[Albion] Season Ticket Waiting list

[Paulie Gualtieri]

Did the 8,500 waiting list really disappear overnight?

Instead, I thought that those suddenly offered seats around May, were prepared to take the odd single seat not in pairs?

I took a pair in the north in April and had been on the waiting list for 2 years. There were plenty of pairs and big groupings through out

Take the point about the waiting list still existing it’s probably a combination of existing not renewing (covid) and those on the waiting list deferring for a year (covid again)

Might be worth waiting to see if half-season tickets go on sale around the turn of the year. That way you may see some football for your money

I thought the year’s deferral might’ve played a part. I did that a couple of seasons back, to wait for a better pick.

.....to the current PL, European & World champions.

Get a grip!

We made 3 shocking errors that gifted them their three goals. Aside from that we matched them and for periods of the game were the better side.

I thought I was the ultimate pessimist but if you can't see the positives in our display last night then there may be no hope.

GOLF, there is hope, even on scales like these

I could be wrong, but it’s hard to envisage 8,500 people overnight all throwing away their patient waiting, as a temporary pandemic hit the UK, when within the 8,500 would be many folk not in vulnerable age groups and/or those with a positive outlook. Simply staying on the list to wait and see, would be no burden to anyone.

More likely a combination of people on the waitlist deciding not to proceed, and a much larger swathe of existing STHs deciding not to renew - boredom with the PL, economic situation/job losses etc during Covid etc. Suspect the non-renewing number was much higher than normal.

It will be interesting to see what happens to ST prices and 'one-off' match prices once crowds are allowed back in stadiums.

I'be bought one-off tickets in the past but in the current economic climate EPL football will be at the very bottom of my list of discretionary spending unless the match day prices are significantly reduced. I guess whether they are or whether they aren't will largely be dictated by market forces but in the meantime the first team squad will still pass go and collect 20, 30, 40 grand a week each for just about being good enough. Strange world.
