Of course you don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Sunday morning just recovered from a long day at Orient I will book 4 Tickets for Rochdale with future ticketing. I do have a sadistic streak!! I have all 4 season Tickets in front of me, 4 seats together happy days no trip to the ticket office. No - it will only let me book one at once, so I could be on row Z seat one and my daughter on row A seat 99!! (She is 32 but likes to look after me!!). Yet another home goal for the club. !! It really is quite depressing .. I wonder if it is still one ticket per person when they go on open sale Tuesday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've emailed the club as I wanted two together and they said if you book them one after one another and it's the same name or address they should pick up on this and allocate seats next to each other.

Just how basic is this new ticketing system? Sounds hardly fit for purpose, how in the name of Ritchie (God) did the club feel that this was an appropriate operational tool?

I used it to book a ticket the other week and it looks like it's been coded in someone's bedroom. Ultra basic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dad - who is 81 - comes to the odd away game with me, Rochdale is one of those. Obviously we want to be sat together, so yes I do want us to be sat in our allocated seats.

You haven't been allocated a seat though, you've just paid to get in. Doubt you have ever had any trouble finding two seats together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every all ticket event whether it be football or anything really, is allocated seating to prevent people from standing in an Isle or having to sit away from family members or else why bother putting seat numbers on the ticket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As would thinking most football fans take notice of such things as allocated seating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if we get there and the numbered seats on our tickets are taken we are supposed to just shrug our shoulders and sit wherever we can, no matter where they are?

Would you make your dad climb 100 steps to the back row for example just because that's where your ticket says you 'should' be sat? Barmy behaviour. Look if someone is that desperate to sit in 'their' seat then I'd move, still busy bastards though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
