Understand the frustration of those who didn’t get a ticket but for the most part I think the club have sold them in a very fair way. The only thing I didn’t agree with was people being able to buy 10 tickets on the final release but that was probably done with best intentions to reduce the numbers having to queue up. Somr of the things being posted on here however are a tad ridiculous.
Bigger venue? Judging by numbers sold to Giants fans over 2,500 Devils fans will have tickets - our average crowd is around 3,000 so that is over 80% of our average. Last time we were in the final in Sheffield maximum of 1,500 travelled. Even if more travelled this time a circa. 3,500 crowd in a 9,500 seat arena wouldn’t create much of an atmosphere.
The computer sales ticket system may not be state of the art but for 95% of the games it works fine. Surely people can’t really expect the club to invest a fortune in a better system just for the 1 game a year when it becomes overloaded?
Finally, if I wasn’t a ST holder and was that desperate to get a ticket I would have found a way. I’d have been queuing at the rink or asking someone to go for me, or even taken time of work to get there, but that’s just me!
