I’ve never been able to buy on behalf of my son who’s a Matchday member, I have to log in as him. If I use my ST account the games on sale are blocked, even though we’re strongly linked. Yet he can transfer my ticket from his account and add/drop cup schemes etc for me. It’s always been weird.Are we sure about this? The ticket site says tickets are on sale exclusively for Matchday and Junior Members. It isn’t allowing seasoncard holders to buy tickets on behalf of others even if they’re strongly linked. Unless it’s just me
I had no problem last season buying a ticket for my grandson and was always able to view the ticket planner to see what seats were available. Now I can’t.I’ve never been able to buy on behalf of my son who’s a Matchday member, I have to log in as him. If I use my ST account the games on sale are blocked, even though we’re strongly linked.

We won't know the answer to that until Friday when the ticket transfer opens. I have a feeling it won't be that easy anymore.So if my wife has a citizens membership can a match day ticket still be transferred to her and then she can forward it onto whoever may want to come to the match with me ( forward via email?)
Thanks for the tip pb. I’m going to do this and put on an old phone so me and 2 or 3 other st holders can then use like we did the old plastic cards meeting outside the turnstyleJust use your middle or other first name to get a membership and set up a gmail or hotmail account in that name.
If that’s still the way they do it. There’s talk that it won’t be an email with a link. But who knows?So if my wife has a citizens membership can a match day ticket still be transferred to her and then she can forward it onto whoever may want to come to the match with me ( forward via email?)
Apparently takes a day or two.A friend who I regularly give spares to has made an account, but no supporter number has been generated. Any ideas here?
Thanks for heads up - hopefully be done before Monday. If not I’m sure the club will be flexible…Apparently takes a day or two.
I created one for someone else earlier this week, they received an email to confirm this and then several hours later they got another email that included their supporter number.Apparently takes a day or two.
Same for me mate, I do seem to remember there was a bit of a delay last time I did this, hopefully not later than 5pm Monday!A friend who I regularly give spares to has made an account, but no supporter number has been generated. Any ideas here?
65Bit off topic but what age does someone qualify for FOC prices at City? Is it 60 or 65? Looked on website but couldn't see.
Wife has created account but getting this message.Apparently takes a day or two.
This is what I had last night spent hours trying to sort it. You have to wait for an email with your membership number and then you can add to friends and family. Until then you get you do not have a ticketing account complete your registration. There is nothing to complete you are just waiting for City to create a membership number. It's a joke you sign up anywhere else and off you go. Mine arrived the next day. Good luck,and I just hope it works.Wife has created account but getting this message.
XXXX XXXXX does not have a ticketing account.
Ask them to login to complete their registration before trying to add them to your friends and family. (Ref: EC51)
There is nothing else for her to complete! Any clues? Cheers
I’d love to know what problem they’re actually trying to solve…Yet the club when struggling to shift matchday tickets then offer extra tickets to Season card holders... to pass onto who....??
so fucking hypocritical this whole sham

The problem is they're seemingly trying to comply with the rule introduced last season by the PL (R.16) that requires clubs to know the contact details of who they've sold tickets to and that the person buying the ticket is the one using it. It seems to be a very much OTT rule; can't think of any other sport that does this to this degree.I’d love to know what problem they’re actually trying to solve…
And, I’d wager, they haven’t the first clue who’s buying Viagogo tickets, or who are in the hospitality boxes…The problem is they're seemingly trying to comply with the rule introduced last season by the PL (R.16) that requires clubs to know the contact details of who they've sold tickets to and that the person buying the ticket is the one using it.

City, being City, really haven't thought it through properly and have probably created problems of their own making, on top of the problems created by this rule. I believe there are also software constraints they're trying to resolve.
It's a bit hypocritical of the club to be so keen to demonstrate full compliance with this rule when they demonstrate a completely cavalier attitude to the rule that requires them to be back in good time for the second half.
