Tickets, Gin and shirt sales have sky rocketed while operating under the previous regimes internal processes. Also ticketmaster are having issues nationally with football sales. For me any responsibility for this lies squarely with the commercial manager. These are the bread and butter tasks for any commercial manager.
Yet almost every thread I read here the same names pop up criticising the higher level directors and FR for any potential issue at the club and making spurious allegations based on pure speculation.
I’ve seen a tremendous number of posts on Twitter, Facebook and here in the last month openly criticising the ticketing processes/service at the club. When I opened the match day programme the name I saw allocated to
“Head of Ticketing” was Dan Sear.
Now, I don’t place any blame myself on Dan or the club at this point due to the unprecedented demand and the known issues with ticketmaster coupled with the very short window imposed due to Covid seating allocation restrictions in Wales.
But there is only so much criticism a man with the title “Head of Ticketing” can take before they say enough is enough. Regardless of whether the responsibility lies with him.
Now when your giving your 2 cents worth on social media and speculating about what’s going on behind the scenes just remember these are real people who might be under serious pressure trying to deliver our tickets, shirts or bottles of gin.

A strange post.
I don’t think anyone is criticising Dan Sear.
They are understandably questioning the commercial running of the club, which by anyone’s independent analysis, has not been good in recent months.
