Leaving a Ticket For Someone at the Amex

[Cheeky Monkey]

Has anyone ever done this? A mate of mine can't get down until bang on kick off time on Monday and I'm not hanging around outside with his paper ticket as I want to get in and soak it all up. I wondered if I could leave it with the ticket booth guys or elsewhere. Appreciate I should probably be asking the club on this one, which I will do, but was hoping for a speedier answer on here. Cheers.

If you have the ticket in hand now, why not stick it in the post to him today? Send it registered post, and he will have it by tomorrow.

Long story Brian! That's the back-up plan if need be.

No worries. Hope you manage to sort something out.

i'm sure there's a flower pot outside you can hide it under?

Ive always left envelopes with tickets, in the security gatehouse situated at the car park entrance(Bennetts field)
They have always been helpful.

DO NOT send it registered post. That means it goes in the normal post that is not guaranteed next day delivery (can take up to 3 days in the RM delivery "target") the only thing registered about is a signature at the end of its journey. Spend the extra money and send it special delivery guaranteed next day delivery.
I used to work for RM in the complaints department and this sort of scenario came up all the time. Avoid it

Also 3 day delivery target isn't guaranteed either. It's a delivery aim. And I think if you send it SP tomorrow it is only guaranteed for Monday with an aim for Saturday which might be cutting it fine

I've left a ticket for a mate in west stand reception before now, for the same reason you want to. They are happy to pass it on and even put it in an envelope for you.

Cheers for help all. Sorted now.

you could the ticket office to print out a paper copy of the ticket and put it under his name for him to pick up outside the ground? done that a few times, no charge, no problem. ticket office was very helpful with it

I sent my friend's ticket to him the other month by registered post, but, stupidly, gave him the name "Sir Charles of Chuckleworth" on the envelope. He wasn't in for the delivery and when he went to collect it, the person behind the Royal Mail counter would not accept his passport with a matching first name and proof of address. "We need something to prove you are Sir Charles of Chuckleworth." they insisted. Luckily they were willing to try and deliver again to the address the next day. Otherwise he wouldn't have gotten into that game as it was the week i was away and a replacement wouldn't have been easy to get a hold of.
