I haven't.

Given that around 300 e-mails need to be sent, the club have not always been great with technology and some O's fans are even worse, it seems brave to leave it until the afternoon before the first game. Could get messy!

Not yet but will happen in time for the first home league game.

Ah yeah, forgot Saturday's away. How easy to get confused when you're not going to games.

Believe they did say they'll be sent out today though.

You don't think they write an individual email for each fan do you? They will have a system that does it.

I still suspect it will go terribly wrong just like most things involving the ticket office.

got mine at 13.56

Ditto

FFS Ling! (for spending all of Nigel's money on his mates, rather than letting Macklin have it for our new digital infrastructure)

First league game is not until 19th but first home game is this Tuesday v Plymouth in Carabao Cup - and that's the 'must win' if we're to play Spurs. First 2 home cup games have always been included with season tickets so access to streaming of Tuesday's game should be free. Posts so far don't lend confidence

Not sure if it includes cup tickets

Just got an email with it

Just got mine now but disappointed that it says "Please note this code WILL NOT give you access to any Sky Bet League Two AWAY MATCHES OR CUP TIES" yet previous season tickets did have the first two home cup games included. And the season ticket price this time was essentially the same as previously so this is a reduction in value. Not pleased

You must get the fancy tickets? I've never had a cup game included in the last ten years.

It's a Gallery (now Legends Lounge) ST

Don't ever remember any cup games being included with a ST.

Streaming wise I think the trophy games are included though.

Time will tell but I have, I think, now successfully registered via the code provided. Let’s see it it works Tuesday.

Mine has arrived now.

It won't work for Tuesday. At least the ST code won't

I do remember one Christmas (late 70’s, early 80’s) being given a whiskey miniature as I went through the turnstile with my ST.
Those were the days !

The feed from FGR was pretty good, but I think the camera we use now at home is far better

Request for help.

I was talking to my Dad earlier about this, as he had confirmation earlier in the week that his Season Card had been renewed. I told him that I understood he'd be able to watch the home games for free, but wasn't sure what hoops he'd have to jump through to do so. Can I assume from this thread that he's likely to have received another email today with a code?

Given that a) he's 91 and doesn't really do any sort in technology later than the VCR, b) Mum (81) can do a little bit more and has a laptop and an Android tablet, and c) I'm 500 miles away and can't do it for him, my request is this:

Can some kind soul please post here a set of simple steps that I can send on to Mum in order for her to set it up for him? Does she need a website link, or is it an app?

Any help very gratefully received.

Hey Spike, has your dad already got an account with the club (i.e did he order ST online)?

That'll be the first step, but i'm afraid I did that a while ago, so not sure of the process.

The mail I just received does have instructions, but I haven't checked through them yet to see how idiot-proof they are (if they aren't I will definitely stress test!).
