[Albion] Spurs Tickets

[Dave the hatosaurus]

So on 29th September the club sales reached the point where the exchange was opened. I had a look just after it opened and the total available was 413 these obviously being people on holiday etc who knew for sure they could not make it and had listed early. Within 24 hours that had risen to 635 as more people who realised the exchange had opened listed theirs as well. Over the next few days the numbers started dropping as you would expect.
Today i had a look fully expecting it to be well down especially with the result at Liverpool, table position and new managers first home game only to find it up to 940. Now i fully appreciate the train situation is a problem for those who have to travel some distance but was still a bit surprised. Any thoughts ?

Probably means the club have released a chunk, that were being held back for players / sponsors / whatever

It’s the train situation.

Be fascinating to see how many people sack it off altogether. Other than one story on the club site (that I'm not even sure made it on their social media, but no doubt Chailey Jem will be on this like a flash to correct me), there doesn't seem to have been much to promote the alternative travel/shuttle bus/extra park and ride.

A real shame for the new boss's first game

This combined with the later kick off.

Yup, this. Always the achilles heel for home games

And TV coverage

Trains = ballache, watching on TV the easy option. Simple

I listed mine on the ticket exchange and was very surprised that it has sold.

I’d have gone if it was a 3.00 kick off but can’t be doing with getting home well after midnight or having to stay over. Being on TV made the decision easier.

Category A games are also super-expensive.

May not help that the first line on the ticket page states ‘this match is sold out.‘It’s only if you read on that you realise tickets are available - wonder if that’s stopped anyone who has a quick look from buying?

Yep, had a similar conversation with a bloke at work - very occasional Amex visitor - yesterday. The sell out / exchange thing took some explaining and the messaging on the site didn't help one bit.

Say this all the time: club saying it’s sold out will confuse those that only occasionally buy tickets.

But the flag!

Also doesn’t help that the Club are not offering these remaining tickets up on “general sale” basis I.e. only available to ST holders and MyAlbion+ members. There are sure to be plenty of Albion fans who are not in these categories.

 

[Giraffe]

Still about 700+ available all across the stadium.

Well done for coming at all. Respect.
