Most liked posts in thread: Away Priority 2021/22

Where have I said or suggested that, once again totally irrelavent to my question.
I sas thinking it might have been that one fan could take 5/10 of his mates/family tickets down to the ticket office and get tickets for them.
I went to the Millwall game by the way.

 

They wouldnt have been if it had been in the old "shed end'" for sure, different world down there, talk about North/South divide.

 

Yes there were rumours at the time that certain supporter branches got tickets for the Fleetwood away game, which was a little annoying if true as we were told they would go on sale for priority ticket holder from 9am on the Monday morning I got straight into the ticketing site and low and behold they'd all been sold.

 

Are the priority tickets numbered for games like Harrogate where there will be less tickets than priority members?

 

Don’t they just count as loyalty points so they give you a head start? I might be wrong but I read it as that, I.e if you got one but don’t go to any away games those that go regularly even if they don’t have one will be ahead in the queue. Or is that starting next season?

 

yep but surely if it was going to include league games they should already know that as they will already know the allocations for the matches.

 

Doesn't the away card give you 50 points buy buying it, so if you bought one and only went to 5 away games, then you will have amassed 10 away games worth of points from just 5 games?

That would give you a bit of a head start in the points system.

 

Agreed but not as many as the 500 odd fans who will have been to all 23 away games

 

But you don't need to have that many points to get tickets, the actual requirement is likely to be some distance from that. If an allocation is 2000 tickets then to meet the requirements you will probably fall into a group that are some distance of being at every game to get one.

 

I think a fair few will have bought them for specific games rather than going to a lot of games

 

For a start my daughter's ex boyfriend and his mate managed to get tickets and go, both support Liverpool and only go to VP very occasionally but got tickets because their mate worked for BCFC. I couldn't get two (both of us 25 yearers) because the ticket system said I'd bought two Millwall replay tickets and my friend hadn't bought one.

 

I cant remember the condition that we're required to get a Chelsea ticket and as I posted I went down to the ticket office to see if they were still selling priority tickets.
I was there when the ticket office opened I don't think anyone had given a thought to priority tickets so I got 3, I came home and logged into C&B and told anyone who wanted a priority to get down to the ticket office,around 30 minutes after I'd posted that they were taken off sale.

 

Well now that the club have finally introduced a true loyalty scheme it should prevent the chancers from gaining an advantage in future.
But I’m sure “I went to Wigan in the cup brigade” will shout from the rooftops when they can’t get an away ticket.
Watching on ifollow via a VPN is great but won’t give you any loyalty points

 

Yeah the issue was people were turning up and passing tickets to mates further down the queue. So the stewards had to go down the line and give you a card for how many tickets you had I think? Memory is a bit hazy

 

Mr Ford would call it thinking on your feet.

 

Exactly the reason I bought ours, if they can accommodate us fine if not we get first dibs, but that's nothing to do with loyalty

 

Yes as you say what could it be called, I'm not asking for any acknowledgement with regards my time watching Bradford City it's just been a very big part of mine and my families life, they knew if we have a game I'm usually there, I'm sure there are many on here with similar mileage as me and others who will keep their alegence to our club and support us through thick & thin.
