When I bought the Leicester ticket, we missed the pick your own seat deadline and booked elsewhere, but I didn't link him to the booking in the new seats. Spoke to the box office and they said there's nothing they can do, even though he can prove he was at the game. I get why they can't change retrospectively but it's still pretty crap. Best hope for my sake that he can get something in the ballot So when you bought the 2 Leicester tickets you assigned them both to yourself and not to you and your dad?

TheGuv Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 My dad bought mine for Palace and did the same thing but as I’m a member it’s not affected me. But was raging before I knew that it was only Members with +1 game I did contact the club and they were having none of it to add the ticket back to my membership. Suppose anyone could say it like.

When purchasing extra tickets you should always assign them correctly across your F&F if it’s them going. There was always going to be a cup purchase ticket element attached to the process once it was confirmed we had more ST holders than the 32.7K allocation. By the way iirc you were looking to buy 8 in a group if possible but just to give you a heads up Wembley only allowing a maximum of 6 per person. So you and your friends/kids will need to bare that in mind and buy separately. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cambb Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 I have various ST holders on my account and intend to buy 5 in P3 and then 4 in P4 but you say Wembley only allowing a maximum of 6 per person. All will be attending the game its just some work shifts and wont be up for 10.00. So will that not work? Cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BUJ Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 If it makes everyone feel better my ticket is ordered. Train up n down. Green Man the lot. Anyone know of a Labour Club Wembley edition? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers I think p4 onwards will just be a case of logging on and clicking a button that says you want entered into the ballot. Don’t think you’ll be able to ‘buy’ as such. Don’t really know how that works for the six person rule? Might be best to just get one of the other person’s login details and do it via their account.

Would be ideal if we could sit together. I'd feel incredibly harsh going without him though if he couldn't get a ticket hence why I was willing to drop to pot 4.

Scoot Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 (edited) I'll be going there by myself for this. All the people I generally go to the match with aren't season ticket holders. They're either members or I just get mates tickets on a game by game basis on my season tickets. So its the bus there and back on my Todd. Feel like I right Billy no mates.

Scoreboard82 Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 1 hour ago, Craig H said: I’ve spoke to box office about ballot as was unable to locate the terms If unsuccessful in 4 you don’t move to 5 and so on. it seems that if you are in 4-7 you may have an equal chance. when you apply you fill in the ballot sheet online and then pray until the following Tuesday It's possible I suppose but would be surprised if they lumped people from 4 different categories into the same ballot. As you say, the date for being told whether successful or not is the same but the way I understand it is there'll be a ballot for the P4 applicants then should tickets be left afterwards it'll go to a further ballot for P5 and so on.

If you miss out in pot 4 ballot it will be because we've sold out our allocation and there will be no tickets for pot 5. Probably me being pessimistic as I'm in pot 6.

Yup I'll be on my own, where I live I don't even have any mates that support Newcastle so I generally go to the matches on my own.
