According to the leaflet "Your seat your stadium for life" sent to people inviting them to a presentation, it states " By purchasing a PSL the rights to that seat becomes yours for the life of the stadium - provided you renew your season ticket each year - but most importantly it allows you to pass it on or bequeath it to family and friends in years to come. It also provides holders with a proper mechanism for the legal trading of season tickets between other supporters ..........The club will launch a special trading web page where PSL holders who wish to trade their seats can list them for sale at any time at any price they want".
Can you say with your connections, assuming the season ticket is a swipe plastic card (with or without a cash credit on it for a poetential cashless Amex stadium), you can only legally trade your season ticket for a single game on the clubs web page, if you have a PSL? This would allow the club to disable your own swipe card for the game in question, and issue a new swipe card to the person you have traded your ticket to for a small transaction fee (hopefully without the cash credit on the card)?
If someone just loans, or hands over their season ticket swipe plastic card for a single game and for a payment in a private transcation (that could be illegal under the ticket terms and conditions), presumably the STH has to rely on the plastic card being handed back for the next game?

The 1,000 seats being kept back in the WSL nearest the north stand for match-by-match sales was news to me - I didn't know it was specifically going to be this area.
Mind you, I didn't even know carers go free at Withdean so maybe I'm not particularly in the loop with this stuff.

Yes. That is what will happen. If the person buying the ticket is a first timer they will get a paper ticket and a swipe card will be issued shortly thereafter. If they already have a swipe card then the ticket gets cancelled on yours and transferred to theirs. Info from Ken Brown/Martin Perry at club forums

I agree that is what will happen if you permanently transfer your season ticket. What happens though if you just want to sell your ticket on for the one game that you can't make?

Fair play. The WSL North hold back was mentioned at a presentation I attended. I think I also read it on here somewhere.
We need an Amex wiki with all the info in one place!!!

Exactly the same procedure. One match at a time or multiples.

For the odd game, the club are organising a ticket exchange I gather (whether its a PSL seat or not will make no difference)
The Large One
Who's Next?
Ken Brown did say on the Roar that they 'are looking at' methods for using a Ticket Exchange in answer to a direct question about Brighton having an 'Arsenal-type' Ticket Exchange.

Is that right? My understanding was that the 1000 tickets being held back were for a wing in the east stand closest to the South stand to facilitate providing away clubs with a larger allocation as per the rules in the cup competitions. It would not make sense to have away fans in the south and then another section next to the north stand in the west lower. Or does this mean there will be two areas on a match by match basis?
Around about now then?
(I was just trying to find if PSLs have the same right to transfer a ticket match by match as a 1901er does)

I would assume not. The below surely refers to the whole ST being sold on...?

Did the PSL scheme take off? When I purchased my season ticket at the open day I was sold the idea of a PSL by an ( Australian? ) chap. I noticed after a couple of my season ticket payments were taken that the cost of my PSL had not been taken. When I contacted the club I was told that the PSL membership was not as popular as they thought and that they had not started the scheme.
Indeed it does, and I knew that bit.
But I couldn't recall whether the PSL comes with built-in match-by-match transferability. I've found nothing to suggest it does.
Fair enough - then my response to Attila on the other thread was wrong... lucky I caveated it...!
Apologies for not knowing the facts either but my brothers both have PSLs in the North Stand and read something from the club this summer that gave them the impression they could ‘legally’ pass on their ticket to friends and family. Unfortunately, I can’t recall the exact source but think it was something written on club website.
I'd also take that seat-for-life bit with a pinch of salt. 1901ers are not guaranteed their seats for European games, should we qualify, and my wheelchair bound father was turfed out of his space to add more seats to the directors area this season.

Odd that this (important) caveat hasn't been mentioned at all amongst any of Barbers numerous and regular darkly veiled threats to all of us about the crime of passing our tickets on then.
Actually, this season, they've put any European games back into the ticket, having taken them out a season or 2 ago! Weird, huh? Moot point though...
My reading of it is that the PSL allows you to permanently transfer it to friends or family. "Bequeath" also implies "...on your death"!
You can also sell it using the club's transfer page. Such a page does exist, but last time I looked, there were none for sale.
Like Bozza, having looked closer, I can see nothing that allows holders to transfer it on a game by game basis...
