    I finally looked at mine today and have 1280 points. Can't even be arse looking to see if I've got any missing, I'll miss the Northampton game but I'll live.

    But if you got the 460 points for your home games (attended or other wise) keeping tabs on your total would be easy, pre season friendlies, cup games etc, but the main factor being away games you have bought tickets for, yet you may not attend, the club don't know yet no loyalty points would be deducted as they are for missing a home game, it's a bag of worms mate.
    I took my Crewe ticket back as I couldn't make the midweek game, yes I'm a tight old bugger ;).

    The only thing I can find on my purchase history is iFollow stuff. I have an app with my season tickets on there, so might be looking in the wrong place. Any help greatly appreciated. Why is it so difficult?

    Yes, thank you I eventually found it. I have some missing, but I will need to go through my diary as I didn’t attend some matches. However, they did receive the money for my ST. It does seem a backward system, whereby you suffer a jeopardy if you don’t attend. The problem the club have is trying to accommodate what is usually oversubscribed away fans. ST holders were usually first in the queue for tickets. Fans who hadn’t bought one had to rely on ST holders or wait and hope. So now we have a system that not only do you pay for your ST but you have to attend. I haven’t been to any away games this season as it seems like too much hard work trying to work out how many points is required, but tbh honest I haven’t wanted to go, as I can watch it on iFollow.

    Not so sure. I printed a full list a couple of pages back. But we took just short of 5,000 to Doncaster and well over 3,200 to Rochdale. Twelve of this seasons away games have apparently been sold out.

    The following in bold look like they could sell out.

    Accrington; 2300 (likely to be relegated)
    Barnsley: 4700
    Bolton: 3000 (can be increased to 5000)
    Bristol Rovers: 1100
    Burton: 1400
    Cambridge: 1600 (can be increased to 2600)
    Charlton: 3000
    Cheltenham: 1100
    Derby: 2700
    Exeter: 1300
    Fleetwood: 1131
    Forest Green: 1200 (plus a sheep pen)[Relegated]
    Ipswich: 1900
    Lincoln: 1000+
    Milton Keynes: 3000 (plus extra capacity)
    Morecambe: 1700 (likely to be relegated)
    Oxford: 5000
    Peterborough: 1800
    Plymouth: 2022
    Port Vale: 4500
    Sheffield Wednesday: 8000
    Shrewsbury: 1796
    Wycombe: 2,350

    Current League 1 ‘away’ supporters capacity. https://footballgroundguide.com/leagues/england/league-one.html

    If one of Salford/Stockport/Mansfield go up then again the capacity will potentially struggle to meet the needs of our travelling support.

    Do you keep from one season to another? I have only 1110, but I am a few short.

    Maybe they will award them to iFollow subscribers;)

    The 12 sold out games is a little misleading as it includes Harrogate/Hartlepool/Barrow with 600 capacity each. We'd have a problem if we weren't selling those out.

    Overall, it will be less of an issue. Not perfect, but much less of an issue.
    We wouldn't sell out the vast majority of games in League One.

    Yeah but that’s irrelevant to loyalty points.

    As far as I’m aware every single match this season has had tickets available to season ticket holders.

    Has there actually been a points only away game so far where tickets were sold out before reaching ST holders?

    Yes I missed out on the Northampton game. I also missed out on the Harrogate game. They were only available to other season ticket holders with a higher number of ‘Loyalty’ Points.

    As far as I understand it they only went on sale to Season Ticket holders with higher number of ‘Loyalty Points’. They did not go on sale to general season ticket holders. You had to have a certain number of ‘Loyalty Points’ to qualify.

    Northampton definitely went on sale to season ticket holders (with no points requirement), as I managed to grab one on the Friday morning

    What do you suggest? You make some very valid points. However, trying to identify a fair scheme is beyond me. The first come first served ST holders was about as fair as it comes, but lots of ppl complained.

    I agree that if it is purely an away priority scheme' then the club should call it that. It isn't called that, but some people have just assumed (it seems incorrectly) that that's all it is.

    So just to keep this updated….

    today there was a steward at out MR turnstile who looked at everyone’s tickets from a distance, then said “yeah he’s ok” to the turnstile operator who then let us through. No scanning. No loyalty points added to our accounts - yet…..
