In its wisdom has a new policy in place to stop fans reserving tickets.
My bank account has a debit card which is not recognised by the machines used in the ticket office and as a result I cannot buy tickets over the phone. The club has been kind enough to acknowledge that the issue is with their machines and have always reserved the tickets for me and I've turned up at the booking office on match days and bought the reserve tickets without fail, I have been doing this for years and not months.
I ring up today and attempt to do exactly the same thing to be told by the sales assistant that the club has a new policy where tickets can no longer be reserved. I speak to the manager of the ticket office who tells me the same.
I state that I'm a fan who is unable to get to the ticket office prior to kick off day and I get a stonewall response 'That tickets cannot be reserved'. Well you know what SUFC '**** you and the horse you rode in on' I'm an avid fan that wants to support my local club. In a time when attendences are at their lowest they've been in years they decide to stop reservations? Thats insane.
I'm so angry right now, I will not be spending any more of my money at them club for the foreseeable future. The decision making at the club is beyond a joke. I appreciate that some may reserve and not turn up, however, looking at my sales history proves I have never done this.
