Quote “who is to blame – The Club????” Of course the club is to blame :angry: The proviso for getting a ticket was that you had to show your travel arrangements.
When has Wigan Athletic EVER shown anything but contempt for the average fan?Exactly BB. The club are at the centre of this debacle mainly for the reason you state.
If we had done it the other way round, waited until tickets were in hand, we probably couldn’t book a flight by then…can’t win.
I knew and accepted there was a risk over tickets when I booked, hence why I paid a deposit only.
What has annoyed me today is the comment couple of weeks ago that tickets wouldn’t be a problem. Most of us who’d booked relaxed when we heard that.
What has really f!!ked me off today is the club announcing this VIP thing on the same announcement that normal tickets had sold out. As others have said, its actually not a bad package for the price and I might well have booked it had it been announced in September. Probably have had to take the wife as well. (So maybe it’s a blessing in disguise :silly: )
By the way, when they put me on the waiting list, the TO said they’re not taking travel details for this :blink:
Never mind, relaxing now with a nice glass(es) of wine watching England….what else could go wrong today :ohmy:
Which comes first the chicken or the egg? Which do fans need to buy first, a match ticket or a flight and hotel?The club has clearly put fans in an impossible situation. Fans thought this was a dream come true, but it’s turning into a nightmare.
I want to know who (presumably from the club) told us we would get all the tickets we needed. :angry:
Hindsight’s a wonderful thing, but the club must have known ages ago tickets were highly limited and should have restricted tickets to those on “official” trips. That way the numbers could have been controlled and tickets guaranteed to those people.
Anyone not on an official trip tickets not guaranteed.
Like I say, easy to say now….
Yes its a fiasco.
Couldn’t get a ticket this morning at ticket office.
Flight booked (deposit only paid) with Vital in September, but no ticket :blink:
We were told recently we would get all the tickets we needed, anyone who booked a flight after hearing this is entitled to feel they’ve been conned. By whom I’m not sure….
Cheers for that LMB…must admit I hadn’t noticed the club announcement on tickets.
I’ll print off the email from Vital just in case ;)
I’ve got a ticket for tomorrow, but cant go now due to work….gutted… :evil:
It’s complicated as always with England…but I reckon if (IF) we win tomorrow we will be in the play offs for certain minimum as Montenegro cant overtake us then and Ukraine/Poland one of them cant.
If we win and Ukraine don’t win we’re 99.9% certain of qualifying outright tomorrow due to goal diff.
I have not considered the permutations if we don’t win…
“Failure? The though never entered my mind….” aka Mrs Thatcher or was it Alf Ramsey in 1973 :ohmy:
Have a great time BB…don’t forget your furry hat ;)
Seriously though, how many have booked on the club trip at £1599? It’s a great opportunity to meet and greet etc, but my flexible friend wasn’t too friendly when I asked him :ohmy:
Congratulations! You know as much about Rugby League as you do about football.And I don’t mean you, Mutty.

Whoever said it was a thugs game played by gentlemen? :woohoo:
Great to see Holt back. He’s a threat to any defence in this league.
If he can stay fit we’ll be right up there come May ;)
Home results looking good…if we can pick up the away form…. :cheer:
Looking more than likely now !
Maybe not ! I thought they kicked off at 6pm ? It’s 7.30pm now and they still have half an hr to play ? Oh well, I’m off to go and get ready for the pub ![/quote]
It was all the injuries after they punched each other.
Clear evidence on camera. If footballers did that there would be hell to pay.
Footballers get sent off for the slightest ankle tap (Beckham 1998 :oops: ) yet that Westwood punches Blake Green :ohmy:
3 major trophies in the cabinet…unique. Hope the trophy is paraded tomorrow, I’ll applaud.
Sky said he was in the Directors’ box.
I presumed DW had invited him out of courtesy…he deserves it.
If DW hadn’t invited him, the seat next to me was free :lol:
Say what you like about DW or RM, we’ve said a few things, but they conduct themselves with dignity. A dignity not shown at Liverpool to the England manager :oops:
Really enjoyed it tonight, real buzz around the ground.
Fair play to the Maribor fans they enjoyed themselves all 100 of them (if not the result
)hope they enjoyed their visit as we will over there….Impressed with Powell. An inch away from a hat-trick…
With Kazan winning today as well we’ve a real chance of going through. Anything’s a bonus next 2 games with Kazan then it’s all to play for.
The club is being showcased in Europe; pick the best team we can to qualify. If we get to the Round of 32…well you never know what might happen ;)
Cheers for that LMB.
Looks like we’re on then…roll on 12/12/13 :woohoo:
I paid the deposit just in case. What you’ve said about needing the minimum numbers explains why it hadn’t gone through on my last statement.
Sounds a bit of a noddy airport….don’t count on there being a duty free shop :ohmy:
Just seen the weather forecast for tomorrow night.
We can’t get wet on the inside thanks to UEFA but we will get wet on the outside :ohmy:
Won’t dampen my spirits ( ;) ) though can’t wait for our Euro home debut.
Yep…I revisted the fixtures after I posted…. :blush:
Sorry to disappoint, but a relative of mine used to work in Yeovil so I know where it is thanks (not been though) :lol:
What an opportunity to actually travel with the players and have a drinks reception.
Had it been £800 or thereabouts I might have been digging out the credit card, but £1599…. :ohmy: :ohmy:
I’m guessing the smallest plane the club could get with the range to get to the depths of Russia was about 140 seats so they thought they might as well sell on the rest. No idea why it’s returning via Bristol…to drop off DW’s auntie maybe :lol:
)hope they enjoyed their visit as we will over there….
