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

[Titanic]

Please Remind me what time does the first queue form ? 8.50?

It has been typically between 08:15 and 08:30 for the 09:00 kick offs.

The actual queue proper doesn't form until 9am, for all those who are in the "waiting room" at that time.

It doesn't matter when you enter the waiting room, your slot in the queue is randomly assigned (I know you know this @Titanic - just repeating it for those who don't!)

That is something new learned today.

So there's zero benefit from being there at 8:30 as opposed 8:55.

Actually quite a smart thing to do, that way everyone is equal

Although not if everyone logs in with multiple devices, which the ‘random’ queue position almost encourages, even if inadvertently

Quick question, my 17 year old niece would love to go but her father can't get the time off work. She is a season ticket holder but I am no longer a season ticket holder. I have offered to take her as a birthday gift from my wife and I, so on Thursday can she order a ticket for herself and me ( as a guest) although she will only be 17?

I don’t see why not. I assume there is no issue with her making the payment and that she has a debit (or credit) card to make it with.

It seems reasonably ‘smart’ in the sense that despite opening about 8 windows with tabs it only seemed to assign me 3 actual positions in the queue… not sure how. Naturally I just closed all the others with higher numbers.

How do you call the club and actually get through to someone? Thanks

Option 5. And wait. I got through in around 10 minutes yesterday.

I am ok....... as a very kind Albion fan reached out....... when my son returns from the park with his mum, his tears from this morning, (better get used to that supporting Albion), are about to become elation!

Great to hear.

 

[El Turi]

In 2019 we had around 6,500 tickets left when it went to the season ticket guest window so looks like it will sell out quicker this time.

Fantastic. I'd wait until you have them confirmed in your inbox before you tell him though!

 

[Sheebo]

do you know if they are on sale tomorrow or today?

Group 1 is tomorrow - group 2 is tomorrow from 2pm

I have a STH friend who can't go so hasn't bought his ticket. He's obviously entitled to guest tickets 2moro & I need 3. Can he just send all 3 to me, they'll al be in his name anyway so will that be ok?

 

[Sorrel]

Sorry for your plight, but from my email with the club, it is new A+ memberships bought on or after 17th March (ie just over two weeks ago) that are not eligible to buy semi-final tickets.

Yes, that's got me. I didn't have membership for two years (I didn't go to any matches for two years, either) until mid March, but just the wrong side of the cut-off date, so no option to buy.

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

When I looked at it on the website a few days ago it said the memberships would be active this season to be recipients of ST Sharing (which is usually immediate anyway) but didn’t say anything about ticket purchase other than the usual 14 day thing.

Just signed up my youngest (not for Wembley obviously) as expected a few years for a ST now and it made it explicitly clear that for 22/23 benefits it only covers home games for sharing, I expect this has since been added after the mixed messaging earlier

Looks like about 3k sold today which I must admit was lower than I thought I expected the Mitoma+ members to mop up pretty much all the 5.8k tickets left today.

Perhaps that's because MyAlbion+ members who were told they could buy tickets today were stopped by the web site.

Depends if those numbers were in the original splits as I would of expected the three +members groups to have been similar numbers

Sorry for being a numbnut but what are the upcoming windows? I think we’re down to guest tickets windows 1-3 for STH and MA+ members concurrently, is that right and if so what times are the windows scheduled for and is it one per fan number again? We need three tickets :-(

STH guest windows below - two tickets per STH...
