Anyone know where we are with the season ticket waiting list now?
I was about 21k down the list, but I've literally just been offered a ticket today (which I'm going to take, naturally). It must have been slashed practically in half this season, which is incredibly worrying for the club.

However, I'm not quite sure that the list is as straightforward as first one on, first one off.
My mate who I go to games with sometimes has been on the list for a couple of years more than me, and so far has had no joy from the club. I'm wondering if I was prioritised because I basically went to every single home game last season through my existing membership, so they just thought they might as well give me a season ticket?

Surely someone on here is already on the list and can check their current position? I would like to know tbh, will be worried if it turns out to be as you say Asa.

So how are things with the season tickets waiting list this year? Is the club bluffing by claiming there are 40000 people on the list, or are we actually this popular?
I know Utd are struggling to get rid of theirs, and maybe this is a trend which includes us. Anyone on the list or something who knows something?

I dunno mate. I was 26000 back in 2003and after they reduced the list by 13500 due to the increase in seats after our move to the Emirates, I am yet to be offered one. I was around 8000 back in 2007 and I'm still waiting.

Ok, fair enough. Seems we are indeed a popular club. Delighted on the one hand, dissappointed on the other as I'm studying in London next season.
Thanks for the input.

Without going on a tangent, the waiting list is mainly because a season ticket had become a hot commodity among middle class professional types in London and the home counties. They're there so they can talk about it on Monday at work rather than support the club. Disgraceful, really.

I've also been offered one, might be being paranoid but worrying if the link they have provide is 'legit', as i have not been consistent with my red membership and thought it got cancelled if you miss a season
Season ticket waiting list is different from the Red membership. I've never been on the red membership with my own details that I used to get on the waiting list as there was no red membership back then.

If they've offered you one, you should be fine.
I'm pretty sure that the waiting list cannot be 'one on - one off' - I leapfrogged people who'd been on the list a lot longer when I got mine, and I think it's mainly because I went to so many games on my red membership. One of the guys I go with fairly regularly didn't get a ST until this season (i.e. 2010/11), despite being on the list a good few years longer than me.
This means you'll hear a lot of worrying anecdotes about the waiting list disappearing - though I'm not quite sure how long it really is either.

Thank for that guys. Have no idea were I got that from tbf...Just bought a season ticket! was originally offered behind the Goal upper but managed to get a ticket in RA - Block 5 as was buying only one ticket. row 4 - hoping its not too close to pitch? Been around there once and atmosphere was brilliant. ****. Just raped my balance but its worth it!
