Ticket for Brighton

Post by JohnnyB » Sun Sep 01, 2024 8:31 pm

Hey all, just in case anyone's got any tips or whatever here. I'm a Brighton resident and would dearly love a seat in the away end on 14th. I've got superblues membership but don't attend many games and tickets long gone.

Are returns available at some point? Anyone got any other ideas?

Cheers, John

Probably your only option is a resale home ticket (like the scheme town offer) - or going the hopsitality route.
Away tickets are going to be extremely hard to come by this year.

Cheers guys, I'll keep trying, you never know.

Might be easier to get in the Albion seats. I have a couple of mates with season ticket packages - but I hate that sitting on your hands situation

1 hospitality seat = £270 :D

Or £3 per minute of football!

You get food and booze but still...

Yeah that’s quite punchy!

Shame as probably some town fans are buying away tickets and not going just to keep their points tally up.

This is what really pisses me off and why the system is wrong.

Just out of interest, if someone decided to do that, could they then pass their ticket on to someone else who did want to go?

Officially NO, does it happen all the time as Mike said, YES.

I imagine its against the 'ticket touting policy' the club has. I hear all the time though from other fans 'Oh I went to X game as my mate has a season ticket but couldnt go'. I guess its very hard to police, if you ID'd every supporter there would be some massive queues.

Maybe post on TWTD forum - something like 'anyone meeting up before the game, let me know where as I'm a local lad but coudn't get a ticket, or if anyone can't make it now let me know' - then try and sort via a PM.

The ballot is out tomorrow so I don’t think the tickets have even gone on sale yet?
