Tickets for Bramall Lane Collection Only

I’m a little perplexed why tickets for Bramall Lane are collection only? Have we run out of stamps? 
 

Odd? Or have they realised that Royal Mail are utterly useless?

Got mine today

ive had 2 lots of tickets what never turned up this season , had to get duplicates . post can take days and sometimes never turn up , also had other mail go missing .

Don't know why they're not e-tickets, their home tickets are.

Lot of the allocation being creamed off to staff etc as well - 800 TPP means only being in the third phase for a 2,300 allocation there so not sure to get a ticket, but is second phase and a guaranteed ticket for 1,600 at Norwich. I know Norwich is unlikely to even sell out, but there are always weird anomalies like that for the higher demand games.

Same. For the blackburn game they turned up on match day when I was already in Manchester. The posty actually said to the missis ‘ he shouldve rang us to post it as its been sat at the sorting office for 4 days’ I kid you not.

mine never even turned up had to pick duplicates up at blackburn , what a waste of my time , pished it down all day got soaked then game got abandoned then got soaked again not bothered since whats the f point . 

I appreciate that the Royal Mail can have its off days, but I can’t see that this is the likely reason why its collection only. 
Not living in Sheffield, this causes an unnecessary challenge, especially as collection is after the Millwall home game.

Not to mention our Blackpool ticket saga from last season! That's why I just don't trust Royal Mail these days.  I'm still waiting for my Shrewsbury away tickets for January 2022 to arrive.

Don’t bother mate. We lose 1-0

Fortunately I didn't and opted for a refund rather than replacement and didn't go! 

Well into the 4th sales phase now and still over 100 tickets left.  This would normally have easily sold out in the third phase so a lot of people clearly can't be arsed this time and who can blame them.

It'll be the first time in years I've not gone, feck paying £44 a ticket for that, but we've bought £29 tickets for someone else who are concessions so at least I was pleased to cost United £30 which is petty but I don't care.

Online booking fee. It'd cost me more than a quid, plus time off work, to buy in person.
