Well done Dave that is a generous offer to fellow fans. With regards to e-mails and queries, I e-mailed Jayne Bebb and got a response back in minutes after she reviewed my query over loyalty points........JayneBebb@shrewsburytown.co.uk Good luck to everyone still trying to get tickets

Jolly fine offer that a faith restoring one to, my brother did two hours in the rain earlier so I'm sorted, several still not. Thanks all the same. Think I queued up with him who does he work for??

Cintacting the club is a bit hit and miss. I emailed Jayne Bebb last week because I had no loyalty points showing (though I'm a STH) and have still had no reply. One of my sons emailed the ticket office on Friday re getting some loyalty points added and they called back on Monday to say he could get a ticket that day. Still not adjusted his loyalty points though. I'm sure it's been really busy and think the club has got most of the handling of this game right - keeping it organised and rewarding the most loyal fans first (the registered ones anyway) - but the loyalty points have been a bit hit and miss at times.

What with all this queuing in the rain for tickets, phone calls not being answered, no reply to e-mails, mix up with loyalty points, I hope the club get it sorted in time for the Rochdale game. We can't go through all this again.

Spent way too much of my day pressing redial, about one in ten connects, of those most go to an answer machine then go dead. The few remaining calls (about 6) were directed to ticketmaster who said they can't sell me a ticket and told me to call the number I was on! If I miss out because others have more points then fair enough but I'll be really p!ssed off if they go to open sale before I get a chance to buy one over the phone. As an exile I can't drive 5 hrs to join the queue or I would. Quite annoyed as to why they dropped online sales

I spent most of the day pressing redial on two phone lines as well as my wife and son trying at home, all with the same results as African. I have only seen people saying they had the same trouble and no one saying they got tickets by phone today. I suspect that the phones were not answered at all! houses the lot of them! Will have to go and queue in the morning to make sure I get my tickets - can't risk another day like today. Any ideas what time I should turn up to get to the front of the queue?

Guy who started queueing at Midnight was first in queue according to Sloppy Star. Good Luck

Sod that! Was thinking about turning up at 7ish,! Thanks anyway. We got there at 7.40 this morning and there were about 50 people in front of us if that's any help. By the time we left, with our tickets, there were hundreds in the q. Best of luck, hope you get sorted .

Speculatively tried to get a ticket today because I know that my daughter would quite like to go (although happy enough watching it on TV). I telephoned 233 times and didn't get as much success as African. Will use the money saved to watch on TV and get a takeaway and a few beers in after a day at work.

I'd have thought the queue on Thursday would be much shorter as so many bought them today

Thanks for the info, kip, what time did you manage to get away? About 9.20am. They opened the ticket office up at 8.45ish a bit earlier than planned, which helped.

Still would LOVE an explanation from the club as to how we have sold 6000 tickets. 6,000 - 1,500 = 4,500. I would be VERY surprised if we have over 4,500 fans with ST's/with over 20 loyalty points. This cannot be right ! Our attendances have been very poor this season. Absolute joke. Interesting to see how STFC value fans. Yes I should be OK as I have over 5 points however it's the principle of it that makes me so mad. Money talks ££££. **** the corporate gobs****s, **** the club for allowing them extra tickets. Surely only pursable explanation. Getting madder and madder the more I think about it tbh On a brighter note, see you at Blackpool tomorrow chaps ! Not that I've gained any extra 'loyalty' points from going to that or the game last weekend. COYB have you got yourself sorted Yes thank you Martin :-) :-) :-)

Had an early morning call in response to my email this morning, 4 tickets, block 14, sorted. My faith rekindled.
Genuine thanks to Jayne Bebb, fantastic.

I've looked at the STFC website regarding tickets and it says for general sale you need a supporters number.How do you go about getting one of those? I won't be going, I've got a far bigger game to go to on Saturday but my wife and daughter would like to go so I'd quite willingly queue for tickets tomorrow if any left but if I need a number then no point going.

The ticket office told me to register on line prior to queuing, you'll then have a number when you go and queue.

African and Constantinople are now sorted.
The amount of people collecting tickets from my house on Monday evening will get the neighbours thinking I have become a drug dealer!

I assume that the general sale tickets will only be available from the club tomorrow morning, not online or on the phone. Any idea what time they are likely to open up?

Thanks again mate!
Has anyone had any luck booking tickets over the phone?
Yesterday I tried 200+ times throughout the day. The vast majority beeped out before getting anywhere. Maybe 10% got through and after a couple of menus and automated messages, either ended up being cut off by Ticketmaster or for some reason ended up with me leaving a message on the club answerphone. I got through to talk to a person a grand total of two times, who both told me different things, but the upshot was they couldn't help me. I was then told to contact the club via exactly the same number I'd been calling (273943) and hope that it directed me to the club directly rather than Ticketmaster. Shambles!
To be fair, I emailed the club last night and they actually called me back not long ago, but not before Dave came to the rescue.
Still don't understand why the online option closed on Tuesday.
