I wonder if buying $10 tickets and taking free ones like this would work out cheaper than a season ticket? I reckon it would, especially if you can't make the home games in Auckland and Christchurch. Cool that the club wants to bolster crowds but it seems a bit wrong that a season ticket holder ends up paying more per game than someone who gets a ticket week by week.

The answer would be to make season tickets cheaper I reckon

I agree, I mean it probably wont stop me buying a season ticket again next year, but you would expect that the upfront season ticket purchasers would get the best deal, but Im not sure thats the case.

Casuals don't get a fridge magnet though bro. It really ties the room together.

True, but this year's fridge magnet didn't have the away games on it. Standards are slipping

People like Coldplay and voted for the Nazis. You can't trust people.

Yeah, they made a mistake (or Ticketek did) and the offer was actually live from when they announced it. So if people realised they were getting the free tickets yesterday. Limit was 10 so imagine since they were free, some people just took all 10 and then worried about finding someone to give them too.

EDIT: Looks like maybe more are available again?!?

And you did not need Siggy if you paid booking service fee. Ticketec should stump up with another allocation!

Good old Ticketek, never missing a chance to rip off the punter.

"There’s no booking fee either as long as fans choose an ezy-ticket and enter ‘Siggy’ in the Password Entry box."

There's no booking fee but there is a service fee for the privilege of printing off the tickets

No, you need to select a different option, there is a special option to select for $0 fee as well from the drop down options. It was the last option in the list.

Yea that was a right mess for me... I tried again and managed to get tickets, but then something broke while I was entering account details and the process stopped... no tickets were forthcoming... in the meantime Yakcall PM'd me and hooked me up.

Did you get one in the end? As others say, login to your ticketek account first and then keep trying. They were still avaliable before.

That would be Conga Line. Congo is one of a couple of countries in Central Africa. Sorry, wouldn't normally bother but I'm bored.

Apparently I'm apathetic, but I couldn't care less.

Maybe a glitch is setting a new load of tickets every hour.  Never know, we could have 25,000 people turn up with their free tickets and the last game will be pumping.

Couple tends to mean two. 

Ironically the country with Democratic in its name is not democratic, and the other one is. Usually the case though, same with North Korea which is the Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea whereas South Korea is just called the Republic of Korea/

so its conga with an 'a'. nice one. I also was a bit board and starting to sing the conga line song in my head because i didn't know if it was spelled with an 'a' or an 'o'. but then i couldn't remember the conga line song so i just kinda made up my own little ditty about being in a line and conga'ing. and went with the 'o' because it seemed to sound better in my song...

thanks for clearing that up.

Actually, I did say that! :p

The structure of the sentence led me to believe you were naming Congo as one specific country among other countries (not named Congo) in Central Africa. 

Technically Congo is not a country at all. 

Anyhow, I digress ;)
