Title: More Cum Away
Post by: horlock07 on Friday, September 15, 2023, 12:51:33
How quick are the club at posting out tickets, got a mate who fancies this and on that basis I will probably get off my arse and go along but will need to order tickets online and depend on the club posting them so trying to judge how late I can leave ordering them.

Whenever i've bought tickets for away games I've had the tickets sent first class usually within a couple of days of purchasing. Not sure if that's still the case this season but i've found them generally very good.

Every time I have had tickets in the last 4 years or so I have had print at home e-tickets.

Ta, I'll probably book them this arvo or tomorrow so should be OK then.

Apologies to everyone, my attendance normally pretty much guarantees at best a crappy draw and normally a defeat!

Just for home tickets though right? Away tickets are usually the old fashioned card type rectangle ticket in physical form.

Even for away games? Every away game I've done over the last couple of years has been a physical ticket?

Visit the Eric Morecambe statue beforehand for a cleansing of any vibes of impending misfortune.

Yep, I have only done about 2 or 3 in 4 years and they are all print at home. Exeter, Plymouth Rovers.

Yeah - the club tweeted today they've sold 422 out of our allocated 600 so you should probably be ok.

I lived in Lancaster for 20 odd years on and off till we moved over here, been to see Eric way too many times, it will be a swift get into Morecambe and then a quick getaway!

Last time we went it was the PdC promotion season, don't think we were quite up then but it was close, a load of Town fans rolled up on a vintage bus - I suspect this year will be an altogether less joyous occasion.

Yeah, t'was seeing that which made me get off my arse and look at sorting something out!

Being a total fuckwit here, the ticketing website is only giving me an option to pick up the tickets from the club?

Maybe have to do battle with the phones on Monday.... or sit in the home end!

They always take them up on the Supporters Coach if booked late.
Never a problem and for peace of mind call them to arrange.

Book them and they will send up on the Coach Mate. They remove the post option from about a week as to avoid the shite postal system.
Always reliable and pick them up at the Morecambe Ticket office.

See you up there.

Anyone aware of why it's only seating and not the terrace behind the goal for this one? Last few times I've been we had the option of either

Just out of interest, if I book online will they automatically take them up if I don't pick up in the meantime or do I need to call the club to arrange it?

Presently having a wobble about attending as my attendance will invariably fuck up our 7 game unbeaten start!

Any tickets not collected will be taken up on the coach.

Yeah, we won at Morecambe in the PdC era, Paul Benson goal IIRC  :D Otherwise not so sure, seen a fair few draws and defeats at Carlisle, Stockport, Fleetwood, Crewe, Barrow a very late postponement at Accrington, a last minute missed penalty at Blackpool (from the home end!) and a couple of thumpings at Preston!
