    That is on top of the money they then make from the tickets.

    Maybe they will charge to take part in the loyalty scheme

    But the priority wouldn’t help if we only get 800 tickets. You’re still going to have to be first 800 for example

    It would have to be a team very low down the amateur leagues who would only give us 800 tickets.

    Just out of interest, what's the away allocation at Morecambe? It's one of the 2 games I could see when I come over in October.

    Edit. Found it, about 1400, might be problematic.

    Some teams advertise tickets on a points basis.
    So for example

    +100 points get first dibs
    +80 second dibs
    +60 third dibs
    Then when all point accumulations have been done it goes on general sale

    Think the discussion is more around earning the points

    Ye, just heard some people questioning how the tickets will then be distributed to fans

    FA Cup rule is minimum 15% of capacity, about a 5300 capacity, so Fleetwood and Accrington spring to mind as clubs who could only hand over 800 or so tickets if they wanted to for a cup tie. Presumably Salford too. Two of those are higher in the pyramid than City and the third might well be in twelve months.

    Actually in the League it’s minimum 2000 tickets or 10% of the capacity of the stadium holds fewer than 20,000. So City have to offer at least 2,000 away tickets unless they get permission from the league for less. Accrington with a 5,450 stadium need to offer a minimum of 545 to City fans in the league or about 815 for the Cup. Up to them if they want to offer more if the away end holds enough.

    In theory clubs in the league only have to give us 10% of the capacity if they really wanted to as they have capacities under 20k which is the problem with deciding where to cut off priority tickets so with a capacity of 5,100 Salford could offer us 510 if they wanted to with points system we can now choose whether we have set bands for when tickets go on sale i.e. 1st sales is 500+ or we can change it from game to game so the top 510 so the top people all have a chance to get a ticket then move it down in small chunks.

    That fits in with earlier comments; would be nice if their was some official confirmation. If that is correct that means their should be enough tickets for every Priority member, at least as far as the regular league matches are concerned.

    According to the Morecambe ticket office they say around 1,800 away tickets will be available for that game.

    A lot of clubs just give a day for their priority people and then step down

    Well hopefully I'll be able to get hold of a ticket, get in that morning and might just have time to get there. We'll see.

    Out of curiosity how long a period of sale do you suggest? The fixture list was published in June. Why is it a ridiculously short period? Priority holders get a window before ST's.

    Three day window.
    Friday ticket office shut when finished work.
    Saturday morning only sales at VP
    Closed Sunday.
    Three days priority on line that's short in my book.
    Just for the record I purchased Saturday on line but still feel a week would have been more appropriate length of time for Priority followed by Season Ticket holders.
