SteV Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 Just now, Sergio said: Yeah, can only select upto 6 tickets in one tier. One per member. Platinum Club is the most expensive tier, so assuming this puts you in all other tiers. If selecting a price point puts you in all the price points below, fair enough, but if someone goes for £74, and that precludes them from anything below, that wouldn’t seem right?

How clear is it that this is the case? it's the only sensible option, but with recent history I'm wondering. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 Bloody hell, I've just read the release properly. It does say "select a specific ticket price category". Surely you should be able to choose more than one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could easily argue that if you've been blessed with securing significant amounts of attendance then it's time to let someone else have a go. I don't think there is personally. You can make the argument but I don't think it holds much merit like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It obviously doesn’t in the current situation where we’ve just started to be good again. Might hold (a little) more merit once we’ve had 20 years of winning everything.

So it looks like specifically one category, not all the categories you're prepared to take. I was assuming you would set your maximum price and it would also include the lower ones.

That does point to them knowing it's an imperfect solution either way and to the potential of a better one coming down the line. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 So if you have to choose one category, you probably have a better chance choosing whichever is the most common? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more you can afford to pay the more option you have to get a ticket. Not massively fair, but that’s life really isn’t it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm advocating not punishing those who've been following the club up and down the country for decades. The lack of accessibility to tickets is overstated anyway, it's not that hard to get away tickets if anyone wanted to, especially in cup games.

It's just the bit that reads "Tickets can be allocated in any available category, and price of application may vary" It does seem very vague. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doctor Zaius Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 Fair play to them rolling it back and the quick response. You can't complain at them providing some kind of fix the next day. Looks to me like they're simply not ready in terms of the system they want to roll out and made the wrong call yesterday. It's not great clearly, but at least it's not as ridiculous as previous. Well done to the NUST, NUSC and others groups and individuals that's kicked up a fuss promptly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
