Yep, I've been moved twice now. Yesterday I got moved from front row block 333 to front row block 332. Had another call today to move me from 332 which is now the segregation area to block 231 which ironically is what I wanted originally but couldn't get due to it being allocated to Club London.
I reckon we have taken 5k, 7k at the very most?
Judging by this we must be taking around 3,500, usual 3k league away end plus block 331 in the upper tier.
Be plenty of spares available for this too I imagine.
I bought E235 about 7pm last Friday which is lower tier 2nd block from usual away supporters area and haven't been moved.
That's what I was allocated and it didn't give me an option to buy the usual away area.

They probably just told the kid there is 160 tickets left & he just presumed it’s from 9k allocation, whereas in reality they have cut it to 5/6k
Agree, otherwise I can't see why I have been moved twice?

This looks right - 6k allocation on the club site now
They know the price of everything and the value of nothing.
Would easily be 9,000 there especially with the offer of coaches.
And......what's with the prices???
Youll be lucky to see stadiums half full in a year.
Edit I was talking about the club not continuing to sell tickets not individuals selling them. However I'm happy to be corrected if the demand wasn't there for 9,000.

Hopefully all that want a ticket will get one. 6000 is still a fantastic effort by our fans.
These are the people who need to be lauded as the "beloved" of West Ham.
Sadly still quite a few selling for the point - plans change I know that, but some openly saying they can buy for others if they want tickets. No intention of going...hopefully they'll get their fingers burned
Didn’t the club commit a few years ago to always take the highest allocation possible?
Whilst I appreciate demand for 9k - on a Wednesday night at £46 a ticket without any offered assistance from the club - has meant it’s reached members without selling out, another promise has been broken by those who run the club.
If 6000 is right then that means 3000 minimum who decided to not bother.
I can not do the numbers but what is the clubs cut of 3000x£46.
And is it more than what it would have cost to lay on some free coaches.

Why? If people who haven’t got points are asking and others who have points aren’t going what’s the problem?
If it was a small allocation it would be different but on this occasion we are talking 6k reduced from 9k so anyone with points who wanted a ticket would have got one.
