Not sure I understand Ron (unless you've whooshed me) - I've purchased my seat in E3, and it's been loaded onto my membership card - so the only way I can get to my seat is by showing my card to the band of high-viz that will be blocking my entry.

Surely if Den & Cambridgetiger did the same they'd be able to get to their usual seat?
Actually you’re right.
No one else apart from me can have bought my seat in the priority phase, then no one at all can have after that.
Well spotted

Ah..........just thought of summat else; You know that guy in the suit that hangs around the bottom with the chief steward - I bet he'll have an ipad or something linked to the ticket office, and if they see a person sat in what should be an empty seat, then expect the hi-viz to come steaming in.

It's so far fetched it could never happen - could it?

Me and my mate go in E3 but we have two more coming with us for this one. Couldn't buy our seats with others with us so had to wait for general sale. On general sale we couldn't buy in there at all even though there's plenty of room. We're in E5 so it'll be sit down, quiet please.
Not if you sit near me it won't.

This is true. I wasn't sure if I could make the game at the time so I waited. When I found that I could go I wasn't able to buy my own seat. The option for E2 E3 wasn't available.

E8 will do for one game I suppose.

Not trying to whoosh, just wouldn't bank on a steward being helpful / understanding... Or they might ask to see your 'ticket' not pass as its a cup game, you never know

I'm sure I remember seeing that if you bought your own seat, your membership card acted as your ticket for the cup game, so you don't have a separate ticket at all.

I could well be wrong, and usually am, but I doubt it, as your pass doesn't apply to cup games, and they could well have already allocated it to someone else.

I suspect the steward would want to see your actual match ticket.

If you bought your normal seat, it was uploaded to your pass, there is no separate ticket.

See, I said I was usually wrong. :emoticon-0102-bigsm

If you didn't buy your normal seat though, presumably it becomes available to someone else, so getting past the stewards would be academic, as there's liable to someone else sat there anyway.

Or am I wrong again? :biggrin:

That theoretically would be true, but if you're in E1-E3, it's never been made available to buy for anyone else for this game.

I don't see any way they can realistically check people going into E1-E3 for this one, some will have tickets and others will have passes, unless they have the facility to scan passes?

Someone already sat in the seat could be a tiny clue.

Won't everyone in these blocks just have it loaded onto their cards, seeing as everyone must be a pass holder? (can't remember if they automatically loaded it onto your card, or if there was an option to have a ticket)
 
When we've had friends who are non E3 want to join us we all go through to our seats leaving said mate on the concourse. After 5 minutes or so someone goes back to the concourse with an extra pass and gives it to the friend and they use it to get by and joins everyone else. There's always space as they dont sell tickets there anymore. We've done this twice already with no issue.

There was no option. If you missed the window then you had to buy a ticket elsewhere. Wild...
 
The recent statement from HCST following their meeting with the club about the E1-E3 situation mentioned that the club have now started selling tickets in there again. Is there any truth in this at all? I'm not aware of anything having changed, but I don't understand how the trust could've got that wrong.

We were assured these measures are under constant review and will be scaled back when deemed safe to do so. This has already been demonstrated by memberships and match by match tickets being back on sale in these areas.

You still can't buy them online as E2 & E3 are blanked out on the 'select your seat' option - this is still the case for the Stoke & Blackburn games currently available.

Not sure if it would be any different if you rang up and asked for a seat in these blocks
