| Talking to Fax fans yesterday I thought they might be up for their visit to our place especially after their win.
A lot said they would not be coming because of our ridiculous ticketing arrangements. Of course they mentioned the delay in actually getting their tickets. One lad in his thirties said it was 3-20pm when he finally got his last season and so he deliberately asked for and was given a concessionary ticket.
I know it is not our clubs fault and explained and mentioned tickets could now be purchased online. A howl of protest from fans who have not got internet access.
Looking on the Fev board we have not sent them any tickets for tomorrows game ? I wonder why ?
I would have thought the LSV would have sorted this out with our club by now but it seems not.
A bit of trust from the LSV on this would be appreciated and maybe if they read this post they might give us their thinking on it.
The other thing which is mentioned a lot is folk turning up late and thus the queues. No wonder in view of the prices of beer and other things sold at the stadium by the caterers. This really needs to be addressed by the LSV management in my view.

| Couldn't agree more Frank, i've got a mate who's a Widnes fan who finished work at 7 o'clock on thursday in Leigh and didn't bother going as he said he didn't want to miss kick off.

| I agree. The online ticketing is a big step forward but we desperately need pay on the gate.
I trust you've sent them an email as well as doing this?

| Why not send it to LSV instead of hoping someone reads it

| Pay on the gate would help but if people turn up at 5 to 3 then what do they expect?

| Frank,
After the Halifax game last year, I picked up on the complaints of 'Fax fans and emailed them all to the Club, who passed them on to LSV. I had a phone call from the Chief Exec (of LSV) offering me a tour of the stadium! I agree with you - we (the Club and LSV) need to listen to the views of away (and home!) fans to improve things. After all it's in everyone's interests to get as many people as possible, through the turnstiles.

The way things have been managed, I have wondered if LSV is remotely concerned with the bleedin' obvious.

953.jpg 2015 - major missed opportunity, 2016 - stronger teams = harder task (no problem there then), 2017 - OMG What now!!!:953.jpg |

| while we may not like it, thats how it is at the moment. After all you don't turn up at the pictures 2 minutes before a film is advertised to show. Come on guys 20 minutes less in the pub isn't going to hurt plus you have park inn that have offers on match days plus leigh east. Get your ticket at 1 even and walk across to easts. Away supporters i can understand but leythers, come on now, you know the deal. Things cannot always remain the same, embrace it, move with the times and if you want a reminder of bygone days get yourself a scarf and join the twiddlers!

| Well I have never missed a kick off at the LSV or an away match come to that. It may surprise some but I like watching RL and can do without a pint for a couple of hours but that is hardly the point.
The more folk that go into the stadium the better for our club and the LSV. The LSV should open two cash turnstyles and although I am a season ticket holder we should be bending over backwards to make sure we do not lose one person from missing a game because they do not like queing for tickets despite the stated policy or us living in an internet age or heading for a cashless society.
It is the customer who counts and if the customer wants cash turnstyles if it was my buisness I was running I would provide it.
For those who think latecomers would still have to queue in a cash turnstyle queue we are talking about employing 2 extra people for 2 hours and the ticket office last minute queue would be shorter too.

| also advising visiting supporters coaches to leave 30 minutes earlier than they used to would go along way to alleviating the queues...simples

| What reason do the LSV give for not doing the bleeding obvious and opening a cash gate?
