Title: Town End Sold Out?
Post by: DerbyRed on Friday, August 11, 2006, 12:44:10
I've just had a text from a mate saying that the Town End has sold out for tomorrow's game?  :shock:

Can anyone confirm or deny this?

Queue at the ticket office was fairly long at 12pm today, so I'd imagine so.

Apparantly we're on for around 9,000 attendance  :shock:

I hope not, due to a series of confounding issues I can't source the funds necessary until after the ticket office closes.

of all the fucking times for the club to become popular.  I can't remember my pin number on the credit card, which means I can't use it.

I have no funds left in the bank account, so I can't use that.

The only option remaining was to get some cash off of the wife and purchase on the day, but now I have to spend an extra £5.  Fucking hell, bring back the 4500 crowds :wink:

I hate being poor

What credit card is it? Most of the decent ones let you view your pin online....unless you don't have t'internet access to the account of course!

9000 would be incredible, almost unbelievable for rochdale!!!! how things can change in football so quickly is remarkable, fingers crossed we win otherwise we'll be quickly back down to 5500

"Close to 9,000" in Swindon terms could be 8,501 so we'll keep hoping for now...

wipes brow, hopes for the best, thinks it might be worth dashing home and sorting out credit card pin number without alerting wife to my goings on.

if this continues, the club should consider shoving the away support on the bank and giving the arkells away section back to its rightful owner  :mrgreen:

You don't need a pin number at the box office you still have to sign the receipt.

Rob - could you not ring up and book your tickets ready for collection tomorrow?  Don't need a pin number when you do it over the phone!  :)

Damn, I can only buy my ticket tomorrow (due to being 6000 miles away at the moment, and flying back tonight).  ALso, I don't want to book it online or over the phone in case my flight is delayed and I miss the game

you use the card over the phone to confirm them and all you have to do is show it on collection if you pay over the phone just to make sure you're the same person.

That would work.

They don't check your pin number when you pick them up - they just check that the last 4 digits match what's on the receipt (which is stapled to the envelope!)!!   :D

In fact on Tuesday they didn't even check my card against the receipt - perhaps its because I look so trustworthy!!  :mrgreen:

just got my ticket and he said nationwide was nearly sold out too but then said they will be lucky to get as many as tuesday :shock:

think they get a bit confused down there

Well I heard that the crowd is expected to be the same (or thereabouts) as Tuesday. To be honest a second 7.5K crowd would be superb.

Maybe the town end and nationwide are close to selling out but no one is in the Arkells?

Arkells is a tricky one as has a lot of corporate tickets and also people involved with the club who get free tickets are always allocated in there.

Hard to tell in advance how many will be in there.

9000 would be awesome and I can only hope results stay positive between now and Brentford - the next time I will be able to go  :|

Well it wasn't sold out when I got there on Saturday, although I did get there early in case (and I wanted to sit in the Merlin for a bit as well).
