I realise I'm jumping the gun a touch on this one, but I'm curious how or when Gasheads will be able to purchase play off tickets, should we end up competing in them and the first leg being away from home only next Wednesday?!
Seems like a ridiculously quick turn round time, given any sales will presumably be made on the Monday morning. Any supporters living outside of Bristol may well find this a bit of a nightmare!?

Would make sense to start selling tickets on Sunday?

Would make sense to start selling tickets on Sunday? Seems unlikely we could make contact with our Play Off opponents on Saturday evening for the first time and then have tickets for sale by the Sunday? Even having them for the Monday morning might be touch and go if it's Macclesfield. |

Seems like a ridiculously quick turn round time, given any sales will presumably be made on the Monday morning. Any supporters living outside of Bristol may well find this a bit of a nightmare!? glad you started a thread on it because i've been thinking about it for weeks and it's a logistical nightmare for a club who could swiftly sell out almost any allocation given in this lge, let alone what we will get from 3 small grounds. Thank God eastleigh built that new stand if we get them. I doubt there will be any phone bookings allowed as how could they check your ST, and even then there won't be time to post them out; unless the other club can keep them on the door / collection point, or we can sort something out for our staff to do it [this has been done before; e.g. Leeds about 6 years ago]. Even to get agreements, tickets printed and in the building, and for clear instructions to have been disseminated, all by Monday morning, will be quite a task. the more I think about it, the more I'm sure i won't be able to get a tkt.  |

Are they honestly going to sell out the home end? yes. to gasheads. only a short trip to their shop/booking office, and no accent problems. If they ask you who your favourite player is, just say the name of any random criminal or an ex-Gas player you f**king hate.  |

Home tickets shouldnt even be an issue. If we are in the play offs, they can go directly on sale after final whistle Saturday and open up the club shop on Sunday. Where there is a will there is a way. Otherwise it will be ridiculous for any fan that actually has to work and cant get over in person.

Away tickets have to be printed by the way club and there is no way BRFC can speed that up.

They wont be selling straight after whistle or opening Sunday. The good news is that hopefully they will send them out in the post if ordered early in the week. BUT I bet there will still be issues over having to have ST physically seen/stamped, and ditto for Supp Club membership. Sad because surely the game won;t sell out before ST holders / SC members etc, get a chance to buy tkts but LBH they do have to give them priority just in case. And especially for seats. Until this is all made electronic these problems will continue. Call me demanding but I don't understand why all ST holders can't be on a database and their record 'ticked' when they buy a tkt. Ditto for Supp Club membership. |

an Idea, Season Ticket Holders get in to the home Play off leg free on showing voucher whatever. That's part of a problem solved

I can see FGR having their best ever "home" support if - and it's a huge IF - we play them in the P/os.
