Groundhog63 Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 41 minutes ago, bobbydazzla said: It's not other people gaming the NUFC system that most system gamers are pissed off about, it's professional touting operations being given unfettered access to the NUFC system because the club won't shut the door on them. And also the fact that some punter with no allegiance to NUFC who signs up for a membership today has exactly the same chance of a ticket as a passionate fan who has had a membership for years and has been regularly applying for tickets or buying tickets. In my opinion, if a genuine NUFC fan is more lucky / skilled than me in getting tickets, then fair fucks, I'm not complaining about that. I wasn't having a pop at you Bobby 😂😂 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's why I have to constantly spend my time windmilling on here. I blame the xG nonces and the Michelle Collins haters. They've organised a vendetta.

LFEE Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 Probably for in here… https://assets.ctfassets.net/9ec6988xevcz/emwRz3cPJHtTiq8fIONqy/73074795e7d08a134a430814692bf8d8/FAB_Meeting_2_March_2026_FINAL_260326_V3.pdf Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CP explained the ticket process flow, confirming that each priority pot will open and close sequentially before the next is opened. YT confirmed that all of this will be handled through the system, with automated reporting. None of the work will be completed manually. It was noted that any season tickets not renewed during the next renewal cycle will be added into this process, with the hope that further availability will be secured. KW raised concerns about validating applicants to prevent automated activity and non-genuine supporters from obtaining tickets. It was agreed that identification checks and clear communication about validation would be included in the process, with the Club ensuring all selected individuals are properly verified. RN raised the importance of validating underlying data, including tracking the number of ballots a supporter has entered. MM invited any further questions, and SM reiterated that the Club cannot predict year to year how many season tickets will become available. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vedder Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 Not sure how I feel about that. Obviously would love to get one again, but if you miss out then chances of getting a ticket will be reduced. It’s hard enough to get a ticket as it is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hovagod Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Seems a bit mad putting fifty season tickets on sale. How are they even going to start keeping that fair? You’re genuinely talking national lottery odds. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wallsendmag Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 Some good news for members anyway. If the sample size of members I've spoken to is representative of the wider fanbase, anyone wanting Brighton tickets should find them pretty easy to come by Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Si67 Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 Another ballot failure which is surprising as according to the club my wife was pretty much guaranteed one this time according to their success percentages - does anyone think they may be wrong? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Success percentages are just an average, you can easily go many more games than that without a win. Don't think I've had one this season yet... maybe one.

SteV Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 41 minutes ago, Si67 said: The clubs claimed success percentage is bollocks. I think the last data they published had the ballot success rate at 10-12%, so when you factor in there’ll be people out there who’ve only entered 2 or 3 ballots and won one, it doesn’t take incredible amounts of bad luck to almost be going through an entire season without winning one, as frustrating as that obviously is.
