    It says the tickets for members will be decided by ballot so presumably you just have to log in, enter the ballot and wait for the result. Obviously the more memberships you have the more chance you get a ticket.

    Pretty sure you have to join the queue on both accounts and do it individually, then link them, memberships that is.

    Ok with you,you could buy 10 memberships but £37 is a pricey gamble.

    From Toon Polls on twitter:

    I’ve rang the Box Office to try and seek some clarity.

    First thing to say is that the lad I spoke to said they don’t have all the answers as they haven’t been fully briefed on how memberships will work (which seems crazy to me).

    He confirmed there are no renewals.

    He confirmed that memberships not included with ST but that ST are eligible to buy one tomorrow.

    In response to question about kids getting tickets, he said you’ll group together a ballot entry so (for example) either you’ll both get a ticket or neither of you will. If you have children it’s important they are grouped together with your ballot entry.

    He said this is in response to complaints from people that ST holders automatically got preference on additional tickets. In theory they expect that this will reduce the amount of members and therefore increase likelihood of members getting additional tickets.

    He wasn’t entirely sure how the ballot would work but felt it would work in a similar way to Cup Final where there is a cut off time/date to enter a ballot.

    International members don’t have (as some have implied from the wording of the comms) preference over Uk based members in terms of access to tickets. They will enter the ballot as well.

    We are already linked, you can set up the "relationship" thing and then when you buy tickets it usually allows you to get two, and then assign one of them to the other account I think.

    Match tickets yes but the initial membership sign up you have to log onto both accounts and do them individually, i think.

    Anyone want two tickets for the Man City game in the home end? The membership I bought last year to go to our game there is still valid but I will be back in Indonesia.

    PM me if you are interested.

    It’s always sold out. We should club together and get a seasonal one and then do it like a timeshare.

    Alternatively go with one of the sponsorship packages. They have one where you can nominate a mascot so you could do that.
