For anyone at that game last season, im not surprised they’ve taken action in the form of an early kick off / reduced capacity.
We didn’t see the trouble outside after due making a hasty exit with the kids because of the problems inside.
It was vile. Aggressive, pack mentality, clearly drugs and alcohol induced. The policing of it was poor on the night (let it escalate too far whilst watching on).
Unfortunately it’s decent fans who will miss out because of that minority (which by the way is unfortunately more than a handful)

 

Now that's loyalty for you....

 

You superfans asked for priority.

Suck it up, buttercup.

 

Glad it helped someone if the post highlighted it to you.

 

If people have bought a season ticket, they should get the points if they go or not. The ticket has been bought. Falling ill and staying away, car breaking down, work commitments, etc don't take away the fact you paid for a ticket and if like some games last year they are using you as part of the attendance even if you are not there, then they should hand out the points.

On another note I have a friend who is a season ticket holder, has been for 30 odd years but is also a fireman, he can't pick and choose his work pattern, nor even if he was due to be off decide to leave one of the many Mill fires in Bradford to head to the ground. Loyalty plays no part in missing games.

 

You were looking forward to this year. Best idea ever according to you because you were guarentee tickets.

Fast forward a couple of week into the season and you already want it scrapping because you can't sit with your mates?

 

The jolly to Italy meant that we have replica kits on sale which is more than can be said for our neighbours at Elland Rd and at most other clubs in the PL/EFL.

 

It's always over complicated.

So far we have seen 3 away games go on sale.

Barrow, sales had to be suspended due to people's points totals changing on a near hourly basis.

Colchester, loyalty points used for a game on a Tuesday night where we haven't historically took more than 400, pushing non season ticket holders into a 24 hour window to buy tickets at a discounted rate, the very people who are likely to be attending the game as they probably don't have a season ticket but live in the area.

Hartlepool, 30min of page refreshes after two tweets and a website news article saying the tickets were on sale, not to mention that at the same time they accidently somehow switched tickets to the Hull game to season tickets only.

When I bought my Hull ticket about 2 weeks ago I was under the impression it was for 10 loyalty points. Sales have been slow and all of a sudden news stories are saying its for 20 loyalty points. Why have the goalposts moved?

It's being seen to make what in theory is a simple system into a complete shambles that annoys people.

 

He is a she.

 

I have more points than my mate who I travel with so have to wait until his ‘ Band’ becomes available. He is never going to catch up on points so we’re stuck with this. I always buy the tickets so why can’t friends and family be given the same points as the person who’s account is buying tickets. People on lower points are never going to catch up either. I know we have to have some systems in place but this for me is a bit of a farce.

 

I do not trust the people scanning the barcodes into the ground anyhow. They seem to give it a few tries and just wave you through regardless.

 

As I posted last season both me and the grandson were ushered through several times as the stewards scanners were not working.
Its a complete nonsense to pay for your season ticket up front and then be penalised as you say if ill, on holiday or shift work etc and don't get your ticket scanned.

 

Just bring priority cards back.

 

So yes, you have deprived someone of a ticket. Keep digging

 

Hartlepool has always been renowned for potencial trouble, but you're correct the more I see of some of our traveling fans the less I feel like attending away games.
