[Albion] Season ticket renewals 25/26

[BNthree]

What about the new south stand for home supporters? Can we not buy season tickets there?

Thought that was happening for 26/27 season. Got to be keen if you're trying to buy there already.

Is putting the ticket on the exchange the same at it actually selling on the exchange for the purpose of the 75%, ie does it count if it doesn't sell.

Yes

Good question! Mine has sold less than half the times I've listed it.

As long as you put it on the exchange by 2pm on the day before the match.

So easy to put tickets on the exchange. If it’s a last minute decision not to attend, you can still share with a MyAlbion+ member. If all else fails, you can simply not turn up to four matches a season without risk of penalty.

Just to point out that's 75% usage: if you sell through the exchange or transfer using the club scheme that counts are usage. They don't want empty seats.

The ticket doesn’t even have to sell on the exchange. Listing is all that is required.

Which is fair. It's just not clear wording.

I read it incorrectly.

Mine has never not sold…….

Mine has never not sold…….

Lucky you. I obviously sit in an unpopular spot.

In the directors box?

Appreciate not the same for all.. but for me that includes a train ticket each match from Haywards Heath costing c£9 a game * 19 games - so £170 travel makes the football element £440..

Exactly. Most will use some sort of travel (train or p&r) that’s included in ticket price.

 

[Dave the OAP]

No. It’s for 7 f’ing holidays a year

7?

how very dare you……. ( six last year)

 

[Wozza]

Doubt many if any buy a ST to not use it.

I think you’d be surprised…

 

[dazzer6666]

WSL cheap seats

 

[Birdie Boy]

Not received renewalnotice should i have? By email?

I think they come in batches, not everyone at once.

Oh and additional to the above, a season ticket to mid table League Two MK Dons will run you over £600 next season. A season ticket at National League Aldershot is over £300. Plus you’d have to go to Aldershot every week.

Worst town to live in Britain according to The Daily Express . I won't disagree with that it's a turdhole

Agreed. A a football club with great intentions, but also with no idea what it's like to be a paying supporter and how these things could be taken.

They certainly wouldn’t be taking such liberties if we weren’t in the Prem.

Both my kids are still U18 (just) so still just under £1k but only just. This season I've started cutting back a lot on what we buy in the ground as I am starting to notice it more. I buy the kids sweets etc form Tesco Express outside the station before the match now. It's why I find the 17.30 kick off such a pain, food costs for 2 x teenagers.

Do the club stewards ever see the sweets and say it’s against the (money making) rules?

 

[sussex_guy2k2]

We get endless posts complaining about the ‘pretendance’ and empty seats…….and now endless posts about the club trying to fix the issue

They’re not trying to fix the issue. They’re hiding behind the guise of trying to fix the issue whilst going after people that have paid money for their product, without actually improving the system that would allow people to pass on tickets fairly and effectively to fill the stadium. It’s all about making money - which is fine, as they’re a business and run to make money, whatever supporters like to believe.

I’ve got to say, I’ve been taking the train from HH this season for the first time and I’ve found it to be an unenjoyable experience, so looking for other solutions. The Palace game, in particular, had me on edge the whole journey and isn’t something I’ve any interest in repeating.

The management of the train system, particularly through Lewes, is abysmal.
