I obviously missed this but can you say how the club managed to increase number of seats? Thanks in adva

1,000 extra seats by filling in gaps. If you have a season ticket you had better check the seat number because many have changed as a result. There will no doubt be a lot of confused people on Saturday.

Your seat number/row is clearly stated on your ST/match ticket.

How complicated is that? :shrug:

Add to the fact that most people will be where they were.

Hmm I thought this had changed. When I click on the resale button it says I can list my ticket for the following games:

Season Ticket Exchange is open for the below games:

The website is clear….you can list them any time, but they’ll only be available to purchase once the game has sold out…….imagine there would be a lot more than 1200 available for Watford if exchange tickets had already been listed.

Is the ticket exchange open ?

And if a ST sells a ticket on there do they still get a non-attendance Barber Black Mark ?

Why the sniffy comment? If this bloke doesn't even know that there are 1,000 extra seats and the knock-on effect then there is a fair chance others don't...

You can list the ticket you want to resell, but I think there's around 1K tickets still on general sale. It will probably sell out before Saturday.

Same seat different number that’s all. Unless of course someone’s a complete newbie then you just follow the signs. To be honest just about everyone knows where to go - which stand, which block, which row - so any apparent confusion will probably be alcohol inspired. :D

So given that it's a 5:30 KO then we should expect a lot of alcohol inspired confusion...

Okay, but football fans haven’t been able to watch a live game in 18 months so I would assume there would be a huge uptake in available tickets. Plus, I wonder how many people have decided not to go on holiday because of Covid restrictions?

Not many judging by the traffic on the roads I've seen over the last few days

I might be wrong here, but surely the £20 fee means that your unwanted ticket goes straight on sale rather than waiting for a sell out?

Completely wrong there Hugo! £20 gives you the right to transfer the ticket to a MyAlbion+ member and nothing else.

You can list it for sale whenever but the club won't sell your seat until all their available seats have sold first.

So far this season, attendances seem to be massively down on pre COVID levels which is understandable. Burnley only had 16,000 there on Saturday so 5,000 below capacity and there has been a big reduction on usual attendances in the football league.
