[Albion] Europa League Round of 16 tickets on sale

[studio150]

Game is 2 weeks after my 65th birthday, will be my first purchase of an OAP football ticket!

Can only assume you have not followed the Albion away in Wales in the last 5 years, given OAP status is 60 not 65 there.

I was really chuffed to get an OAP ticket when we last played Cardiff in the League Cup.

Still from March onwards more beer money for you at each game.

anyone know how ko times get arranged, surely home club decides? could be a bit rushed for workers and school kids at 5.45pm ko if you subsequently cant go can they go on ticket exchange? assume club will go with digital and paper printed option as per previous Euro games?

Think you will find it's TV companies.

You mean the chat bot? On mobile it is at bottom left of the ticketing site pages. The icon looks like this and that came up when I was on the away tickets page.

That's a bit disappointing. I wanted to see a full on Albion ROBOT.

 

[Mad as my Mother]

We are Brighton and Hove Albion, we are in the league of 16 in a major European cup.
I find it impossible to moan about anything as I must be dreaming anyway.

As someone else has said, the game is almost certain to be on that date, but might not be, if we draw Benfica and Sporting are also through to the next round.

for anyone else wants to know i have spoken to the club and found that print at home option for tickets will be available and I'm told the ko time will be known on 24th Feb (After the draw is completed) KO time decided by UEFA.

And this means people can buy them for each other as Christmas presents!

Can you buy me one Hansy ?

Why is there no U18 prices for zone E? Not sure I can justify paying £112 for me and my 12 year old to watch 1 game.

All tickets in that Zone, Season tickets or one off tickets for juniors or over 65s are all the same price .

 

[Diablo]

No over 65 band either

It's almost 99.9% certain to go ahead on the scheduled date even if we draw either Braga or Benfica. Our away game could be brought forward by a day tho.

In the 2021-22 Europa League both Sevilla and Real Betis won their play-off round matches and were in the last 16. Both were home in the first leg, Betis played their game against West Ham a day earlier. Also in that last 16 round Porto and Braga were due to be at home on the same day (there is about 35 miles between the two cities) but Porto played their home leg a day early as well. Normally this wouldn't be allowed as it clashes with Champions League games but UEFA make exceptions when things like this happen so the advantages of being seeded will not be lost.

 

[Insel affe]

No over 65 band either

That is simply a lie...

 

[Biscuit Barrel]

No they are not. I have a season ticket in zone E and my 12 year old daughter also has a season ticket. Her's costs around half the price of mine.

 

[dylan_bha]

So an under 18 will have to pay full adult price to sit in their own season ticket seat in the family area! (E1A) Or risk a bun fight to sit somewhere else for cheaper, that is really not fair on kids!!

Forget that I have completely misread the pricing

Is that the Queen on the left?

 

[Diablo]

No they are not. I have a season ticket in zone E and my 12 year old daughter also has a season ticket. Her's costs around half the price of mine.

99% sure you are wrong because Zone E for European games is what normally is west lower middle where there are no reductions. Your season tickets are East stand where young and old do indeed get reduced prices.

The issue would be Sporting and Benfica both in the next round, not Braga which is a long way away. If both teams were through there is a good chance they would swop home and away legs of one of the teams, like they did when Arsenal and Chelsea were set to play a Europa League game at home on the same day in 2019, and also happened to the two Manchester clubs in the champions league one year.

This will not be finalised until we know who is playing who (23.02.24), but ALMOST certainly it will be 8pm.

The English teams only very rarely get 5.45pm kick offs, historically. Given the time differences, it makes far more sense for the clubs in central / Eastern Europe to take the bulk of those kick off slots. Istanbul is 3 hours ahead of us. Baku is 4 hours. Give Qarabag the later kick off slot, and the game is finishing at 2AM local time!

West Ham, Liverpool and Brighton are all scheduled to play the home game on same day. Every chance the tv companies will move one of them so they can show two games live rather than just the one
