Season Ticket Bolt On's 21:08 - Jul 26 with 1014 views | Southamptonfan | Can anyone shed any light on what these are. I don't want one, just want to understand why anyone would get one and whether it's fair. It says "Cup and away priority" for silver and gold. What does this mean? Those who have bought bolt on's can get an away ticket before those without bolt on's? So in practice, a fan with a gold bolt on who hasn't been to any away games quite fancies going to Bournemouth away, so gets priority over those who have have been to lots of away games? And if not, what's the point of the bolt on? At the same time, why should someone who has paid a lot more on away games but doesn't have the bolt on, miss out on away tickets?

In summary, you too could sit alongside some of our more experienced, superior social media fans / influencers…… [Post edited 26 Jul 21:37]

No priority on aways beyond the standard you get as season ticket holders, it’s just poorly worded. From what I’ve seen basically the bolt ons just get you differing amounts of club tat and nothing more | ![](/images/avatars/13008.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
Season Ticket Bolt On's on 00:04 - Jul 27 with 811 views | LondonSaint76 | Here you go Southamptonfan, this is from what came out when the ST prices were announced, it does not specify exactly what the cup and away ticket proprity consists of but I am guessing it is paid for queue jumping. I would hope this only means priority in a ballot but the bolt-on holder would still need the qualifing points and not being given priority with insufficient points to be able to enter the ballot under normal circumstances. Not that I agree with any of it as any erosion into the meagre allocations for away games at Bournemouth and Brentford at the expense of the most faithful 'ordinary' away fans is unacceptable. Here is the blurb: Take your 2024/25 Season Ticket to the next level with our Season Ticket bolt-ons. When you secure your seat for the 2024/25 campaign, you’ll have the option to add a silver, gold or platinum package to your order. What are bolt-ons? To help you make the most of the new season, we’ve created optional packages you can add to your Season Ticket order. They include added benefits like VIP events, framed shirts, gift packs and Hospitality upgrades, all offering money saving value. Silver - £75 As well as experiencing every home league game and having priority on cup and away games, for £75 you'll enjoy £90 worth of added value to your Season Ticket. Included in this package is an enhanced gift pack and £70 worth of retail vouchers across the season allowing you to kit yourself out in new Saints merchandise. Gold - £150 If you upgrade to the Gold Package, you will get all the benefits from the Silver Package, plus you can upgrade one match-day to our Hospitality Bar package for you and one other to watch Saints in style, totalling £200 worth of added value for just £150. Platinum - £500 Elevate your experience to the fullest and in turn, add over £750 worth of value to your package for £500. Including home league tickets, cup and away priority, an enhanced gift pack, as well as so much more in the full Saints experience. Enjoy £70 worth of retail vouchers across the season, a Hospitality Dining Upgrade for a game for you and another, a VIP Event, and a framed replica shirt as part of your Season Ticket. | ![](/images/avatars/29611.gif) |

Season Ticket Bolt On's on 00:21 - Jul 27 with 798 views | Southamptonfan | Thanks for the responses. Who an earth would spend a load more money for a few vouchers for the shop, some unwanted tat of the club's choice and a shirt, when you could just get a shirt for less than the bolt on? £200 worth of key rings and scarves for the price of £150 just seems like nonsense. I can certainly see how a few might be tempted to pay more, to jump the queue for away tickets, but that wouldn't be fair. Priority on cup and away games, which is what you get as a ST holder anyway? Hmm, don't understand these bolt ons at all. [Post edited 27 Jul 0:27]

The bolt on's do not give you any better access to tickets, the Silver (£75) one just gets you a code to exchange for a home/away shirt, then later in the season you will get another voucher to spend on whatever you want. Plus there is a gift pack (whatever that is!!) | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
