Don't get me wrong, I'm happy with the seat I got - it's just I had hoped to have got one in the South Stand. But I'm not complaining at all - I got my ST and that's what matters.
I am sure there may be an option to move your seat, next season. What block are you in?

You have to bear in mind that every member is automatically added to the waiting list. I think I'm about 38000 on the waiting list but I won't be buying a season ticket. I'm sure there are many more on the list that won't either so definitely worth applying no matter where you are on the list. I think a lot of members only intend to go to a handful of games a season.

So when are they going to announce season ticket renewal and will we get our 20% back or so the poverty stricken owners keep it?

I thought only bronze members were added to the waiting list or + members?

Yes, but crucially the Bronze/+ membership also meant earlier access to tickets over 'normal' members, and barely cost any more money. It was a clever ruse from Levy to make it look to investors/lenders/prospective ST holders as though season ticket demand was higher than it actually is.

Noice! I had to go with West Stand in the end. Where'd you get yours?
You won’t be disappointed. Good side to be. It’s a great stadium. After being a season ticket holder since 1980 i gave it up after one season in the new stadium. My grandad started the family trend in the 1930s. Think I’m disappointing him badly. Time to let others have a go who will appreciate it more. You can’t avoid the moaners. But the atmosphere is great. I kinda missed the old stadium; had a more heartfelt realness to it, if that makes sense. And I’m not that old at all... lucky to start as a young kid.

Enjoy mate and likewise to all those finally getting the opportunity to hold a season ticket

The latest from The Trust.

Ticketing update with THFC
31/03/2021
THST co-chairs Kat Law and Martin Cloake, along with Board member and ticketing support lead Anthoulla Achilleos, met with Club ticketing staff on 2 March for an update on various ticketing strands. Here, we’ll explain what we’ve lobbied for. The Club will publicly announce their decisions in due course.

First, we’ve lobbied for the General Admission Season Ticket price freeze the Club had committed to a year ago to be upheld for the 2021/22 season. It would not be appropriate or reasonable to pass any of the significant losses incurred by the Club throughout the duration of the pandemic onto the fans; many of whom are also experiencing significant financial hardship. So, we would like prices held at the 2020/21 level for next season.

We asked the Club to clarify that all deposits, along with any additional funds held in Cashback accounts, would be carried over to next season. This is something that was clarified on the call. So we can confirm the 20% deposits paid to hold Season Tickets for the current season will be deducted from the cost of 2021/22 Season Tickets.

We told the Club that the view we were hearing from members and fellow fans was that there was a reluctance to part with any more money until it was clear that fans would definitely be permitted to attend games at full capacity from August 2021. We asked for any renewal deadline to be extended beyond the government’s planned 21 June announcement, when the likelihood that fans would be back inside grounds for the start of the 2021/22 season may be clearer.

We asked for special consideration to be given to those who had deferred their Season Tickets on medical grounds this season and for the Club to be mindful of those who find themselves in temporary financial hardship as a result of loss of earnings caused by COVID-19. The Club needs to be conscious of the specific issues facing fans in the upcoming renewal window: summed up as Fear, Finance and Health. We asked for installment options to be available and in place for those requiring or preferring to pay for their Season Ticket in this manner and again for the Club to be aware of difficulties those temporarily out of work may have securing credit from the usual providers.

We asked for assurances that any amended Ticketing T&Cs for 2021/22 wouldn’t include a ‘Force Majeure’ clause in relation to disrupted seasons in future.

We had submitted proposals in advance on how the Ticketing Points cycle should be adjusted to maximise fairness for both newer and longer-term Season Ticket holders, given no points had been deducted last summer and no points had been awarded for individual games this season.

As a reminder, ticketing points operate on a rolling cycle compromising points accrued from the current season and from the four previous seasons. Each summer, points are deducted from the fifth season prior to the current one, keeping points to the four previous seasons and current one only.

The onset of COVID-19 and failure to complete the 2019-20 season with fans present resulted in the Club deciding not to deduct any points at the end of the last season. The fact 2020-21 has been a fallow season in terms of ticketing points meant steps needed to be taken to redress the balance and get the points cycle back on track.

With that in mind, we have lobbied the Club to:
  • Remove the 2020-21 season from the loyalty point rolling system altogether
  • For longer-term ST holders to have their 2015-16 points deducted at the end of this season
  • For newer ST holders (those who purchased during our season at Wembley) to have their first season’s deduction at the end of the 2022-23 season
This would mean that both longer-term and newer Season Ticket holders would hold four seasons of points by the end of the 2021-22 season, with both sets of ST holders then holding ticketing points accrued during 2017-18, 2018-19, 2019-20 (partial season), 2021-22 when entering the 2022-23 season. The following infographic explains our thinking in visual form.

The Club will consider our suggestion and announce their solution in due course.

At the time of writing, the League Cup Final has not been selected as a pilot event and, as such, no fans will be permitted inside Wembley on 25 April. This is a fluid situation, however, with sporadic rumours appearing in the media to the contrary! We’re in touch with the Club and have reminded staff of our recommendation for any tickets to be awarded by ticketing points not ballot should the decision change. We would also argue for priority to be given to fans of the competing clubs in the event of any limited capacity event.

It is possible the last home league game of the season v Aston Villa will be held in front of 10,000 home fans. This is reliant on government permission, but should this go ahead, tickets would be allocated by ballot. We have asked that the Club is transparent on how those tickets are divided across the various Sponsor, Player, Partner, Staff, Premium and General Admission pots. The Trust position is for a proportional allocation in line with regular match days.

We’ll keep in close contact with the Club as the government’s roadmap out of lockdown advances.

How did you manage to move?

The club invited any season ticket holder who wanted to move, to submit an application form. I did this, and a couple of months later they called me and sorted it.

I believe the club stopped facilitating this a few weeks later, even though there were still many applications outstanding.

Even though I'm someone who has never been to the new stadium (and never will be able to go :() that just doesn't seem fair?

Surely everyone should have the same opportunity/treatment?

Don't get me wrong. I'm happy for you personally. I just feel that, if the club actively invited season ticket holders to submit application requests to be moved to a different seat/stand, ALL submitted applications should be noted and considered equally.
