Spot on. Season ticket holders should be able to buy by phone. Non season ticket holders......please no repeat of before.....if it's an away game may need to take a day off work (2 if it's Newcastle), can't afford another day off to queue all day as well. If it's stubs based on future matches again then you run into the same problems if you get a big club like Spurs, Liverpool, Arsenal etc. i.e. Southend fans miss out again. It shouldn't happen again. Fortunately I got a ticket for Man U but I saw too many others miss out on the day 
Better or just better for you?[b said:
Request to the ticket office staff - PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE sell ORM's ticket for the rest of the season![b said:Quote[/b] (* ORM * @ Nov. 08 2006,22:43)]Well they failed miserably in my case. Being a season ticket holder I queued with a big smile on my face last Sunday and got my ticket. Imagine my surprise when Leeboy phoned me yesterday to say there was someone in my seat (V block near the front). I then checked my ticket to find I'd been allocated somewhere completely different (S block near the back). Was I a fool for not checking and assuming it would be in the same place as my seaso ?
I arrived at the ground thinking I'd evict the poor lass but she gave me such a warm smile and the prospect of not having to listen to Leeboy whinge about Cheese not playing and Beaver farting was too good to turn down.
So you can imagine my double delight when the seat I had been allocated was double sold.Fortunately I managed to slum it in W with the chavs.
It's ok to laugh and joke about it now but it was no laughing matter at 7.50 last night. No response from the club yet though I fully understand that they may have been a tad busy today.
Well they work in training, they just sail over Darryl's head....[b said:Quote[/b] (The Late One @ Nov. 08 2006,23:08)]The rubbish this guy comes out with about Captain Kev, he even thinks his passes from the corner flag to the opposing goalkeepers are great

Dave you are a complete star! Yes please
It was also a pleasure not having to sit next to someone who does a good impression of an old man with Parkinsons[b said:Quote[/b] (The Late One @ Nov. 08 2006,23:08)]Request to the ticket office staff - PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE sell ORM's ticket for the rest of the season![b said:Quote[/b] (* ORM * @ Nov. 08 2006,22:43)]Well they failed miserably in my case.

I take it you are referring to Parkinsons of the Phil variety, that have nothing good to say about Southend[b said:Quote[/b] (Beaver @ Nov. 09 2006,07:04)]It was also a pleasure not having to sit next to someone who does a good impression of an old man with Parkinsons
