It depends really. It was quite easy to sort out a card for the West Ham match and then I would imagine it is easy to top up (not that I needed to). Once you get over the initial hurdle, then it will be much easier to get tickets. Your card will simply be credited.

I am positive that it won't deter people from going along to a brand new stadium that we have been fighting for. Whether or not, there is a charge for the card is another matter.

I can honestly see no reason or need for a charge if the card is too be used.

I put this Scenario to you -

A team of footballers has a game called off and decide last minute to go to the Brighton game and only half have cards.
Under the card system 5 people wouldnt be able to go and the club loses out on money.

Probably too simplistic, but...... (Falmer) for can't make your mind up to the last minute types.

How about a system where you could send credit card number over the phone or net up to thirty minutes before game. You then receive a 'code number' for number of tickets purchased ie you and your mates. Get to the ground. Code number is checked and you make your way to seats.


example code: 12fgds- A06-0206

12fgds - cryptic code

A06 - Block A Row 6

0206 - Seats 02-06

Should I patent this ??? :D

There is a clause in the planning permission preventing tickets from being sold at the stadium, isn't there?

Think all games are all ticket, mind you a good idea given that cack handed attempt at Withdean with the Youth Cup game and paying on the day.

I don't think anyone expected such a turnout! Far too many Chelsea shirts floating about though. It was a very surreal experience and I ended up running across the track to the South Stand to avoid the big crush. :lol:

Not really the best example is it?

Did you know that many would turn up?

OK then name another example of pay on the day at Withdean then ?

And why ask me whether I should know how many turned up that is for the club to plan.

There isnt, it doesnt mean its a good example does it?

Because you seemed to know that 3000 people where going to turn up.

I have never implied I knew that but you now seem to infer I should be responsible in planning how many people turn up for a game to pay on the night which I am not.

Believe it or not the club pay several people a princely sum to organise commercial matters such as this.

a- bloody slow
b -bloody insecure
c - propably far too sofisticatedfor this club to deal with

Believe it or not 3000 is a hell of a lot of people to watch a youth match.

Agreed and the club should have had a contingency plan in place for this but didn't (apart from some yellow buckets to collect cash after letting everyone in free).

I got mine today while I was getting my Bristol Rovers tickets just incase there was a rush.

On a slightly different note, I was a pit peeved at having to pay ANOTHER tenner to re-register for the away membership. They couldn't find my details apparently.

How many games until I get out of the "white"?

Just out of interest, my mate who regularly watches Brighton and buys tickets in the shop on the day of the game has never been asked any personal details, which probably means hes not on the database. Does that mean he wont be allowed to watch the Leeds match as they dont have his details yet he watches at least 12 home games a season easily enough ? ???

Does he wear his replica shirt by any chance when he gets a ticket from the club shop ?
