Has this offer been publicised in the MEN or just online?

Is that based on new figures? In 2007, Salford Council reckoned about 17% of its residents had access to an internet connection. No doubt it’s risen since then.

Surely everyone has access to the Internet, aren't public library's etc hooked up these days for general public usage?

they have more computers than books nowadays

oh yeah bigpev i forgot salford was the most organized club and if i just say my name and address they will hand the tickets over!

I received a text about the offer over the weekend.

Whilst I applaud the efforts of the club isn't this another reason not to join the membership scheme?

In theory; but you have to be a member of the libraries first. Plus you wouldn't be advised to purchase anything via them, especially after the Google/China/IE6 thing recently.

However, I guess the amount of people that can now access the internet through their mobile phones has gone through the roof. Mobile optimised websites and native apps are increasingly important for us here. The club haven't been slow to realise it either; they've been championing an SMS ticketing system for years.

Yes. Even though it may only be for one game, after speaking to a couple of long-time season ticket holders yesterday, who didn't renew this year because (to paraphrase them) there always seems to be cheap tickets knocking about, I sense they feel their decision was vindicated.

all im saying is it states nowhere on your email or the advertisement as to how you get your tickets,well if its on gameday then great but why not just put that in the promotion?some clubs do mail them out to you and some people may think thats what salford are doing as you give your address.i just didnt want to turn up friday give my name and address then nothing!i hope you appreciate my concerns!

yes but it dsnst state that when ordereing them!you can check it out online at salford reds if you dnt believe me!it states nothing about no later than 20minutes anywhere and as im not the only one who has brought this up i cnt be that thick!

All i can go on is what Radcliffred says, there must be a message somewhere when you order for Rad to see it, he normally misses the obvious.

sorry pal, but i can also confirm that no info came either on the site or with the confirmation email. I've no idea how RR found out, but I've still heard nothing other than his word for it.
