It was similar last season. I get the points system but it is a vicious cycle. If you have points, you get away tickets, get more points...so in effect you're points are growing at a faster rate as everyone else. Its become a closed shop.
Shop was open before we were doing well though ay
Did they do that? All I saw was them saying if you have 1500 points don't enter the ballot.
Maybe 100 went to players / staff for their families
I’m like the Oracle.
They’ll sell out and the away end will be emptyI’m like the Oracle.
Dont suppose you've got next week's lottery numbers mate?I’m like the Oracle.
Chance of points for those below 1500. Just the 400 odd mile round trip mid week. Will be like last year at Millwall. £10-15, 30 points we sell out to the 1500+’s but the away end 1/2 full.
What’s the allocation? Can see the top tiers wanting tickets as it’s a bonus 20 points and a small allocation, so they’re further protectedI’m like the Oracle.
Same
Midweek, away and cup, think we get 30
63.
Don't agree. Mostly same fans go to all away matches. Hardly fair. All season ticket holders who want to go to an away match should be included in a draw. Closed shop should end.
Was it unfair when it was the same faces turning up to the less appealing fixtures?
Some of us don't want to go to every away match. Doesn't mean that those that do should get the full set. Give another City fan the opportunity now & again.
It’s not become a closed shop. Plenty of games last season and the season before went to general sale
Just the main games.
You get that many by going to the likes of Cardiff away on new years day, Sheffield Wednesday away, West Brom away on a Tuesday night, Millwall away on a Tuesday night - all games that went to general sale.
Yes but we are in a different place now.
I think it will become pretty much a closed shop this season, but people have been calling it that for a while now, but it hasn't been.
Appreciate its your opinion, but why is it unfair just out of interest ?
By different place I guess you mean we’ll be playing at Arsenal this season rather than Barnet. Did you want to go Barnet?
So you just want to go to Villa or Man Utd then but should get priority over those that travel to every game
You're absolutely right on this. I've had my share of going to away games for the past 40 years, so it's only fair that I stand aside and let you and your mates go to the Hill Dickinson, WHL & The Etihad. I hope you all have a lovely time. Would you be kind enough to post on the match chat please so I can still keep up with the score?
You can be included in a draw, but an away membership.
Myself and many others have only had ten points added so far?!I've just discovered we get a bonus 10 points being an evening game for Arsenal. Imagine quite a lot of games will be moved so should stretch our lead over those not going quite comfortably and make it even easier to secure tickets later in the season. Happy days sll round, cheers Doug
