12,000 points first day of sale for Cardiff Away

[cardiffcityfc]

Apologies if it has been mentioned previously, must admit I was a bit taken aback when I realised I couldn't buy my ticket on first day of sale. I opted out of paying for Platinum double points, as prefer to put that money towards an away day /match ticket. Does this mean we now have 100's of Blues who have jumped to the top of the loyalty points table because of double points? Would like to know the numbers involved. Hope I'm wrong but this has all the hallmarks of Derby Match tickets at Old Trafford going to ballot. Time will tell....

They are probably just expecting trouble because of Cardiff fans Rep and don't want the opportunity of newbies just wanting a scrap getting tickets

Cardiff are a family Club now. They've banned loads and I'd expect a warm welcome in Cardiff.

12,000 is a little higher than what I'd have expected but perhaps they're staggering it to ensure they can cope with demand.

Yes we are a family club now most the idiots have been banned, get the odd bit of trouble away but nothing to really shout about.

Also weve been family club of the year 2 yrs running,

It should be a cracking game with a bouncing atmos. The stadium is always rocking who ever we play but being our first ever home game in the big time. It should be special

1 that i look very much 4ward to.

My Brother-in-Law and Nephew are season ticket holders at Cardiff so I know a little bit about the Club. I went to Ninian Park myself but haven't yet had the opportunity to visit the new ground. I'm optimistic at squeezing in this season.

It's nice to see football doing so well in Wales considering when Cardiff and Swansea were both languishing in the lower echelons of the Football League. I imagine you've no real empathy for how the Jacks are getting on but it's promoting Welsh football very well, IMHO.

Welcome to Bluemoon.

If they ever introduce a ballot then it will end platinum. So they will never introduce one as it would reduce the club's income for charging people for platinum.

Always said it should be a rolling ten year period for loyalty points.

CCS isn't bouncing. Most games its dead as a corpses cock.

don't know why there is always moaning about loyalty points. they have been built up over the last 11 years (ish) we've only been any good for 3 maybe 4 years at best. people with low points had 6 years prior to us getting rich to attend games and build points up. odd that they didn't.

the people I know with points now in the bag couldn't give a flying fuck about them, either now or back then. we had no idea whether we'd ever reach a cup final again, let alone vie for the title or the champions league. we went to watch city, quite often on the end of another defeat. then the money came. as did the moaners.

Tickets always available if you do the asking or digging.

De Niro has it spot on.

So you wouldn't mind a rolling ten year period then?

Also, people with lots of money tend not to worry about money either, it's the way of the world.

All that happened is that 11 years ago those attending home and away were forever crystallised at the top.

and rightly so. the games so hence the points were available to all. but of course we were bobbins, now that we are a good side out comes the "loyalty points aren't fair" comments. they were there to be had.
