That’s not right and doesn’t help loyal members but it’s the route I’m forced down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NEEJ Posted Monday at 16:09 Share Posted Monday at 16:09 As a member who attended 3 home games and got screwed by the queue fuck-up for the semi-final, it's pretty annoying to see them place me right down the bottom below people that only went to 2 games, like. I think anyone that sat through Wimbledon at home should've been Pot 1. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted Monday at 16:17 Share Posted Monday at 16:17 (edited) Sure there was supposed to be ID checks last time but I don't know a single person who went and had theirs checked. In fact I know of more than one who got in without a ticket altogether, such was the laxness of the stewards.

Interpolic Posted Monday at 16:35 Share Posted Monday at 16:35 35 minutes ago, AyeDubbleYoo said: I agree but I can’t get too angry because ST holders have always ruled everything in football. So I’m disappointed but I was expecting it. The Liverpool approach seems much fairer to people who’ve actually been to the games. But that said, those ST holders who didn’t bother are probably quite a small number. Even if they didn’t go they would have bought tickets and sold/given them to people off the record. Almost 100% sure members were treated a hell of a lot better than this last time. Many cases of season ticket holders missing out in favour of members, which doesn't seem possible at all this time. There had been less home ties to use to stagger the pots, worth considering. Some season ticket holders kicked off about the fact they could lose out to members last time so it seems to me that has been taken on board. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye there was defo a ballot and then members were getting contacted by the club to say there's been a drop out etc so they could take that spare one. No luck for me like, I rang up and they could check if you were on the list to take one of those tickets and no cigar. Went to all cup games this time around thinking it would improve my chance. LOL.

I find that difficult to believe in all honesty. Would mean we’d probably have to have 35/36k ST holders. Seems high to me? As you say, I suspect that ~32k allocation is a fair bit less once hospitality, sponsors and players take their cut. At which point we then probably have more people in the cup scheme than tickets available. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NUFC_Chris Posted Monday at 17:02 Share Posted Monday at 17:02 There’s a group of us who’d like to sit together, but I think a couple will be in category 3 (due to forwarding their Wimbledon ticket). The only way to sit together is to wait 24hrs and pick seats with category 3, which could be a risk if that’s true. 🤔 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobbydazzla Posted Monday at 17:04 Share Posted Monday at 17:04 (edited) One of the most galling things about membership is that there's no way to elevate your status as a reward for going to or applying to go to games You can't get an ST so there's zero chance of giving yourself a better likelihood of getting into cup finals or away games We've got a completely segregated system and that segregation is based on people's willingness to keep paying for an ST to watch an Ashley owned NUFC And there's no attempt at all to recognise punters like me and many others, who since the ownership changed are forking out a fortune and dedicating loads of effort to get ourselves to games I don't think we should be at the top of the tree, but I also feel very pissed off that 3 years and thousands of pounds later we're still stuck at the very bottom in the weeds and moss Edited Monday at 17:05 by bobbydazzla Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
