LFEE Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 10 minutes ago, SteV said: If p4 is a ballot you won’t be able to pick your seat, I wouldn’t have thought? Interesting thought. I’d of thought ballot just referred to how many on sale that day not the inability to choose your seat. Bit like a gig. So basically less tickets for actual sale for everyone who is P4 eligible so no guarantees hence a ballot. If what you are saying is the way they go they’d still offer you choice of price point availability on sections with seats I’d imagine. I’d of thought you could still choose actual seat though. Back in 98&99 I think no one could select any specific seats and you just chose your price point and they’d group you together like an away game now. That applied to everyone. Stadium layout was far more basic though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 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 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 I'm in pot 3, but my dad, who has attended all of the same cup games + is a ST holder, didn't receive an email. 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 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So a separate ballot for each pot, but the higher up you are the more chance there will be of getting one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

She said it wasn't possible. I either buy mine in period 3 or miss out. He would have to hope he's successful in period 4 and try get as close to mine as possible. if its just to sit next to ur brother - i'd get one in pot3 and let him go to ballot. i'm sure you'll manage to get round the stadium within limits to sit next to him. sounds like you only would want to go if you could sit next to your brother?

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...

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.
