They certainly haven’t before, and it seems unlikely they will now, even given the huge rise in demand.

Understand the criticism of ST holders being allowed to get additional tickets - BUT - I don’t think it’ll be a massive issue going forward now they’ve knocked it down to one. They’ve effectively halved the number of tickets that will be taken through this method, so I’m not not sure we’re going to get scenarios like Liverpool last season where it’s absolute chaos as soon as tickets go on sale. And to be fair, the majority of home games after the takeover still took a week+ to sell out. The Forest game is gonna be a good gauge of whether I’m right I suppose. Obviously, if the criticism is more based on the principal of it, fair enough.

£21.95 for a junior membership apparently

Same time mate

Yes, that is a typical Box Office copy/paste last years stuff and leave a few mistakes in for good measure.

Also seen a screenshot where the adult Membership was priced at £36.95, but can’t find the option to bring that up anywhere on the site myself.

Spotted this on the site. May only be 1 match ticket per membership this season (obviously this is the junior Membership and it doesn’t have it on the adult one, so not really clear).

I don’t think many would expect him to be really challenging the starting 11. But he’s got pre-season and training to show he’s worth a match day squad place ahead of the likes of Murphy, or maybe even Fraser. If not, then off on loan he goes again.

Exactly, so unless they’re going to change that, they’ll still be able to purchase additional tickets

Yes. Been £30 per season so far. Would expect that’s still the case

Yeah, not heard if that’s still the case this season. Guessing it probably will be.

Members get first dibs, so it depends if there’s any left after they’ve been on sale to them. And the way things are going that’s looking like becoming less likely, certainly for ‘big’ games. If you’re going to be looking to purchase individual match tickets, it’s definitely advisable to get a membership.

What about the folk that walked away during the Keegan fiasco. You can go on and on. They couldn’t win whatever they did.

If everyone’s logging in on multiple devices then I’d imagine the queue numbers are going to be vastly inflated from the actual number of people in the queue?

Good luck all. But remember there’ll still be loads of individual match tickets on sale every game.

They’ve been working on it since then as it’s been taken down a couple of times for ‘maintenance’. Whether that actually results in it standing up to the deluge tomorrow…

Correct. Although obviously don’t leave it til 5 past…..

It won’t matter how much earlier you log on as the queuing system they use gives everyone in the queue at 10am a random place.

You wouldn’t need to bother transferring the name of you did get one (unless you were wanting it to be a junior instead of an adult or something)

As spotted by @Bellis80, there is now a ‘Ballots’ section when you log in to your ticket account. Whether or not this is related to ST distribution is obviously anybodies guess, but there’s obviously going to be something new next season. Intriguing…

Hates the Mags tho Marra

Well not quite. I mean there will be those people in there obviously, but they’ve had to try and find a way of somehow trying to incorporate those that gave up ST prior to the takeover. As has been discussed at length, it was near enough impossible to come up with a solution that did that fairly. This way, they’ve made an assumption (probably fairly), that most of those will have purchased a ticket fairly recently. But like was always going to be the case, there is no ‘right’ way to do it, and especially given the small number of ST that would appear to be going on sale. It does mean plenty of match day tickets still though, so whilst I realise that’s not the same as having ‘your seat in your area’, if you want to get in, you almost certainly can.

You’re better off just buying a membership and purchasing individual match tickets for the games you are around. Depending on the particular game, demand could be high, but if you know when tickets go on sale and can log on at that time to get them (keep an eye on the tickets section in here for info), you’ll almost certainly always get one.

Separate

Been £30 previously, so would expect that kind of figure again
