I'm in London this week. That 8am to 11am window is going to cause me some issues.

2017 was different from memory. Priority 2 was GOLD plus Platinum and Priority 3 was silver. Our allocation was exhausted in Priority 2 … which meant that some platinum members missed out as well as some gold.
this year (and last) they changed it so that Priority 2 is platinum only and priority 3 is gold.
So I am not sure you can use 2017 as a guide to this year sorry.

Does anyone know how many of each category we have? I am gold but concerned that there will be none left for that category.

Not sure Tiger44. I remember in 2017, the club released the numbers to someone on here to give a better indication, I'll have a snoop

Funny we are charged a $5 non-refundable fee at time of registration to cover administration costs and Collingwood members get charged $6 according to their website.

In 2017 two of us (Gold Members then) each got GF standing room tickets via the ballot - and reckon we were lucky.

This year we upgraded our memberships to one of the Priority 1 membership categories i.e. guaranteed GF seats even though we’d become Platinum Members in the meantime.

Our take was that there would be little or no chance chance of getting tickets via the ballot simply based on the bigger member numbers overall and likely more Priority 1 members as well.

Don’t know if that’s right or wrong or if it helps anyone at this stage.

T44

it has been discussed a lot. i would estimate gold/priority 3 members would have somewhere between a 25%-33% chance dependent on how many people choose to register.
