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

[Guinness Boy]

See it now, which is great as can work out roughly for amsterdam if we are not sold out by Friday (which I doubt).

We can probably work that out anyway. Villa T1 (3000) was 255 I think, Man City defo 255, Chelsea lower than that. Ajax gave Liverpool 2650 ish in the Champions league, which is about the same as we got at Fulham and Palace last season. Based on this, with some points to add from games in the interim, I suspect the guarantee for Ajax will fall off between 270 and 280 and they'll sell out in the next day's 9am.

The joker for that is that it'll probably be based on registration numbers rather than the whole fan base so if only 3500 register those limits will all be a lot lower. Realistically registration will be much higher than Marseille though.

I hear we’re going tit-for-tat and fining any Marseille fans who turn up in the Brighton Marina ASDA

 

[Peacehaven Wild Kids]

Has anyone who registered not received an email yet?

Yeah, me

 

[Guinness Boy]

Does anyone know what tickets are Cat 1 or Cat 2? Can’t see it say anywhere on the ticket information?

Cat 1 are staff and player comps. All ordinary fans will be in the away end.

To be fair you'd be looking for a young / old, black / white, retired / investment banker clutching a cheap lager, an expensive coffee and a gold leaf enrobed burger.

Exactly !! London address as well. I'm just a tourist guv'nor

Some people were mocking me when I warned how dangerous Marseille could be to Brighton fans . Hopefully people on here will know realise I wasn’t making it up or over exaggerating .

No away colours by order of the French police is unprecedented as is a police escort to inside the stadium.

So unprecedented in fact that it was the same for Spurs fans.

Makes the palace away game look like a friendly kick about !

Unprecedented?

It's almost exactly what Spurs had last season. We literally copy-and-pasted their communication and did a few minor tweaks.

Per other thread as well. Ticket collection closes 3 hours before game which is ridiculous. Many of us will be running about last minute.

I guess if there is a plane delayed there is this fan hotline so we would have to report it there?

We're on a flight to Nice - landing at 11.40am local time - Its starting to all look a bit tight. especially if EasyJet can't keep to time. GULP.

Ive asked the question of supporter services and will post an answer when recieved even if its "no exceptions" !! I'm on the tight rope of the flights to Nice , Car Hire option!

 

[BHANSC]

Not sure how you can fine someone for being in an area of a city but ok...

They surely can't do no exceptions because what if a flight is delayed? Absolutely ridiculous

Car hire ?

I am not sure they will bother with fines, just tear gas and batons.

I have serious concerns about this especially if the same time frame is implemented in Amsterdam

Blimey, that is very tight. Brave decision to cut it that fine.

This historic old port of Marseilles is a must visit place for anyone visiting this most important and busiest port of France. The history surrounding port is amazing, going back to 600 BC! There are so many shops, restaurants, hotels and other attractions all around the port area. If you are into seafood, you have so many options around the port area. The old port is packed with hundreds and perhaps thousands of sail boats, quite the spectacle to see from the shore or on a boat ride out from the port. Would highly recommend walking all the way around the port area on all three sides and also taking at least one boat ride from the port, so you get the whole perspective and incredible views. However if you are a supporter of Brighton And Hove Albion visiting this area will result in a fine and/or imprisonment.

Not really a brave decision ! Marseille is a 2 hour drive from nice. So in a logical world even if the flight was delayed 2 hours you would still arrive with plenty of time

40 points roughly up for grabs prior to the game going on sale

I was in one of those bus convoys in Rome for a Europa League game. The route to the stadium was lined with gesticulating, spitting Romans and the odd missile was thrown (by them, not the jolly Fulham fans). It was slightly unnerving after the game being returned to the main railway station where there was zero police presence. Luckily, the ultras had decided we weren't worth bothering with. Hope it goes well for you.
