Maybe not quite that many, but to be honest working on everyone taking first and 2nd options, plus players and other cuts. I think roughly that could be what is left in window 3, I might be way out. People may wait till window three to sit with friends and family of course.
Do we know how many people will fall into window 1 and 2?
As a ST holder and wanting to buy a ticket for me and a Pal (who comes regularly to away games) I need to know if I'm going to shoot myself in the foot by waiting for Window 3, or do I buy in Window 1 just for me?
Knowing splits would help me decide whether to stick or twist
@Twizz There's no doubt demand will exceed supply which makes it even more of a nonsense that STH's can buy a 2nd ticket ahead of people that attend regularly but don't have a ST. I can't believe there is another club that would treat it's regular non-STH fans so badly.
Regarding dates and timing - the only thing that seems to be definite is those eligible in Windows 1 & 2 will be able to buy tickets from 5pm after the Luton game.
So that suggests Window 1 will open as soon as the tickets arrive from Spurs and then window 2 will open sometime between then and 5pm on 21st Jan.
I believe STH's should be able to buy 2 tickets straight away as a sign of loyalty especially as most of them are also 500 club members and also share scheme members
Pretty sure they will not be delaying opening window 1 until the Luton game on 21/1.
Windows are going to have to be pretty quick.
Something along lines of
tues 17th Window 1
wed 18th to thurs 19th window 1 and 2 open
fri and sat 21st window three now open
mon 24th window 4 if any left.
It does say that the ticket office will be open after the Luton game for those eligible in Windows 1 and 2. Presumably, this indicates that Window 3 won't commence until at least the day after the Luton game or, since that will be a Sunday, the Monday following that game. Or am I reading too much into it?
Trust have just tweeted me about the window dates: "These aren't confirmed yet - once the club has the tickets to sell they will confirm timings for each window."

@SurreyWanderer - I believe there are approximately 1700 STH's, 315 Share Scheme investors (many of whom will be STHs) and 342 500 Club members (again, many of whom will be STH's). Not exact numbers but have gone through old minutes and think that is accurate.
So, can anyone answer my question? Will all four windows be open on Tuesday morning, or will they be phased over a number of days. Windows 1 & 2 Tuesday, Window 3 Wednesday etc.
Seems to me that the simple use of the word 'Phase' may have been more appropriate. I appreciate things need to be prioritised but sometimes we do over complicate.
Thank you for enlightening me. A window is a window unless provided by Microsoft. And to prove his is tongue in cheek, a door is a door unless it is ajar!

For what it's worth, I think it should have been done this way, but the way they have done it is reasonably fair and adequate:
1 - ST Holders
2 - Half ST-Holders / Share Scheme / 500 Club
3 - Trust Members or 5 away stubs
4 - General sale
I've purchased a half season ticket to ensure I can make it to this game!

All these windows good job they dropped the window tax!!I have no choice thankfully but to sit by the fire.

I hope they allow sit anywhere so family and friends can sit together.

Hopefully club will publish daily sales so those gambling on window 3 can reassess probabilities on an ongoing basis.

What ever they did it wont be right for some. But I don't think its to bad as I think everyone will have an option thats suits.

I think the main problem is the lack of dates of when each window will be open and also being kept up to date with ticket sales from each window
They can't give a date until they get the tickets and commence the first window.

The joy of ticket allocations!!.
Pretty reasonable stuff. Not sure why 500 Club gets priority over share scheme. Guess it's the shiny new bauble they want to promote.
I'm a share scheme participant and I'd be a bit cheesed off by this if I didn't also have a ST.
So on Tuesday (17th) morning are all 4 windows open or just window 1?
@SurreyWanderer - I believe there are approximately 1700 STH's, 315 Share Scheme investors (many of whom will be STHs) and 342 500 Club members (again, many of whom will be STH's). Not exact numbers but have gone through old minutes and think that is accurate.
Window 3 then!
Are there really only 315 share scheme investors?
Blimey
So, can anyone answer my question? Will all four windows be open on Tuesday morning, or will they be phased over a number of days. Windows 1 & 2 Tuesday, Window 3 Wednesday etc.
@Blue_since_1990 it will be phased, but the timings are to be confirmed.
No. Blue. They are not talking about physical windows. By windows they mean phases.
Window 4 will not open (if at all) for a good while yet.
Thanks. That makes more sense.
Seems to me that the simple use of the word 'Phase' may have been more appropriate. I appreciate things need to be prioritised but sometimes we do over complicate.
Windows 1-4 kind of gives it away.
