That's what I don't get. I'm likely not going to get one because I've not been for 2 years thanks to DC. But I'm going to miss out to someone who has been bought one by a mate who has a season ticket who might never have been to a football match before!

I paid for a membership for my daughter so she would be able to get a ticket for the game. Turns out i could have bought her one anyway.

Maybe the upcoming ticket prices being lower than season ticket holders have paid is being offset slightly by giving them advance purchasing of derby tickets. Messaging is a bit off for this one though whetever the intention was

Fair enough.

This situation stopped me getting a ticket for the Brighton playoff game - season ticket holders buying for their non-attending mates.

Didn't Brighton make TTP? Naturally, if you don't attend many games and don't hold a membership, you are at a massive disadvantage - that's just how loyality points and memberships work.

You can't have attended that many yourself if you didn't have enough TTP for the Brighton game. Pretty sure my dad got one with less than 50 TTP (which is 5 games or less over two seasons). He's a proper fair weather fan (after 50 years as a STH!)!! 

My memory may be failing me, as it was almost 10 years ago, but I went to about 10 games that year and still couldn’t get a ticket.  That year there were many more offers on so I only had to pay the ridiculous full price once.  If I remember correctly membership was even more than it is now!

And to be clear, I’m absolutely fine with loyalty being rewarded with priority for tickets. The question is should that extend to additional home tickets ahead of members and general sale?

Fair enough mate. Think memberships were well priced that season - was the season after when the previous owner hiked them; on the back of a massive influx of membership sales for the Play Off Final if memory serves me correctly.

I guess STH's don't get much back for the money they chuck in and crap they endure, so it's difficult to begrudge them an extra ticket they can give to a partner/kid for the big games.

One of few season ticket perks. We should have more with how much we fork out

As a season ticket holder for 30 years it's not something I ever thought about before! I had my ticket so it never bothered me. 

Now I'm on the outside looking in somewhat.

8422 - at an average price of probably £35, that's a good £80k or so into the club's coffers today, just from this.

Ironically, November may end up as one of the highest monthly revenues in the club's history.

Right now, you’ll have to give it a while to update your account, it took mine about an hour to update and put the pigs tickets on the Home Screen to buy.
