If you sign in via official club site you can establish your priority window now. Based on what the club have said so far (thanks for some information at least) there must be at least 4 priority windows as a friend has done this and told me his priority is '4', not sure why that is as STH this and last season - it also says max 10 tickets per transaction UT ALSO says 1 per STH etc so bit misleading. I cant imagine a STH or 1901 can purchase 10 tickets as there wouldnt be any left for general sale then

So, to be clear, if you’re in 1 but want to sit with someone who is in 3, will you have to wait for the 3rd window to open or can you buy theirs in 1 window if they’re friends and family?!

"When tickets are available, they will first go on sale to 2022/23 season ticket holders and 2022/23 1901 Club members based on priority windows (1 ticket per person), followed by 2022/23 MyAlbion+ members based on priority windows (1 ticket per person). Subject to availability guest windows will open after this.

Priority windows are based on season ticket holder points, and members points respectively."

So does this mean:

Top of the tree STH 22/23 and 1901 there are certain categories within the above so based on points taking above example it might be for example
Priority 300+
Priority 200-299
Priority 101-199
Priority less than 100 points
etc?
So I assume it'll be no more than a day for each priority to book before they remain open and the next priority opens?

That can have advantages as not everyone will jam the lines/web site at once
Disadvantage you have to hold out for friends in lower priorities f want purchase all together

You will have to wait until window 3. I suspect a lot of people will be in this position. We have 34k tickets and 23/24k STH so even if you wait it out you can still sit your group together

if they are ALSO STH & if you are prepared to accept your perhaps not chosen category/section of stadium.

I assume you get allocated a section not actually select the seats?

True, but the choice of seats will be much reduced. But I don't think there's another way of doing it.
Im surprised given there is enough seats for every STH and 1901 there is a need to have priority windows within this as it does make it harder to get fans together though I can see a advantage in th eohone lines and web site may be able to handle enquiries better when spread out and anyone that's had these issues with Ticketmaster etc will understand that well.

I am surprised there are four windows for STH but looking at the schedule for the City game the first four windows were all opened on the first two days of sales so, yes it is an inconvenience but it is a relatively minor one.
 
will i have to sign in for myself and also my son to buy 2 tickets or can I do it all under my login since he is a F&F?
It will be like any normal game. Sign in your own and you'll be able to buy one for your son (assuming he has the points).

It also sounds like we'll only be able to buy ten tickets in one go (assuming all ten are in the right Priority bucket)

needs to be staggered a bit otherwise you will get 23,000 at 9am , system wouldnt cope. I imagine the windows will be half a day / day max

34,000 , we should just about sell out

It coped fine last time. There'll be a queueing system that sits in front of the ticketing system protecting it from overload.

I guess this approach gives the most loyal (most attending) fans first dibs on tickets of their choice, whilst everyone who is a STH knows they will still have plenty of choice when their time comes. People can choose whether to wait to sit together or buy separately.
