I know you're on the wind up, but what would be the commercial benefit to the club of doing that?

We’re actually getting MORE Loyalty points than normal Season ticket holders Edgy…….


For very obvious reasons…..

Well, Prem Package crowd arn't putting any money into the club next season. You may have put a little bit more than standard ST holders over 3 years or so....... but standard ST holders have put more in than concessions, but they get the same points.

There's no commerical benefit unless they give the option to pay the going rate to get your loyalty points (but you're not ready for that conversation yet 👀 ).

It just feels right that people putting money in this season, get the benefits this season. Can't have freeloaders snapping up away tickets.

Couple of weeks ago, someone I kind of know said that he'd heard there would be a token amount of points for each year that people put into the Prem Package but that would be all they got.

I believe the guy works in the warehouse at Tesco so I'm not sure how he would come by such information and I didn't really pay much attention to it as it doesn't affect me but it kind of makes sense.

Didn't say how many points but 25 would sound about right to reflect the additional cost of the Prem Package tickets each year.

I can't see it. Seems to be very little benefit for the club and you'd end up with 5K very unhappy supporters who will be quick to point out that at no point in the past has points been linked to the price of a ticket.

If we were going down that route you'd need to apply it across the board, points removed for people who purchased concession tickets, extra points for people that purchased single match tickets instead of season tickets, more points for premium zone tickets and hospitality.

You'd be opening a whole can of worms for no reason.
 
For well seasoned travellers it wouldn’t make any difference. For this season’s point adjustment those with near max points, would probably still be over 2000 points 😀

I know. It's purely hearsay and, like I said, the guy is not exactly a reliable source but thought I would share when I saw someone mentioning the extra points.

He's probably got (or been given) the wrong end of the stick.

I know the tickets they give to Personal Assistants of disabled supporters for free have loyalty points attached (or at least they used to) so I can't see it myself.

They don’t, at least not in our case.

I've actually been there by choice in past, not a view I'd recommend, for the older generation West Hams scheme of making them walk to somewhere at the back seemed to be unpopular.
 
We just need to calm down and "NEEEVVVVEEERRR FORGET WHERE WE'VE COME FROM" because were a different club now.

Just a 61% increase in cost per game for me next season. Thank fuck my season ticket is free!
 
Anyone use car park C I’m thinking of getting a pass this year if possible.
Is it easier to get away from after the match?. We currently park by novatel and walking up Wilson’s lane but have to leave early or we stuck in traffic for ages.
Prefer the train from Bedworth but that’s getting very popular now. Failing that it’s Bedworth supporter club coach from Bulkington.

That would be shit - If they had advertised at the time it would have altered your standing in the pecking order for away tickets I would have signed myself up

I use car park C.

It can take a good while to get out and then you can only turn right so if you're heading to Bedworht, you'll get stuck in traffic as you head back away from the city. In total, at least an hour up to 90 mins to get home (Nuneaton).

What I've started doing is, wait for the road to re-open (usually around 30 mins) and just head down the A444 and I'm home in 15 mins.
 
I’m thinking Monday. No reason outside of it’s the earliest day the ticket office is back open

I use it, have done for years. Entirely depends if you hang around and leave the ground slowly or get away fairly quick.

We generally leave the ground immediately at final whistle and can be home south of Coventry within 25-30mins of leaving the turnstile. The road closure and traffic light adjustment means we get out super quickly.

If you hang around and enjoy the atmosphere for a while after the game it can be awful to get out of, bottle neck is pretty pants.
