    Good news!

    Just tried again and it’s now working. Comes up on the main tickets screen as a reserved ticket.

    Jamesc, can you confirm the source for your earlier assertion?

    in reply to: Forest Cup tickets #153436

    Has anyone managed to solve this yet?
    I still can’t get to my seats, and I refuse to pay for a premium phonecall, an admin fee, and have to hope on the tickets being posted with all the staff being off over the holidays, when online I buy them whenever and print at home.
    I’ve tried messaging the club, but not really getting anywhere.

    Funny you should post now GL, I was just about to!

    Just been on ticket website, absolutely no change…no progress at all.

    Nothing on the website about how to claim our seats. Why should ST have to ring up when anyone else can go online and print off ticket at home, as you say?[/quote]

    The answer to that question is because you have the privilege of securing your own seat, even though they are on general sale.!

    If you want your own seat that badly, get on the phone[ if you don’t have a mobile phone, I guess someone in your household will], or nip to the ground to claim your seat if you don’t want to pay the £2 booking fee.
    If you are not that bothered about sitting in your season card seat, do what all non season ticket holders are doing and book online, its a simple as that.
    Not really a thing to moan about, given the amount of time you have had to claim your seat and just a tenner at that. :huh:[/quote]

    Is that the official club position? There’s nothing on the website to confirm any instructions for ST holders :unsure:[/quote]

    Yes, it is.[/quote]

    Source?

    If it is the official position, I won’t be going on principle and would encourage other ST’ers to stay away as well. The attendance will be poor at best, so why make it difficult for us to claim our seats?

    Good riddance. Arrogant, conceited person.

    Made my Christmas already :P

    Thanks Sky Sports News.

    He is a good manager, very good in fact.[/quote]

    Can’t stand the bloke personally, but like you say he’s a decent enough manager.[/quote]

    Perhaps those of us questioning Yootha’s future need to bear in mind the old phrase of “be careful what you wish for” :ohmy: :S

    in reply to: Forest Cup tickets #153361
    28th December is the last day to get your season ticket seat. If you are checking on the seat finder, yours will not appear as free cos its reserved for you until the 28th.
    I always want to sit in my season ticket seat even if you can’t reserve them. I just go early to the game and get it. :cheer:

    I thought I’d read 28th. Nothing coming up at all when I log in to say it’s reserved :unsure:

    in reply to: Rotherham must win? #153297

    The wider issue for me is using technology to help the officials. How exactly it would work God knows, but it’s wrong that everyone watching on TV can see a decision is wrong, but it cannot be corrected.

    Game is too fast flowing. The goal technology works as its on a watch and is live but penalty decisions wouldn’t be. The ref would have to give it and then watch it back why everyone complains; but then how do you restart play if it wasnt a dive and was just a bad call?[/quote]

    Very difficult how to use technology without unduly slowing the game. Need to find a way though sooner rather than later.

    Whatever system eventually gets used, the principle should be that it is used to support the officials. A borderline decision shouldnt be changed, only one that is clearly wrong (that could be another worm can though :ohmy: )

    in reply to: Rotherham must win? #153293
    Like in most the games this season, we do enough to win them, the difference with Rotherham is we should win.

    I said this about Ipswich as well, but as has been mentioned quite a few times, certain things went against us, but rather than get on with it we moped around for a bit and allowed them to benefit from their good fortune.

    On the penalty decision though, how about this for a debate:

    As the Ipswich players will have known that this decision was absolutely without doubt a wrong decision.
    Would missing the penalty have been the honourable thing to do?

    Very interesting point JT!

    For me, no, they should have gone for goal. We would have gone for it had the roles been reversed! You have to accept the referee’s decision and get on with the game otherwise you have chaos. Like I said before, these things even out (hopefully) over a season.

    The wider issue for me is using technology to help the officials. How exactly it would work God knows, but it’s wrong that everyone watching on TV can see a decision is wrong, but it cannot be corrected.

    in reply to: Who else ……????? #153289
    LeyBulLand …… One of the many things I really enjoy about supporting WAFC is the fun, laughs and banter …… thanks for your supportive comments!! Sometimes these boards just get a bit hard ……… and serious!!

    The way 2 of the last 3 seasons have been we would be suicidal by now if we couldn’t have a laugh along the way :lol:

    in reply to: Who else ……????? #153285
    I think you’re off your bloody rocker pal!

    I’ll double that :lol:

    You been on the Christmas sherry already Rich?

    in reply to: Powell #153279
    What’s up with the waste of space this time? No mention of him in the injured list, surely must be with the kids on the bench or has Warren had enough of him already?

    He was the ManUre wonder kid from 3 years ago wasn’t he?

    That’s why I’m sceptical about all this talk of Yootha bringing in wonder kids in January :unsure:

    in reply to: Penalty Today #153244

    Thanks Lowey, confirmed what we all thought…

    The reaction of the players said it all really.

    That said, they’re professionals and have to pick themselves up and get on with it, hard as that is sometimes.

    It cost us a point yesterday, but got to take the rough with the smooth…no one was complaining when the ref didn’t give those 2 penalties at Huddersfield!

    in reply to: Relegation group.. #153230

    Much improved performance (with some exceptions…defence etc), but still the same result ultimately yet another home defeat.

    Whilst the performance was better, it’s a results business and a defeat to Ipswich is far worse in the bigger picture than defeat to Newcastle. Defeat on Boxing Day would be in another league of despair.

    in reply to: If we dont’t score against Ipswich…. #153162
    Shades of the 2014-15 season however this team is poorer than that in my opinion.
    A total lack of ambition will send this club into oblivion if some serious team investment is not made in the new year.
    The rot set in in 2009 when we went from an established premier league outfit in the top ten to a club fighting relegation each season.
    Yes we won a major trophy in that time but the club has most certainly been in decline since then regardless of that
    Last night was like watching schoolboys play their teachers and I realised then that regardless of manager ( ridiculous decision sacking caldwelll btw )we have had it unless changes in playing personnel are made in January and the war chest brought out !.

    Totally agree Vince. When you know who arrived with his tippy tappy stuff and one up front malarky the club has been in a near permanent state of crisis. People laughed at Bruce, but for me we had our strongest Prem side under him 2008-9….Heskey, Zaki (for a while :ohmy:), Palacios, Valencia etc…

    Then El Clueless arrived trying to play Champions League football with Championship players on a non-league pitch :silly:

    in reply to: Former players #153152

    We expected nowt and we got nowt.

    Just checked the stats, apparently we did manage 1 shot on target at least :blink:

    Obviously Grigg starting doesnt work….erm, so back to 5-5-0 on Saturday :evil:

    Crowd looked really thin tonight (apart from the North stand!), doubt it will be much different on Saturday.
