RP - I agree, superb for gigs and far less chance of seeing touts outside venues, never had an issue with ticket not working, but I do get that it doesn’t suit everyone (my sister is only 71, but she doesn’t “do” internet at all, and therefore struggles with a lot of tasks that are almost exclusively geared for people who have a smartphone and broadband….).

I go to 60+ gigs a year and phone tickets have been a thing for just about all of them since Covid. I make sure my phone is charged and have never had a problem. Multiple platforms (even the hated SeeTickets) all just work.

Does seem odd to do the trial run of DonsTix on the highest profile game to date at the new ground. I wasn’t going to take any chances on that and just opted for the “old school” e-ticket, which, just to be even older school, I have printed out.

It’s a pity so many people can’t do digital tickets; it’s probably only a small minority, but there does need to be an option to collect a paper ticket on the day (maybe there already is…?) - some are unable, and some unwilling, to do QR/barcode tickets, and for those people there should be support, whether it’s a simple step by step guide as to how to download/save them, or a dedicated desk for them to collect from on matchday (albeit they do need to make the effort to get to the ground early enough that they aren’t still queuing up when the game kicks off…).

Hash-was that ironic? It sure sounded it

CW can't see it going wrong. We are pretty good with this kind of thing usually.

Form a 9am queue Saturday then😂

Unfortunately it's the banks that want cash dead,.. not enough money to be made,.

Launching a new ticket app just before the biggest game for years does sound like a recipe for disaster

Club email says tickets available 5pm Thursday

TBK you have a strange idea of what dead means then.

yes, probably bad news to arrive just before KO on Saturday

I love the way this new ticket system is dressed up as being smoother. I have never been in any queue where using your phone has been anything else but fraught, creating delays and a general pain in the arse. But then it is the new way and so it must better.

Had to fork out for a membership but play-off ticket brought… and a hotel for Friday night…

TBF, assuming Kenty & Spit aimed that in my direction, I'm usually good at this stuff and have had a non SEN try to get to an ticket. Think I was in the first batch, and subsequent emails are probably OK, but mine doesn't link to any ticket, bar code or QR code

Ccl cup final on weds cobbham vs NGU at sheerwater ground 730 ko

First bridge is that I bought mine for someone else to use, but it's not printable...

Yep queue up get your ticket in your hand,much better than relying on computers,.people have lost so much social skill and can'tthink for themselves ,probably why they sound pompous on here😂

TBK, I was at the LEB, Legal and General, Stock Exchange and SB/GSK

😆😆 O'Dee

CM, think I tried that but it wouldn't let you select just year, only month and year as Meadow put.

Keefy, as per the latest OS ticket article "Tickets will be uploaded into DonsTix by Thursday 5pm." and "Tickets typically appear in the app approximately 5 days before the match. You’ll receive a notification when they’re available."

Re DonsTix. Do you not just click on May 2025 and it will bring up a list of all prior years so you don't have to scroll back month on month??

Interesting that we're charging £30 top whack for a play-off semi-final whereas it's £41 for a humdrum league fixture vs Barrow

Was it really? I remember having to queue for hours to get FA Cup semi-final tickets in '97. I think you'd be surprised how much technology has improved our lives giving us all so much more time to waste posting bollocks on places like this.
