I am sure that this is a question that has been answered in the past by many. Son and Ben have their ST in Upper West. Next season another son wants to go to watch The Albion being 5 years old and sit with dad and brother. Obviously they will have to move their seats to another stand but what about the waiting list? Do they bypass it or will they have to register him now in preparation.?

You need to register him now and then be moved as a '3' when he gets to the top of the list.

No chance of getting a new season ticket next year - thousands already ahead on the waiting list.

So how do they accommodate young future fans like Jack when they reach the age of being able and wanting to go to football with dad. I would have thought that children of STH would have a priority on the list.

What happens if you have a season ticket that was bought for one member of the family, but is now used permanently by another family member. If you ask to change names will that be an issue?
Be easier to just change said person's name by depol

I think the club very much take the 'tough titties' approach on this one.

Nope - my son, who also reached the age of wanting to go more than every now and again, joined the waiting list last season and is thousands back also.

What I was told in February:

"We now have a waiting list for season tickets. If your son is interested in joining up as a STH I would strongly recommend buying the YS+ membership with a numbered spot on the ST waiting list now. Over 1,000 people are now on the waiting list so I’d get in quickly!"

They join the waiting list like all other future fans, and get match by match tickets while they wait.

But how would that be fair on those that have been on the waiting list? The waiting list has been on going for a while, should have joined it at the start.

Wouldn’t it make sense to have a separate waiting list for the ‘family’ area?

Not sure there needs to be.

1. A seat (or, more likely a couple of seats) become available in the Family Stand.
2. Seat(s) are offered to the first person/people waiting.
3. Those people say "no, thanks, we want another stand"
4. Seat(s) get offered to the next person on the list.

Repeat until seats are taken.

I'm not sure if it's been mentioned on here before but is there a possibility to expand the ground more...? [emoji57]
