This is the response from NUFC complaints ref the cup package for members

 

 

.....

 

Membership allows Priority access to tickets to home matches via a ballot – strictly 1 ticket per member. We did announce on our website on 16 June 2023 that we anticipated that any unsold cup scheme packages (which had been made available to season ticket holders) would be released to members but have since reviewed this decision in order to allow access to matches for more of our loyal members by selling on a match-by-match basis, which increases the chances via the ballot system for members to potentially be able to experience a Champions League home match at St James’ Park.

 

We do reserve the right to review and change membership benefits throughout the season and please note all benefits are subject to availability. I have attached our membership terms for you https://www.nufc.co.uk/media/78083/membership-terms-2324-final.pdf  where points 3.4 and 3.5 specifically provide this detail.

I’ve  got nothing to bank this up but anecdotally applying with kids seems to lend a greater chance of success. 
 

are you applying purely for adult tickets ?


Nope. 1 Adult, 1 Senior, 1 Child

Hows that suiting loyal members?

Definitely was for Brentford as that's what I applied for and got. We need to know which category level 7 is in these circumstances @Greg 

We think 2 - but club not confirmed but people seem to be getting tickets there through ballot.

I think its telling that people on here who were struggling to get tickets with the 10am queue last season have also been failing in the ballots

Not suggesting they're to blame for the changes, but the new system isn't helping them at all

 

Whereas people on here who were regularly getting tickets via the 10am queue are now regularly failing in the ballot, but then still finding ways to get tickets and are mainly frustrated as it's not in the areas they want to sit

 

And the timescales from ticket sale to match are so short that anyone out of the North East, or who needs to plan their weekends is also put in a difficult position

 

So who exactly is this ludicrous new system benefitting ? No one seems to be in a better position

 

 

 

 

Touts seem to be in a better position and by not restricting, or having tiered memberships they’ve opened the floodgates.

So level 7 is cat 2 and the only cat 3 area is the Leazes / Milburn corner in lower bowl. Doesn't make sense. 

It’s almost like they’ve got nobody in the ticket office that knows what they’re doing, or they do and realise that there’s more money to be made by making level 7 tier 2.

 

Would be interesting to know their thought process on how lower bowl seating is cheaper than inferior seats in level 7 though ?

You save on the cost of a gym pass when you climb to level 7?

My guess is there are no ST holders in L7 and therefore all seats for sale are one offs and at the new market levels (higher) than the lower bowl where they maybe feel they need to price closer to ST pro rata prices many still on deals this season.

 

Just a guess mind as like you’d think L7 should always be the cheapest.

Ah cheers mate that could well explain it. We're in LWC level 4.

Very same happened to me and my daughter for a cup game in the very same section last season. In the run up to the game we were baffled by how the seat Nos suggested we were sat apart but it all became clear when we got in there. Seats were together.
