Southampton game.

Ok so I'll be home on the weekend of the game when the season kicks off and I was wondering how easy do you think it would be for me to get a ticket for the game? Now I know we have sold out of season tickets, but how many tickets will go on general sale?

Also my dad brother and cousin are all season ticket holders is there any way one of them could get me a ticket using their card or will they only be aloud to have one ticket each?

Thanks.

If you bought a blue card with match priority (£15 I think) you could more or less guarantee yourself a ticket. Whether they will go on general sale (people without blue cards) I am not sure.

I think your dad or brother should be able to add you to their ticket buying basket online (if you have the required membership) & get you a ticket.

I think I've done that for my mate for league as well as cup games. Worth looking into as it'd be quicker than going to the ground.

There will be NO general sale this season. Not a single game.

47,000 capacity minus 36,000 season cards leaves 11,000 seats.

Take away the comfy seats, segregation and away fans. Leaves between 5000 and 8 thousand tickets for blue members depending on the game.

So in summary, get a blue card with match day priority and be waiting at 9am on the day of sale for any games you can go to.

So I'm gonna need a blue card then. How easy are they to get? I used to have a season ticket for years before i moved over here will I get a new supporter number of will they just use the one I've already got? Also will loyalty points come into play when you have a blue card or is it just first come first serve?

Not really sure if it goes by loyalty points you will need to ask someone who has a blue card but anyone can get one, it's basically an access card.

If they can find your old info/supporter number they will transfer your points over to it but it depends how long ago you used your supporter number though.

The club used loyalty point selling criteria only twice last season, for the scum & Qpr matches.. For every other game it was first come first served basis.
Don't know tho how the increased demand will change that
