What is the deal with applying together? Does that mean they think you are waiting for a pair next to each other? Me and dad both pot 1 but not sure whether to apply individually and maybe stand a better chance or to submit together.

I’ve added a poll to Season Tickets thread on the Ticket forum for people to record their pot number.

 

We probably all know the majority will be Pot 1, but let’s get some votes and see if it gives us an indication of anything different.

This is the dilemma.


we ended up together, as if unsuccessful (likely) I assume our waiting list numbers will be together

I’ve applied for pretty much every game, only missed if they didn’t send an email.

More than I thought :icon_salut: I guess I was thinking more on the purchase/attending side of things.

75% should have been attendance.  Takes nothing to apply for a ballot.


Whilst that’s true about it taking nothing to apply for a ballot, there’s also plenty of people who don’t work on computers and therefore ballot is their only option. 
 

I can make myself free at 10am on a Monday and also F5 whilst on phone calls at my desk job.
 

If I was a teacher I don’t have those options.

 

Which would mean my only way to get a ticket would be to get someone with a desk job to link accounts and buy tickets on my behalf. If I don’t have any friends with desk jobs who are also NUFC match goers, then I’m fucked.

Arguably easier to get a ticket with a bit of persistence within 48 hours of the game rather than the 10am Monday scramble.

 

Particularly if you don’t know how to manipulate the queue.

Very easy to get a ticket nearer to the game this season.

 

If you live locally, or can get to Newcastle at short notice then buying an ST resale in the days before the game has been a piece of piss. Obviously not everyone can make themselves available for a game at 48hrs notice though. 
 

Didn’t even have to F5, just select from hundreds of available seats.

 

As a result, I sacked off the 10am sale a while back. 
 

Surprising how many people I know who weren’t aware that resale tickets were widely available.

It's generally easier to get tickets in the days leading up to the game providing you're only after one. If you're wanting to take your bairn(s) with you it's still extremely difficult as nearly all the resales seem to be single seats.

Had the confirmation of 'my order' for the season ticket waiting list but it still lets me add to basket and submit again. 

 

Shouldn't this have an 'edit' instead like when we entered ballots. This happening for everyone else? Anxiety through the roof and still have to wait another month

Give the Box Office a ring and check with them.

 

And I can't see the point in being anxious. There's 250 x ST's but many thousands of members who'll be in Tier 1.

 

Like being anxious about what you'll spend your millions on because you've bought a single lottery ticket for a draw in a months time.

Aye but can't win the millions if you're not in the draw either. Kna mean.

Well aye, that goes without saying, you gotta be innit to winnit.

 

But being innit doesn't mean you've a decent chance of being a winnit.

 

Cogito ergo sum, no point in being anxious.

Good morning all!

 

With the fixtures out out today its been confirmed (TV rescheduling permitting) that the family and I will be in the Toon for the Everton game in October.  I took my daughter to her first game last last year and it was the 1st game after the take over and she fell in love with it with the atmosphere at that spurs game.  We live in the far north of Scotland so its a rare we get down and tie it in with a home game.  I am going to try my best and get tickets for the 3 of us for that game.  My question is about the membership scheme that Newcastle have.  Since i want 3 tickets would i have to buy membership for each of us so we all have access to earlier ticket sales? 

 

Thanks in advance.

Yeah, pretty sure each person needs their own membership if you want access to the member sale allocation for all 3 tickets. Newcastle ties tickets to individual supporter numbers now from what I’ve seen.

Wouldn’t leave it late either — even “less glamorous” games are getting hard to grab since the takeover.

Just the 4 years later with that advice.

54 quids for a pre-season kickabout against a mid table Premier League team we’ve played billions of times and it’s on a rugby pitch in Auld Reekie  
 

fuck that ice cube GIF

£54 for this Everton game seems steep. Though I’m not a pre-season aficionado so can’t remember comparisons. 

It’s ludicrous really. But this is what happens when external companies get to set the price…
