    But that's literally the point, paying the £37 is to be given more of an opportunity than those who don't - not sure anyone thinks it makes them "superior" but the members should get more chances to buy because they are paying for it.

    Said it last week think you should be entered into all the ballots up to your chosen price point but then those who can only afford the Cat 3 seats will have a ridiculous amount of comp.

    Basically the system is super difficult to appease everyone - this was probably a case of "if it aint broke don't fix it" but they've been lobbied to try and stop touts and while I see that this works better this way, it is a royal pain in the arse for people who just genuinely want to go to a game themselves.

    If they could just sort it so that people could set an exposure limit and only be entered in the ballot for solely those seats, that would be great. Anyone without an exposure limit gets in the ballot for EVERY seat.

    Surely it can't be that difficult?

    £37 is **** all in the grand scheme of things though. I could spend more than that in the concourse in 30 minutes.

    As I say it’s not so much here but Twitter/Facebook/other Newcastle forums - last years members think they should have had auto renew like season tickets and be treated like their loyalty points should be over 500 the way their going on.

    Seems nobody reads what their buying and expect more for their money than what they paid for.

    I think there will be further changes/updates before tickets go on sale for Liverpool game - the speed they were able to put the price categories change in place suggests further updates aren't going to take long

    Everything seems difficult for our ticket team.

    But i'm assuming ST holders can only get ST holder resales, and members get member resales, so probably.

    You wouldn't think there would be many like, unless they are also holding some back like they did last season.

    No one has a ****ing clue thanks to the non- existent communication from the club.

    Think about what you just said. Why would a st holder sell their ticket knowing they can’t make the game buy a ticket? <laugh>

    A ST holder can get a ticket from a ST holder who can't go... like you could get one for your son?

    Dunno. <laugh>

    If you know any ST holders ask them if they haven't already used up their allocation, think it's 1 ticket for a ST holder.

    It's ST holders who aren't using theirs.
