Don’t understand why I (as a ST holder) should be able to buy 2 tickets

Thing that concerns me is that the tickets even for ST like myself are ONLINE only!? WTF, with the Heath Robinson system we have I’ve no bloody chance of getting my ST seats let alone any others. So I have a cunning plan. I’m taking my iPad to the club shop tomorrow if they genuinely won’t sell me my tickets over the counter they can fucking help me navigate my bloody iPad to do it there and then.

I don't understand why Port Vale fans are still getting pissed off with 'only' having the Bank - I'd be shocked if their average away following was even 400

That’s not the point, though. It’s the equivalent of a glam cup tie fr both clubs. To get all pissy about allocations is approaching tinpottery

Maybe they can use their historic pottery skills to make some nice porcelain toilets for Stratton Bank?

They did take over 1,300 to Exeter on Saturday, so would expect at least that

A trip around Wedgewood and Spode museums as an added bonus.

Statement on the concerns about ticketing windows, priority for regulars etc.

Ridiculous that it has to be said that contacting staff on their personal phones/social media isn't on.

Honestly, with the difficulty we've had with ticketing all season, a six day turnaround for these tickets is going to be a bit of a nightmare for the staff.

Are you suggesting a team might bring more fans for a play off games?

Being a bit obtuse there. I don't think anyone has said "they won't sell a single ticket more than for a normal league game" but selling ten times more than usual would be an impressive effort for a televised game.

As it happens I think there's a decent chance both teams sell out their allocations, but I think it'll be close. I can't see either side having the demand for hundreds or thousands of further tickets.

Clearly explained statement, then followed by replies from the “special” people on Twitter still crying!
