Tomorrow - this ST/£3 thing can anyone help clarify this???

[puppet]

Can season ticket holders for NEXT season but not this season purchase tickets for tomorrow for £3 each?? I saw one post on the matter - can anyone clear this up for me? Thanks!

Season ticket holders for next season can piss off and wait their turn. Mercenary bastards, buying season tickets just so they qualify for a few offers.

FFS, where's Batho when you need him (probably refilling the air fresheners in the ladies bogs), he'd sort you out you tool

Thanks for your help *groans*

I'm not entirely sure to be honest, I would think it unlikely if this was stopped, but technically it does seem a grey area.

They definitely can, thats how I got my tickets.

For clarification these were the e-mails to and from Richard Batho. Fantastic customer service from the Blades and Richard in particular.

Hi David

Thanks for your e mail; the answer to both your questions is a very unequivocal yes. I hope you enjoy both the games.

Richard,

I hope you dont mind me contacting and hopefully you are the right person to contact.

Just a couple of queries, firstly with regards to the FA Youth Cup Final, the statement from the club says that entry is free to season ticket holders for this season and next.

Does this only mean existing ST holders who have renewed or does it include fans such as myself who dont have a ST for this season but have bought 4 for next season?

On a similar theme, as a ST holder for next season would I be able to purchase 4 x £3 tickets for the Barnsley game on Saturday?

Happy to discuss

'I hope you enjoy both games'.

T'old Batho obviously doesn't get to many games.

Anyone got any idea how many of these £3 tickets we have sold? I'd like to think at least 3-4k have been shifted.

Yep, coming up with the answers to the questions that all we fans really need to hear after one of the most catastrophic seasons in our history.
