If you like the look of under 15's in too tight capri pants?
Why yes I do! |

To be fair to the club, they almost refused to sell me a ticket ove rthe phone based on the fact I hadn't bought one already this season. Thankfully I have an SN postcode!
A few Leeds fans will inevitably get in the home end but it seems like the club are doing all they can to stop it. Wouldn't have been a bad idea to make it all-ticket, unless they have and I've missed it?!
When I bought our tickets earlier this week, they were happy to take my credit card details but wouldn't take my name & address for precisely the same reason. (I live 60 miles from Swindon, in Hampshire.) One of the friends I am going with tomorrow lives in Wootton Bassett, and the ticket office was happy to take his details. But what confuses me is that (unless I am missing something here) I could have opened up the Swindon telephone directory and given them a random name & address. I think they would have been happy with that too. |

Ugh I've had all sorts of trouble with this today.
I've been on their database for years and years, but all of a sudden I'm not this season because of a "computer upgrade". Now, this doesn't sound much of an upgrade if they've lost all their customers' details, does it?
So I ring in, old guy Brian refuses point blank to sell me tickets as my postcode is in Bristol: "All the Leeds fans are saying they've been going for 20 years," he tells me when I protest over how long I've been going to games.
Anyway, I ring reception to complain and - fair play - they rang me straight back and got me on the database.
Then, four hours later the ticket office finally call back, I get tickets ... Mind you, I'm stuck in some pretty shit ones in the front of the Arkells ... but that's my fault for having not rung sooner!
I'm grateful to the admin bit of the club for sorting it - but you've got to ask what the hell is going on in the ticket office if they manage to lose so many customers' details ... There's no warning on the official website that we need to be pre-registered on the "upgraded" database, or that there's any police restriction on non-Swindon postcodes. If I had known I would have sorted tickets much sooner.
Poor.

Nobody is on the database any more. I'd have thought it would have been easy enough to transfer it all across but apparantly not. I spent about 5-10 minutes on the phone the other day because they wanted to add my name, address, phone number, email address and date of birth to my 'account' on the new system. I suppose we'll all be glad in a couple of years time when it makes life easier for us though

I was grateful last season when I was on the old database ... I'm not grateful this season when, apparently, I'm not a fan any more ... |

i think they forgot about compatibility when upgrading the system, presumably the old database couldn't merge with the other. which surprises me cos i swear it was all DOS based a couple of years back...
i know a pole who has got me a ticket.
