seagulls gold membership

[BensGrandad]

The club are saying that if we reach the play offs STH cannot be guaranteed their seats for the semis unless you upgrade to Gold Membership. I do not want Gold Membership which means tickets for away games which I dont want to go to now, have done that for many years. Am I reading this statement correctly? If so it is grossly unfair.

No, STH will still be guaranteed their seats but will have a very limited timescale to buy them.

No Gold Membership is renewed every season, so it is just for this season's playoffs. It is for cup games. Playoffs are counted as cup games.

Platinum membership is for away games as well.

Why can they not extend the opening hours of the ticket office for this one off occasion even until 10 or 11 oclock at night?

It doesn't cost anything. It just means that your home ticket is added automatically without you having to apply and overloading the online ticket booking.

Wouldn't have thought there would be a need for this when most people will buy their tickets online which can be done anytime of the day

How much does it cost?

The online ticket service is switched off at night.

As I read it no money will be taken if we dont make the play offs so conversly some will if we do.

Yes but only the amount of the ticket

Enrolling for the chance to secure your playoff seat is free. Nothing money grabby about!

Then you are reading it incorrectly. The money will be taken automatically for a home ticket if we make it. There is no cost for Gold membership.
I know because I have been a Gold member since last July.
When the season ends, so does the membership. I will have to re-register again in July.

The only money that will be taken if we make the playoffs is the price of the ticket for the home leg.

 

[Superphil]

How much does it cost?

Don't think it costs anything. I think the idea is to enable you to guarantee your seat, without the need to queue on the phone, at the ticket office or online. At the same time reducing the pressure on the ticket office and online system, should we make it into the play off positions. That said, as a STH you are guaranteed the be able to buy your ticket anyway, whether you sign up or not.

 

[Triggaaar]

How much does it cost?

Nothing. Barber out!

 

[BensGrandad]

If that is the case it makes sense to do it if it only covers the home leg and possible final, as I am not going to the away leg.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

If that is the case ut makes sense to do it if ut only covers the home leg and possible final, as I am not going to the away leg.

It wouldn't cover the final, only the home leg.

 

[BensGrandad]

Ok thanks for clarifying that, I shall enrol in it.

It only covers the home leg. If we don't get into the playoffs, it covers nothing. It makes perfectly good sense for the club, and anyone who would go to the home leg of the playoff semi. There's nothing "money-grabbing" or underhand about it whatsoever.
