It was Wednesday FIL.
I have two stand season tickets but as they aren’t issued till next month, I can’t prove much unless I find my email confirmation but the hassle is a pain.

Looks like they have left a block for those who bought non allocated tickets from shop. I bought allocated tickets last night tried to get where our season ticket seats will be but couldn’t because all blocked out. There will be plenty of room just a few teething problems, won’t be a problem when season starts as most will be season ticket holders.

Up the Trin

I purchased along with our group on the day of release where it was all unallocated and sit where you like. We have always planned to sit in the seats around where are ST’s are in mid block to the left.

These and almost all around are blocked out now. With no communication other than we can sit anywhere when we purchased.

And that is exactly what we will do if it comes to it. Why should we be punished for being amongst the first to purchase a ticket.

I have seen a few free blocks - basically the end blocks and two very small sections third way down each side. We don’t want to sit at the ends. And with a week to go I wonder if these will reduce even more.

I’ll be frank that if this is the case then it’s not just teething problems and will cause some arguements on the day.

I will call the club shop tomorrow and find out what’s going on. Perhaps they are just testing and you can regardless of what your ticket says sit where you want as originally planned.

I assumed the seats that’s been blocked booked in The middle of the stand are for them who purchased in shop. Everyone else can book all other available seats

There weren’t any bookable seats on release. We purchased online and it was just unreserved for whole stand. We already sorted what time we will be there and a rough idea of seating to the left centre.

Fast forward to now and I’ve just gone through ticket on website and you now select seats with a number of them booked out.

It’s actually poor is that. I can let things go for teething problems but this has nightmare and shooting themselves in the foot all over it.

Would have been easier to just carry on with it all unreserved first come first served or have seat selection from day 1.

Anyway I will call the club shop and sort it out tomorrow. Hopefully it can be sorted over the phone as I can’t get to the club shop.

At least it's only for a friendly. Lessons learnt for any cup games to come. North Standers are stuck with their come early for a wrist band rule for the full season.

It’s a good job really that it is a friendly.

I’m sure they will sort it out over the phone tomorrow if needed.

Anyway, won’t do any good now I’ve said my piece.

Really looking forward to this match. I’m pleased we are playing Superleague opposition in pre season.

I don’t expect there will be much tinkering other than the last 20 maybe. Should have a good idea how the last 3 months preparation have gone.

Bought 2 tickets from the shop today and had to choose my seats there and then so make sure you’re not sat in them Trojan

Went into club shop today, they changed my unallocated tickets for ones with seat numbers.

Hope I'm sat in them when you turn up.....

We can decide if your sitting on my lap or me on your lap



Always up for a rock paper scissors decider though.

I've chosen my seats, I would like to sit there but I'm happy if I'm in the general vicinity. I won't be happy if I go and sit in alternative seats and then get asked to move again. If that happens I'll probably just take my original seats. Bit of an own goal from the club but hopefully sorted for when it kicks off properly in March.

3 tickets bought a while ago , no seat no as Daz says it’s a free for all , so as the saying goes first up best dressed , cos when I’m plonked I ain’t moving

We'll just see about that then Ketty, 'cos there's 7 of us all now got allocated seats and if you're sat in any of them then I guarantee you WILL be moving



Seriously though, it sounds as though there could be some issues when people go to take their seats so surely all allocated seats should be marked as such, even if it means just putting a sticker or something on each one ??

Does sound a bit of a mess to be honest. Ours will need swapping too.
Could they not just offer this on the gate on the evening? Take your ticket to the ticket office and they will allocate you seats there before going in to the ground? Surely that's the easiest option?

Might get there early just to do this and annoy and confuse everyone!

At least Trinity won't be blamed for any ticketing issues with the away game at York.

Wigan just posted some pictures of Sam Eseh, hope he gets some game time.

He looks to have packed on the muscle since his move but I still think particularly at the start of the year he will see game time in a Trinity shirt.

My two tickets is now six. Four newbies in three different areas. I hoped this crap was behind us. Told today it is down to WMDC. we are all at opposite ends of the stand.

Course not Wollo....


...Unless we sell [itoo many[/i.....

Those buying early online will fill the South Stand leaving those who pay on the day having to sit down the sides.

Daz in shop told me that season ticket seats are void and not allocated to anyone for this one when I bought mine , and up to press I haven’t got the nod to pick my season tickets up yet Fil and can’t remember for the life in me the actually seat no I’ve got . Free for all springs to mind

I bought 2 tickets as soon as they went on sale, no seat numbers on. Do I have to call the shop to get allocated seat tickets now or just turn up and hope for the best?

Your choice, I swapped my unallocated ticket for an allocated one to avoid any issues if/when someone turned up with tickets for the seat I was in. If any are spare when the game starts I may move.

Jeez why the fuss , it’s a testimonial game not the challenge cup final , no number on tickets to me say sit where you like , and that’s what we’ll do ,mountains n molehill’s spring to mind
