Topic: Members Sales 17/18

[sowellred]

Am I right in thinking the 17/18 sales will start on with 11th July or 18th July?

Happy days!

[Childwall Red]

Now the speculation over credits for the first sale will begin.

[chrisfletcher]

I've heard the first sale is to all new members with a London postcode

If thats the case I guess all Scandinavians and Asians only get 2nd dips?

Has anyone heard/seen anything about the extra seats they're adding on the kop?

Block 303 or 307 perhaps?

Block 202 and 208 are being extended back as far as 203 and 207 goes. So no new blocks as such, just more of 202 and 208 (I think about 7 rows more).

Sound. Either way be good to see a new seating plan when it's done.

[DangerScouse]

Any word on when they're announcing the selling criteria?

I guess they announce it early next week.
Now there most likely waiting for the fixture list and sending out email to everyone that bought a hospitality ticket. They need to secure the big bucks before they can be bothered with the working man.

[swoopy]

Nah, they'll wait till just before the sale. Depends on number of members who renew, and how many credits those members have, before they can determine what the priority point should be

I don't think the number of members who have renewed will have any influence on where the priority point will be.

"To be eligible to purchase tickets during this members’ sale, official LFC memberships must be purchased before midnight on Sunday July 9."

If, for example, they have 15,000 members on 14+ credits, it doesn't really matter how many of them have renewed until today. All of them can still renew until July 9th, and they will be eligible for the sale, together with the ones who have renewed in May/June.

Brighton home last game guarantees one less game in the Cat C free for all -Winner

[adwhite40]

Be interesting to see how they stagger the sales this season.

[didopich]

Are prices staying the same as last year???

[chrisfletcher]

Be interesting to see how many Cat C's there are

Bournemouth, Burnley, Watford, Brighton and Huddersfield all should be but I bet they're not

Does it matter that much? There's no price difference anyway. It only matters if you need previous credits to buy them or not.
It would benefit me if less games were in that cat.

[lfc79]

I would guess now the price categorisation have gone they will increase the number of cat c games

[sambhi92]

Do we think the 1st sale will be guaranteed tickets to all that qualify to all the game or will it be a 1st come 1st serve? 

[ScubaSteve]

I'd be pretty confident in saying it'll be guaranteed!

[lfc79]

Same as last year probably  14 / 15+ guaranteed tickets for A and B games, all Cat C free for all, all good if you can get tickets in the kop or end up getting gouged in the rest of the stadium.

[Dan6times]

For some reason I thought I had 14 from last season but only have 13!

What was the criteria for the first sale last season for the cat A's & B's? Please say 13....

[redgriffin73]

Last season the only Cat C games were the three promoted teams I think. Hopefully it's the same again with Brighton changed to Cat B as its on the last day.

[Van_Pur]

Brighton as last game of the season and Newcastle won't be free for all - my guess is 3 from Watford, Huddersfield, Burnley, Bournemouth will be sold without credits. For rest 14+ and in second phase of sale for Arsenal, Chelsea, Everton, ManCity, ManUtd, Tottenham and Brighton 4+ (as last ssn).

[ABJ]

It was 13 mate.

[RMG]

So do we think it'll be 13 and 4 again or will Cat A maybe go up?

[lfc79]

No surprise just looked at the prices of the main stand hospitality basically after match ticket and hotel you're paying £136 for a pint and a bit of street food and little chat with an LFC legend! I guess every little bit helps the players get paid.

I'd expect that but still frustrates me they don't go a staggered sale

Very good point. great stuff

[poopscoop]

Regardless of whether ticket prices rise, next season could be cripplingly expensive for me. League will be brilliant, Champions League salivating already, FA Cup always a draw - fizzy gravy Cara-bleh Cup usually good pre-Christmas high jinks. Petrol, beer and grub on top of that  ... oh lordy!

[Gloucestershire Red]

I would be a little upset for only 3 CAT C games to potentially get tickets having spent money on a membership. I get that not being able to go to any games for 3 or more seasons because my priorities changed has done for me, however I am no less of a fan just because I am exiled down South now, but to make it so difficult for new fans seems harsh. 

Not trying to annoy or upset anyone who went to 14+ games last year as I understand the passion you have for the club, but where is the room for new fans to get in? Do they stagger CAT A and B now, ie 14+, then 7 then free for all for example?

You'll get some mate, I wouldn't worry. I had zero before last season and ended up on 6 league games and could've gone to loads more had I had the money.

your really prime "Cat A" will only drop to 4 games normally from previous seasons - even those drop to all members if they are midweek normally

All other games you may miss out in the main sales but late availability tickets are easily found if you're sharp in the week leading up to the game

You will get access to plenty of tickets if you put the time in

NOTE: i neither agree with the membership fee nor do i agree it should become like a second job getting tickets but thats the way it is at the moment

[Gloucestershire Red]

Thanks for the responses guys, most appreciated

[Upinsmoke]

Yeah you should be alright, my son never went to a game before last season and managed to get 5 first half of the season

Promising. I have to decide whether to try and build me and my brothers cards this season with an aim of building further next season or continue to build my mates card who has left the country and who has 12/13 but who could just decide to come back if we are in the hunt for the title. After deciding he wanted to go to Bournemouth when it looked like we might win the league I was a bit put out when as we fell out of contention he said I could do Bournemouth but he wanted Everton as I've never been to a derby at home. It's great that his card enabled me to go to lots of games but I don't fancy spending an entire season maxing a card with little effort on his part for him to just take it off me at short notice when it suits.

With Europe this season and more expensive tickets due to likely Champions League it would be better to do a handful of league games, so I think I'll start to build my own card and my brothers from zero.
