But surely 'just' selling 500 is exactly what it was intended for? It's allowing those who have gone every week for a few years to get first dibs but with the majority being available to others. I don't think they've nailed it, they are never going to first time, and I understand your frustration around your kids situation, but it's never going to work perfectly and I am hopeful you will all get to go together. Under every situation there is always going to be someone just on the outskirts.
I can buy today, my 13 year old daughter tomorrow , my youngest 10 year old Thursday..
I don't need to say anymore , just look at how ridiculous that is
Have you tr
Have you made any attempt to contact the club about your situation? It's all well and good moaning about it on here, but that's not going to resolve anything. As I posted earlier this just might not have been a scenario that occurred to them, and it might be that they try to resolve your situation by averaging the points between the 3 of you if you let them know of your situation. It might mean that you fall a bit down the pecking order yourself but in this Sunderland scenario you would probably have been able to buy tickets for the 3 of you on Wednesday, which is surely better than your current situation. Of course if the club choose not to give you a fair hearing, then by all means slag them off!
There are alot of pissed of fans in the same boat .. I've talked to the club , the woman at the ticket office they just speel out the same nonsense.
Each match will be different , you have to wait blah blah ..
We would already have sold out by now , instead we are at 500
This will be a one off. When Millwall and Hull come around there will be no issues, and I reckon this game will make ST holders on Friday.
As for the allocation, we absolutely must respond with an equivalent allocation to retain any self-respect.
Out of interest, on the can't buy without an adult point, if you were to buy a ticket today could your daughter add on when her windows in or does you buying today mean she can't buy anymore?I've gone every week for a few years? But I have to wait to get my daughter who has 60 less points and can't buy without an adult (key point) a ticket , she goes everywhere too

so all the s/t 's during lockdown, Ricoh return phase 1, and this year count for fuck all?
bunch of cunts!!
btw don't forget your bottles of piss and bags of shit to hoy
Also people with 500-999 points for this game at least get same priority as first time ST holdersI can buy today, my 13 year old daughter tomorrow , my youngest 10 year old Thursday..
I don't need to say anymore , just look at how ridiculous that is
It might be a bit convoluted, but if there was an adult going with kids could they link the accounts and average out the points? So, say, 1500, 1400 and 1000 would be 1300? Then they can buy tickets in that priority window.Surely if a group of people want to go and you don't want to buy unless everyone can go you wait until the sales window that covers the person with the lowest points total. If you start saying families or groups can all book with the person with the most points we'll be back to people abusing the system and passing tickets on to their mates.
Of course its not perfect and I'm sure Pete can pass on constructive criticism or suggestions on how to improve things but I'm not sure they'll take on board things designed to change the rules to suit individuals personal circumstances.
The fans wanted this. They have been bleating on for years that season ticket holders got first dibs.
So now you have your new system,you can now bleat about this.
Be careful what you wish for.
pretty much this, if had to pile on to ticketmaster at 9am it was only fair that the tory cunts did as wellPeople wanted a system where people weren't given special allocations because they are in a special little twat gang and that is still going on
I have 960 points my mate has 0 points and has his first ST and yet he has the same priority window as me. I've gone from Phase 1 last season to phase 4 this season and i missed 1 game home or away all season.
Don’t get this tit for tat nonsense.This will be a one off. When Millwall and Hull come around there will be no issues, and I reckon this game will make ST holders on Friday.
As for the allocation, we absolutely must respond with an equivalent allocation to retain any self-respect.
Don’t get this tit for tat nonsense.
Give them 6k and say thank you for the money and the 3 points. Sunderland’s travelling support, whilst impressive in size, is pitiful in terms of noise.It would make very little difference if they had 1.5k or 6k.
This is a fair point. They were shite away at St Andrews, don't actually think they sung a single song aside from those about Jimmy and a box.
Even worse at the Ricoh that time.
They are really shit fans
What's the point then? If you just going to sit on your hands and be quiet all game.Amazing numbers though. One of the best home and away for that. Just not great with noise.
FOR THIS GAME ONLYI have 960 points my mate has 0 points and has his first ST and yet he has the same priority window as me. I've gone from Phase 1 last season to phase 4 this season and i missed 1 game home or away all season.
for any game that is nonsense and this does fix any of issues raised last yearFOR THIS GAME ONLY
I've gone every week for a few years? But I have to wait to get my daughter who has 60 less points and can't buy without an adult (key point) a ticket , she goes everywhere too

What did they want then ? 100s of different ideas from fans,what are they supposed to do.No they didn't, this isn't what they asked for.
This comes because of the Bournemouth game.
People from Warwickshire shouldn't be allowed home or awayWhat did they want then ? 100s of different ideas from fans,what are they supposed to do.
Fans that only do away games,(the ones that put no money into the club) think they should be first.
Season ticket holders think they should be first,because they feel they financially support the club.
So which is it ?
What’s the point?What's the point then? If you just going to sit on your hands and be quiet all game.
