More Season Ticket Holders will be going to West Ham than went to Spurs

On the basis that we have a ticket allocation of 5,200 and half the tickets have gone to STHs, that means that 2,600 STHs are going to West Ham. If we've got 4,000 STHs, that means that 65 per cent of them have a ticket.

At the Spurs game, only 42 per cent of STHs got a ticket.

The system was changed to increase that percentage. It worked.

If WHUFC and the Metropolitan Police had been sensible and allowed our allocation to be increased, even more STHs could have gone.

That is all.

I thought WH offered us a further 2000 seats but the club turned them down? Presumably because they had to be paid for up front?

That's all very well, but not much comfort when you're in the 35% of STH's who don't have one. :(

Be interested to see in each game how many STH applied and were succesful or unsuccesful.

If a STH misses out on the allocation for STHs, do they then 'fall through' to the AMS allocation for a second chance there? Or are not STHs not considered to be AMS also for the purposes of such ticket allocations?

My term for them is "admirers".....but seems to cause offence........On reflection I think the distinction between "supporters" and them is that they,re really "followers"......i.e....they "follow" the albion... on the tele, the newspapers, bits of gossip from they,re mates etc etc etc and of course, once every couple of years when there,s a big game (they don,t seem to have a problem then , getting time off work or affording it )....whereas a "supporter" actually goes regularly to see the albion play...i.e. they "support" them at the grounds, vocally, financially and in person, of course that includes all the games against all the less attractive teams in League One in the pouring rain etc etc..

Sorry LB but it certainly has'nt helped me!

Missed out on Spurs and now this one, been to Port vale today numerous other glamourous places this season and pay for a blinking ST.

Just feels like a very large kick in the bollocks, most businesses try to look after their best customers not try and accomodate casuals.
