Actually they sold out within minutes after going on sale to the arsenal members! Crazy! Anyone else heading down early tomorrow? No idea how many they still have left but I'm going to get there for about quarter past 8 so I'm fairly near the front of the queue...
'From 9am on Tuesday 28th August until 5pm on Thursday 30th - Season Ticket Holders will have their priority window for this fixture, both online and at the Ticket Office.'
I read that Basset, but wasn't sure if that included "on the phone" from the ticket office. I'll be punching the keyboard hard come 9am!
You've made from it what I have, haven't really a clue! I'm going down just incase it crashes online or something silly like that. Anyway fingers crossed, I'm off travelling in November and won't be back til the end of the season and this is the away match I REALLY want to go to!
I couldn't get tickets on the website. Waited for ages in the poxy queue thing, was told after eventually being let in that they couldn't find seats for me.
Well that's pathetic. Season ticket holders should be getting first window of priority. They've paid the most this season, loyalty points system is ****.
People who bother to travel to away games deserve tickets the most, but sorry for people who live local to away game and it may be their only chance to see Saints. The last few years were the peak for travelling fans. I suppose less well supported sides may make more tickets available.
So long trips to Carlisle and Hartlepool in League One don't count for anything, but going to Premier League champions City automatically puts them ahead in the loyalty points system?
Well that falls under the definition of going to the most games. They should have included last season
Why Last season, why not league 1, the 1976 cup final, the Ian Branfoot era? Seriously, the points system is a fair one & will work itself out over the season; the people who go to the most games will get priority - if it was Norwich away do you think there would have been so many complaints today? By the time other "Big" games come round, those who've been to Cat C games (ST holders included) will be way out ahead for priority booking. This game has just happened to come early in the season.
