Need a favour... Would anyone be able to get us a couple of adult tickets in for the Wolves game? I know I may get shot down for jumping the queue here but it's a tad difficult for me to get things sorted with the amount of time available to those with no points and when the general sale comes about. As I'm making an effort to come over I'd like to be sure of seeing the game. Would really appreciate it if someone could help us out. Cheers...

One way of avoiding massive queues and unanswered phone calls, get someone else to do your dirty work! What a great idea!

Hey bud, its bad enough when the locals who only come out of the woodwork on special occasions ring me up and ask me to get them four tickets because I am a season ticket holder and who are indignant when I tell them to go forth. I read of the queues today and went online and bought the ONE ticket that I was entitled to. I expected to get two but to get the second one I would have to go and freeze my b******s off and stand in a queue for a considerable period of time. I am sure that you will understand when I decided better of it. Still as a moderator on this board I am sure it wont be long before you have pulled a few strings and got your self sorted. Good luck and all the very best and in the words of the Dragons Den team I will say I'm out!!

Season ticket holders should do the honourable thing and just buy their own ticket Least then the rest of us will have half a chance of getting a ticket

Yes I was just thinking that. I believe the club will regret the decision to allow season ticket holders 4 tickets!!! Would imagine the two children coming will be over 18 too. Potential for trouble with wolves supporter's in the home end

Stutty, on stfc website recent news they have said that if you can't get through on the phone you can email tickets@shrewsburytown.co.uk and they will call you back. If you explain your situation they may be able to get back to you when tickets go on general sale. Worth a try if no- one can help you out.

Club should have done priority like this for me:
Anyone who went to all 5 FA Cup games so far, counting down daily to just 1 attended General sale
Simple as that for me. If you couldn’t be arsed to go to Salford/Sc***horpe, you have zero right to jump the queue now.
And before I get shot down, I only did 3/5 so far

Think I'm sorted now anyhow, someone has been kind enough to offer to help me out. B&A at its best... It's a bit difficult for me at times to appreciate that I might be seen as fair weather, jumping the queue and what have you but then I do understand that may be the case with others who have seen a lot more games of late and will be still be looking for a ticket. Hope everyone who is looking to go gets themselves sorted...

I don't know a season ticket holder but do have points so will wait and if their are any left once the 3000 season ticket holders their friends and there friends children have all got tickets. eg 12,000 I will sit down with my number, my sons number. and daughters, number (We all have points )and try to get three seats all together. New (any that go normally will have points) children going is great but think the stoke game was the game to do this not one that will sell out any way.

If it does not work out Stutty I could help with that when they go on loyalty points sale.

Personally I think the club has been too generous with its offer to season ticket holders BUT as long as all the deserving Town fans do get tickets then alls well that ends well.

Stutty spends a lot of time on here and appears to watch most games on Ifollow so has probably watched Salop more than most of us this season.
As long as the 5-6000 regulars get a seat I couldn't care less who the other 2-3000 go to.

As long as the 5-6000 regulars get a seat I couldn't care less who the other 2-3000 go to. I think that's the issue though, there aren't 5-6,000 regulars. It's not the same 5,500 people at every home game is it? There's 3,300 regulars who have a ST, then the additional 2,000-2,500 home supporters at any given match are from the wider fanbase, probably consisting of 10,000+ supporters. The problem is in making sure that the remaining 5,000 or so home tickets (after ST holders have had one each) go to those who are deserving. At the moment they are not.

Agree it’s unfair STH potentially can get 4.... just queued for 90 mins and got mine and most seem to be buying extra but hopefully for regular fans... I bought one for my son who has 9 loyalty points but would have had to queue on Sunday so not taking one from a regular who’ll miss out...
Having said that there have been 30 plus game to get loyalty points and don’t away games count double?
Only advice is organise your lives a bit better 👍

Only advice is organise your lives a bit better 👍 Agreed - there’s little, actually no sympathy from me for those who don’t buy in advance and get the loyalty points It’s the gamble you take, given the amount of big home cup games we’ve had the last 5 years I thought people would’ve learnt by now

I have loyalty points and been to games this season etc etc even Crewe away. Just like many others I'm not a close friend of a season ticket holder which now seems to be the new way to get a ticket. (Must put money aside for season ticket holder bribes next year instead of going to league games!) Seriously though I do think everyone from season ticket holders then ten points then 9-1 should be allowed a +1 like the West ham game and everyone seemed to get in ok for that one. I have not been to as many as some and have less than 10 points so hope any one who as get's one on Sunday and i'll be on line Tues morning with my fingers crossed there's some left for the 9 points and under.
