    [Albion] Guest tickets for semi final

    Seriously, stop worrying. That’s the way it works for everyone..

    [Football] England v Brazil Wembley 7.45KO

    Aren’t exorbitant wages largely funded by commercial deals (tv, sponsorship etc) rather than gate receipts? I recall the latter making up a very small percentage of wages. Plus, do players get paid at all for international appearances? I’d hazard a guess that Wembley ran last night’s event at...

    [Albion] FA Cup Semi-Final v Man Utd - 4:30pm, Sunday 23rd April

    If it’s happened for some big league aways I stand corrected, I thought the only previous time was as you say 2019 (when it went to purchase history anyway).

    [Albion] FA Cup Semi-Final v Man Utd - 4:30pm, Sunday 23rd April

    I was referring to the big away games, should have clarified.

    [Albion] FA Cup Semi-Final v Man Utd - 4:30pm, Sunday 23rd April

    I know it is a fact. One example of many - a STH I know who goes alone to the Amex got guest tickets for his disinterested daughter and staunch United fan son in law. Most aren’t as principled with this sort of thing as a lot of diehards on here would wish them to be, unfortunately.

    [Albion] FA Cup Semi-Final v Man Utd - 4:30pm, Sunday 23rd April

    I doubt it, as I presume the decision was made specifically to drive behavioural change, I.e. memberships for the previously unconverted from next season onwards. Which makes sense from a commercial perspective.

    [Albion] FA Cup Semi-Final v Man Utd - 4:30pm, Sunday 23rd April

    I’m not arguing about the benefits of membership though. I agree I’ve been fully aware of the benefits, including priority for certain tickets. The gripe is directed at all the non-fan day trippers and, most annoyingly, United fans. If the ability to buy guest tickets for big games was listed as...

    Agree, I did say they got it mostly right.

    [Albion] FA Cup Semi-Final v Man Utd - 4:30pm, Sunday 23rd April

    Mmm, not quite. I had always assumed I wouldn’t need to buy a membership for ‘enhanced priority’ over all the United fans who I know are now in our end. Obviously would fully expect to be bottom of the pile measured against every other category of attendee, but this part was wrong (and I think...

    Yeah, a legend on there sorted me 🎉

    [Albion] FA Cup Semi-Final v Man Utd - 4:30pm, Sunday 23rd April

    The affordability point is bollocks, if you can pay for a Wembley trip then a £30 membership is doable. The main gripe imo are the many non-Brighton fans who have been able to skip the queue ahead of genuine fans with genuine reasons for not having a membership. I know about 15 United fans in...

    [Albion] FA Cup Semi-Final v Man Utd - 4:30pm, Sunday 23rd April

    I’m an ex-STH, probably been to over 250 games home and away from league 2 and up, but moved away from Brighton 9 years ago. Since then I’ve never needed a membership to attend the 6/7 games I now get to per season (like Leeds a few wks ago), same position as all my friends who left home...so...

    [Albion] FA Cup Semi-Final v Man Utd - 4:30pm, Sunday 23rd April

    What commitment have Pete and Sally, friends of a STH who don’t watch us but fancy the day out, given? The club got it mostly right but allowing Pete and Sally in ahead of loads with significant purchase history/points but no membership was poor.

    Two tickets secured thanks to @PILTDOWN MAN !

    [Albion] AFC Bournemouth vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    Fortunate. Our defence really needs to brush up, particularly ahead of the 23rd.

    [Albion] FA Cup Semi-Final v Man Utd - 4:30pm, Sunday 23rd April

    I had this recently for Leeds away - purchase history window open, button greyed. Phoned the club and they manually altered so do keep trying.

    [Albion] FA Cup Semi-Final v Man Utd - 4:30pm, Sunday 23rd April

    Members yes, purchase history no. We do purchase history for many home games too (and did so for the last semi. It makes no sense to allow STH guests who’ve never seen a game in their lives ahead of non-member purchase history (in my case, ex-STH for a dozen years etc.). C’est la vie.

    [Albion] FA Cup Semi-Final v Man Utd - 4:30pm, Sunday 23rd April

    Those who have purchase history and have recently even bought a membership being behind random mates of STH is ludicrous tbf; I’m also having to be reliant on a good samaritan!

    [Albion] STH Guest tickets - help out deserving NSC friends

    It’s very annoying. I probably have over 250 attended games linked to my FAN number and can’t get a ticket ahead of dear old Mavis. I know I could have bought a membership but so could she! Edit: however a kind poster on here has offered to help so 🤞

    [Albion] STH Guest tickets - help out deserving NSC friends

    Nope, no window announced. I’m pretty much the same boat as you, ex STH and have been to a few home and away this season but not a member.
