Well, it's down to your own daft attitude so don't go blaming the Crusaders for that. That's entirely your own responsibility.
And you wouldn't be the first Saints fan to be within spitting distance of a live game but instead opt to go into the pub!

| I think I'll not bother now. I am working till 4 in Preston. Had it been advertised as ticket only sooner, I would have got one from the club shop on Friday night.
But oh no. This is rugby league. We have to be awkward and make people's lives difficult.
So, instead of bombing down the motorway and handing some nice lady some money and walking through a turnstyle, I'll sit at home. The farce of turning up and having to queue to get a ticket for an unreserved stand with little time to get in as it is has put me off.

How about asking one of your 3 friends who lives in Wrexham to pick up your ticket or go to your club shop? If prefer watching away games from the pub rather than live in a Stadium thats fine too.

Not really,how hard is it to open a cash turnstyle ?.Why treat customers like this.I run a business and i make it as easy as possible for customers to part with their money.
I want Crusaders to become an established club in Wrexham,i relly want it to work,but listening to the stories from Salford fans who couldnt get in i really think they are going the wrong way trying to attract fans.After all its not as if its going to be a sell out.

| Why is it such a problem getting a ticket from the office and then walking for one minute to get into the ground?
Many of you will have to walk past the ticket office from your cars before you get to your allocated stand.

i'd have to agree mate, whats the fecking problem? its an away game so you arrive AT LEAST 30-15 mins early, plenty time to buy your ticket, talk about making a mountain out of a molehill!

For most Saints fans, none. For some Saints fans, it's just another excuse to go to the pub to watch the match!

The problem I am having is the mahoosive queuing in line with the potential for this mahoosive queuing to result in me missing a good portion of the first half.
Had this been made clear sooner, I would have a ticket in my hand now.

I hope you have a season pass. It would be a shame for you to miss Saints last ever game at Knowsley Road because it's ticket only and it would be to much hassle for you to get one!

What's that got to do with standing in a queue for a ticket for 15-20mins?
Would wife and kids not have come first if you'd only had to queue for 5 minutes on a cash turnstile?

| If the game is made all ticket because it will sell out fine, but at a half empty ground how hard can it be to operate a couple of cash turnstiles.
That said I can remember going to wakey couple of years back and having to wait outside for a while for someone else to pay cash at the turnstile cos I was paying for a 15 quid ticket with a twenty.
