RiG Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 Looking forward to this one. Hopefully we see Mckay and Jamieson get some game time here. Maybe the likes of MacDonald as well to get them fit and chapping on the door of the first team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScarf Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 This is giving me Cove flashbacks. At least I'll be highly intoxicated this time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may ask your name but if you use a pseudonym and ring from a public phone I would think you will be untraceable! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A phone call to the Elgin club proved useless as they only directed me towards the fanbase site. Probably saves employee wages at the club but then again there will be a hefty fee for the website. A bit mickey mouse which detaches fans from the club. The difference being that when I go down to the Caley shop for cup tickets I sometimes make a merchandise purchase which all goes to help. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cityloon Posted October 7, 2021 Author Share Posted October 7, 2021 not sure what the problem is with ordering tickets online or through the app all it needs is your email so you can login and your card number for purchasing the tickets or tickets then you can delete the fanbase account after its not much of a hassle unless your afraid of privacy non stop in your life or your some sort of spy fae russia 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melanius Mullarkey Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 Sounds like some people have some internet history they wish to hide. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiG Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 I just bought my ticket. Had to give Elgin City access to my bank account, my PIN number and the answers to my bank security questions which seemed a little odd but some guy who said he used to be a Nigerian prince told me he would take care of things. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's true of many, take for example someone who might trawl nightclub pictures for prurient satisfaction.

In retrospect, I can see the benefit of a robust ticketing infrastructure. Just imagine the embarrassment should a game be oversubscribed due to an oversight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScarf Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 I can see people's point, given there will be less than 1000 at the game, but it's 2021, you buy tickets online for everything nowadays. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's very true and a fact of life, the problem is the intrusion that follows when you divulge personal details to a site you hardly use, I ordered a couple of Relays from RS Components and now the company is appearing with adverts on a paper I read daily, and that never happened before, from me providing my bank details and e-mail address RS have, by using monitoring software, viewed every file I have accessed, every website I've browsed and every e-mail I've sent. So I understand people's reluctance to giving out personal details in a one off situation, information is valuable and can and is sold on. And it is not illegal for companies to operate in this manner without consent if they have a valid reason in promoting their company, it is known as 'lawful basis'. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SandyCromarty Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 Is there a stadium bar accessible to away fans without having to go down the hospitality route? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cityloon Posted October 8, 2021 Author Share Posted October 8, 2021 i think they put the sale of paper tickets from the club due to peoples own concerns on passing details over online but i assume they'd prefer online tickets due to people coming and going inside the club building. Yes the social club bar will most probably be open as its open after the game aswell showing the scotland game 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
