[Archived] Season Tickets 09/10

[BobbyShafto_BRFC]

Does anyone remember the old song sung on the BBE....."Oh Accrington (oh Accrington) is wonderful!" & the counter song "Oh Accrington is full of ####" ???

......maybe a newer vocal rivalry should be started at Ewood next season....."The Darwen End is wonderful....the Darwen End is wonderful...." & maybe a counter song from the BBE??

if owt, it`ll get the atmosphere going!!

Facebook already has it`s Darwen End Singers group.

Yeah i remember the song!

Can you remember a group singing at a similar time "Helmshore Blues we are here" Which was countered "Helmshore Blues we are queer" Hilarious...

Received a phone call from the club yesterday with an explaination for the problems we experienced with online renewal. All of which seemed perfectly reasonable and was able to renew there and then over the phone. Still no ST pack though

Renewed weeks ago online for what its worth but still no season ticket pack in the post....I do hope they haven't ballsed this up!

renewed online 5 mins ago, sweeeeeeet

That's very funny... ...a Portuguese guy got arrested over here for sexually abusing a cow with a stick...

[ABBEY]

he didnt use a stick unless you count a hard on as an offensive weapon

Got my season ticket yesterday along with a mate who has never had one before. 2 tickets in the Darwen end.

A chap at the next window asked the lady if "the tickets were selling well" she replied Yes they are.

Why would they bother sending you a pack if you renewed weeks ago?!

I renewed inside the first week they came on sale, i havent recieved or expected a pack since.

Because the database data was farmed out weeks ago?

[MarkBRFC]

Nah, i reckon they would have stopped packs going out to people who renewed in the first week or so as there would be no point sending them one.

My mum recieved hers last week, if they were sending me one why wouldnt it have come at the same time as hers?

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

That might well be the case Mark but I have renewed online in the past AND received a season ticket pack too so who knows?

[brfcshabba]

I got a confirmation letter through the post when I renewed online but no season ticket pack.

The only time the data would have been cleansed is for the second run with the full packs going out.

As for your question about you and your mum's packs - have you seen Paul's posts on the issue?

I'll be honest i only scanned through the last page so no i havent.

Just seems odd to me, our packs have always came together in the past and i assumed that the reason i havent recieved one this year was because i had renewed inside the first week of them being on sale.

That would seem the sensible reason - but this is Rovers! There have been loads of single pack arrivals in multi ST houses.

I would be very interested to see how many ST holders who havnt renewed havnt had a pack - what with claim your seat day fast approaching!

[bobsterbrfc]

Just made 3 renewals this morning. Seemed to be a steady stream of custom, including a group of young lads who were not renewing.

Anyone have any info' on how sales are going? I forgot to ask.

I'm assuming exactly the same.

[bubblerrovers]

I'm sure after Davies and Rothen sign people will be inspired

[Paul]

Ok some info for you.

Packs have gone out to all existing season ticket holders. (Those that need to hit the 1st deadline in other words).

Hughesy, got my ST pack yesterday. Postmarked June 22nd. Any comment on the accuracy of the information you have been providing?

Renewed by phone on the 18th so it's of no value now anyway.

Be fair Paul, Hughesy has made 112 posts on the topic, he cant be right all the time

Surprised that the Darwen End tickets don't seem to be selling well. Logged onto OneRovers and it looks like maybe 100-200 so far.

224 gone so far (according to the Onerovers). There are a number of reasons why they are not flying off the shelves just yet :-

1) The target audience (those who took up the £20 offer for the last three games) won't have received their season ticket packs yet.

2) Uncertainty about which four games they will be moved for and exactly how much it will cost them for the privilege.

3) With unreserved seating there is zero incentive for buying early.

or some of the people who bought the £20 for 3 games last season has rang up the ticket office and bought a season ticket elsewhere in the ground....like me
