Imagine being that rich / lazy / selfish / weird.
I sat in my seat a grand total of once last year. That's because there were 2 seats by my mates (which i've officially moved to this year) that I always plonked my arse in as I knew they wouldn't turn up. On the general point though, it is weird people buy a season ticket but don't turn up.

Do we know when this Albion+ window will end? i want to get an ST for my daughter (who is Albion+ but not in this priority window) and I'm not sure when / if this might be possible.

End of Friday I was told. Not sure how quickly the club will communicate who is eligible for the second window but those in the first have until the end of tomorrow.

Yep my youngest son was hoping to get a season ticket but has letter saying in priority group two- shame he’s been to a fee

shame away games not considered - son has missed out priority one despite a few far flung away games this year . He will go to home games if I or my eldest son shares out ticket with him but he’s not going to buy a ticket to sit on his own!
Does the letter explicitly state that he's in the second window? Mine only said I wasn't in the first.

The current priority window is open till 5pm on Tuesday April 2nd.

Nothing yet on when any remaining season tickets will go on sale.

I'm working abroad and do not know how long I will be away. I do not want to lose my seat next to my son, brother and nephew when I do come back. I make the odd home game, went to 3 out of 4 europa away games. The home games that I can't make are put on sale ASAP and only 1 has not sold, I think that was Burnley on a Tuesday night lol. So my seat is pretty much always filled.

Really? Odd as I was told over the phone it was only open until the end of tomorrow.
That date has come from the email the club sent out last week to anyone who was in the priority group. It's also the date on the season ticket page of the website (https://tickets.brightonandhovealbion.com/subscriptions) so I think whoever told you that on the phone was mistaken.

I didn't get an email from the club but logged in this morning and it said I was P1 and able to purchase a season ticket :shrug: No idea what happened there, quite annoying as I wouldn't have even known about it if not for this thread.

Wasn't able to though because my lad isn't in P1. He has been to one home game less than I have this season, annoyingly!

Has your lad been getting the tickets under his own A+ membership or on yours as a F&F?

My teenage daughter got the same email and the same dates.

Got a real result, was able to shift myself seat along a couple of places and the person who had the seat next to my new one hasn't renewed, so got her that seat at 9am for next season. So we'll sit together.

Been trying to get her a ST in the NW with me for the last 2 seasons. Costing me a fortune to get day tickets, can't get some games and others on the TX I need to pay adult prices when she's U18. Result.

On mine under F&F. He does have a MA+ membership but I book his tickets (he's 9). Does that make a difference?
I don’t think it matters how they are purchased providing they are assigned to your son. My son is 11 so obviously isn’t buying the tickets himself. I login and get them and make sure they are assigned to him. The games he has been to have been purchased in a number of different ways too, some have been normal tickets for an 11 years old, some have been via season ticket sharing when family or friends can’t go and a couple I’ve had to bite the bullet and pay full adult price for via the exchange as I’ve had no other option.

Although I buy his match day tickets from my account I had to login to his account directly to buy his season ticket.

Have you tried that for your son and seeing if it comes up that he’s got priority as well? If you can’t login to his account it might be worth giving the club a call in the morning and seeing if you can buy two season tickets that way.

I bought our first new shiny season tickets this morning. There was a reasonable amount of choice - but mostly near the near/pitch rain zone or the haunted area (E1H).

As we were buying we wondered what characters from the “unbearable neighbour” thread we’d soon be seeing close up.
I was looking at this area! What do you mean by haunted?

Edit..
Haha, yeah i can see why looking at the stadium plan. It's actually area E1E I was look at.

No kidding! Disappointing to hear as I wanted clarity a bit sooner but I'll have to sit tight in that case. Thanks.
P.S. I do hope it's not the case that as suggested in the email the next window will see STs made "available to all [other] MyAlbion+ members." I can understand prioritizing home league match attendance given going to home games is arguably the essence of holding a ST, but as someone on 167 points, I'd feel a bit hard done by if I had to compete with 1-pointers next month.

I was on a train yesterday, and when I first looked at the email it loaded without images and said something like 'you qualify for 50% off a home shirt 2024/25'

Now it's loaded properly its just trying to flog me a welcome pack.

Is there such an offer?

I got that when I renewed. IIRC you had to pay in full (no direct debit) using an Amex card. Then they’ll send a voucher in May.
