    All this bed wetting going on about "true" supporters not being able to get in to the glamour game of Harrogate away because of some plastic Johnny Come Lately with an away priority card is just ridiculous. There are 14 away games prior to the Harrogate match, each of those is worth 10 points so if that's not enough to overtake someone who hasn't been to any away matches but has an away priority card worth 50 points in their back pocket then quite quite frankly - tough.

    Get off the fence @Fuzzy@Fuzzy ;),
    I don't think the loyalty points accrued this season will come into play until next season by then we could be in league one and even less problems fitting our away support in.

    The 1000 available away priority cards sold out within hours so there is a possibility that fans who trawl around the country didn’t have the opportunity to purchase one.

    Points earned from away games this season do not take effect until next season.

    Yeah because Fleetwood, Cambridge, Cheltenham, Morecambe , Burton, Wimbledon, Crewe, Accy all have massive away stands. Lol

    Any idea how many of the 1,000 cards were set aside for use by the various travel clubs?

    No they didn't.

    I got mine a few days after they went on sale.

    They took about 5 days to sell out

    Fans were given plenty of prior notice if they were serious about buying one.
    The club announced them on 3rd August and put them on sale on 8th August then announcing they had sold out on 12th August.
    As some have posted it will be different next
    season but it won't be a problem as most League Ond clubs can accommodate our away following.

    Take the semi final game away as we know Fleetwood didn’t want 1,000s of City fans attending and Burton being similar have the above clubs mentions actually limited Bradford Citys away support, and if the answers yes then more reason why the likes of yourself who attends all away games needed to purchase a priority card surely ?.

    As did I, I can’t claim to be as loyal as the mighty loyal bantam but I do my fair share and bought one so I don’t risk missing out again should we get another Chelsea or Fleetwood situation. Two games I was gutted to miss and for £30 quid I won’t be making the same mistake this season just in case. Some of our attendances down south are only around 350-400 and I imagine that includes bantams who’ve moved down there. So we probably only have around 200 fans who go to every game religiously they easily had enough time to get one.

    Won’t be an issue next season anyway so he’ll have one less thing to whinge about.

    Even though I purchased priority cards for me and the grandson the 2016/17 season when we got to Wembley with Stuart I logged into the ticketing page at 9am when it opened and all the priority tickets had gone.
    There was rumour after the game that supporters groups had been given priority/priority which I thought was unfair if true but you win some you lose some.

    Wasting your time with this guy Bronco, he's on a mission. Either that or it's the Fosters factor.

    As has been posted previously Loyalty points will kick in next season, it wil be interesting to see if the club offer priority cards again, would they say a priority cardis worth xxx points to add to those fans have accumulated over the past season.
    Lets be honest 1000 tickets raised £30,000 something a league one club shouldn't be ignoring.

    £30k not to be sniffed at especially as probably losing around £250k from iFollow
