As an off-ticket-topic aside I’m currently enjoying researching Operation Biting - a good old derring-do operation from early 1942 when British paratroopers supported by the RAF and Navy dropped into a snowy Normandy to dismantle a piece of German radar equipment with the idea of bringing it back to Blighty to see how it was built and worked. Interesting to see that just one week after the (successful) raid two of the lads who were manning Brenn guns on the landing craft sent in to pick up the paratroopers from the beach to protect them from enemy fire played for Brighton v Millwall.

It’s not like I talk about it a lot but my phone always autocorrects to tumeric.

[Link] not that I've heard it

It's turmeric.

Tumeric is very good for you tbf - and further on the ticketing team I know they work long and non-standard hours at times so wouldn’t surprise me if they’re still at it. Certainly don’t expect any comms from the DTB for obvious reasons. Could expect a brief status update from the club given the late hour of the day and the shortening number of hours to kick off.

There seems to be a lot of smoke coming from the direction of Morden/South Wimbledon...

I'm guessing the ticketing team are doing their best with their hands tied over the whole situation. I'm with Trig in that I've never had a bad experience when dealing direct with and they have always sorted out any individual problems that I've had over the years. The lack of club communication about the whole situation is the most concerning thing here

Well it’s past 5pm now, so I’d imagine ticket offices at Fulham and Wimbledon are both closed - good luck getting the right ticket tomorrow everyone….

RIP Tim Curry of Rocky Horror and Home Alone 2 fame.

Just as developers never deploy new code on a Friday I fear for the ticket team if they send out a mass ticket-link email now and then head off to enjoy their evenings.

Fulham is the go-to club to suggest when people are told that they’re not allowed to be Wimbledon fans anymore by snowflakes and the easily-offended you-know-who’s.

Didn’t Charlie Koppel say we could all go and support Fulham?

“I’d rather have QR than NFC….”

Your

Are there any songs we can sing tomorrow evening to convey our annoyance?

Has anyone received anything yet? I haven't yet. And isn't the office now closed?

Really hope they just say sit/stand where you like. Far easier than trying to find your seat and dealing with anyone who might already be sat in it by mistake. Far easier for groups of friends/family to sit together and generate a better atmosphere accordingly. Those who really care where they sit eg the youngsters who like being up at the back can grab their places early and those who are more flexible can arrive later and pick up the spare spaces.

DO - we shall see…

A4e - I would imagine Fulham have sent 5,000 digital tix and a spreadsheet showing section, row and seat number for each. Afcw will need to extract a spreadsheet of all tix booked, showing name, email addy, section, row and seat number. A vlookup between the two should then enable each digitix to be emailed to correct purchaser.

Yeah who knows. The ticket team have helped me out numerous times so they have my trust in that they’re probably not the ones delaying things.

Thanks Trigg - weird that they haven’t yet done it, assuming that each ticket booking is associated with one specific email address, in which case they simply click “send all” or something…. Unless of course they are going to send each one individually and type in the email addresses manually……

Thanks Pete I enjoyed that

A4e the club has confirmed it has received the digital links from FFC and will be emailing them to fans today.

There is a snopes on pete's posting but much of it is authentic. Nearly everyone copied our track gauge but went for bigger loading gauges, i.e. how long, wide and tall train carriages can be. So they get more comfortable journeys and a much greater possibility of double decker trains which are effectively impossible in the UK.

After Pete's post, feel both more informed and amused. Thanks for that, Pete.
