mads Anderson their stellar centre half and haven't recruited overly well, on top of that they have been charged by the EFL for multiple breaches so could be hit with a points deduction.
