    Thank you Glenn for sorting out the information on the Club website to do with buying tickets and how to go
    about doing so.
    I have just been on the site and can assure you that all the amendments you have clearly made to the content and signposting will certainly help new and returning customers to get a ticket into the ground.
    It was my intention to remind the club that it needs to promote all and every home game as it approaches and ensure that all and any new customer can easily see how to go about the process of buying a ticket.
    Thanks again
    Brackenrigg

    Hi,

    The thanks for this go Isabel Pitts in the PR & media team. She made the updates after I highlighted the earlier forum post. Isabel and the rest of the team do a brilliant job quietly in the background.

    Excellent Glenn. Keep up the good work.

    Maybe Isabel or members of the team should join on here.

    Nice work Isabel and the team.

    Hi Glen - how much do you want to release the ‘real’ Fordy? We’ve had a whip round and managed to raise 23p, 4 buttons and a few Smarties (although I’ve already eaten them).

    Nothing on there at all about how someone can actually get some money to buy the tickets with.

    They just don't care about the fans or getting people into the ground to spur the team on.

    Glen when you get a minute do a collection option on the club shop website so we can pop in and pick our purchased items up rather than paying them ridiculous postage costs ;):thumbup:

    I called yesterday as I’m taking my son to only his 2nd game of the season and they where very friendly and helpful for once on the phone. My previous dealings with the ticket office at VP have always been a nightmare either on the phone or in person

    I think a suggestion thread would be good for posting genuine ways the club could look at improving . Not a thread to slate the club more of seeing things as fans that they don’t see . Glen and roger obviously monitor the board and could keep a eye on it and any decent ideas could be looked at . Even just small ideas like the click and collect is easy to do and will bring extra revenue into the club . Sometimes am put off buying a £10 training top with the 5/6£ postage . Now if I could collect in person I’d be spending money . Maybe worth asking them first if this was ok rather than the hassle of them just viewing the board as fans as they may wish to do. This is the main Bradford city fans forum and I bet there is some good ideas knocking about

    Hi,

    I've asked the question of the Dale Whiting who is the Shop Manager. It's a great idea if it can be implemented. It will be a matter of understanding the framework of the shopping site platform to see if that be achieved.

    One thing that pisses me off is when you buy tickets online and are charged a ‘web handling fee’ and extortionate postage.
    What exactly is the handling fee for? And a stamp costs 70p

    Can I ask about the cleaning situation at VP. Do we contract this out? Do we have somebody who checks the place out. If it is not up to standard, we need to think about using a different contractor.
