Geelong Game - Reserved Seat Tickets

mordi · Post: # 925360Post **mordi** » Mon 17 May 2010 12:54pm

I can't see a thread on this already.....(apologies if missed)

All reserved seat holders should have received an email/letter with details on how to get your "free" reserved seat. Key point to note is, get your rego number ( I got mine , but had to ring club for kids) , and opens today at 1.00pm.

Dear Member,
Re: Round 13 St Kilda v Geelong, MCG, Friday June 25, 2010

What happened to SC Seating???

Pity that a LOT of reserved seat holders dont have their letter yet, and tix are available from 1pm today

mordi · Post: # 925429Post **mordi** » Mon 17 May 2010 2:09pm

letter only refers to Reserved Seat holders, I would ring the club.

mordi · Post: # 925431Post **mordi** » Mon 17 May 2010 2:10pm

I haven't received hard copy, only the email.

I would call the club ASAP.

I'm a reserved seat holder and got two email and a letter last week. Other members of my family got no emails or letters and had to call the club this morning for the reservation numbers. So if you haven't received anything call the club now.

What about the Ponsford Stand?
In previous games we as reserved seat holders could sit in the Ponsofrd. This time we get ot sit in the outer without cover in 6 and a half bays of seats. Hope it doesn't rain.

So my question is are we as a club getting diddled, ripped off or ignored with the fact that this is our home game.

if it was the filith, their contract is quite clear, their social club members have full access to the Ponsford?

mordi · Post: # 925458Post **mordi** » Mon 17 May 2010 2:31pm

we are on hff/wing = better IMHO than behind goals

mordi · Post: # 925506Post **mordi** » Mon 17 May 2010 2:59pm

Took 15 min on hold, Bay M14 Row W .........feels like the finals yey!

The Fireman · Mon 17 May 2010 3:01pm

Got mine pretty easy and quick....N51 row D

We managed to get ours straight away - M15 Row T - not impressed with the wording of the letter saying we can obtain a "complimentary" ticket. The ticket is not FREE as we have already paid for it.

saintspremiers · Mon 17 May 2010 5:37pm

Got my "free" ticket in M14 Row S.

I wonder how many of these tickets will end up on ebay if we continue our shyte form?

I love it how the tickets are only "free" if you use internet ticketing!

Mr Magic · Post: # 925660Post **Mr Magic** » Mon 17 May 2010 5:48pm

We got our 8 in N31, Row B

I logged on about 3:30pm and eventually found where I was supposed to go on their website.

No problems - these were the first option they gave me - bewteen the 50m and wing - as good as I would expect!

Any word on Social club seating for this game. I gather from that email that there is no special seating for Social club. Not happy with that. Will have to book something I guess. Anyone know when the normal reserve seating goes on sale?

Got our group of 9 at about 7.45pm. M14 Row U but theres really no bad seats in that allocation

Id be really dissapointed if there was no Social Club facilities..its our freaking home game. I remember a home game there we played a few years ago where they forgot to allocate a SC area til quite late....and ended up being on Level 2 of the Ponsford Stand where that dining room is..and the seats in front

Yes Id definately contact the Club

Jiggster and family: M15, row W.

They are saying the entitlements is exhausted WTF?

saintbrat · Post: # 925883Post **saintbrat** » Mon 17 May 2010 11:18pm

interesting
Sainters on the ball-- and getting in early
I got M 12 about 7 pm.

wonder if there is release sequence....

sainter35 · Post: # 926025Post **sainter35** » Tue 18 May 2010 11:25am

M11 Row Y.

I presume they are starting with M16 and moving towards the goals.

The home clubs at the MCG generally have their Social Club pre/after match functions on Level 2 in the Southern Stand saint66au, the Hassett room I think. I'd be surprised (and disappointed) if this wasn't the case for us.

No idea on Social Club seating though. It's probably something you should be raising with the club now SaintNick rather than a couple of weeks before the game.

Social Club Members

Just rang the club: Informed me that email will be sent this week and that 2 bays have been set aside . Tickets available under the usual format with Tiketek......

My reserved seats are on the wing at ES and the club have given us reserved seats on the wing/flank in the Southern Stand.

The last place I would want to be is behind the goals.

All of the home clubs at the MCG with the exception of Collingwood have their reserved seats/social club/functions in the Southern and Olympic Stands.

Thanks for the update Sunil. I was planning on calling today but hadn't got around to it due to work commitments. You have saved me the call. I will wait a few days for the email update.
Glad to hear there is at least some provision made for social club seeing it is our home game.
