    No it’s not a competition, I’ve been to 8 so by my rules you’d be in front of me in the queue. I’m sure you’ll be a bit miffed if you’ve been to Exeter 3 times and can’t get a Harrogate ticket.

    No there won’t, it’s season ticket holders only and it’s now sold out

    And that’s my point, you shouldn’t have to. At your leisure you should be able to login to the online ticket site and claim a ticket if you want one.
    The only people on here opposed to the idea of using points is the people who haven’t attended enough games.

    First come first served.. And to hell with the rest of them..

    Scrap the loyalty and point. All that does is cause division.

    Remember YOU are no different or better than your fellow bantam.

    Simple innit.

    1. Check out the away capacity
    2. Find out whose is lowest (ie Harrogate @650 etc)
    3. Only sell that number of loyalty cards.

    Anything else is the club being greedy.

    Apart from @Loyalbantam@Loyalbantam who has suggested queuing, it will be first come first served online as it was for the second leg of the play off semi final at Fleetwood.

    Sometimes it not worth trying to put information out there for fellow fans that you have been told by the club.

    The problem with the queue at the ticket office for games where there’s only 500 tickets is that if the ticket queue opens at 10am and people have been queuing longer than you and you get there after it opens , you’re already too late.
    It’s pot luck whether you’re one of the first 150-200 people lucky enough to join the queue at the ticket office at precisely the right time.
    On that basis I think stopping fecking moaning is probably best on this occasion.

    What do you want the club to do? Bow down to your complete brilliance as a fan and put you at the front of every queue?

    No system is perfect for everyone, some find it better to get their shit together and queue in the cold, some find it better to get their shit together and log on to the website and keep hitting F5 until the system is open.

    Club made the rules at the start of the season, limited number of tickets and some are going to be disappointed whether it’s Harrogate or Chelsea away or Reading at home.

    Away loyalty points aren’t perfect, the fan who lives local to Exeter gets the same points as someone travelling from Bradford, and then gets the same access to tickets based on points. Is Rochdale and Oldham midweek more a dedicated fan than one easy trip down the ECML on a Saturday to Stevenage?

    Like I say club make the rules, you buy your loyalty card on those terms. No use bleating about it mid season when you can’t get your own way.

    I think most reasonable adults would see it that way. Some you win, some you lose.

    Why don’t you ring up Man united and see how they distribute tickets for away games and then you’ll realise how shit this club is at organising stuff.

    And those scenes are absolutely abhorrent when the club have it in their power within minutes to allocate tickets to those with the most points. I despair I really do

    Why would I ring up when it’s probably on their website?
    Manchester United can sell out all of their away games, could probably fill the stadium at places like Brentford, every city, town and village in the world has Man Utd fans. You can bet whatever their system is some people bellyache about it. It won’t be perfect
    Bradford City can sell out a handful of away games, they put a system in place, it’s not perfect, you can’t please everyone all of the time.

    Man United away scheme is simple .
    Can only buy online . No phone line or ticket office
    Have to be a paid away member .
    Put your bank details in when applying and check on a certain date to see if your successful or not .
    Non of this Bradford city ringing round too see who’s been to most games nonsense

    Just turn up, pay on the gate, no problem and no segregation at Harrogate. Simple
