An Away Move Posted 1 June 2017 Share Posted 1 June 2017 Anyone spot the new 'ticket exchange' feature that the club will be making available for sth next season? I take that to mean you'll be able to sell your ticket on if you can't attend. A good development? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take that to mean you'll be able to sell your ticket on if you can't attend. I assume so, but details are yet to be released. It's a good idea but I'm not sure how successful it will be for people anyway, given that the only games where demand usually outstrips supply is for the 'top 6' games. I doubt the club will want to encourage re-sale of ST seats, for say Watford, when they will only receive £17.50 (after the other £17.50 has been passed back to the ST holder), when they can sell a non-ST seat for £35.

rn9013 Posted 1 June 2017 Share Posted 1 June 2017 On a separate note, surely there is someone ITK who can let us know what the renewal rate is looking like as it stands?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, the majority of the one's then went on sale to golds were due to bans after they got caught touting the Everton game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah-good point! That makes sense. I didn't realise the club had actually taken action on as many as that (I'm glad they did though)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, I was told 200 had action taken against them, which included multi year bans and tickets revoked and as they had touted there was no appeal process. There are articles related to it in last years papers, but doesn't name a figure, but I was sent the official figure last year, but can't be arsed to trawl back through 12 months of what's app messages to find it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done to the club. Those who tried to profit by selling their ticket for that game and in doing so breaching the terms and conditions of their ticket have no grounds to complain about it.

Anything that shows you're alive is frowned on and they mostly sit there more like a court tribunal than a partisan group of football fans. Only sit there now as an unavoidable last option. Not sure it's any more pleasant than an outside loo. Have 2 seats in block H east stand this season having moved from North Family stand. Atmos fine where we are at SK1 end of the block and Union FS closeby. Was thinking of moving to J block Monday for better view and these East stand dead posts worry me. Cant be that bad 1 block along ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cant be that bad 1 block along ? Mate, I'm in H1 in a seat right next to J block. I go with my young son and daughter, so sit there because the view is fantastic. I'm about half way up, but even further back it is a great view. You do lose the atmosphere to some degree as you are caught between away fans/L1 and SK1, and obviously don't feel a part of that as much. It does occasionally warm up around me, but it's at big moments, which we've had a fair few of over the last couple of seasons. I really don't have a problem with it, but as always, the people who sit around you are all important. And there are mostly good people around me with no moaners or football bores! I go to most aways with my son too, and the contrast can be quite marked in terms of home and away atmosphere, as would be expected. But again it depends on the people around you and your view. I guess it depends then on what is most important to you, but from my point of view the East Stand (J and H blocks) are not as bad as lots of people make out.
