It still seems not to be working. I rang today as suggested and was told that it's not possible to book tickets in advance. Only pay at the gate.

I don't understand what point you're trying to make. You can pay at the gate for virtually all Stanley's matches, certainly for all league matches. With the apathy of the Accrington public as it is, what would be the point of Stanley spending its sparse resources on setting up an elaborate and unnecessary system for buying tickets in advance?

Surely the point is people may want to buy the 10 ticket deal the club advertised? pish the fans off more n less chance than ever of getting folk through the gates?

The ticket is not for me - it's for a friend who will be making his first visit. I could ask him to pay at the gate and then refund his money. Hardly friendly, methinks. In the past, I have bought tickets in advance for 3 or 4 family members and booked the seats next to my season ticket seat. They visit from North Yorkshire. If they happen to be delayed en route, it is (or was) good to know that at least the seats alongside mine were reserved for them.
Sorry - I didn't realise that taking a card number and issuing a ticket was an elaborate system.

Re: multi tickets and match prices
RR will reply to you e-mail later today.
We do have an elabotate ticketing system that sadly costs a fortune and an additional price per ticket for each one we sell. Then if the customer pays via card we pay a small commision to that system and have to wait for our money!!. And if posted out there's another few pence gone. Whilst we charge a "booking fee" we'd rather be "old fashioned"
We used the system for both the Everton and Portsmouth matches as there was demand from supporters of both clubs as well as Stanley fans.
Sadly there is less demand at present hence going back to cash on the turnstiles.
Appreciate people do have different requirements so will endeavour to find solutions, but given the changes we have had being the scenes we may get some things wrong

Re: multi tickets and match prices
I haven't been yet this season, is it £15 on the gate or an extra pound or two?
If I remember correctly last season, I saved a couple of quid buying in advance.

Re: multi tickets and match prices
it says in the observer page 2 thIs week. You can buy 10 tickets for £100. You must have to go in shop. They've missed an opportunity here. It' s not on website And should have been available since start of season. I reckon they could have shifted a good number with the right advertising e.g. website and put it on fixture boards that advertise forthcoming matches that are around Accrington. Let's forget the frustration and cheer the team to victory.

Re: multi tickets and match prices
Really thought the multi-ticket idea had been mentioned on numerous occasions.
I'm sure the good "Accywebbers" will dig in out and save me time.
We have multi-tickets pre-printed and ready to sell
