Oh - I misunderstood your original point, sorry. Yep, I entirely agree - if demand is 1600, and the allocations are 1500 or 3000, they’ll get 1500. Presumably there is a point where they’d buy the 3k, but I’ve no idea where that point is...
I don’t think so. Southampton goes on sale to all members next Tuesday and general sale next Thursday. If tier 1/2 folk don’t buy early enough, then tix will be sold to those other folk instead.
Two things:
1 That's an entirely reasonable and timely response to the issues raised - well done, club.
2 No way that Jenny wrote all that - thanks, PB.
Would only work if they somehow stopped fans who hadn’t pre-registered buying the tickets when they went on sale, so it wouldn’t be exactly the same system as last year, except in those situations where demand outstripped maximum supply - when last year’s system would work fine.
Also, for those...
It was raised at the away fans' forum with TB that it would be a good idea if, as well as choosing a block (if booking early enough), fans could choose front or back seats (standing vs sitting). TB agreed, and said that he'd talk to the ticketing people.
That went well then.
If the club...
