Could it be that a fair few folk bought STs just so they could go to the big games and guarantee a seat, and carry that on into the future?
Or is it some monumental cock-up in the ticketing department?
Anyone sit next to one of these mysterious seats and know the answer?

As he is loaded, he doesnt give a shit how much it costs him and wont loan it out to anybody but immediate family. There are only 2 members of the family who dont have seasoncards and thats because they cant get to many games so wouldnt be worthwhile buying them.
It really fucks me off that virtually every home game there is 3 empty seats next to me. I have had it out with him that loads blues would love a ticket but cant get one, he will just reply its his money and tickets and can do what he wants.
My biggest beef though, is if we get to wembley or any season defining game he will get a ticket ahead of any citycard holder who goes to miles more games than him. I love my brother, but he is a klunt of the highest order sometimes.

I might be wrong, but I was under the impression the loyalty points only go on if you turn up for the games. This is why you don't get a massive jump in points at the start of the season
