Has the Stan Cullis stand got a roof
Thanks H. Sorry if any offence caused @Leamington spa sky blue ! I was merely jumping in, and trying to be funny! Apologies.As a member of the aforementioned illuminati, and having interacted amicably with @Terry_dactyl , I thought I ought to act as peacemaker between the pair of you. @Leamington spa sky blue is a lovely bloke (but with occasional anger issues, as witnessed at several games!)
For the record, we receive no preferential ticket allocations, and have to scramble like everybody else in the queue. You two play nicely in the future and I hope I don't have to intervene any further
Is this a queue at Leamington supporters club HQ?As a member of the aforementioned illuminati, and having interacted amicably with @Terry_dactyl , I thought I ought to act as peacemaker between the pair of you. @Leamington spa sky blue is a lovely bloke (but with occasional anger issues, as witnessed at several games!)

Lad I know has over 2000 points , told me yesterday , felt like a right shit supporter stood next to him , so I now support bedworth united
Pure guess work!!How do you get 2000 pts? It’s 3 years rolling system.
My only gripe with the points system when it was first announced was that it only covered three years. It conveniently left out the L2 season, as well as those dross seasons in L1 before that. It rewarded those that only started going up during our rise just as much (or even less if they decided not to go to Birmingham for example) as it did those that were with us at the very bottom. How many season ticket holders did we have in L2? 6000 if that? Every one of those should get an extra 1000 permanent points, plus an extra 50 points for each away game attended that season.
I know a lad that used to laugh at me for going up every game back then who now sits on over 1500 points because he's been going home and away consistently in the Championship. He hasn't had to put up with the shit so he shouldn't be entitled to his pick of tickets now.
Attend every single game , including cups home and awayHow do you get 2000 pts? It’s 3 years rolling system.
Wimbledon, Watford and Wolves the only games that have sold out before the 800+ window I believe... so could've been to 19 away games so far!I think apart from Watford you'd have been able to buy away tickets to the other games with 830pts
Yellow kit?Wimbledon, Watford and Wolves the only games that have sold out before the 800+ window I believe... so could've been to 19 away games so far!
Must be something to do with the "W" teams!
Yellow kit?
Looking to support any form of superstition tbf!All fantastic away days?
The only issue is admin. On principle, I agree on a hybrid solution - the dans with highest points deserve ‘first pick’ and a proportion of an allocation to go to a ballot.
As @CJ_covblaze mentioned with the England system, it’s a lot of extra work for the club for not a lot of return.
Could easily do that for fans under 500 points for us.
The idea of the system is good and those who support the most regularly should get priority.
Its flaws arrive when those tickets are bought every time under that same name but then distributed to less worthy people.
rant over.... this superfan has his ticket
I agree it it is a bit of a closed shop but are we at the level where we sell out every game?THIS is the issue......and I say that as one of the "less worthy" who has had a few away tickets from the re-sellers this season.
Several clubs had the same issue with their points system and changed policy...QPR I know were one, so they now offer 15% (i think?) of away tickets through qualifying ballot to help avoid it becoming a total closed shop.
I've averaged 10 home and 10 away games in last three seasons. Sadly I didn't get anywhere near ticket for Wolves.Does my head in when a big game comes round and people claim the points system doesnt work.
Ive had a season ticket for 47 years.....
I travel from Wales every home game....
I bought a CCFC duvet cover.....
Of course priority should be given to those that attend more away games, and not just a season ticket priority then free for all.
There's been about 12/13 away games already this season make it to general sale, but all those that want Wolves tickets couldnt be arsed with Preston or Millwall could they

So more dedicated fans than you are getting the tickets and that’s a bad thing because?Fucking hate this points system, I've had a ST every season bar Birmingham, can't go to many away games as my lad plays on a Saturday, but the ones that were localish and doable have sold out before my points 830.
#closedshop #superfans
If you’re a consistent ST holder you would have 900+ points and easily be able to build more.The problem with the points system is the rich get richer. I go to plenty of away games but am always reliant on mates who have got the points to get me tickets so they always get my points. It is fine to a point, but never gives me the independence to get them myself should I piss them off and they refuse to help me out!
I'm on 830 and the only time I haven't been a season ticket holder is when we were at Northampton and Birmingham.If you’re a consistent ST holder you would have 900+ points and easily be able to build more.
It’s not the ultra elite club some paint it as.
So if you had a season ticket that season you’d be on 1060 and easily able to get tickets for pretty much every gameI'm on 830 and the only time I haven't been a season ticket holder is when we were at Northampton and Birmingham.
