Just did some research we got drawn against Reading on the 6th December and announced the tickets on the 16th. So if we've not heard by Thursday then I'd start to worry

I'd just like to be the first to complain about the club's decision on West Ham tickets.
Whatever decision the club takes there is going to be criticism from some quarters. It is not going to please everyone, that's obvious. These occasions are one of the reasons I became a STH so obviously I expect that they are given priority. The other possible scenarios are a guess at the moment.

Order of priority should be:
1. STHs
2. Children of STHs
3. Boyfriends of children of STHs
4. Everyone else
That seems fairest (and, purely by coincidence of course, would suit me very well !)

Is it not now a bit strange that there's no ticket news yet? Less than three weeks go? Especially if it's going to be tied up with other tickets.
I agree, surely something will be announced by tomorrow?

Unless the club bring in additional incentives such as half season tickets or bulk home match package then I see no reason why it should be any different to the last round - and therefore everyone that supported the club v.s. Reading should be in with a fairly good shout of getting a ticket.

I agree.,
. STH first
. Those who attended both Reading and Halifax games and a League fixture this season
. General Sale
I do also think West Hams allocation should be cut to the minimum, thus allowing more tickets to home fans.

Can I agree with that, except to point out that some of us had to miss the Halifax fixture (COVID, family events, etc), but made both Grimsby and Ware, plus most league games. I'm not sure how an arbitrary picking of selected fixtures is either fair or helpful. Why not ST holders, then those who had tickets v Reading, then open sale? Simple and fair.
And better for me, admittedly. I also bought a tile in the players' tunnel, if that helps prove my Big Dog supporter level.

Perhaps option 2 should read then - those who have been to a league game and an fa cup game?

Almost perfect, but amended it for you.

Happy with that, if direct descendants of attendees that day are able to inherit the right to buy tickets.

Hopefully they reward the 18 that went to the rearranged fa trophy game at BPA on a freezing Monday night about 10 years ago!!!
