Individual Match Tickets - 2024/25

Screw this, been threatening to get non league season tickets for a while but now's the moment. Been flirting with Solihull Moors but think time to nail our colours to the Tamworth FC mast. Might even get to see City as well depending on how the case goes :-)

13504 for me but I joined the queue at 9.20.

I’ll probably get kicked out when I reach the end of the queue and will have to start again. That’s another classic failure of the tech that awaits.

use the email notification, it emails you a link to get back in your spot.
 
My conspiracy theory is that it's touts joining the queue on 20/30/40 devices each who then hoover up tickets to all the games as soon as their first device gets access. How else can you explain the sheer amount of tourists at every game?
 
It is indeed a lottery at 10am and has nothing to do with when you joined the first "queue".
info from 5 devices:

first one on about 09:15 was 19311
second just after was 46769
just after that 25550
another device at 09:59 got 27164
another one at 0959 got 61764

I was thinking this as well. It's touting, pure and simple.

Does anyone trust the 'e-mail me when it is my turn' option?

It worked for me yesterday.

I mean, the tickets had sold out about an hour earlier, but the email arrived :/

My expectation for today, is that at the current speed, I'll be at the front of the queue around 9pm tomorrow night. Still, on the bright side, once everything has sold out, the queue might speed up a little.

I'm in California - it's 2:22 am and having clicked the button at 2 am, there are still over 69,000 people ahead of me for West Ham in January... Went to my first home game in 1971, 53 years ago. At the rate the queues going down it'll be another 53 years before I can buy this ticket!
 
The club are a disgrace - I'm fuming on this - to be able to buy memberships this morning and have no record with the club and get as many tickets as you like is a joke. They do not give a toss about the fans and want to maximise revenue. I'm only trying as I have a 5 year old and a 7 year old who are really engaged and would like to go. Otherwise, I would have given up and accept that the club is lost to me.

I wouldn't doubt that seeing how many tickets show up on viagogo-esque sites but also we're just one of the "new cool things" for Americans.

The Prem has blown up in the US over the last 5 years. We've won 4 of those.

The comedy Ted Lasso on Apple TV was a massive sensation over there. We're the most prominently featured Premier League team on the show.

There are going to be the bandwagon fans who just want to come over and see the team they've been lifelong fans of for the last few years.

It's why the club release tickets the way they do, in one giant batch. It gives the day trippers time to plan.

I genuinely believe they'd get rid of season tickets if they knew it wouldn't bring about absolute chaos.
