[Albion] The Arsenal Golden Ticket Thread

4-4-4 ! Not a lucky person.

3-3-3
Not sure if this makes me any luckier than you, as the practical outcome is exactly the same!

Seems like good timing to reveal a response I had from Paul Barber when I asked why we don't use an algorithm to make the selection process as fair as possible - i.e.

Game 1
1,2,3,4

Game 2
4,3,2,1

Game 3
3,4,1,2

Game 4
2,1,4,3

Then just continue rotating those 4 permutations throughout the season.

As frustrating as it is (as above I have been drawn 3-3-3) his response makes complete sense. This is just the least imperfect way to do it.

Decent response to be fair. There’s no fully equitable way of doing it.........

3, 4 now 1 so good news for us. Question for those that went to the Sheff game...How close was the photo ID checked. My...ehm...*cough* friend is asking as the ticket is in his older daughters name but the younger one would like to attend in her sisters place?

 

[Jesus Gul]

3. Will have to miss this relegation 6-pointer

 

[Icy Gull]

3-4-4

Starting to wind me up now

I managed to get a ticket to Gillingham every week in a 2000ish crowd

 

[Gazwag]

3,2..............4

Got 4 tickets yesterday which I fully expect to have to put on the exchange next Wednesday

 

[Magicman]

3-2-3.
Saving grace is I still have all my credit in the pot.

I suppose it depends on how you value your season ticket, sorry how you friend values their season ticket

 

[SockMonster]

3,4 and 4 for me.

 

[Sheebo]

Maybe but that chance in tier 4 is 0.0000000001%
So effectively zero

I meant the exchange - doesn’t matter what tier you’re in if you get one on there...!

 

[Birdie Boy]

Mmm... I haven't received an email for the arsenal game, anyone else in this boat?
I've had 2 & 2 so far.

It was properly checked........name match and picture......

Me neither but you can simply log on to your account and see the window allocation anyway.

3, 4, 2

Might get a ticket for this without relying on the exchange...

 

[worthingseagull]

4 4 2 for me

and no I'm not going to start another poll showing 64 options

 

[SpongebobSquarepants]

2,2,4

 

[Bozza]

If the younger daughter was under 12 she’d not need ID...

 

[Krusty]

4 4 2 for me

and no I'm not going to start another poll showing 64 options

I think you should... and include whether or not you wanted / got tickets

Your idea would make things worse I believe as tiers would be equal nos. With 24,000 season tickets (for example) 6000 in each tier so only 1/3rd of tier ones would get ticket in the scramble. whereas now if you are in tier one you are I believe guaranteed a ticket!

4-2-4 for me !! No tickets yet .
