As posted way up this thread I went to buy my 7-y-o a ticket, saw it was £28 and thought "nah". Given his level of interest, it's just too much, at least for me.

PM en route. You can be my "guest".

For Manchester City there is no general sale date, where "general sale" means having a prior Amex purchase history. One would guess this is to try and minimise the number of away fans buying in Albion stands and will be repeated for other "big" games. For West Brom and Newcastle, there are...

That's not correct, at least not in all cases. I can buy a STH guest ticket that goes to an unidentified person. The club will have no idea who that person is - all they'll know is that I bought it. If I try to allocate that same ticket to various people in my F&F list - people who have been...

I think you're missing the point. When you buy a "STH guest" ticket it's not allocated to a person beyond the STH themselves. This flies completely in the face of the club's previous "it's really important we know who is sitting where for security/safety reasons" communication to fans. If you...

I intentionally didn't say I had to re-queue because I wasn't sure if I did or not, as that time I had to switch to do something else for a few minutes. So, although it's positive to hear that you didn't have to re-queue, it's still the case that functionality has taken an inexplicable step...

Systems designed and/or maintained by those who have no real idea of the use cases of those who have to use them. This morning I joined the Leicester queue (which also coincided with sales windows opening to a group of supporters for home games). I queued and waited, queued and waited and...

Good point. Where games are likely to sell out, people will have the choice of: - Buying early via a STH mate, but getting no loyalty 'recognition' for doing so, or - Gambling to wait to buy in the general sale and getting loyalty points Strikes me as a strange position to put people in. Is...

It's a bit difficult if, say, you're in the WSU and the ticket you have bought for a guest is in the ESL. And regardless of the faux concerns on security and safety, I'm very surprised the club do not wish to capture details of the guests for future marketing purposes.

So, despite the club repeatedly telling us it is imperative for safety/security reasons they know who has which ticket and is in which seat, are you saying that you do NOT have to assign the "season ticket guests" tickets to anyone else, and that they remain in the name of the ST holder?

Others have reported that membership buying rights come into effect 14 days after purchase.

First three home Premier League fixtures on sale to Season Ticket Holders from 9am on Tuesday 18 July Our first three home games of the 2017/18 Premier League season go on sale this Tuesday 18 July to season-ticket holders wishing to bring an additional guest. Tickets for the visits of...

You can't get to that point if you don't have the right to buy yourself. So, as a STH I can not buy a ticket for Manchester City so I do not have the 'Buy' button so can't get to the bit where I could choose a seat and assign it to my son. (This annoying change in functionality has been...

Are you actually logged in as the bronze member? I can't buy for my son when logged in as me (STH) but can if logged in as him (YS+).

I'll be the best Dad ever if I buy him a big bag of sweets and let him play on the iPad for the 90 minutes. Which is why I'm hesitating!

I must admit I have a ticket in my basket for my 7-y-o but I'm thinking "£28? Really?"

You're sounding a bit het up chap. I'm largely on your side. Last season i could login and buy a ticket for my son. It seems that this season I can't. That seems a bit silly. Albion and ticketing continues to have touches of farce about it - it's like the old Albion is in there below the...

Yes, I believe so from what I recall. As I posted above, in my mind there's not a significantly strong case for this having to be available other than the parent/child scenario.

In my post above, I had started to type a line about the drawback with the current approach is that I couldn't buy for a F&F person who is eligible for a ticket but I deleted it. In most cases, I think if person A isn't eligible to buy a ticket but person B is, it should probably be person B...
