Still feeling a little watered off at not being able to get tickets for this match. I telephoned at 3.45pm yesterday (pirate leisure ) asking to purchase one ticket stating I am a season ticket holder and the reply was "everyone is a season ticket holder and you'll have to come in person " Well as I live 40 miles away I stated we were leaving at 5.30 for the game and was told on arrival all tickets had gone. But to my dismay my mates had successfully purchased over the phone that same day. ( they also come from a similar area to me ). The thing that has watered me off is why they were allowed to purchase over the phone and not myself ? If anyone does have a ticket that cannot be used for any reason I would be interested in purchasing it but only for the price it originally sold for. I am certainly not going to line anyones pocket. I've got one for £240 if you are interested. I don't think my Mrs is fussed about the match!

the chelsea website wont accept bristol postcode But did accept my CF39 Rhondda postcode ... was a bugger when I bought off our own site for the Cardiff game though. Taking a flag and hoping to find a cheeky spot to hang it.

I was in the queue at the mem when they announced that 800 tickets remained. I know some people were purchasing tickets over the phone at this point. A man came out and started counting people in the queue and how many tickets remained, some people in there were getting 20 odd tickets at a time! Wael started moving along the queue shaking hands and talking, and he mentioned that they cancelled purchasing over the phone just to make sure the people queuing could get a ticket. I know it's no consolation to you but may be an explanation as to why some people could book on the phone and others couldn't

GL Gloucestershire post code is OK for ordering tickets from Chelsea,so looks like it's just BS post codes that can't purchase tickets

Unfortunate situation, but what are the club supposed to do - turn away someone who has been queueing for an hour and a half because someone else has just bought a ticket on the phone?

Why didn't people in the queue try phoning the shop while they were standing about?

Why didn't people in the queue try phoning the shop while they were standing about? I didn't use my initiative because no-one told me to.
