If I get through, I could probably transfer someone else in to speak to the ticket office after I'm done on our fancy phone system here.

Hi guys,

I have just logged onto my account on the internet and its bringing up that you can buy Albion tickets online. I have chosen J8 in the Stevie bull upper and its given me 4 tktS J8 row b. So any of you who have a supporter number might be quicker buying online.

If this is right its a $$$$ing disgrace

Tickets are only available for purchase BY TELEPHONE to wolves fans with existing supporter numbers.

From confirming email :

If you have ordered match tickets before the Wednesday of a game, then your tickets will be posted to you. If you have ordered tickets between Wednesday and the morning of the game, your tickets will be left at Ticket Collection for you to pick up, which is located outside the main Ticket Office in the Stan Cullis stand.

So....$$$$ knows. Play it by ear, they might come by Saturday as it's a Sunday match

No, i only used my season tkt number and it let me purchase 4, all tkts will be registered to me and I am responsible for the people sitting in them.

It just gets better and better doesn't it. So ST holders can go online buy 4 tickets and flog em on ebay or do whatever the $$$$ they want to with them.

I only needed 1 supporter number for the 2 tickets. Plenty of good seats available.

jesus.....I used individual numbers so am ok, but that's gonna cause some fuss. Can't get any more now.

If anybody else is buying that way, try and get one for Jamboon, he's been on the $$$$ing phone all morning !

Firstly you can't sell football tickets on ebay, and secondly I have purchased 30 tickets this season for my hubby/sister/brother and inlaws. They have been to more than half the home fixtures as they also pay on the turnstiles. My tickets are for them and I certainly wouldn't risk selling them to strangers as I am ultimately responsible for them, and would noway risk our season tickets being taken from us.
But yes in theory I suppose you could sell that to whom you like at whatever price you like.

good luck getting yours

they usually post them to the address that is registered with them, but i would email or contact them as they may also keep them back for box office collection on the day, If that is the case get there early as the queues are usually massive!

Just managed to get through after a 45 min wait! Apparently, the reason the wait is so long is because loads of people camped outside the ticket office overnight, obviously not having read that you can only purchase tickets by telephone, so loads of the staff that were supposed to be manning the phones are having to work on the counters instead...

You couldn't make it up!

Waggy's Boots
24-01-2007, 12:09
clearly some people are getting through and buying tickets - I've been trying since 9.00am - constantly for 2hrs and intermittently for the last hour -phew it can be hard work being a wolves fan in more ways than one!

Its just said on Beacon that they have stopped people queuing as there r no tkts on sale via the box office, but because some have been there since 6 this morning the 150 people in the q will get tkts as a goodwill gesture!

Nightmare! I waited for about 25 mins in the Q once I got through...the website is saying that they'll sell 5000 today and have 1000 left.

Although if you add up the numbers - 14,000 STs 5000 wba that leaves 9000 to sell....where did the 3000 go to???? perhaps one for another thread....

Right, now im $$$$ing angry. I had planned to go to the ticket office today as early as possible to get in a queue to buy tickets. Then yesterday it was announced that tickets would only be sold via telesales. I stuck to the rules set by the club and have been phoning from work all morning to no success. My dad who has not had work today was also planning to go to the ticket office, has also been phoning all morning as telephone sales are the only way to buy tickets.

Problem is the statement released by the club was a load of $$$$$$$$ to try and stop people queing up outside. Not only are they selling tickets on the phone they are also selling them at the ticket office and online.

After ringing up all moring my dad was put in a queue held on for the time required (about an hour) and after managing to speak to someone got cut off. So not only has he wasted all this time on the phone when he could of gone to ticket office. He also has a ridiculous phone bill to pay for and no tickets to show for it.

It has not been a great morning.

Just posted this on a different thread, but I thought I'd add it here.

Just selected option 3 as normal, then chose option 5 ('all other ticket enquiries')then option 2 (Junior Wolves?!!). Got through to someone in this department, asked to be put through to the ticket office & was put straight through & got 2 tickets straight away!! Took about two minutes in total.

Hope this helps the poor souls who've been sat in a queue all day...:)

I've been trying all day, finally saw Darkos message and now the ticket office are closed.
