I called Sally Eagling when we got to the BSP play-off final and she arranged everything. Maybe Kerry has too much on her plate to bother with looking after the fans.

Bloody typical. That's going to look great if we don't get many fans up there will be a gert gap in the middle!

email campaign needed, everyone on here send club an email saying we want to be able to specify a block and also have yellow army area directly behind goal.
all of you, off your arses and send one, right now
also why start at the corners, how odd is that gonna look??
email addresses here
http://www.torquayunited.com/page/Conta ... 45,00.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
i just sent this to
[email protected] :-
i understand that the tickets are being sold from the corners outwards and we cannot choose which block we want to be in??
why has this ludicrous decision been made with out any recourse to the fans wishes??
stevenage have declared a barmy army area behind the goal to enable the fans who want to create the atmosphere can all sit together, surely the logical thing would be to do the same for our vocal supporters, the yellow army?
i suggest that you remedy this situation as soon as possible so that we can help the team by making as much noise as possible
it cant be difficult to ask those people who express a desire to sit in a certain section their choice at the point of sale?
regards

That is total nonsense. Someone at the club has made this decision.
Stevenage have a "Barmy Army" section so why can't we have a Yellow Army section?

No idea. Thats just what they were telling people who were asking why they couldnt choose what block they wanted to go in.

Are you definately sure that students are allowed because I don't particularly trust the Torquay representative. If I get a conncesionary ticket and am not allowed in I will hit the roof!

My mate asked and they said yes just said to take his student card with him to proof he was a Student. If they screw that up he's going to be pretty pissed off!

Just been and got my tickets,got the same response ,you can not choose your block and the club are saying Old Trafford have told them to sell the tickets this way.
Mind you Dave S/G is right ,went with my mate, he asked for 5 tickets and i asked for 2 ,all 7 in a row,the answer was we can only do 4 in a row.
My mate said if you flick throught the tickets you will find 7 in a row,of which they did ,and guess what they did find 7 in a row,so it does appear the tickets need sorting out ,and our club appear not to have the time.

Yeah I brought six. Ive got two tickets next to each other all over the place. Sperated about 4 in row AA (Not next to each other) and 2 in row BB!! Would of thought they'd at least have tickets in order so people wishing to sit with each other will have done.
