[Albion] Marseille v Albion ticketing - allocation and priority windows etc

[Kuipers Supporters Club]

anyone on the 7:10 from Heathrow on the Wednesday

Oh yes! Waves

 

[Richy_Seagull]

5 loyalty points for this one?! What’s that about?

To put in to context Villa is 10 and Chelsea in the carabao is 5 as well. Seems odd.

Speaking re Marseille, we already know the French hate us, but looking a little deeper, as soon as the draw was made EasyJet upped their prices for the cities we're playing in.........strictly speaking, due to Brexit the "authorities" need to know where any Brit visitors are staying and their financial details..........................

It’s called peak demand/surge pricing and the fares would have automatically gone up as more and more people searched for them and bought them. It’s not like someone in EasyJet consciously decided to raise them for to our matches and instead the ticketing system automatically does it.

Why? It’s one of the biggest games in the clubs history. It would be wrong to reward those who are able to go more than they should be (say that as a top capper)

Finally! was thinking Marseille didn't have an airport. I'm on the 8.10am from Stansted on the Wednesday.
Plenty of time to get down to the old port to take a couple of selfies before the police turn up and start nicking all and sundry.

I’m on that flight too! Driving from Tunbridge Wells to Stansted and parking at the airport

Anyone on the 0601 Eurostar from St Pancras on the Thursday morning, arrives 1356 Marseille? Colours will be worn until 1355.......

 

[trancing]

Anyone stying at The AC Marriot right next to the stadium? Flying out of Stansted at 8am on the day of the game arrive Marseille 11am

@Henfield One at 1356...

Harsh on anyone sitting on 229 who gets thrown in with everyone on 180+.

I know the cut point has to be harsh at some point for someone, but if it was more staggered it would certainly feel less harsh. Say every 20 points or so.

A friend of mine is on 222.

Maybe it's you? I have never had any issue with the French.

I have a mate on 228

We’re on the that flight. 8.10am
Good luck with getting out the stadium after being kept in for 45 mins, then herded onto a bus back to La Joliette, only to try and get back to your hotel!

That thought crossed my mind! I originally booked the AC hotel next to the ground but after reading the club advice have reserved a room today at the B&B hotel la Joliette to cover all bases. Got free cancellation so one will go when I’ve decided the best plan!

Yeah wishing I hadn't book this hotel now very annoying

Have you got free cancellation?

 

[Silver f Chariot]

I think there's a fair few underestimating how intimidating Marseille actually is as an away fan. Watch some you tube video's on games and you can get an idea. The Marseille fans are absolutely mental.... However the atmosphere they create is amazing.

8am weds out of LGW to Faro, then Faro to Marseille for 4pm arrival. - Can't bloody wait.

Can you not cancel and rebook? I did that today once the ticket arrangements were announced.
originally had a hotel near St Charles opposite the station, but cancelled it today and booked a hotel in the la Joliette area.

I think we all get it now. It’ll be fine.

Yep-Some people need to watch Ross Kemp on Gangs, the Marseille episode to be educated
