Looks Like I’ve kept my 100% record of getting a big fat zero
Never got anything even from the away ticket ballots that I’ve entered in the past
Is there a football equivalent to being blackballed in Golf

well done to all you winners though I’m sure you’ll make some noise and have a great time

You'll feel better about it when we are 6-0 down at half time.

Is it reasonable to assume that all the emails went out at similar time this morning and so I can stop refreshing now, we aren't going?

It's the hope that kills ya !

Afraid so. The club has tweeted that all emails have been sent.

First of all I hope everyone that goes has a great time and see's us win!

Second of all I am gutted!

I had convinced myself that I wasn't bothered either way but now that I haven't got one I am more down than I thought I would be. Season ticket for over 30 years. You can count the number of home games I have missed on one hand.

Not really sure this was done the fairest way with no consideration for "time served". Maybe a case of sour grapes but I am pissed off!

I agree and am much less deserving than you, but you never know how many more chances you’ll get to go as a family etc so would never turn it down.

I'm still against tiering classes of fan for time served.  How are the newer and younger fans ever supposed to build up a history to get tickets for big games or away days?    You'll have the same 4 or 5k people first in the queue for ever more and that doesn't sit well with me.

Certainly for this game, all £30k had stumped up the money for their season ticket and in my view had as much right as eachother to go to the game.

Much like membership of the MCC, you would have to wait for the older generation to pop their clogs. Could bring a new dimension to the deathwatch thread?

Generally I agree with you, though from a purely selfish perspective, those of us who have retained their season ticket from 15/16 onwards should have some form of benefit from the last 5 years of performances.

I didn't get one but I have no issues with how the ballot was run....not sure what else they could do . I get the "time served " argument, and if that had been applied I might have stood a pretty good chance, but how far do you go? No complaints here .......Disappointed but not the end of the world in the grand scheme.

 I remember promotion year when, having luckily been able to go to enough aways to get a ticket for the Hawthorns semi final, I promised on here to make enough noise for those that weren't so lucky ....this time the boot's on the other foot, so once again....SING UP YOU LUCKY B**TARDS !!!!
