Have you got a Ticket for Southampton?

I'm one of 4 season ticket holders who have lost out.
Can't wait to hear the clubs explanations
 

Have you got a Ticket for Southampton?

Yes have got one, and have 4 season tickets (family). My wife joined the queue as it got to the Ealing road at 8.20 this morning, she also said that there were lots of people buying 6 and 8 plus tickets. I don't normally post here, but I think that the club has let a lot of real fans down on this one!
 

Have you got a Ticket for Southampton?

No tickets for me. I will be a former family season ticket holder next season. Pick & choose games from now on.
 

Have you got a Ticket for Southampton?

No ,but I dont deserve one compared with you regular away travellers and ST holders .Who'd buy a ST now ?
 

Have you got a Ticket for Southampton?

simply an absolute f*cking disgrace! half the reason for buying a season ticket is to be insured against missing out on any of the clubs big games like this one... all us season ticket holders (with or without a ticket) have been well and trully shat upon from a great height. shocking!
 

Have you got a Ticket for Southampton?

Nope. No tickets for me, my son, sister, & 2 daughters despite being season ticket holders, lifeline members, Bees United, Bias, going to 95% of ALL away games including midweek Hartlepool, sponsoring the walkers for £370 (combined) .............well all I can say is b***ockS to whoever organised this shambles, and goodbye from 5 season ticket holders. Thanks and good luck to you loyal fans (you know who you are), but to all of the "big game charlie's............you're no better than the Man Utd prawn brigade. Instead of getting 6/8 tickets for your non-Bee mates, why didn't you try to get them to GP for a game that wouldn't sell out?? :nono: :sad: :nono:
 

Have you got a Ticket for Southampton?

very angry, whats the point of an S.T.
I'm going on sat anyway ticket or no ticket !
 

Have you got a Ticket for Southampton?

Brentford couldn't organise a ****up in a brewery. Well I've just about had it with this club.........what is the point of having cup vouchers in the ST book??
 

Have you got a Ticket for Southampton?

Season ticket holder, was at Hartlepool Saturday went to club at 12.15 (lunchtime) to be told by Mark Chapman that I was out of luck. Suddenly all the passion I have had for BFC this season has been replaced by utter contempt for the people who make the decisions. I want resignations over this one. I am absolutly choked!! :sad: :cry:
 

Have you got a Ticket for Southampton?

I got a ticket but only because my mate went down there otherwise i would be up sh*t creak without a paddle, were both season ticket holders and went to hartlepool. I'm sorry for the true fans that have once again been shafted :( . Have any appeared on ebay yet?
 

Have you got a Ticket for Southampton?

Disappointed but not surprised. The sensible approach would have been to let ST/Lifeline/BU etc members buy in person or online today, then open up for freesale tomorrow. But for Pete's sake people dont blame the team or even the whole club for one or two individuals' error. Some of the vitriol on the threads about this astounds and somewhat disappoints me.

Lets rather be glad we are where we are. Lets face it - we aint going to win the cup, but this run might well keep us alive for another season when MA's magic wand could do even better for us. Rather, lets ensure that MA receives a warm and fuzzy and stays at GP, and doesnt go to West Ham (looking more likely by the day if you ask me).
 

Have you got a Ticket for Southampton?

Anyone checked ebay yet??
 

Have you got a Ticket for Southampton?

We may have a manager who is the best thing since sliced bread but the way these tickets have been sold makes this club appear to be run like a Sunday morning team.

I am not a season ticket holder so I take my chances on these games - & have not got a ticket. I am astounded that the club have not taken the full allocation available. The biggest mistake the club have made is not rewarding loyalty. What about season ticket holders? What about everyone who went to Hartlepool.

Going to let my friend pass my ticket onto another mate.

I can't go down there without him he'll be so upset.

He's been mascot this season (with pride) for the club he loves like me.

But what's the point. :sad:
 

Have you got a Ticket for Southampton?

I'm a season ticket holder, I went to Hartlepool, Hinckley, the Bristol replay when a lot of 'fans' didn't bother - I walked to Wycombe last year and this is how the club repay you. I won't be renewing my season ticket... what's the point?
 

Have you got a Ticket for Southampton?

Am amazed at the treatment of people who support this club fully. I am not one of them any more but my trips up from Dorset to follow the Bees when I can may become a thing of the past. Even the slightest hope of a ticket would have been good. Southampton are only selling tickets to members but they will know by Thursday if seats will be available.
 

Have you got a Ticket for Southampton?

I am a season tick holder and have missed 1 game away all season I have a flight booked to hartlepool next week my intention was to go to all the midweek away games in March.

I have a booked train for me and my girl who also went to Hartlepool on saturday train fares over 150 quid, I took 3 hour lunch break and could not get my tickets.
ANGRY Is a understatement.
 

Have you got a Ticket for Southampton?

Are we not allowed 25% of the tickets? If so, why did we only take 3,000? Disgraceful. :sad:
 

Have you got a Ticket for Southampton?

i went to hartlepool from torquay and only got back last night, now after over 600 miles of travelling im left ticketless, just because whoever lives close to the ground fan or not has snatched ticketsfor them and all their chavy friends. for tickets must be taken especially with southampton fans not going

its a total and utter fiasco..............some of the decision makers at BFC should hang their heads in shame
:nono: :nono:



complete merchant bankers is the word that springs to mind :rolleyes:


if i hear of any going spare, i'll let you know :)
 

Have you got a Ticket for Southampton?

I'm not a season ticket holder because I now live 135 miles away from Brentford and I'm not that heroic. I try to make up for this by supporting lifeline and Bees Utd on standing orders as well as getting to 20-30 games a season home and away. Despite not having an ST I think I and other Bees Utd/Lifeline supporters should have been entitled to buy tickets , along with ST holders, before they went on general sale.

Former Bees Utd/lifeline member now. I feel even more gutted for those of you who have STs.
 

Have you got a Ticket for Southampton?

I'm not a season ticket holder (I'm only 18 and saving for uni) but I have been supporting Brentford and going to games for four seasons now and am more of a fan than the chavs' gangs that have been hoarding all the tickets. And my Dad has been supporting the club since he was like my age, neither of us get to go to Southampton.
 

Have you got a Ticket for Southampton?

Like a pratt i bought 2 coach tickets from Heathrow to Southampton and it looks as if its all been in vain! Why didnt i realise it was going to be a balls up with the ticket sales G.P. Can this club get anything right? Why go on general sale straight away? Shouldnt loyal season ticket holders/members etc have first refusal with big game tickets? As usual well done all the backroom team at Brentford fc for really making my day!
 

Have you got a Ticket for Southampton?

sh*te! I never knew the tickets would be sold out that quick! Absolute ****ing disgrace! I bet a lot of those who managed to get tickets for Southampton ain't even proper supporters. They should have guaranteed tickets for season ticket holders. This is such a disgrace! Come on MA sort it out....
 

Have you got a Ticket for Southampton?

Absolute joke. I got there at 11;30 and started to queue. I had to take my van back to work at 12, and when I came back the gates were locked with about 200 people inside queueing and about 50 locked out. I went to Hartlepool on sat, and they should have said that tickets go on sale to people with stubbs from the Hartlepool game, season ticket holders and members. 2 tickets per person. The club is run like a joke behind the scenes. If I don't get a ticket, I'm still going down, so will about 1000 other angry bees.
 

Have you got a Ticket for Southampton?

In the Q for one of the last few tickets available...after about 2-2 1/2 hours.
 

Have you got a Ticket for Southampton?

It's not f***ing rocket science, is it?

1. You plan in advance, in anticipation of a win at Hartlepool.

2. You sell tickets like this: Monday, season ticket holders only. Tuesday, BU members, people with x number of ticket stubs, Lifeline etc. Wednesday: general sale of any that are left.

A complete fiasco. In the queue today (and yes, I was one of the lucky ones in the great Brentford FC lottery - locked *inside* the forecourt when the gates were locked on the hapless and genuine Bees fans outside in Braemar Road) I heard tales of early-comers being sold ten or twelve tickets each. I really hope these are unfounded.

Have you got a Ticket for Southampton?

Can only re-iterate what's already been said. I'm a Lifeline member and have been since day 1, a BU shareholder and sometime season ticket holder - and where does all that get me ? Why in the name of blazes weren't those who have committed long-term to the club given the chance to get their tickets first ? - not to mention those who went all the way to Hartlepool on Saturday (and I wasn't one) who should without any question have been given first pick. This could surely have been done on Sunday - it's not as if the club haven't known about the situation for long enough.

I received a very nice e-mail from the club this morning telling me to buy my Southampton tickets on-line as this was the "preferred" method. By the time I tried, about 9:30, on-line sales had been suspended. Then spent an infuriating hour or so listening to the engaged tone on the phone line. Finally decided to get in the car and drive the hour-and-a-half to the ground. By the time I arrived the gates were locked and the sold-out sign was up.

Mark Chapman was doing his best to appease a collection of aggrieved supporters outside the gates. When asked whether any more tickets would be made available he did say that the club had approached Soton for an extra allocation but Soton had refused. The Police and Safety people were pressurising them to release extra tickets but there was no guarantee they would.

The most frustrating thing for me is that even if more tickets do go on sale, I've now got to go through the whole charade again, with probably the same despressing result. Surely someone at the ground could have taken names and numbers from the people who had turned up to contact them if tickets did come up ? Mark was asked if this could be done but apparently it's impossible !

The whole shambles has really taken the shine off what should be a highlight of the season. Mark stated that the decision to put the tickets straight onto general sales was made by the "executive board"... so we know where to vent our frustration don't we.
 

Have you got a Ticket for Southampton?

I will pay someone if they have a spare two....PM me!! :sad:
 

Have you got a Ticket for Southampton?

I still do not understand why no-one at BFC twigged this was happening and suspended sales for the day and then offer them to ST holders 2morrow and if any left after that they can go on general on Wednesday. They made a mistake not sanctioning the sles in the first place but to let that mistake turn into this catastrophy (spelling :nono: ) is unforgivable as it could of been stopped!!! I am still feeling sick inside that they have done this to me and so many of my compatriots ....what have we done to deserve this ? :mad1:
 

Have you got a Ticket for Southampton?

We have approx 2500 season tickets, with over 3000 tickets available every season ticket should have been certain of ticket.
With an average home crowd of about 5000, every one of them plus others were bound to want to go to this game.Why turn down the extra tickets.
Jon Mac and co should resign.
 

Have you got a Ticket for Southampton?

Sorry to say it but its supply & demand. :(

Trouble is the powers that be decided to go for the lesser number of tickets if we got through (as did Hartlepool in fairness to the club, but then they are much further way!).

They also wanted us to use the Internet to place our orders -I'm just lucky my mate didn't trust this and went to the ground! But why lead the punters one way & close the door on them?

Bad decisions which, in my opinion, have led to all the aggro and bad feeling today. When things were going so well too (on the field at least).

I have to say that even if we got the higher number of tickets we wouldn't have had enough!!! I reckon we could have shifted between 7,500-9,000 easily & probably more.
 

Have you got a Ticket for Southampton?

I have a Standing Order with Bees United. I have travelled to every cup game this season (including Hartlepool). I travelled to the 'Pool game with my grandad who has been going to Brentford since the thirties and has been a season ticket holder for decades. He, nor myself or my father have a ticket. And the most depressing thing is there are probably hundreds who also don't have tickets who deserve them more than us......
