| Blaming the club is stupid. They have been given a reduced allocation because of the difference in capacity between KR & the Stobart. Therefore they have to look into ways of giving priority, all the loyalty schemes and membership ideas mentioned in the earlier posts are fantastic and something to look at moving forward but as it stands, there is nothing like this in place.
The club have had to make a difficult decision on how to prioritise ticket sales for this fixture and have ultimately gone down the route I believe most clubs would do under such circumstances. I imagine that this will raise it's head again when Saints play Leeds and Wigan as their away following is of a similar stature to ours. Once these games take place we will be able to compare the ways in which each club deals with the reduced allocation.
Obviously this being the first home game of the season (someone correct me if I am wrong on this, as haven't checked) there was always going to be added interest as all the Saints fans get to see what it's like to have a decent ground to play their home games at

| Quote jdrocket="jdrocket"yes i do.
It should be first come first serve like every other away match. If it was a home match and i didn't get a ticket cause 8,000 people have season tickets, fair enough.'"
rubbish, your just miffed cos you think you might struggle to get a ticket, now if you had a season ticket i'm sure you'd be saying it was fair.
what about junior ticket holders who've got vouchers for away matches? will they have to join the first come first served mob as you suggest? or will they get tickets and the adult who has to accompany them not get one/ get one in a different part of the ground?
face facts it's the fairest way to do it, i have a season ticket for the first time in decades despite not missing a match, if i didn't have one i'd still think it was fair!

No it is unfair. A season ticket guarantees entry to every HOME game. If it guaranteed away games too, I would purchase one.
I am miffed because of way it has come about. People have said we should have seen this coming cause we knew saints were moving to a smaller stadium. Well Wolves did see it coming and should have mentioned something, if they intended to do this.
The children's season ticket thing you mentioned is really daft but if you want to be pedantic. Fine, allow the children with season tickets plus one adult to buy early. As that would make sense as the rules would have been in place before the season tickets were on sale. Pus, is easily executed.
It is still fairer, no matter what you want to believe, just to put them on general sale.

I am miffed at way this has come about. People on this board have mentioned how we must have seen this coming, knowing that saints have a smaller stadium. Well Wolves did know and didn't mention anything about during the early bird sale of season tickets. It is very unprofessional of them.
The children's ticket you mention is a bit daft but if you want to be pedantic. Fine, allow every children's season ticket holder plus one adult to go to the game. That would make more sense and would conform to the logic they had set out before the season tickets went on sale. Plus, it is easily executed.
However, the fairest way of doing it, despite what you want to believe, is to put them on general sale.

I guessed  made me wonder how many season ticket holders may not be able to go. Sure Wigan will have a similair problem when we play them.

Anyone who refers to the Wire as "Wolves" should automatically be banned from attending any match anyway.

I blame the me, me, me society we have today. Everyone thinks they have the rights to get something. The club have had to make a decision on the fairest way of distributing limited tickets. I think they are right to choose a way that makes it fairer on a group of people who have invested their money up front to the club in the form of season ticket sales.
I've not got a season ticket myself yet and have no problem with someone getting a ticket before me. I'll probably end up trying for one in the Saints end if the Warrington end doesn't go on general sale.
I seem to remember there was a similar panic for tickets for Wembley, Saints away and Wigan away last season when in reality anyone who wanted a ticket could get one.
