I have got all (bar one) of my tickets this season through the player allocation route, so have no purchase history and imagine that the player I know will be absolutely inundated with requests... My dad is a season ticket holder though, so fingers crossed.
I think the tickets should be allocated by giving them to the people who travel the furthest to home games. Stockton is a long long way from Southampton. Overseas distances dont count. Sorry IOW supporters. Not going to happen.
Likewise if anyone should find a spare ticket down the back of the sofa!!! In the meantime, digging out the old black book...
There will be touts on the day if you have a fat wallet! There will be competitions to win tickets. Most important that if you don't buy from an Official source to be aware there will be plenty of forgeries on offer, don't get mugged.
Looking forward to the ticket criteria announcement - it should lead to some delightful discussions about who's been a better fan throughout the years. Personally, I think anyone who was a season ticket holder for the 1885/86 season should get first dibs.
Am a member, was there last night and have been to 4 other aways. Won't count any chickens until the tickets are in my possession. Have the train down booked anyway
Well I can't go . Official member and been to 3 games this season even though I'm at uni quite far away.
Spunked £75 on Sunderland away tickets + travel this morning to boost my chances. Ah well... Surely all of us who miss out will arrange to watch it on a big screen somewhere - maybe even at St Mary's??
