End of the day we can argue till the cows come home who goes home, away or does both but we are all Southend United and this issue should not of happened so that there would be enough tickets for us all.

Exactly ! People would have booked flights, accomodation etc thinking that it'll be a doddle getting tickets in a 90,000 seater stadium

If you are looking for anyone to be angry at try the National League

You are the one who sounds angry, simply replying to the rhetoric that ST holders deserve first dibs when alot of non ST holders probably have spent more time and money than them this season. 4x tickets to ST holders is a joke. Should be 1-2 per ST on that allocation.

I agree. The other problem is giving seaso's a max 4 x tickets each. 1 regular supporter and 3 x daytrippers ? I'd rather it was 1-2 so that the regular fans that aren't seaso's (that follow us home and away) have an opportunity when they go on general sale

To be fair, I tend to agree with this, as it doesnt help regulars who dont have a season ticket. I was a bit fed up at the possible entourage gathering around me, some of whom havent been to a game since the last play off final!

Maybe it would have been better to do 2 per STH and then a second priority for people who have bought say 5+ home game tickets this season. But also, who would have predicted that the powers that be could mess up the logistics so spectacularly!

Looks like TBV sections well on their way of selling out

Then they could have saved themselves a few quid buying a season ticket.

Some people it isn’t feasible due to travel, family, work. Isn’t all about the money saving of a ST

Latics have sold around 10k in sround 2 hours, but most people I know (including me) can't get onto the site.

God knows who's got tickets because hardly anyone I know has managed it

Probably ticket touts. They're like vultures once they sense a high demand

People act like non ST holders don’t go to home & away games.

First game in 1994 and a season ticket holder for 15+ years. Clocked up thousands of miles and pounds following this club, including the 4-0 loss to Sunderland away, the Swansea away promotion party and Millennium Stadium twice. Saw us lose at Wembley to Crewe and sadly missed the L2 playoffs final. Temporarily gave up my ST two seasons ago when my daughter was born and now facing the possibility of not getting to Wembley after the last few years we’ve had. I’m genuinely heartbroken at the thought of it.

There was a drop down menu asking you how many tickets you want to purchase. Importantly, as long as your account has ‘family and friends’ accounts attached you can buy up to a max of 4 per season card number all seated together. If you have that you may be able to re-enter the site and buy tickets for the others in your group albeit seated separately from your previous successful purchase. Your new purchases will however have to be assigned to accounts not already used. Hope this helps.

Thanks. I only wanted 4. The problem with the site is where you try to choose a block. Maybe it’s ok on a laptop but a mess on a phone (especially a Nokia 3210)

Actually very happy with my much more neutral view this time. You never watch the game behind the goal or in the singing section. Maybe this is just me showing my age since 2015 but I’d actually quite like to watch the game and not have to rely on watching it back on tele afterwards

I would have made it 2 per ST too, but every single supporter knows ST priority exists and always has done.

Everyone had the choice to buy one last July.

If it’s not about the money and you’re going to most of the games anyway why wouldn’t you get a Season Ticket

People dont get it mate. Who cares about the rest of us non ST holders “because we should of just bought one” according to Cyril.

I have no objection to ST holders having first priority. But not priority for their Aunt Flo, who hasn’t been to RH since David Webb was in charge

I have probably missed about 8 home games due to personal commitments but been to over 10 away games. Why should I justify my reasons for not having a season ticket and why I am deserving of Wembley ticket?

Absolutely. Anyone caught doing it should be called out immediately and dealt with by the club. You can’t **** on your fellow fans like that who have already been **** on.

I’ve just been offered 2 tickets. £1,500 each.
