Re: ticket office : Wed Jul 27, 2011 1:10 pm  

had someone go down this morning to get my tickets, got the seats i wanted too
glad i didnt have to go down, annoyed by the attitude i usually get from ticket office staff act as if they are doing you a favour by letting you get tickets
Apparently lots of complaints about the size of the ground from those in the queue

Got there at 8.50 and it was just before 11 when I got served! They've only got 4 people serving and it takes them a good 3-4 minutes per customer! Anyone ringing the ticket office - use 0113 203 3291 instead of the 0871 number given on the website which charges 10p a minute. You'll save a fair few bob seeing as most people are 'on hold' for an hour or so.

Two hour wait for me too from just about the same time as mirfield. And as someone else mentioned, I heard a few grumblings along the lines of "why the hell are we playing this at a pokey little ground like the Keepmoat". Looks like general sale tickets will be at a premium come friday morning methinks!

I think, still, that the stadium size is right. The club put on their facebook that they sold in the region of 7,500 tickets for the semi last year so seems about right to me!

Say no to 0870, or in this case 0871?

I love that site. Screw you HMRC and your ridiculous charges!

Re: ticket office : Wed Jul 27, 2011 1:35 pm  

Well one things for sure a full Keepmoat will look good on the telly, which I suppose is the effect that the RFL were after. Still I wouldnt like to think that I couldnt get a ticket until Friday morning if I wasnt a ST holder or similar.

Damn right - bet it's saved me hundreds of quid over the years.

I had to get mine from the RFL as I wanted an ambulant disabled and carers ticket (even though we're season ticket holders). Phoned at 9.30am and got straight through. Probably helped that our website says they're not selling them until Friday.

Just over 2100 tickets sold at close of business.

Not as many as I expected.
