Maybe be it should say We know the tickets were over priced We know that tickets prices will remain exhorbitant in the months ahead We know that TicketMaster are scamming on ticket fees despite all that top dollar prices! we still managed to get it fughing wrong The Club should stand up and say it not try some half arsed apology trying not to offend commercial parties. WE ARE THE CUSTOMER! TOP DOLLAR TOP SERVICE! | |

Is that supposed to be an apology on behalf of the club to those who missed the first 10 mins of the game??? More like an elevation of blame that the new ticket management system installers failed miserably in checking that the system was fail proof, there wasn't enough turn styles open in the first instance and this new system (which cost loads of money to install) was not ready to deal with influx of fans that it was designed to deal with... But it's okay, they're working on it... And through this letter, they're communicating with us... Pathetic | |

If you understood that explanation of what went wrong ....would it be possible for you to explain it to me please. As the only thing that I could grasp was....... The system worked well until the fans turned up, and that you can expect further delays for the next couple of games, so stop whinging and be patient [Post edited 14 Aug 2014 15:24]

The combined effect of several problems: 1. technical issues relating to the printing of tickets and the turnstiles not reading the printed tickets properly 2. staff weren't fully up to speed with the new equipment 3. not enough turnstiles open Club are aware of these issues and they have been resolved before Saturday. | |

I'm not sure the statement says they will be resolved by Saturday??# The bit that gave it away was the last paragraph “In doing so all parties would ask supporters to be patient in order that the teething problems that have been experienced can be ironed out over the course of the next few fixtures, and that supporters react positively to any communication coming from the Club with respect to ticketing and access management arrangements over the next few weeks.” | | | |

Ah yeah I misread the bit about Saturday and didn't properly read the last bit. I wasn't there for the match and so didn't get delayed myself - therefore I'm not upset as some people obviously and rightly are. The statement itself though, don't see anything wrong with it. | |

Oh God exactly.... How many times did that statement go around the houses and back again. That's got leigh dineen written all over that. It was like one of his twitter rants. | |

Just say sorry on 15:50 - Aug 14 with 4849 views | Jackfath | I've often read people on here complaining that the website doesn't keep fans updated with information, or complaining about a lack of updates on there. Now that's sorted people are moaning about it being "long winded". Seems they cant do anything right in some fans eyes. | |

Fath your irony is funny and brilliant but on this one the club got it wrong and have spouted bollox(officially) oddly enough some might say just before a Fans Forum! If the Board grant themselves dividend then i'm afraid to say criticism is going to be very harsh and duly justified when it is deserved! £100m business and they got it wrong | |

I think you're reading a bit too much into that, they are just asking for patience while they sort it out. | | | |

Yes, more a plea than a threat. I've written something like that in the past when we ferked up. Decoded it means: The technology should work Our user testing was sh1te Our implementation planning was sh1te We have no real confidence we can fix it quickly You are now our user testers Come early and expect delays. An explicit apology would have been nice for those affected. | |
