I shall be getting one this season but I have a question.

There is one seat in the SME at the moment but its right on the front row. If I bought that would I be able to change to a better seat if somebody doesn't renew theirs?

If the answer is yes how will I know that somebody hasn't renewed?

Thanks for any help.
A couple of lads in front of me in row MM have said they probably wont renew due to night shift work commitments and too many midweek matches so it might be worth hanging on and getting in there as soon as they are released
I'm pretty sure ST holdrs can opt to move seats as soon as the renewal deadline has passed and the now seats available are published
If in doubt give the ticket office a call

Thanks for that Frank. The price isn't going up after a certain date is it?

As you can readily change your seat on a weekly basis if a STH I can’t see it being a problem.

Thank you also.

Renewed on Saturday.

Heard the lad in front ask “sales been good” and the bloke behind the counter replied “superb, been really busy. Possibly more than last few years”

Think there’s a bit of a buzz about not being in the Prem strangely (although I’m massively looking forward to this season, more than in any season since Clarke).

Also think the prices have really helped.

So, we get the chance to move seats now, but unless I'm mistaken we just have to ring up the ticket office and guess which seats may be free to move to. We really are useless sometimes, not hard to put up a map with which seats are free is it?!

If you go on to the Albion website, and choose tickets, season tickets, you can see what seats are free.

Just moved by seat from the Brummie into the Smethwick. Sat a little bit closer to the away fans than I wanted (the end seat) 5 rows from the back but it will do for now. I'll see if I can move a little bit closer to the centre of the Smethwick later in the week.

I don't think we'd expect to sell more than 19.5/20k ST's to be honest. Wouldn't be surprised if the figure is at about 12/13k with people waiting on transfer dealings before committing.

We don't make 23/24k tickets available to season ticket holders. Large away cup allocations would see folk with nowhere to sit. I believe we cap it somewhere between 19500/21000.

It's 15,000 so far, 1000 up on last year at the same stage.

Also think there is some sort of ruling that a certain % of your capacity has to be made available as 'non-season ticket' sales, thereby capping the number below the stadium capacity minus the away 'area' capacity

Yes going along pretty well so far but will surely stall soon, unless we start recruiting a few players.

Anybody else had issues obtaining student ticket?

I’ve shown my UNiDAYS ID, the college have emailed the club directvyetvthey still say I haven’t provided suitable ID.

They want an NUS card which I don’t have (not paying £15 when UNiDAYS is free.

The NUS Extra Card is the ID required and that's pretty much that. They're not being unreasonable, it's just the way it is. It costs £12 for one year, £22 for two and £32 for three.

Due to his age my son has changed from a junior concession to full time student. He purchased his NUS Extra Card online today and it'll be here within seven working days. It's then a simple process to scan and email it to the club along with a small photo of yourself. Failing that just take them to the ticket office and let them sort it for you.

I had an NUS card (as a mature student) and saved shed loads of money on a variety of items ranging from clothing, trainers and restaurants etc; not just my season ticket. Up to you of course but it may be in your best interests to think again. I sent them a scan of my card each year when renewing. It was absolutely no hassle at all and I wish I was still eligible for one now.

Not exactly a huge outlay for the discount you get! Besides, you get some nifty discounts with NUS cards anyway.

Bloody students eh?  ;D
