[Albion] Ajax - ticketing process, tiers and all that jazz

[Dirty Dave]

anyone know how intrusive the perspex screen frame is?

I'm in row 2. Hopefully it's only a minor obstruction if sitting down and it won't be a problem when standing

Think for us tier2 people the random slot allocated in the queue is going to be key. If you’re not one of the first in the site at 9am then there’s no chance.

Indeed, my working theory on this one is that this is a club very used to football tourists, indeed they seem to cater to them in a number of ways. The home address I've registered with Ajax is in Bristol, so if push comes to shove I'll claim to be a neutral just there to take in a game.

I reckon you'll be fine. Ajax, a big German game and a return to Barca are / were all on my to do list for football abroad. I'm absolutely stunned I'm getting to do it in the away end with Brighton. Our profile and reputation for good football is just high enough now that there'll be plenty of actual tourists there. Expecting a few Japanese in the home end for sure.

I knew that the middle block would be popular but was a little surprised that 415 seemed to be more popular than 417 being as it is further from the pitch.

The way it was explained to me is that 415 is usually a Home fan block and therefore doesn't have a Perspex screen in front of it. That's why we went for 415.

Saw this when trying to find about the perspex screen (have bought in row 11). The post is 5 years old but they sound like they're a few years ahead of us in driving out touts, unless they've given up alongside their team

they are a lot strict than us! Lots of people share tickets

This is a view standing in row 9. I suspect its a bit dirtier now

 

[Horses Arse]

what did you find out about the perspex screen or more importantly the frame...

Nothing, but I'm easily side-tracked. No view photos for the away blcks, saw some from adjacent areas from gigs but not with the screen.

Gave up looking as I've bought in row 6 and can't change that now (unless I place my towell on a seat further up)

Bugger - oh well. There for the atmosphere and Bozza said its sit where you like! Doesn't look that steep from the picture

Now I like that response, so will look no further. I'm in 415 too, but by chance/luck

Already resigned to watching this one on a telly somewhere

 

[Horses Arse]

There’s a great big button on the app called ‘share ticket’ which to me implies I’m free to send it on to somebody else at will which would imply they are less bothered about this than in the past?

Are you really tempted to hit that button, like on the train/tube?

I'm in T1 but my son's in T2. I was toying with the idea of waiting until Monday and getting 2 together, but thought better of it so I'm in. There's about 430 left.

Me and my son's dream of a trip together ain't gonna happen now.

Those worrying / complaining about the perspex screen...

No offence, but you'll get very little sympathy for that minor inconvenience, from the hundreds / thousands of us who will almost certainly miss out altogether. In fact, I might just ban anyone who even mentions it...

Gone for a seat on the aisle which I always do to avoid the 'thats my seat nonsense, can just hover on the end.

It will be fine. The steeper seats are at the back of the stand. Understand its 70 steps from stair well to the back

 

[Wozza]

Bozza said its sit where you like!

Getting this printed on a 'Albion Euro tour' T-shirt.

Let me know if interested.
