Going all NFC would stop all this shite but people don't want to

A few reasons why people why people don't want NFC...but yes, you're right, it would put an end to it.

The main one being the paranoia of my phone running out of battery.

First Class and Second Class postage with Royal Mail is a thing of the past..standard letter post can take days to arrive depending on how well staffed your local Sorting office is..

IF I get sorted in the 6+ sale, there's not a chance it will get to me in time.

The sale is 6 days before the match although I assume your post is shite too?

Yup.. No longer a plane that delivers here so reliant on the boat.. even slower than previous!

Still waiting on one from the 7+ sale.
Will be a pain if it doesn’t turn up as lead booker not due in London until two hours before kick-off.
Then has to get to ground. Hope trains aren’t late!

Managed to bag a couple in the 6 sale there, didnt check what was available in total but P5 an P6 were lit up, selected 2 and choose seats for me

Must have been a few

Gah. There was abut 20 available left over from the 7+ sale before they put the queue back on.

I didn't manage to get anything. Saw a few bounce back at about 207 and also 225 but no good.
Shame.

Really that few? Got a good queue time on 1 tab rest were a few mins, mate got one about half 2 refreshing but then realised the card didnt qualify

[ABJ]

Got a few more earlier between myself and a mate, some very happy people as loads of us are going now

Just need them to turn up in the post now.. still waiting on 4 from first sale 

[30fiver]

Still no sign of 1st sale tickets 🙃

[apassant77]

Not ticket related but any suggestions for a decent boozer before the game.

Apparently there’s a pub called the kings arms on new kings road in Fulham, which is where LFC London branch meet to watch matches, my first time going to the cottage, so not sure where’s best, but I think I’ll start here

[Benimar Col]

Still no sign of 1st sale tickets 🙃

spoke to them this morning re second sale on 18.1.24,, they confirmed posted out 19.1.24  but still no tickets have arrived

[Hij]

Will be heading down on the day to stand outside the away end, so if you know of anyone dropping out last minute, please bear me in mind. Done 8 of the last 10 in the league cup, but the guy who used to sort me out spares has elected to start going now which is his right and I knew that this might happen when I started buying from him initially. I don't really attempt league aways so much anymore as competition is so fierce and I literally don't know where to start, but I do always try and make the domestic cup ones where I can and would love to make this one and keep up my decent run in the comp

[LFC_R_BOSS]

Anyone had tickets from Thursday?

[30fiver]

1st sale tickets came this morning, in a very battered and damaged envelope along with an apology notice from Royal Fail
Barcodes still intact though...

Just waiting on 2 from the 6 credit sale, for a house notorious for getting post 3-4 times a month due to location its the first place Royal Fail cut when short on posties or it gets icy

[elmothered1]

Anyone had tickets from Thursday?

Yeah ours came today

[Benimar Col]

Anyone had tickets from Thursday?

still no, joke to be honest this, how easy it it to employ some people to put tickets in an envelope and get them in the post Thursday tea time

[30fiver]

Who's to say its not Royal Fail's fault they haven't been delivered though? took 12 days for first sale ones to come for our lot to reach Blackpool, and the other lad from Wigan gets 3-4 post trips a month if that just because he lives at the bottom of a massive hill.

He's had to contact his postie who he's become mates with due to the ticket issues, who's going to dig through at the sorting office tomorrow morning to see if they've even made it to the local one

Thursday ones should have been collection at the ground only, or sent special delivery

[Thepooloflife]

It is a joke - but, if not arrived tomorrow, I'd get on to chat to see if dupes can be collected down there.

quick to jump ehh !!!   

the idiots only posted purchases from the 18.1.24 today

wouldn’t surprise me if LFC wanted to save the postage,  send them recorded, I would  gladly pay for it

Unreal that, the sale was last Thursday yet they send the tickets out on the following Monday, 2 days before the match. Can’t wait to hear the usual suspects back them to the hilt as to the reasons why. No doubt it will be Fulham’s fault 

[nfletcher23]

Any decent pubs near ground for away fans?

[30fiver]

Website has the wrong info on it, clearly given someone above received them yesterday from Thursdays sale...

Also someone above saying live chat told them they got sent out Friday, which seems much more realistic

Shouldn't have post as an option for these late sales...

Collection only at away ground, with ID - IMO

[Jm55]

Is there a reason why the TO won’t give the option for recorded/special delivery with an extra charge?

Probably more time/hassle on their side

For cup finals when its an option, they use a third party they don't do it themselves

I always wonder why they don’t have a contract with either Royal Mail/any other courier to send away tickets out in a more risk free and efficient way than standard post.

I’m sure if they had such a deal the cost the company in question would charge them per envelope sent would be less than the price the club could charge on the ticketing page.

But I’m sure everyone would be happy enough paying it if it meant virtually ruling out tickets going astray which happens so often.

Club makes a few more quid, saves the hassle of organising duplicates for missing tickets, fans get tickets in plenty of time without having to wonder if they’ll actually turn up at all! Win-win

It’s my first time at Fulham and looking for a bit of travel advice, in regard to transport after the game.

I’ve got a bus to catch at Victoria Coach Station at midnight. What is Fulham like for getting away after the match? Will Putney Bridge tube station be rammed? If I walk 15-20 mins to catch a bus to Victoria might that be the safer option?

Thanks.

Putney Bridge tube station is going to be closed after the match

Lfc help says Putney Bridge is being closed after the game tonight. They're recommending you walk to Hammersmith, but you could also use Parsons Green or Fulham Broadway I guess. Never usually much of a wait at Putney Bridge I found in the past if that helps. Should be similar at the others.

It would make sense to wouldn't it

I won't jump to conclusions etc as to why not, but a consideration is that the current process 'forces' a few people to collect each game which whilst annoying for fans, probably allows the club to catch the odd person out passing on away tickets to put them through the sanctions process etc. As lets be honest, that's the main reason people worry about things not turning up is that they can't collect duplicates as the holder aint going etc
