On sale now. Does anyone know how you go about purchasing more than one together? Trying to get one for me and my son (accounts are linked) but when I select 2 tickets it says there are no options available. Do I have to log in as him and buy 2 totally separate ones?

Keep refreshing, it's likely all tickets are currently in people's baskets but some will time out so they'll go back on sale.

Cheers, do I need to be logged in as my son or should it allow as many as I’ve got in my network do you know?

Yeah, looking at twitter loads had the same issue. Looks like it might’ve sold out now. Oh well.

just log in on your account but make sure you can ‘assign’ tickets to people in your network, not just ‘manage’ them.

Yeah, I’ve bought for him before with no issues just wasn’t sure if it was the same for games with 1 per season ticket. Pretty sure I’ve got it all set up ok now, I’m thinking it just sold out very quickly and that’s why loads have missed out. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Looking at Twitter there seems to be a system issue. Can't believe they are sold out yet. I'd keep persevering if you can.

Next year they should bring in a caps system for the initial sales period. Seems crazy that people who go every away game and struggling for these tickets.

Sorry for the late response, you can buy as many tickets as there are people in your network, you just assign them to the other people. They do have to have the right privileges though, i.e. correct level of ST or membership.

So if you and your boy are both ST holders, you can buy one for you and assign the other to him.

They should have an away priority membership instead of tying it to home attendance with season tickets. But even so 1,300 is less than our average away following so there was always going to be some missing out.

A club at this level having an 11k stadium is a joke frankly.

What do you want them to do about it? It’s suitable for their fanbase

I’d like them to stop funding a club that clearly can’t support their spend ideally. I know it’s just a symptom of the game but the fact they get half out crowds but spend probably ten times as much pisses me off.

Its not really as they sell out every week. For this game they had to have +23 past purchase history to get a ticket.

Isn’t that just to stop away fans getting home tickets?

Well it's typical of most small clubs that get to the top .

Bandwagon for a couple years then back to their natural level

See Wigan etc

I think we can all appreciate that some people were going to miss out given we only had 1300 tickets available. However there should be a system where those who attend most or all away matches are prioritised. All Premier Clubs do it and sell through ticketmaater so it’s obviously achievable.

I'd happily pay £20 at the start of a season to gain priority to away tickets.

Even if it was an hour earlier than season tickets.

They could cap the memberships at a 1000.

I agree. I think it’s ridiculous I, someone who never goes away, gets first dibs on away tickets.

I suspect the club looks at it from a narrow financial perspective in that the don’t make money away but do at home so use away tickets to incentivise season tickets sales rather than looking from a fan service perspective.

I’d love to see any evidence that a significant number of people buy STs for priority away access.

The only way forward is to accumulate caps or points for away travel .

Thankfully it would only need to be used 2 or 3 times a season

Bournemouth have actually sold out all of their matches for the past 6 seasons. Not all ticket holders have turned up recently (Covid I guess), but all available tickets have been sold for every game so far this season.

Tickets sold as with any club go onto the attendance though , regardless of wether they show up or not ??

A fluctuation of 3000 with an away end of 1300 suggests they do not sell out

They will however sell out against us as they've just issued the remaining tickets

Really good idea.

Cap the memberships according to the smallest away allocation that given season.

Ie this season Luton. 1000.

It's not a good idea when we are averaging 1900

Cap or points based system

People would moan if they missed on a membership too btw

Why should I potentially miss out on a membership when I haven't missed over 5 away games in 7 years ?

Luckily I've got mine but I know a few who also go to every game home and away that have missed out here. I think the club really ought to have put some sort of priority/points system in place for Luton, This match and maybe the Fulham game depending on allocation as it seems unfair on some of the regulars.
