[Albion] Man City (h) ticket ballot

[Thunder Bolt]

I bought 5 tickets just now, in the Family Stand. We have three U10's in our group. However, the website wouldn't allow me to change the tickets to a child, despite advertising U10 ticket prices. I am now going to have to ask for a refund of the difference I guess

There wasn't an over65 option either. I will email the club later.


Does anyone know if the ticket includes local bus services? I doubt they will lay on a P&R for only 7K people.

I don’t know why people are worrying, if you’re organised you will get a ticket.

Dam I never knew it was so easy....

I have missed it somewhere, so can anyone tell me how many are in each priority group please? Is priority 3 in with a chance of tickets? Thanks

I would guess each group contains a quarter of how many season tickets have been sold. However don’t quote me as that maybe wrong but seems logical

Although not in the North Stand where there seems to be plenty of pairs available?

EDIT: this only seems to be the case in N1F?

Half of N1E and N1F and a few pairs in W3C and W3G that I also just spotted. Predominantly socially-distanced seats though.

Had exactly the same, had to pay full price even with +65 and U21 tickets, no other option than Adult. ??

When you get to the bit that says ‘adult’ just press and 65+, under 21 etc. comes up, with the lower prices. Unless you’re trying to buy, the central block in West stand.

Just logged onto ticket site, in advance of 2pm and priority 2, and had no queue.it so was straight in. Which indicates that most priority 1s have already logged in and got their tickets if they wanted to go.

I was on Live Chat with the club, and the problem is now fixed. She asked me to email the club as it will need manager approval to refund the difference. I guess we all need to do that

Got mine, just a couple of seats along from my S/T seat which wasn't available

I didn't see an option to book the Park and Ride either... is there a separate process for that?

Fantastic parenting for a midweek evening game - love it

Don't ask me, I'm in Tier 4

Thank you. I sent an email to Supporter Services a few minutes ago.

Why will so many come up on the exchange ? Game is in less than 2 weeks, so surely people are only going to buy if they are pretty sure they are going to go ?

I reckon anyone in 3 or 4 has virtually no chance of getting a ticket unless they can spend ages waiting for the odd exchange ticket to pop up.

1) the club randomly release more at times
2) people will ping on their app in those 2 weeks and isolate and not got
3) people will have their plans change
4) day of the game illness etc etc work etc

Just got to keep refreshing the exchange - all 3 / 4 games with 2.5k fans I managed to get about 2/3 extra tickets on the exchange. If you want it bad enough, you can go is my honest opinion.

I really doubt it.......maybe a dozen or two, but def not 'hundreds'. - it's too close for people's plans to change too much, and the infection rate is so low now not that many are going to get pinged to isolate. Agree though that anyone who is prepared to stay logged on and keep refreshing might pick one up if they do it for long enough.....................based on last time also worth looking out for the disabled seats as they seemed to go unsold for a while last time abut were released for sale to anyone.

Not necessarily - when I've been P1 (and the same for away games) you know that you can drop in any time in the first window because you're guaranteed a ticket......

Good to see we are able to remove our masks while in our seats. Otherwise I will spend the whole game looking through steamed up glasses.
