I can't understand why all these tickets haven't been snapped up we took 5k to westham and Leyton is only up teh road from there - Yet again Albion fans proving there unworthiness.

An entirely fair and reasonable approach, in my opinion.

About time AMS had its come uppence
 




By offering season ticket holders first go at these tickets, the Club has been testing just how important it is to give STHs priority for away games.

I think it's fairly clear that the answer is ... not important at all.

They should take the Mobile Shop to Griffin Park on the Saturday before the Orient game and sell Orient tickets to personal callers only.

It's not important until you don't get a ticket for a game like Spurs or West Ham.

But the point is- if season tickets holders can't be bothered for Orient then Why should they get priority just because it's seen as a big tie.

Yes a very mild opinion until the West Ham game.

Common Ed get real

The point is that tickets for big away games should go to ALL supporters who follow the Club with a passion - home and away - not just those who claim some sort of superiority by virtue of being able to stump up cash before the season starts.

That includes pretty much anyone who buys an Orient ticket AFTER they went on general sale. I hope the Club keeps a record of who they are and that their loyalty is rewarded next time the opportunity crops up.

The club have admitted that there are over 20,000 AMS members. How many of them can be bothered to watch the Albion regularly? 2%?

Agreed of course. But the club don't appear to keep a record.


But whenever there is a big interest away game the 20,000 ams who rarely watch the team have as much priority as the 1200 diehard sth and ams who follow the club all over the country.

FFS, that isn't the point at all. The point is that in situations where demand for season tickets is EASILY outstripped by supply (such as now), those season ticket holders should be treated as the valuable stakeholders that they are. i.e. ahead of anyone else (like me) who fancies being a glory boy once that season.

Pretty much every other club in the country gives STH priority on away tickets first and ther eis never complaints. I have mates who are fans of other clubs who can't beleive that seaosn ticket holders don't get priority at Brighton.
