    I read Barrow have increased the away end to 950, so should avoid the scramble for tickets as in previous seasons.

    They don't have to give these new seats to the away fans as they only have to give 10% of the capacity which even with the new seats 650 would be enough. If they really wanted to they could open them up to home fans and they would still be within league rules but they probably know they won't be needed by home fans so as they paying to have them installed they might as well get some money for them from away fans especially with so many Northern clubs in league 2 this season.

    If they didn't use this new stand for away fans, not only would they have to install additional segregation, but the remaining away section would not meet the 10% requirement.

    So a majority of fans are not happy with the current format of the loyalty scheme - club will take that as an excuse for changing it.

    strange that most questions people were happy with the points given and yet a majority were not happy with the overall scheme

    I don't get why so many people are against awarding points when buying merch etc. Most away fans who regularly travel will have bought merch in some form or other. Why not garner more points for doing something you would do anyway?

    For example 50 points for buying a shirt would make sense equivalent in value to two and a half away games @ £20 a game.

    I agree with this.

    I'm not sure purchases at the club should necessarily be weighted the same £-wise as actually traveling when then ultimate benefit is priority access to away tickets, but a point for every £X spent makes sense to me and encourages higher revenue for the club.

    That's not a majority being unhappy. It's actually a plurality of fans being happy. You can't count unsures as unhappy. They'll split (relatively) roughly the same percentage as the actual Yes/No votes.

    Because you are about 50 and look like a Twit in City top.

    Why should points be given for purchasing kits etc. If you want one just buy one.

    I don't really care either way, but as I said a few posts up, in house purchases could be lower weighted meaning those who travel still end up at the front of the queue whilst encouraging greater revenues.

    Though admittedly that does start to make the scheme overly complex.

    But the more savvy folk would work out that no matter how many pies / pints they buy wouldn’t equate to the same amount of points as those who travel up and down the country week in week out.
    There have been ample opportunities over the last 2 seasons to attend away games to build up points but because there’s ‘nothing riding on it’ (someone on here uses that phrase a lot), then they couldn’t be arsed.
    Yet fast forward to games with ‘everything riding on it’ they expect to get a ticket.
    Well as GAYLE says in her song ABCDE Feck you.

    As I've mentioned previously, the position has been complicated by the fact that not all allocated points are being shown in people's purchase history. This makes it very difficult to check your points total is correct.

    Fortunately, as mentioned in the 'Supporters Board Meetings / Minutes' thread the Club "have started process of finding a new ticketing partner. This will also address some of the Loyalty Point issues fans have experienced too".

    45.59% like the current format, so a majority do not agree with that statement. So 54.41% didn't say they liked the current format
