    I was in the Boro end, just to the right of the away fans.

    Let's just say I was relieved to be escorted out by the stewards!

    It's not like you to talk absolute bollox is it.

    I have 8 season tickets in my in friends and family and I tend to buy the tickets for most of us, seeing as 3 are under 16, one works shifts, 2 have manual jobs and one is a teacher, my job allows me the chance to log on and buy tickets when on sale at 9am. By buying them together we can sit together.

    Everyone who has a season ticket had the same chance to get a ticket.

    If we go to Wembley are you suggesting we should all log on and get our own?

    BTW the reason they are buying them on the season ticket window is because they haven't been to most away games this year, those who have already had their chance to buy.

    So what the frig are you going on about?

    You do know 11 season tickets were used to buy 11 tickets?

    If I took the wife's car down to Fordy's car wash, would he refuse to wash it unless she brought it down herself?

    My arbitration on @Fordy117@Fordy117 stance and the 11 season tickets is ...

    He's talking bo!!ocks....time to stop feeding the fisherman.

    Supporting a football club isn't like going to your local car wash!

    Let's give you a real life example based on your suggested approach. One fan usually buys 3 tickets under the Friends & Family scheme for himself and his two friends.. He lives the closest to VP with about a 1.5hrs car drive each way. One of his mates lives on the far side of Chester - over 2hrs away and the other one lives near Buxton, another 2 hrs journey to VP.

    What should we do if the only option under your proposal is for each of us to collect our tickets from the ticket office?

    I’ve just read the last 3 pages of this thread @Fordy117@Fordy117 and I simply cannot understand your argument.
    If you were on my friends and family I wouldn’t be able to buy you a ticket unless you had enough points.
    When 1 person buys for all their friends / family the loyalty points are added to each member.

    Of course you can never stop someone with enough points getting a ticket and selling it on.
    I know people who have season tickets at Liverpool who go to 5 games a season and sell their ST to friends when they don’t go.
    I also know a lad who got a Man Utd away ticket for Leeds and he’s never been to a United away game ever. It happens, get over it.

    but I think you’ll find that in our case the people eligible to buy a Carlisle ticket will be attending. They are unlikely to be selling it on.

    <Shakes head in disbelief>

    I'm coming to the conclusion that some of your posts on this subject are simply designed to goad other posters! I don't imagine for one moment that you are so stupid or unaware as to believe in what you've suggested. ;)

    Seems we have given them just shy of 2.5k tickets.
    Hopefully they will give us the usual and behind the goal too in reply.

    The league/sky already had to change the planned schedule once because SYP objected to the league one timings. If the police object, it changes.

    Anyone get the feeling that Carlisle are going to give us the absolute minimum number of tickets for the away leg.

    Terrible view if you end up in the end seats. Have to watch at a weird angle as you are some way past the dead ball line.

    I'd get it if we had given the whole stand but can not see any security benefit, only negatives

    It was the boxing day game. No trains and one of those places which you expect postponements.

    If we took 1300 mid season we will easily take whatever they give us.
