Standard amount tbh and as its a league game they are entitled to offer what they see fit

I think it's 10% of capacity to a maximum of 3,000. A bit of police advice thrown in lowers it a little more.
We do the same only giving 2,900 ish in a capacity of 47 and a bit.
When the wankers have all deserted they will be offering us ten thousand.
I missed out. This double loyalty points thing has really pissed me off. I used to be in the top 2,000 and could get a ticket for anything.
Bastards.

I totally agree, this double loyalty bollox is the worst thing the club have ever done with regards to tickets. Basically people can now buy themself a 'better fan' status ... it sucks big fat ones

As a person who will not give them 1p towards their debt I would not normally go. However I have been invited by a certain Building Society on a full corporate thingy. Neh neh ne neh neh (pulls out tongue).

To be fair, Arjen was banging the drum about how disgraceful this double ticket crap was quite some time ago. Gotta say he was spot on.

Why the fuck are so many away games 20 loyalty points, including Munich, yet the derby is 40 points? Surely that's the one game we should lower the reward without needing to entice people with points.

All of the away games are 20 loyalty points for gold cards and 40 points for platinum cards.

I hope all those who could afford to buy extra 'loyalty' points have a great day at the swamp.

The double points thing on the whole is stupid. I doubt it has had THAT much of an effect yet though.

Seasoncard - an extra 190 points.
2 home cup games - an extra 20 points.
1 away cup game - an extra 20 points.
4 away league games - an extra 80 points.
All cup schemes an extra 300 points.

So 610 points IF they went to all the away games and cup games and signed up to all 3 cup schemes.

So the swamp sells out around 6500 points, anyone that got a ticket already had 5800+ points and has been to every game this season OR they got gold but already had the points. Either way no one has just gone and bought there firat ever seasoncard and shot straight to the top of the list for an extra £50.

Not at all. I have just shy of 6,500. If I'd bought the double loyalty I'd have an extra 550 points. I'd be in for the game at the Swamp.

But you had the opportunity to go platinum like everybody else, the person who has usurped your place at the swamp wasn't too far behind in the first place. We all watched the video and read the bullet points before choosing our renewal option and it's not like the people ahead of you now are 1st year SC holders with bigger bank accounts. They are people who weren't that far behind who made a bigger commitment this year. The club doesn't care about Mr I W Asatgillingham anymore and the crying will fall on deaf ears.

I don't agree with it or the cup schemes either BTW it's just how it is.
