Saints Issue Ticket Refund Information Statement

The club have issued a statement regarding supporters who have paid for matches that are not likely to be playe, both season ticket holders and individual tickets..

The general message though seems to be that until the final details of the ending of the 2019/20 season are decided then the club cannot do too much, it is also unclear whether those who have bought tickets for the away matches fall into these categories.

Southampton Football Club would like to provide the following information to its valued ticket holders and hospitality guests.

The club appreciates the uncertainty its supporters are facing at these times, and is extremely grateful for the patience, understanding and commitment that fans have shown while the 2019/20 campaign has been put on hold.

We would now like to advise our supporters of the following steps...

Individual match ticket purchasers:

- All fans who have purchased tickets via the club will have their booking refunded directly. You do not need to contact us for this.

- For all card transactions, refunds will be made to the card used to purchase. Should the club encounter any issues in this process, please be assured we will contact the supporter directly, either via phone or email.

- Any fans who purchased with cash will be contacted by the club in the same way as above to discuss their options.

- Due to the volume of transactions that must be processed, please allow up to 28 days for all payments to be refunded. We would appreciate if supporters could refrain from contacting us regarding refunds until after this point, in order to allow staff to keep the process as efficient as possible for all fans.

Hospitality match ticket purchasers:

- All hospitality match purchasers for the remaining games in the 2019/20 season will be contacted personally by one of our account managers to process their refunds.

Season Ticket holders (General admission and Hospitality):

- Information for Season Ticket holders in relation to the final four matches of the 2019/20 season will be shared with our fans in detail in the week commencing June 15th. There will be a number of options available, including carrying over the credit against a 2020/21 Season Ticket, a donation to the work of Saints Foundation, or a direct refund. We look forward to sharing full details of our Season Ticket plans as we move forward together.

For any urgent enquiries, please contact our Ticket Office via email at tickets@saintsfc.co.uk.

What to read next:

Swansea Awaydaze
Our visit to Swansea City is on Sunday with a 3pm kick-off, and once again we’re being televised live on Sky Sports, which will be handy for those of us who can’t get to South Wales on a Sunday.

Farke complains bitterly about Firpo suspension
We had a surprise yesterday morning, as we found out that that Junior Firpo had been given a three match suspension as a result of an incident in the match at Millwall. Our manager has complained about the short notice when he was preparing his team to face QPR, and about the FA’s process itself.

Leeds labour to victory over stubborn QPR
We made hard work of winning this game, but we finally put the match beyond Queens Park Rangers with a second goal deep into injury time, sending the visitors to the bottom of the table.

Farke happy with the performance despite defeat
Daniel Farke has claimed that his team were excellent last night, but many others disagree, after we failed to get past an organised defence yet again, and Millwall were able to hang on to all three points.

Millwall Awaydaze
On Wednesday night we can once again look forward to another fun-packed visit to Millwall on Sunday with kick off at 7.45. You’ll find the New Den in a really pleasant part of South-East London, but if you’re not heading this way, there is always the option of watching the game live on Sky Sports plus.

Leeds coast to comprehensive win over Plymouth
The goalscoring was confined to an eight minute period towards the end of the first half, but Leeds were so dominant throughout the entire 90 minutes that Plymouth Argyle didn’t manage a single shot on goal.

Farke feels Leeds should have come back from Ashton Gate with a win
Leeds had more of the possession and created the better chances against Bristol City, so it feels a little frustrating that we didn’t take all three points.

Bristol City Awaydaze
It will be an early start if you’re making a day trip to Bristol City on Saturday, as kick-off is at 12.30pm, thanks to our very good friends at Sky Sports. You’ll find Ashton Gate about 2 miles to the south-west of the city centre.

Leeds bring in Guilavogui as experienced backup
The club have made a move to bolster the squad by signing 34-year-old Josuha Guilavogui, who can operate in a number of defensive positions. Subject to obtaining a work permit, he will now be with us until the end of the current season.

Leeds hold on to beat spirited Watford
At the start it looked like we were cruising to an easy victory, but Watford came back at us, and at the end we were relieved to hear the final whistle
