    Ha ha never miss a trick Mr Loyal, maybe the majority of priority member don't have £1000 to bung on a bet as you claim.
    Come back and debate loyalty to Bradford City when you have 65 years in traveling to away games to watch Bradford City light weight.

    Well I can’t add years to my age but I’m willing to bet that in my 40 years of travelling away to city games, my average games per season may supercede yours.

    You love your bets, when you've put your £1000 bet on post it on here or its no better than your highlighted comment.
    I accept the club have to start somewhere with regards a loyalty scheme and its been long overdue, my reply was more about your sad comment with regards "priority pass" holders you seem to have a problem with them.

    I have an away priority pass because I actively attend away games. Sadly there are people who buy one who do not routinely attend. That’s my problem with it.

    No one is stopping the people who 'routinely attend' away games from buying a priority pass, are they? If they can afford the expense of frequent away trips then they can easily afford a one-off £30 for a priority pass. They are also highly likely to be fully on top of club news so should be in a position to get in quickly to snap them up. There's plenty of notice given so it's easy for them to go online and snap one up on the first day of sale. If they choose not to, that's their stupid fault.
    If others, who only attend a few games, choose to buy one as insurance, that's their prerogative.

    wait for the complaints that you have to buy tickets through VP rather than pay on the gate to get your points

    I think you might have missed my point. I would fully expect the frequent away fans to have bought one and nobody is suggesting those people including myself will miss out.
    I just don’t agree with the fans who simply have to spend £30 to guarantee themselves a playoff semi final ticket at Salford or Harrogate for example and the fans who trawl to Exeter, Colchester etc could miss out

    You're guaranteed first dibs it doesn't matter if the other 999 don't attend all away games, you sound a bit of a control freak, you have one yet dictate why others should or shouldn't have one, any nearer with your £1000 wager or was that just bravado on your part, look at me I can afford to a £1000 bet on Bradford City because I'm so loyal.

    You sound a bit defensive? Are you one of the folk who buys a priority pass to ensure you get premium away tickets?????…….
    Hmmmmmm yes you are because you’ve already admitted you bought one the day before Chelsea tickets went on sale. Lol.

    The comment above was meant for you after you said you bought a priority ticket for the coming season, "You're guaranteed first dibs it doesn't matter if the other 999 don't attend all away games".

    Why would I be defensive, I've have never made a secret with regards getting three priority tickets before buying three Chelsea tickets "thinking on my feet" they were still on sale so I took myself down to the ticket office and bought 3 whats your problem with that, anyone could have done the same.

    And the reason I've bought one this coming season is so I might be able to attend the smaller grounds where away attendances could be a problem, isn't that the very reason priority tickets were offered by the club, as well as getting extra revenue in £30,000.

    I don't tell fans how they should spend their money or Sataurday's unlike yourself, telling fans who don't attend as many away games as you are less loyal.

    Don't forget to post your £1000 bet on here when you make the it.

    Hmmmm, so if the other 999 fans were also ‘thinking on their feet’ where would it leave the fans who travel up and down the country when they can’t get a ticket for Harrogate away?
    At home listening on the radio like you next season when the priority passes come to an end. :)

    Dear oh dear, we are throwing our toys out of the pram. I spend £30 on a priority ticket so I can attend a game of I am not working. I also use my holidays to book days off so I can attend games home and away due to working continental shifts (at 64 years old)! I think I will change my name to Loyal1975citygent1975

    Not too sure why it's an issue for @Loyalbantam@Loyalbantam ,

    I've got away priority for the first time I'm off to Exeter but mainly bought then for the hgate and Salford game , I'm sure the rest of the away games there will be plenty to go round

    Every fan had the option to buy one !

    You pay your money you take your chance

    For the sake of £30 I would have thought as yourself it would be good insurance against that very point of not getting into the likes of Harrogate Town wouldn't you ?.

    I have purchased a priority card when they have been on offer for the very reason I've quoted, I'm not bothered about where that would leave other fans they have had chance to buy one as we have knowing games against the clubs with smaller ground capacity might be a problem getting into so buy a priority ticket.

    I can assure you now there will be away games that I won't be attending I don't have a problem with listening to the game on the radio that will be my choice, if I don't have enough priority points next season so be it, I can't think of more grounds in League One where our away support can't be accommodated, as Ryan says when we visit these clubs it's usually the biggest pay day of the season.
    Don't forget to post your betting slip on here Loyalbantam then we know you're a man of your word :unsure:.

    Don’t see @Loyalbantam@Loyalbantam problem under the loyalty scheme those that travel most will be given the highest priority so they won’t miss out on any games
