    [Albion] Albion Fans vs Ticket Window ****Official Bun Fight Thread****

    I think you're both misunderstanding slightly. There will be a group of people, and I imagine @Arthur knows a few of them, who will happily travel to Marseille on a jolly and have little/no interest in going to the game itself. They'll know a few who are going - friends and friends of friends -...

    I'd exchanged emails with the club this morning on something, and this came up. It is expected that any returns will be re-listed for sale, but it may be quite late on.

    Tier 1 is only ever a bunfight to decide which seat you'll get, it's never a bunfight to see if you'll actually get one. The points level is intentionally set so that if you are in Tier 1, you are guaranteed a seat if you want one. If more people with high points levels had registered then the...

    We know most of it is true... Tiers 1 and 2 for Marseille were guaranteed a seat. Tiers 3 and below were depending on availability. Tier 1 for Ajax was guaranteed a seat. Tiers 2 and below were depending on availability. It's my guess as to why the club made the change as we all saw Tier 1...

    If you're comparing Marseille and Ajax then you have to compare Tiers 1 and 2 for Marseille with Tier 1 at Ajax. The club divided the "guaranteed a seat if you want one" into two tiers for Marseille, giving the very top points holders the pick of the seats. My guess is they merged these tiers...

    Demand for AEK will be a lot lower than for Ajax... - More expensive to get to and/or requiring more time away from home - Many of those who just wanted to see Albion play in Europe once anywhere/any time will have done that. - We could be Played 2, Lost 2 by then, so some may be initially put...

    The club did change the name some time back, presumably for that very reason. I see "Season Ticket Points". I'm assuming non-STH see "Member Points" or similar.

    Agreed - I posted this on the main ticket thread. The club essentially had two options... - Very narrow tiers after Tier 1 which would give very few people a high chance of getting a ticket. - A broad Tier 2 which gave a lot of people a small chance of getting a ticket. They chose the second...

    All I can say is I intentionally didn't choose the back row, knowing it was top of screen so the first place most eyes would settle. But when it comes down to it, it just comes down to luck in reaching that BUY button before someone else clicks on the seat you already have selected.

    It wasn't. In block 417 I had over 200 seats to chose from. If they were in baskets already, they'd not have shown up. You had to select a seat and click BUY in a few seconds or someone else would have nabbed it, and from there you were likely stuffed as you would then need to deselect that...

    Unfortunately, I think some of those who are less familiar with the ticketing system than others didn't know they had to click "BUY" ASAP after selecting their seat in order to protect it. Until you do that, it can be poached by others.

    Absolutely, this, yes. I had the screen anchored on the page with the Ajax button in the middle of the screen and banged refresh. It jumped from "SOLD OUT" to "BUY" and I just sped through... - Selected biggest block - Selected random seat in an unpopular area - high and on the side. -...
