[Albion] Family Standers – quick query

I thought match price at the moment was the same as STH price ? When Covid is over there should be no more requirements for photo ID.

I thought so too. I can’t see 30,000 ID checks being undertaken when we’re back to normal.

It is for those buying through the tier system but if you buy on the ticket exchange it is full price and, I think, all adult tickets.

It is the price of success. Some very disappointing scenarios for families over time, but without these rules many s/t’s would simply move within families and between mates. New fans or the previously only casually interested would get a regular seat at s/t prices from a connection, at the expense of people patiently waiting on the list.

With a capacity of just (soon to be) 32,000 and PL football, one way or another there’ll always be a whole load of dissatisfied punters.

On a related note, which has been mentioned by other posters, we all know people who share season tickets for various reasons, or occasionally borrow them, and very often that's because people work awkward shifts or have family reasons for not attending every game. If we're getting towards a time when ID is checked, the club is going to be waving goodbye to some very loyal and long-standing supporters. There aren't enough general sale tickets available to accommodate all these people, unless my maths is wrong. Maybe it is.

If the named season ticket holder can’t attend then the ticket should be put on ticket exchange, then the person who normally shares can purchase the seat.

If everyone did this then far more tickets would become available.
