I'm not sure if it is still the case, but I thought there were some regulations that said a certain percentage of tickets should be available as pay on the day, but it might just be that it is a limit on number of season tickets and percentage is for just match to match (so most go to members with loyalty pts) ?
I think there is a certain percentage limit on season Tickets, the remainder to go on general sale to supporters with History, when i lived down in Bournemouth i tried to get a ticket to watch them against Wolves but they would not let me have one due to the fact i didnt have a history and the game was about 3 thousand short of capacity. I dont think pay on the day, at the gate even exists now.
It does in lower leagues but most clubs now will make it previous booking history etc if the away allocation has sold out and they fear away fans going in the home ends (lets face it it worked perfectly in your example), so realistically yeah its never going to happen in the prem
yes think its now just limit on season tickets. I guess when regulations were drawn up most non season ticket sales would have been pay on the day, but things have now moved on with memberships and loyalty points.
got my welcome pack last week. (Not the one with the snood which I think is just those who renewed last year), but pin badge, had and lucky socks, so maybe just some things delayed ?
Yeah thats what I got last year obviously they’ve still got **** loads over as are giving those to nee members but a snood & flag to renewing members do guessing its just the new packs that are delayed.
Is it one of them things Tevez kind of made famous? Tbf it might get a bit of use in the winter suppose no point having it before october anyway
Seems like your question for a £5 discount was listened to pacamac..
It'll only let you buy if assigned to a supporter number that matches the age range.
I thought it was that..cheers for the info
Last season? Bloody hell you was lucky
I’ll be renewing my membership in the next few days.
Last season when they sent me the free welcome gift, Wolves had put the full price of the membership on the customs declaration. Because of this the Norwegian Post wanted to charge me local VAT (25%) and handling fee (£21 in total) for the free gift. I refused to pay and the box was returned. A few weeks later they tried to send it again, and this time there was no charges. Strange practice by Wolves to put a value of £35 on the free gift.
I believe so, yes.
Yeah socks
Yes definitely, some would say its you're only hope (but that's not strictly true some games make it past the membership 100 points to general sale but very few.
Yeah the hat was sound wore it a fair bit throughout the winter.
Sign up, get to some early unfashionable cup games and grow your points.

I made sure I went to the first three games the following season!
Thanks for sharing this information Lytham What an experience you have had over recent seasons!I bought my first membership in the championship-winning season. I hadn't bothered before as I could easily get to any game I wanted but they had a deal on that made it worthwhile (IIRC one free game, 10% ticket cash and two or three games for £5 of ticket cash).
In the first premier season I renewed and, with my 190 points, I thought tickets would be easy to get but I made the fatal mistake of going away a lot in August/September and missing the first 3 home games so, when the points were subsequently reset, I was back on 100 points behind all those now on 130. By buying tickets the minute they went on sale to those at my points level I was able to get tickets for the next few games in the quadrant but not in the South Bank where I wanted to be. I then became aware of the sale of the returned tickets so I started buying those but it did mean keeping open the ticket site on my browser and continually refreshing until tickets became available. Looking back, I sometimes spent up to two days refreshing in excess of 1,000 times a day whilst I "worked" and on my mobile during the evening. The process of these tickets going up for sale must have been automatic as they would appear at all times of the day and night and people were obviously doing the same as me as I would see a ticket become available only five seconds after I'd previously checked and the ticket would have gone before I could click on it. God that was fun
So, to you new members out there, or people thinking of joining, there are ways to get tickets and build up your points.
I did get a little bit obsessed... To put it into context though I have a second membership, nominally my son's but family and friends all use it, and most of them won't go in the South Bank so for most games it was a simple process of buying two tickets in the quadrant or Steve Bull Lower. It was just the games that I was going to on my own that I went through the crazy process of buying a returned ticket in the South Bank.
Have you decided yet? ...if its Yes.....which stand are you in?
not everyone who went in 19/20 only those who went to the most games, they haven't stated how many points got you an invite. and membership plus only gets you priority for 6 games and only if you pay the extra £20 for it
Cheers, not seen the detail. So in total they want £55 to give you the option to first choice for 6 games where you probably have to pay for the expensive side seats. I can see why people would baulk at that to be fair.
