Away ticket ballot entries... 12:25 - Aug 4 with 961 viewshoppy

Having never been successful in any ballot for away tickets in the last couple of years, does it make any difference to your success as to when you get in the ballot - ie, if you get bang on 12pm when they become active, is there any difference to your chances as someone else getting in it at 11.57am the following day just before that window closes?

Sorry not going to be much help, but I entered every ballot during the last Premier season and wasn’t successful in any. Tried different times, but didn’t make any difference.

Does anyone actually know someone that has been successful in the away ballot? I don't think I've ever seen someone say they were.

I got a ticket once in the last Prem season. Palace away. Don't think it makes any difference when you join the ballot, in response to the op

Would be a poorly operated ballot if there were! Was it 2% of seats last time too? Will mean a little over 1000 seats up for grabs over the whole season. We (sometimes two, sometimes three people) entered for roughly half the games in 24/25 without winning, which felt the predictable outcome at the time given scarcity.

I was for Fulham away 2 years ago. I don't think it makes any difference how early you apply to the ballot. It's a random selection. You've got as much chance if you apply in the last minute of the ballot window or the first.

I mean 2% of 3,000 is 60 tickets Max a game.

Even over 19 games that's only 1,140 and we know some away ends aren't even 3,000.

Its a really small amount so its not surprising. I wish it would be a higher % but I understand the loyal away fans get 98% of them!

In answer to the OP, it shouldn't matter, but who knows how the ballot is drawn

Absolutely no difference at all. My brother entered the Norwich ballot last season about an hour before it shut and won.

Out of 6 applications over 2 years got a total of 2 tickets so very difficult to get lucky

Friend of mine was successful twice(!) in the last PL season, compared to my record of zero

On both occasions they were entered linked to other family members for several tickets, which did make me wonder if having a linked entry increased your changes (ie. each individual being in the ballot as separate entries rather than the entry being collectively worth one)
