Guess that includes an ad break as well then :b

:sleeping

I wish they'd get their feckin ticket office sorted first. You have to listen to a recorded message for 3 minutes to a scouse accent that GRATES like you wouldn't believe >: so you feel like you've an ear full of phlegm only to be told at the end by a 'posh' bird that the lines are busy and call back later.

Why can't they say that at the beginning so you haven't wasted time and money listening to shite :banghead :b anghead:banghead

Our ticket line is awful,but the pompey accent is far worse to listen too than scouse,ill give you that

This story was in the paper

Someone went up to the ground (Anfield) for tickets for the derby and he said to the women could he have 2 please cause he was a season ticket holder and had the book/card thing there.She said sorry you have to ring up.He said come off it love,She said YOU HAVE TO RING UP.So he gets his Mobile phone out and rings up the ticket line number,low and behold the girl on the other side of the glass picks up the phone ,and says can i have your name and all that crap,then she said can i have your season ticket member number,so he starts tapping the book up against the window so she could see it ,She then says your tickets will be sent out in the post Sir(All this is still over the phone!)He says can't you just pass me them now,she says no sorry they will be sent out in the post,he got them first thing next morning.

All that when the club should let her just pass them over the counter !

Oh yeah if i hear Mr pompey ringing that bell at the game at Anfield,i will be getting a seat above the away supporters end and i will personally throw my cup of coke on the shits(Mr Pompeys) head ! !

I remember when he rang it all through the game on tv at fulham,it drove me and the whole of the betfair forum to suicide almost !

Sorry pompey but that line is about 60 p a minute and this helps the club make about £11 million a year.How else do you think we pay for £11 million mistakes like Heskey and Diouf!

Thats a great story

Granted the Pompey accent is a bit bad, every time I go back home they sound more and more cockney. But the woman on the end of that liiiiiiiiiiiine who says you need a stub from the Leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeds game (spit) before you can get a ticket for the Cittttty game >: needs to sit next to John Westwood (pompey bell man) for the whole of the game.

I still haven't got any tickets. I haven't got a feckin phone left after that experience after I threw it to the ground and stamped on it. :banghead

[PompeyPunt]

needs to sit next to John Westwood

Fcuking hell, that's enough to drive anyone mad.

I've been sitting about 10 rows behind that pi55ed old fart and his bell for about that last 5 seasons now

Sometimes i go home, and i hear ringing in my ears when i sleep at night.

I was quite suprised he is aloud into grounds with it in the first place !

I mean if you have a can,plastic bottle with coke etc or even somtimes cameras they take them off you incase you throw it at the players,If he through that bell at someone it would @#%$ kill them

Mixed feelings about the draw - we finally got tickets for the league game only for it to be bastid postponed due to the reply. >: Which means having to talk to the phlegm girls again >: while arranging a refund. League game will now probably be midweek so a bit of a pain to get to.

Anyone know of another number other than the rop-off ticket office to get a refund? Ta.

[PompeyPunt]

Fooking £31 quid for the replay Belle That's the cheapest tickets to.

I've never paid that much for a ticket in my life, and i've been going to watch Pompey constantly for about 9 years now, only missed about 3 home games in that time.

To be honest, if this is the Prem, pushing the real fans out pricewise, then i hope we get relegated. To be honest i don't care what division we are in, i will always support my team 100%. Div 1 here we come

I'd echo those sentiments Pompeypunt. I remember standing at the Fratton end paying £6 a ticket when there were gates of 6500. I've seen North Stand (family season ticket holders) have to pay £35 - that is a disgrace. How can they justify that?

[Ciderbottle]

I have to agree with you both there, very expensive.

For the Manchester FA Cup Derby I had a front row ticket for £20. I thought that was great value

[PompeyPunt]

You can't justify it at all PompeyBelle, it is a disgrace, simple as that.

I remember only as far back as about 7 seasons ago, it was £3 for me to get in as a junior.

Most of my best Pompey memories have some from games where the crowds have been about 8000-10000, where you don't have to take out a loan just to get a ticket. The infamous Pompey V Stockport night for pompey fans for instance. As soon as you get the Jonny come Lately's, everything changes, and nobody remembers loyalty to the fans who were there through thick and thin, the ones who were there week in week out even when were complete dog sh1te. These are the fans who deserve the Premier League, and these are the fans now priced out, or not able to get a ticket because someone who hasn't watched Pompey for 20 years decides now they are in the Prem, they will jump on the bandwagon

It makes me angry, and if we go down, and are poo again, so be it, at least i can go and watch my team without being ripped off, and without the bandwagoners


Ciderbottle, £20 for the manchester derby is a reasonable price, i would just about fork out £20 happily for a Pompey game, as i understand about a need for increases in ticket prices to an extent for Premiership clubs, but £30+ is a disgrace

Ditto pompey, totally agree. Living away I cannot get to Fratton as often as I'd like (especially not this season) but attend as many away games as possible locally (Yorks) and try to get to Fratton every 5/6 weeks when I am home. I remember going to places like Grimsby, Rotherham, Stockport, Barnsley etc, right sh1tholes, on Tues/Wed eves freezing my proverbial t1ts off. Like to see Jonny Bandwagon and his prawn sarnies in places like that.

£20 for a front row seat for a Manc derby, Cider, is tremendous value. Within spitting distance, even

[Ciderbottle]

I know, could have hit Fowler no probs!!!!!

But from my perspective having to come so far, I'm not as price sensitive to the tickets inlike you fna s who can make it on a more regular basis.

I thought £20 value, what are the prices around other clubs?

[PompeyPunt]

Well i gave in to the pressure and bought a ticket for £31

We better not lose to those scousers now.

Aye I hope so too

Limited tickets on sale tomorrow morning, hoping my brother can get a few and I'll fork out the cash to go. Goes against my better principles though, and I'll probably end up a few drinks in hand watching it on t'tele.

[PompeyPunt]

I think there is around 1000 available, maybe a few less. But limited could mean anything really, i know a few of ST holders who just won't go because price

You could try ringing to if you fancy going, people been telling me they were on phone for hours, but it only took me about 5 mins and 7 or 8 redials

The ticket office is actually a lot better these days though, i remember a few season back they sent my season ticket by post, to the wrong house in my street, with the wrong season ticket inside, with my name on it
