BigAl Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Seems pretty fair to me but sure plenty of folk will disagree Betfred Cup Final Aberdeen v Celtic Sunday 27th November, 3pm KO Hampden Park, Glasgow The Club can now confirm the ticketing process for our forthcoming Betfred Cup Final against Celtic at Hampden. Tickets will be made available based on the number of Loyalty Points that each supporter has built-up from July last year. The Loyalty Points system is now in its third season and was designed specifically to deal with occasions such as this where there will be a high demand for tickets. After careful consideration the Loyalty Point thresholds have been set at a level where we can guarantee supporters in Phase One and Phase Two a ticket for this match. Supporters can of course add to their Loyalty Points total before tickets for the match go on sale by purchasing tickets for our forthcoming fixtures. Supporters who fall short of the Loyalty Points total for Phase One and Phase Two can purchase a Mid-season ticket before Monday 7th November to guarantee their cup final ticket. See full details below. Pittodrie Chief Executive Duncan Fraser commented. "Having witnessed the numbers who travelled to Parkhead for the League Cup Final two years ago, we are well aware that demand will outstrip supply and the method of distribution will ensure that our supporters who have demonstrated their loyalty to the team will be able to attend. "As stated earlier this week, we are content with the allocation the Club has received and indeed guaranteed the cost of the tickets allocated to strengthen our case for parity." ON SALE DATES Phase One - Tickets will exclusively go on sale to supporters with 60+ Loyalty Points at 9am on Saturday 5th November. Phase Two - Supporters with 20 or more Loyalty Points will be able to purchase tickets online from 5.30pm on Tuesday 8th November. Tickets will then also be made available in person and over the phone to supporters with 20 or more Loyalty Points from 9.30am on Wednesday 9th November. Phase Three - Any remaining tickets will be made available to supporters with 10 or more points online from 5.30pm on Thursday 10th November. The remaining tickets at this point will then also be made available in person and over the phone to supporters with 10 or more Loyalty Points from 9.30am on Friday 11th November.

Slim Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 I don't have enough loyalty points for it to matter to me at the moment, but I've been buying 2 tickets for each match online through my account for my wife and I. Does this mean that if I did have enough loyalty points, I'd only be able to buy a single ticket despite having bought 2 tickets for each match? So I'll need to register an account for my wife who lives in the same house as me for future matches? Seems a bit odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CtS Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 I've registered my kids for their own accounts now so they get points, but similar situation to you - despite them attending the semi they've got no chance of getting final tickets.

gogsred Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Seems pretty fair to me but sure plenty of folk will disagree I agree - seems a very fair way to deal with this. I don't have a season ticket as I can't go to all the home games but I am lucky enough to be in Phase 2. So hopefully will get a ticket no problem.

BigAl Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 I don't get too many home games (three so far this season just) but by buying my tickets for away games via AFC it has ensured that I am in category two and able to put my plans in place for 27th November safe in the knowledge I am getting a ticket Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobbyBiscuit Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 Our supporters club asked for 37, received 16. Apparently the supporters club allocation was over-subscribed by more than 1,000, so will be a lot of disappointed folk looking for tickets through that avenue.

Looks like most clubs have received allocations that were less than they asked for. I know of one club who requested 160 odd and got 100. Club I run got a decent number but still less than we had asked for. Going to try to make up the difference through season ticket holders and those who have enough loyalty points ordering tickets separately. Should mean that we about get there.

wi_09 Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 I know of one club who requested 160 odd and got 100. I got that email this morning. Interesting that they was such a high request when I never seen near that many members. Interesting times ahead for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dons8321 Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 In case you were wondering, Al, I got a ticket! Me too! took about 30mins on the website this evening but eventually got through. Just as well as I'd already booked the train and B&B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigAl Posted November 13, 2016 Share Posted November 13, 2016 So 18000 tickets sold, 4,000 remain, and now down to only requiring two loyalty points to purchase. Looks like the plan that everyone that wants one, gets one has come together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocket_scientist Posted November 13, 2016 Share Posted November 13, 2016 4,000 don't want yet. That's worrying. 43 THOUSAND of us were at the last final. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well not exactly, as I mentioned in an earlier post my kids are missing out because I had all their loyalty points.....pity, next generation of supprters etc etc. I could get them tickets now - but I've already got mine because I couldn't gamble on their being any left, and I can't have them sitting on their own. Pity they couldn't have given semi final supporters 10 points or something - would have helped my situation a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or phone the ticket office, tell them your situation and I'm sure they would refund your ticket leaving you able to buy 3 later on. You sure you've been allocated their points? I didn't think it was possible for one account holder to be given more than 1 set of points per game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
