It is a wilful and spiteful act. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tGWB Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 From Ruan Sparks the Bradford City CEO To help address some concerns... - #oafc requested 1k tickets. - Further tickets available. - Tickets sent Tuesday 3rd (yet to go on sale). - No indication of sales, so plan to house the allocation requested (standard). - There is no POTG at VP this season (COVID-19). #BCAFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of-course that is what the club will ultimately say....we asked for 1000 believing there would be pay on the day and when we found out there wasn't we spent a week trying to "resolve" it and now unfortunately all we can do is sell the 1000 to season ticket holders only... It's deliberate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a wilful and spiteful act. I know as much as you. However if they were working on the premise that there was some form of potd, a week to sell the original 1k allocation and then everyone else pays at bratfud isn't too ridiculous. They also had the (late) season tickets to sort out. It's not beyond the realms of possibility that they chose to focus on ST's... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Release statement saying we’re disappointed with the allocation, we want as many fans there as possible. Fucking hell- speechless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would assume that Bradford aren't communicating to other clubs that they have a non pay on the day policy in place this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just seen a Bradford fan on Ryan sparks twitter saying 3 clubs have been trying it on re tickets. Us, York and someone else.. So maybe there is some confusion about potd somewhere along the line. Even so surprised away tickets haven't been on sale sooner. Yes they had the new system to get out in but anyone with some sense would have got that installed as the last season finished.

Chaddyexile84 Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 Going on “general sale” tomorrow and the club have asked for another 200 according to the Bradford Chairman so they’re going to piss of ST holders too now - marvellous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy-latic Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 Probably the right move making it general sale now it’s so late. At least then when they sell out tomorrow, Bradford can send another 1000 across for behind the goal. Best chance of us getting a bigger allocation.

al_bro Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 I don't understand why they always ask for a certain number of tickets. Why not just ask for the full allocation of 1800. If those are sold their is an overspill on the side. Last time I went the stand behind the goal was closed. 1 hour ago, LaticMark said: A reminder from 7 weeks ago: According to the official website there were 1045 Latics fans at Bradford in August 2019. This is August 2021 after people haven't been able to go to a game for 18 months or so. I would expect around the 1800 mark for this game. How are people who are working expected to get tickets? They can't nip out at lunch time because they won't know how long they will have to queue up for. Absolutely ridiculous situation. Why is the ticket office closed today?

It’s petty but tickets cost money - clubs are sometimes reluctant to send full allocations in the first instance unless nailed on they’ll sell Source: I have a friend who worked in Bolton’s ticket office and told me as much when I asked a similar question Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agree surely that fact 3.7k turned out for our first homegame would indicate we would definitely fill our full allocation for our first away game against another side in the North West.
