Priority Status Information

Exeter City FC operates ticket sales for some fixtures on a priority basis, such as high profile league fixtures or cup matches. Your priority status is determined by a number of qualifying criteria as outlined below:

During the gold and silver and bronze phases each member will be eligible to purchase one ticket for each home league match. Gold and silver members may purchase additional tickets in the Bronze phase or later. The club reserves the right to adjust this should operational needs demand.

Different ticket restrictions maybe in place for any cup ties.

GOLD: Supporters who hold three or more years of continuous membership of Exeter City Supporters’ Trust (at the time of the fixtures release for sale or a cup fixture is drawn).

SILVER: Supporters who are fully paid-up members of Exeter City Supporters’ Trust (at the time of the fixtures release for sale or a cup fixture is drawn). This recognises Exeter City Supporters’ Trust as the primary group.

Please note that season ticket holders who are not members of the Exeter City Supporters’ Trust, will not qualify for silver membership, even if they are a member of another affiliated supporters’ group.

BRONZE: Non-Trust members who are season ticket holders or fully paid-up members of any one or more of the affiliated supporters’ groups (at the time of the fixtures release for sale or a cup fixture is drawn).
