Haven't seen it mentioned here but can whoever's going ask about the mess that is the ASEC tie up. I think we can all accept we don't have the money to go into litigation over the one player who's signed for someone else, but it appears we were doing very little to manage the situation. Is the whole tie up and other three players now dead in the water?
Well I reckon the Club has "closed for business" by now and I didn't get a reply to my e mail which admittedly was only sent on Friday morning. I e mailed Telnotinoz earlier as he suggested so will wait and see what happens.
My brother didnt get a reply he only sent his last wednesday, hopefully he does and i will be going as his guest. I think he has emailed telnotinoz too. Fingers crossed!

I'd also like to know what's going on with that, both the deal in general and any players we own or recently owned.
We also have several deals with clubs around Europe (and China), would be interesting to know if any of them are still in place or whether they have all now ended.
These deals have often been announced, but when some of deals in the past have ended it's no so obvious.
Tel has kindly replied and said that I will be on a "waif and stray" list but given the distance I have to travel I dont want to do that.
Very disappointed with the attitude of the Club over this. Still they have my daughter's and my season ticket money in their sky rocket so why would they bother to have the courtesy to reply to my e mail (even to say sorry no already full up) even though they stated on Henry's Bible the OS that "all applicants would receive a reply by close of business Monday."
A cynic might say that the directors don't actually want fans to attend hence this whole shambles of an application process.
At least we now know how the Club really regards loyal season ticket holders. I shall remember that in future seasons.
*Awaits torrent of posts telling me what an unreasonable attitude I'm displaying*
Len this is "service as usual" from a club in the 3rd level of football. Its just been so long ago that we were at this low that we have forgotten, how shit it all was.
Len as i have mentioned before the club have laid off competent staff so therefor you are not going to get the quality of service you are used to! I have said this a number of times.
If this is the first sign of the level of service we are to expect after all the cut backs we are going to be in for some fun next season.

My point is simply why say on the Official site that we will receive a reply by "close of business Monday" when they have no intention of complying with that?
It's being lied to that really annoys me! I could accept it had they e mailed be telling me the Event is full. I left it late to apply so fair dos. However don't promise something and then don't do it. That is what really galls.

I'm sure they didnt lie and I am sure they intended to comply with their promise. If you want to go you are more than welcome to come with me.
Len you are not understanding what i am saying and you are being very unreasonable by saying you are being lied to - thats well over the top. They just dont have the staff to carry out this task.
Its all down to a lack of manpower. Len Knows he can get in and its not a problem.....Im just waiting on a phone call and I will post an update on where we are currently....

Then why give a deadline on the Official site?
If somebody says they are going to do something and then doesn't do it then that statement is a lie in my book.
I don't blame the people on the shop floor trying to sort through the applications but whichever of the 3 Chief Executive types who issued the edict from his ivory tower without considering the realities of the job.

Thank you but I applied for myself and my daughter as we are both season ticket holders.

That made me laugh. Many years ago when I still used to work, I sent a reporter to test the security systems in Whitehall by flashing a Blockbuster Video membership card. He got into the FCO, the Dept of Health, DTI and even the MOD. It was only when he tried to get into the Cabinet Office that he was finally rumbled !

Think that is crap personally. That is no fault of the customer, they shouldn't have laid people off then should they?
Comments
Would seem that way, wouldnt it?....but then again just three more days and you can ask the question
Done!
Anyone else not get a reply or was it just me?

Fair play to Tel for trying to help so many people, but he shouldn't have to 'help anyone' in the first place.
Hadn't had an email by the time i left work, and i doubt it will be in my inbox in the morning.
Should have phoned them Nat..........

What did it say?? Sorry but your too late applying try next year ;-)
Probably got his mates on the board like Derek Chappell to pull strings for him.
Couldn't have the Admin of the "pro-club" board not being there to ask some soft questions : - )

Spot on.
