    [Albion] Tickets Remaining for FA Cup Semi Final ***About 200 LEFT ON SALE***

    No (if I were the club), as a member you would have benefits in the future related to the club. Just suppose, and with a lot of wishful thinking, the Albion make it to the final. Straightaway those new members will have an advantage in purchasing tickets over non-members. With regard to...

    [Albion] Tickets Remaining for FA Cup Semi Final ***About 200 LEFT ON SALE***

    Well put. This whole venture is new territory for both club and fans. In my opinion I think the club have handled this quite well, but as with any new venture, there are problems and mistakes that are made along the way. The important thing is to identify and rectify them as soon as possible. I...

    [Albion] Tickets Remaining for FA Cup Semi Final ***About 200 LEFT ON SALE***

    I’ve just checked the club site regarding ticket allocation. It states that from Thursday 28th March 2018/19 YS and Bronze Members - 0 points. Up to 2 extra tickets. If that is the case then by paying the fee and enrolling as a new member you are able to purchase 3 tickets. I think I’ve got...

    That may be but at least we have a whole programme of events on offer, so no complaints from me.

    [Albion] Tickets Remaining for FA Cup Semi Final ***About 200 LEFT ON SALE***

    In the 1960s going to away games wasn’t a big deal apart from local derbies or grudge matches - I seem to remember naughtiness at the Goldstone when Portsmouth and Luton came a’calling. So, I would imagine Fulham wouldn’t have had many of their fans at the match in 1958 when we had our record...

    [Albion] Tickets Remaining for FA Cup Semi Final ***About 200 LEFT ON SALE***

    I would imagine that you will only be able to do that in the same block as designated on your ticket, i.e. from cheaper seats in the back of the upper tier to the more expensive ones at the front. I suppose it also depends on how diligent the ticket police are on the day.

    548 and 549 - is that where the bluds are at, innit?

    [Albion] Tickets Remaining for FA Cup Semi Final ***About 200 LEFT ON SALE***

    In a one off process like this (who knows, maybe to be repeated in a few weeks time!) I think the club have handled this quite well. I bagged two tickets with our 2 STs and loyalty points on the first day. Another two I grabbed yesterday in the ST plus guests category - all in the same area. The...

    That’s nice. Have you got an executive box?

    [Albion] Tickets Remaining for FA Cup Semi Final ***About 200 LEFT ON SALE***

    I reckon we’ll sell out tomorrow. Having visited the City fans forum it seems they’re struggling to shift many at all. Figures of only 18,000 sold have been bandied about. The more optimistic guesses think they’ll sell 25,000. I’m not sure, on police advice/elf and safety that we will be...

    [Albion] Tickets Remaining for FA Cup Semi Final ***About 200 LEFT ON SALE***

    But they are a homespun club with all their fans in Manchester. All the City fans will tell you that. Their “brand” does not travel, despite whatever lengths their owners are doing to change that. It will be a long time before they reach the world wide adoration of the likes of Liverpool, Man...

    [Albion] Tickets Remaining for FA Cup Semi Final ***About 200 LEFT ON SALE***

    That’s a bit harsh. The amount of Chelsea tickets sold is about 2,500. It’s a rearranged fixture, from having been scheduled on a Sunday to being moved to a Tuesday night. On top of this the Albion will be playing an average of two games per week during April, so the cost for attending every...

    [Albion] Tickets Remaining for FA Cup Semi Final ***About 200 LEFT ON SALE***

    Greed or exploiting the market place? One man’s meat, another man’s poison and all that. I must admit to being a bit confused with the structure of selling the tickets. Still, the good thing is that I got the extra tickets today that I required, and in the same areas as my original choice. All...

    [Albion] Tickets Remaining for FA Cup Semi Final ***About 200 LEFT ON SALE***

    Looks like only about 4,400 left to snaffle up. Not bad going for a little tin pot club with no history and a fan base of glory hunting JCLs! :albion2:

    [Albion] Tickets Remaining for FA Cup Semi Final ***About 200 LEFT ON SALE***

    Believe me, there were a few day trippers and glory hunters that night. I used to work in a pub part time and a family of four used to come in on a regular basis. Knowing I was a dyed in the wool, hard core Albion fan they asked me about going to the game. Have you been before I asked. No, never...

    [Albion] Tickets Remaining for FA Cup Semi Final ***About 200 LEFT ON SALE***

    So where do you draw the line? Hopefully, by going through all the tiers - ST holders with high number of loyalty points, next ST holders with lower number of points, then all the membership schemes and so on and so forth - then all deserving fans will have the opportunity to purchase a ticket...

    [Albion] Tickets Remaining for FA Cup Semi Final ***About 200 LEFT ON SALE***

    Thanks for that. As I’ve got an ST in the West Upper I was a bit concerned about how far the Wembley upper tier was from the action. Luckily, me and grandson have bagged front row seats in Block 530. Well chuffed! :albion2:
