Wrexham tickets (15 Viewers)

[Skyblueabo1111]

I’m genuinely concerned that people are struggling with the concept of putting a few hundred point threshold on it to prioritise people who’ve actually been to a game at all recently.

I'm glad someone has pointed this out as this seems to have increasingly happened over the season. I suspect that if the tickets for this game had been sold on a staggered points basis, then there would have been plenty of cases of people with enough points buying for mates who don't, which doesn't end up being any fairer. In my opinion it would also have been wrong to change the means of selling home tickets for a single game, when they haven't done so for any other games earlier in the season.

Could have got a ticket with 10 points. Just needed previous purchase record.

Anyone on lower than 1400 wont have a fucking prayer of attending an away game next season which is a shame

I think they would for Sunderland and the two promoted teams (unless Millwall or Wrexham come up).

I was more annoyed with the hospitality phone number not being recognisable until miraculously coming back after selling out

Agreed. I wonder if we might do something like 2500 based on tiered points then a small allocation done another way . I’ve never had an issue with missing out on away tickets due to a them going to those who make the effort to go to every away game though. Still pick up the odd one but is what it is

Wrexham tickets were on sale last June and all throughout the summer.

Amazing how many people come out of the woodwork

I'm hoping you'll be surprised. If you can make weekday away games (all of which are on TV), you will be able to see games using your own membership.

That in itself will put you in a better position for the plum matches.

They don’t have to start with us lifting the championship trophy though do they

No one is suggesting points for other home games

No they do nt but they could ve been to 20 games this season and still have no chance .
Simple maths . pusb

Indeed a fair approach would have been (due to there only being ~5k tickets for general sale) to introduce a points threshold and not allow season ticket holders to purchase more.

I suspect they don't have that information easily available and have no desire to create more work for themselves.

Think the season ticket points get added manually hence every season we get the 'have your season ticket points been added yet' and it seemingly taking weeks for everyone to get them.

You could pull the data to work out who had points and who to take off as season ticket holders but then how do you make a sale only available to them?

Crazy to think that the last time we were in the PL even for games like Villa you could just rock up to the ticket office whenever you liked and get one no bother.

Remember paying on the gate at places like Arsenal, Spurs and Chelsea.

That's weekend fixtures.
There's usually about half a dozen midweek fixtures scheduled.
Assuming half those are away, then if they are relatively unattractive (Millwall and Hull hopefully), then those games will go below 1400.

I suspect that none will go to general sale, but if you've had a ST for the last 4 years, you will get the chance of a premier league awayday.

I'd imagine the system was dropped really as they'll be sorting protocols for next season?
