RhylRam Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 I have activated my reserved ( season) ticket seat for Wednesday although I can’t actually make it Will I count even though I won’t be scanning my ticket through turnstile? Will be there Saturday providing I manage to get petrol ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sage Posted September 27, 2021 Author Share Posted September 27, 2021 I have sent an email to the club, ticket office and Supporters Liaison Officer. Mentioned some of the difficulties people have been having getting tickets and offered as a Forum to purchase tickets for people less fortunate than ourselves to upcoming home games. See what response I get. Derby4Me, SaffyRam, Old Spalding Ram and 8 others 7 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

angieram Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 Tickets aren't going too well, even from people who have season tickets. Don't be @Boycie. ? Don't leave it until the last minute to claim your seat. Day, Boycie and Mucker1884 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mucker1884 Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 (edited) What's the home capacity, after away seats and segregation etc? Anyone have a rough idea? I'd assume c. 27k - 28k? Edited September 27, 2021 by Mucker1884 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sage Posted September 27, 2021 Author Share Posted September 27, 2021 Sounds like there will be around 1k more home fans than the Stoke game I think. Bearing in mind it's midweek and Reading, it's a start. We need to get that 1k up to 5k by Xmas. 3 points on Wednesday would help.

Woodypecker Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 So many things now are going to be hit by the fuel shortage. Probably can't get to Derby now this week. Tickets printed - but nil petrol in my part of the West Midlands. So many workers - and doctors, teachers, essential workers - not getting fuel. What a pathetically-governed country we live in.

What a pathetically-governed country we live in. Not entirely sure you can blame the government for all of this problem. Surely, in terms of supply and delivery, nothing has changed since this time last week when there weren’t any (immediate) problems. It’s all down to the media fuelling (no pun intended) panic buying. Where abouts in the WM are you? After a manic Friday, things seem a lot calmer over here. With two trips to Derby coming up (as well as going to Manchester last Saturday and off to Leicester later in the week), I probably need to top up but I’d be surprised if I have any problems Tuesday or Wednesday (could probably go today if I wanted but, I’ll wait a bit). rufus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodypecker Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 Undoubtedly, fuel shortages provoked by panic-buying and media coverage. No fuel here in north Brum and can't risk touring the city / local motorways in order to preserve what little fuel I have. Not all governmental causes, true - so many haulage firms' poor pay & conditions have been exposed by the Brexit labour shortfall (in many areas of employment) - and seasoned truckers just packing it in for less red-tape delays, hassle and stress in other work or local driving, with better pay. Gets my goat when ministers say 'there's lots of fuel available' - careful spin - we know that, but it's not at the effing pumps!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuel shortage completely down to poor reporting and panic by stupid people. there is no shortage of fuel and never was, the shortage now has been inflicted by idiots.

Last night no fuel at Donnington, Leicester Forest East or Watford Gap. I wouldn’t rely on the motorway. My missus got some at Morrisons earlier.

It’s an attempt at dampening the panic buying. If folk returned to their normal buying habits there wouldn’t be a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
