Mrdovenb Posted September 14, 2023 Share Posted September 14, 2023 Just looking around the league a bit… Man United’s ballot gives you the option of premium or standard. That’s it. When you get right down to it, that actually makes more sense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully this is where my luck turns. I have opted for the most chance of success area. The family section and I am now 0/3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattypnufc Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 Cup games will be the best chance of winning a ballot for any member. You'll have all the empty general sale seats, and all the ST's who didn't opt for the cup packages. I reckon it'll be at least 20k. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is West Ham’s stupid policy of increasing age of a senior to 67 and our box office putting on sale amending the senior category age to 67 but not the adult category. Basics.

Newcastle daft but living in Brighton these days and has a young family so home games aren’t an option very often, but he was a regular at aways. Now he can’t get to either.

patrone Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 What happened to the mythical "second ballot"? What happens if the cup game doesn't sell out? They haven't left much time to do a general sale, and I cant see them having pay on the door Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGuv Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 I honestly think this forum could sort the Box Office out on a volunteer basis. The Trust have effectively become a de facto Customer Services portal for the Box Office anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reggae Magpie Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 Probably a stupid question but why is there no family section on the ballot for the Man City game? Cat 1-3 don't cover that area in L7. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There hasn’t yet been an occasion where the 2nd ballot is needed. The 2nd ballot will only happen if for example not enough people enter category 1. There for there would be tickets left over for category 1 and would need re balloted. It was only added in to the t & c (likely a legal thing) after it was changed to allow people what category was picked. Let’s be honest it’s unlikey it’ll ever happen where there’s a short fall in people entering one of categories but they rightfully need to put something in place it ever does happen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
