[Albion] FA Cup Semi-Final v Man Utd - 4:30pm, Sunday 23rd April

[Joey Jo Jo Jr. Shabadoo]

Thought I'd chance my arm, even though I'm priority 3 at 2pm this afternoon. I can still get all the way through to selecting seats, but when assigning a friend from my list, they're all greyed out and un-selectable. I'm assuming I can select them once my window opens later?

You don’t assign guest tickets to anyone, they remain in your name.

 

[Greavsey]

What I don’t understand is why the club have opened this up in the original priority order when those in P1,2,3 have already had the chance to buy for guests. Anyone understand this?

 

[brighton_tom]

So how many extras did we get?

2,500+

Think it's a bit silly that I'm even allowed in the queue if I can't get any extra tickets yet.

 

[brighton_tom]

Have United been given extra?

Because it sold out in T2....

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

I assume Utd got a similar amount of extra tickets

 

[Icy Gull]

Because it sold out in T2....

Within minutes of T2 opening

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

For those so desperate to see the Albion there's nearly 290 tickets remaining to see us at Forest

If a miracle occurs and someone can get 3 seats together that they don't need for themselves, myself & jnr's would be happy to take them off of you.

We're going to Wembley!!!! So excited already!!!

Yes. This should be the case

 

[BN41Albion]

2,356 tickets left, mainly the £80 lower tier central blocks.

Wtf, I had to get upper tier as lower tier had sold out when I got tickets. Where have these tickets come from!?!

Pretty sure they're the ones by the dugouts that usually sponsors get, but looks like they're released to us

 

[drew]

Where did blocks 142 and 124 come from. I'm up in the gods with my kids and yet once again the best seats in Wembley go on sale to those who buy last!!! Entire blocks for sale.

That's not true though because when they first went on sale you could by anywhere in the Albion allocation of 34k.

 

[Mellotron]

Sorry if answered, can someone help me relatively quickly?

Trying to buy 2 tickets for my parents - found 2 together, have moved one into my Dad's name no problem, the other is staying in my name (ie as a guest of a STH) but it's saying I have too many in my name?

Someone could want to buy for another game, a home game etc, so the queue is there to control traffic flow on the site rather than only let people in who are eligible to buy semi final tickets.

 

[Napper]

So how many extras did we get?

there were 2.5k left after it being open for 25 mins so got to be at least 3k

 

[worthingseagull]

Note to self for next years cup semi final - wait until fully sold out then buy the best seats in the house once we get our extra allocation

If P3 have been allowed to buy for guests, that's the first I've heard this, and I most certainly can't do this until my window opens at 2pm. P3 will have the first chance to by guest tickets this afternoon, I suspect it'll be carnage going by the comments in this thread as there seems to be a lot of P3's waiting to pounce.
