Newcastle United away tickets policy

For the Man City game the club have purchased the lower tier which holds 1.7k they offered it to ST holders with 25 loyalty points they then reduced it to 0 loyalty points on the second day of 0 loyalty points sale it had sold out. The next day they advertised it to family's with children under a certain age! How the hell can they justify that? I'm 17, 18 next month so understandably I don't have an 8 year old child and as a result I can't go to the match! It's an absolute joke how they can tell me a season ticket holder that the game is sold out and then the next day offer tickets to members only if they have a child! How can there justification for not giving me a ticket be that I didn't shag someone when I was 10! To top it off last year we sold out the lower and upper tier but this year they haven't even bought the upper tier and I emailed them asking if they are planning to and they said "we will not be receiving any further tickets for either game". Why the hell not?! If we sold it out last season when we were **** surely we would sell it out this season now that we are actually doing well. Also the fact it was only on 0 loyalty point sale for little over a day suggests it was popular. Then for the Man Utd game it was on 25 loyalty points for ages it came down to 0 on Tuesday, yesterday morning I tried to buy a ticket and it was sold out. I asked the club if they will be getting any more due to the huge popularity of it and they said no!

 

I think the family one's might end up in a family enclosure away from the main away support, I'm not certain though.

 

I thought this.

 

They only need to look at the amount of fans we took to Rovers last night to see that they are losing out big time by not offering the upper tier as well as lower.

 

I'm pretty pissed off. For us fans in the north west there is a select few games we can get to a season. We have to buy club memberships and then still can't get tickets. It's an absolute joke. I was really looking forward to these games but I can't go because of our awful allocation!

 

Do we get any money from the gate receipts for away games? Because if not then MA isn't missing out on anything at all and is trying to ensure he doesn't have to pay for unsold tickets (even though there wouldn't be any).

 

Even if the gain isn't monetary the representation of our club and our support can only be shed in a positive light, and you'd think that the impact on the players would be more positive.

 

That's why I demanded a refund last season as the membership stated it gave you improved chances of getting a ticket before they went on general sale.

 

The new ticket policy is a ****ing joke.

As you said , if we can take more than 4000 to Blackburn on a Wednesday night , we can do the same , if not more at Man United or Man City at a 3pm kick off on Saturday.

It's not rocket science...

 

I'm not really into rocket science, can you explain it to me?

 

I was having this conversation with my mate the other day. It's a joke, just get the full allocation for **** sake!

 

At the risk of banging on about new EPL rules on allocation, the club seems to be letting us down BIG time.

Club can buy 50% of total availability on sale or return basis.......thereafter unsold tickets cannot be returned.

Taking such piss poor numbers to big games is pathetic...........
