I bought my ticket today...it took about a minute (but that was because they already had my details on the computer.I'm hopnig they won;t be asking for eveyones details on the day)

Just got mine, and having read this thread asked if they would be asking for peoples details on Sunday - like Jemmo they had mine and it took about a minute. The lady serving me asked somebody else, and they said they would be asking for details on Sunday. She said that the Dons had asked about putting a supporters database together from ticket sales (as they had done for the Rovers).

If correct this would be chaotic.

If it took you and Jemmo 1 minute each to purchase a ticket---

So

700 tickets at a minimum of 1min per/ticket=11 Hours 40mins

Even if there were six ticket outlets--it would take 1Hr 56 mins each

and thats assuming the stadium already has the details of all of those 700 fans

Wouldn't want to be at the back of that queue

I'm sure/hope it won't take that long--but on 1minute per/ticket it most certainly will.

This was tried before and was a complete failure in more ways than one.If it is going to take as long as suggested it will put people from coming and will do nothing to encourage stay away supporters to return it is virtually as bad as only having one turnstile open.If teams like Featherstone have trouble getting in for N R cup games they are not likely to return for LEAGUE games could be another recipe for disaster for the club

Totally pathetic at the ticket office, people still stood outside at kick off, scrap the idea and let money be taken on the turnstiles again.

At least six people told me that they would not attend the next game because of the ticket fiasco---and that is not good news for the club. Those six people may have brought another six people to the next home game----they won't now. http://www.featherstonerovers.net/2009/reportdonrc.htm
