When I said I was miffed because no extra treatment for season ticket holders.

I was told not to panic and all season ticket holders would get what they wanted,enough tickets to go round etc.
Having queued for 6 hours + I must say I am well pissed off along with quite a few who were season ticket holders with me.What a farce.Having been asked to cough up early to help the club and then get treated like this :censored: :censored: :censored:
Sorry to say but the club I believe have F**ked up big time with the ticket allocation.I know some season ticket holders and shirt sponsors who are away and might not get tickets,that can't be right.

Everything you say is justified but the club pay very little attention to their most loyal customers - I told them that in a mail and guess what - they didn't even fecking respond !

What does that tell you about their attitude ?

I'll tell you what it says it says this:

When Falmer is agreed and built the boot will be firmly on the other foot - us the season ticket holder.

Putting bums on seats will need some very creative marketing and also pricing something way beyond the wit of the current marketing people.

Roll on Falmer

oapdodge, as of last week, fans who expected to be away (out of Brighton) were able to apply for tickets in writing.

That may still be the case (if the club has kept some in reserve).

Wozza - I can understand your comments now having glanced down the page it has taken over the site today.I wasn't aware of the postal if outside Brighton bit,thought that only applied to the non BN post codes.I also hope the club have sorted out a few higher priced better tickets for postal applications and that they are sent out before we run out.Having stood around for 6 hours
to get my ticket is a nightmare.Now I've had a couple of beers and realise I've got my ticket and looking forward to next Sunday I can calm down and forget it.Still thimk we might not have heard the last of it though.

why do season ticket holders seem to think they have a divine right to get a ticket before anybody else, I go to every away game which involves long journey's day's of work late nights & more outlay over a season than a season ticket holder that leaves before the end to get a poxy bus home, Which by the way is no more than 15 min's away. Get over it. :angry: :angry: Rant over, Carry On.

When people like Biscuit who stood for hours in the cold handing out Falmer leaflets is so pissed off the club have to listen.

I support the management 99% of the time but this time they got it wrong , big style, pure and simple.

I am f***ing furious that season tickets holder who have been at Withdean for 5 years pumping £ 1500 - £ 2000 into the club were given NO PRIORITY to the gloryseekers whose first game for 5 years will be at Cardiff.

Those gloryseekers will not be seen again for another 5 years.

I hope you're right about the change of attitude Beach Hut.

I don't want to over react but what the helll...

Strikes me that sometime's the club's attitude to loyal customers wouldn't have been out of place during the Belloti era.

I've had my say and am now going to stare lovingly at my ticket for a couple of hours...come here my precious :lolol:

i dont think its a personal thing against you if you go to away games etc. what annoys me are the people that have only been to 1 game in a season, and then get better tickets than people that pay £400+ for a season ticket, watching not exactly great football in the pouring rain.

To be honest, i think it isn't fair the way that the club did it, and think that it should have been the season ticket holders first and then the people that have been to the most away games in the season (they must have this on the database) and then go to the public.

my5 year comment was towards G Glover not B.A.G

but really, does it matter who it was directed to? you're still making a sweeping generilisation of all the season ticket holders at withdean, and i'm merely disagreeing to your comment
