    Like I said, the club never seem to learn from previous feck ups.
    It’s quite possible that we’ll play Newport in the playoffs , leaving 1000 fans disappointed and the lucky ones tired and cold from camping outside VP for hours

    Why would folk need to camp outside? Now that you don’t need a physical card and a Priority is added to your online account, the tickets would surely be available via the website?

    Well that was the same for Fleetwood play off tickets but folk still started queuing from about 4am the morning of sale, me included. Not sure if tickets were available online and if they were nobody trusted the website

    I believe for the Fleetwood game they went online to priority ticket holders at 9am, I logged on at 9am and got an error message, I came out closed the City website down by the time I got back into the Fleetwood tickets they'd be sold, then we were told suporter branches had been given tickets, I don't know if that was true or not at the time I was a little annoyed, but as the majority I watched it on Sky with a couple of beers to console me ;).

    I rest my case about taking your chances online. Much safer to queue at the office if you are able to do so.
    Anyway the general argument here is that the club shouldn’t over subscribe the away priority tickets or they risk this same scenario next May

    I recon people maybe getting ahead of themselves on here, especially with the season we just had and our recent history of L2. I won't be rushing out to buy one nor will I be dissapointed to miss out on Newport away.

    But at some point in the future people will be disappointed . You mention our recent history ? Have you seen how many times we’ve had ticketing problems recently

    Only one match needs citing in opposition to your argument. Chelsea away.
    Anyone with a Priority Away ticket got to go. Many without didn't.
    The best live football experience of my life (better even than Villa away or West Ham beating Arsenal in the FA Cup Final 1980) made possible by a meagre outlay on a priority away ticket.
    You just never know what may be around the corner.

    Andy from Corn Dolly spoke to Mick Lamb over a week ago I think and they had sold over 900 or so at that stage.

    Hopefully they’ve been sensible and capped it at 1000

    Got mine. Helps get an early chance for away tickets when you want one. Don’t miss many away games normally sort out travel arrangements well in advance at cheaper rates.

    If you go to away games no brained, buy the priority card.
