I'm not sure City have even ever played at 110+ grounds to be honest mate! (certainly not in your lifetime). and have you really counted every game you have ever been to??
You sound a bit like him from Pheonix Nights who sold the paint to Chuck Norris mate!
No offence tho, Worsley is a lovley place
It certainly is, does anyone really think anything is going to change? A bit of a token gesture of a City Matters group that will have no fuckin say whatsoever on how these away tickets get distributed. Corporate, City employee's, supporter clubs looked after. Loyalty point holders shit on. And it aint fuckin changing.I have no problem missing out to blues who have been to more games, had a season ticket longer and built their points up over years of dedication. I object to missing out to half and half scarfers and tourists. It’s a piss take .

Thanks in advance.
I’ve done the same. The only game I’ve not managed tickets for in the last five years is Bournemouth and Monaco.I will be honest, I have benefitted in the past from spares from supporters clubs, I know people who pay corporate box owners over the odds for away tickets, in fact I was told I could get a Brighton one yesterday through this source, I have turned it down. I will never again buy a ticket I am not able to get through my points. Maybe it’s time we all took a bit of a stand, miss out on some games and stop the demand and maybe more will go to points.
Problem is if father and daughter / son want to go together and one gets a ticket but the other doesn’tHonestly time for a random lottery for aways....sorry.
You may have started going 30 years ago but love city no less/ or more than say a 18 year old fan!
If it was totally random and all you had to do was registered interest to be in draw how could anyone complain it's not fair......

Totally respect your opinion but vice versa I totally. Totally disagree with you.I am sorry mate , but I disagree. We have all been 18 at some point, we have all had to start from scratch. The problem isn’t really with the system, it’s with the abuse of the system.

How can anyone claim to have a problem with a system that would give EVERY City fan regardless of age , financial state, ethnicity, gender or any other factor a EQUAL chance of a ticket?
Ho, that's right it doesn't suit YOU !
When I started from scratch I wasn’t 23000 points behind the people at the front. I was at scratch with everyone else.I am sorry mate , but I disagree. We have all been 18 at some point, we have all had to start from scratch. The problem isn’t really with the system, it’s with the abuse of the system.
When I started from scratch I wasn’t 23000 points behind the people at the front. I was at scratch with everyone else.
Anyone starting from scratch now will take them more years to get to 10000 points than it did for me to get to 10000 points because they won’t be able to go to as many games as I could at the same stage. By that time they will be even further behind the people at the front than they were when they were at scratch.
It’d take someone about 250 years to catch up to be able to go to every game if they started from scratch now even if they were in a position where they could go to every game because of age/finances/family responsibilities/hunger and they are no less deserving of being able to do what I’ve done over the last 19 years of the Loyalty Points system, just because I happen to have started from scratch at a better time than someone doing so now.
I think our away support has become a boring stale old-boys club who often bring no atmosphere to away games. We had a better away atmosphere before they Loyalty Points system came in. We always have better atmospheres away from home when it goes down to low points or open sale or when we used to get full away ends when bigger away ends were available like Blackburn or Bolton. Because it’s not the same old same old who are deep down fed up of bouncing around and making a racket.
Just because I have a healthy number of Loyalty Points doesn’t mean I think the system is what should remain just because it suits me and I’ve “put the years in”. Putting the years in means precisely nothing. My support for City doesn’t mean any more than an 18 year old who’s just starting out buying his own tickets away from his Dad now, he’s just like I was when I was 18 and should have the same opportunity to watch City as I did from that age, not be limited because people like me have put the years in.
Yes I do EVERY cityI may agree with you if we were starting a system from scratch, but we are not. People have built their points up for years, done without to afford it, missed family occasions and arranged their lives around it. Then after years of getting to a level where you can expect a ticket for most games you have the rug tugged away. You think that would be fair ?
I think ALL city fans should have exactly the same chance of a ticket.......there is no such thing as a special or super fan!I may agree with you if we were starting a system from scratch, but we are not.

The voice of reason.......SIR . Articulate.common sense and unselfish. Not usual for this forum but you have the values that ALL city fans should aspire too. I bow and shuffle away......When I started from scratch I wasn’t 23000 points behind the people at the front. I was at scratch with everyone else.

the loyalty system is as much aboit the stars lining up in your life at the start of it .as loyalty.When I started from scratch I wasn’t 23000 points behind the people at the front. I was at scratch with everyone else.
