My daughter's boyfriend and his mates benefitted from @Bozza 's tip on the "best available" this morning. Selecting three tickets otherwise would have taken too long I think.

What is Bozzas ‘best available’ tip??
When you go into to “Buy”, instead of selecting individual seats you choose the “Best Available” option. You won’t know where you will sit until you go through to pay. But in very competitive cases like these recently, when it’s more important you’re “there” rather than “where” that few seconds saved getting them in your basket can make the difference between success and failure. Worked for me this morning, and some others by the look of things.

I already have tickets for Forest, and sorry to be a bit thick, but just to understand this tip for future as I missed it...... I've just looked at Everton tickets option as still available, on mobile but used desktop view too.

Away tickets - Everton - Buy ..... it then presents 2 available sections, couldn't see best available yet, so clicked one, then see individual seats or best available, so click best available, buy button is still greyed out, have to first select whether Adult, youth etc, then buy?

Is that it?

Yes that’s correct. Select multiples (2,3 etc) to get them together. I just did a test on Everton and it gave me row N and in the middle. Look to be a good option and I certainly would have been happy with them. It might not be exactly what you want but at least you have tickets together. In games like Everton where there’s been plenty of tickets for some time then you can take your time and chose how far back or high you want to be. Or closer / further from the home fans. The other tip was to select the section with the most available and then “Best Available”.

Do they never use points to create tiers for MyAlbion+ members?

As a long term season ticket holder it's all new to me but I bought my 8 year old son a ticket yesterday morning - his first away game (signed him up as a member last month). Seems a bit unfair that he had the same on-sale time as non-STH's who've been to loads of away games?

They do Tier for the European away games (108+ points get priority) but for domestic it just goes Albion+ as one generic band.

What official channels? You’ve offered to buy a match ticket direct from a current match ticket holder, how are you going to make that transaction work, within current ticketing controls?!

So if you can't make the game for some reason the seat goes empty?
