You were happy for him to have your card, pay for it and keep your points going yet when it suits you you feel its yours again.

I'd tell you to go fuck yourself to be honest.

He paid to use the card for a season and should have the benefits of whatever that season throws his way.

I think you've put your Dad and his mate in a situation they shouldn't be in with your selfish attitude. You should go and apologise to the pair of them and let them go as originally planned.

Hmm difficult not to bite here.

What should I apologise for? I said it was ok and that I understood. I fail to see how that is anything less tha A-OK behaviour! If you would say things like (go fuck yourself) to members of your family who have been understanding at a great time of disappointment then it probably says a lot about your family life. Nice trolling though.

Anyway, before I saw that nonsense I was going to pick up on what Bluemooner said, along with a few others.

It is of course right to say he has kept the season ticket going but saying he has saved my loyalty points etc is not true. You don't lose them all if you go away; your name and account is still on the system. Nor is saying he's done me a favour. A favour would have been paying for it and then giving it up when I came back. Not that that was ever suggested, I'm just saying, he paid for something he wanted; it's not a favour.

Remember the fact that if I hadn't gone away he wouldn't have got any form of season ticket in the first place as he'd have had no-one to go with, and he certainly wouldn't be in a hotel bookable position with a certainty of getting a ticket if it wasn't for all lthe loyalty points I've built up.

But as some of you have said if he hadn't purchased the ST this season, I too would be in no position to use it to get a ticket for't semi. Unfortunately that is an insurmountable fact and coupled with the possibly underhand, possibly forward-thinking move of the hotel room I'm left with little choice.

I think it might be best to bow out with dignity and pray we get to the final and that a combination of familial kindness and his guilt will kick in.<br /><br />-- Tue Mar 22, 2011 6:32 pm --<br /><br />

I think that is the right and proper thing and I wouldn't necessarily say that your dad would rather go with his mate (difficult to say without knowing him) but he probably feels like I do that it is the right thing to do for his mate to have first call on the application for the Semi seeing as he has paid for the privelege for this season.

Also that. I'll have to console myself that my dad is in a shitter of a position.

you have been away not going to the games and now because were going to Wembley you want the ticket back?

if he hadn't have taken it then you would have had to get your points transferred to an accesscard and wouldnt be in a position to get a ticket.

If he bought a brand new seasoncar he may have a chance with one seasons worth of points.


it is a hard one and you probably feel as it has your name on your entitled to go. but without him you wouldnt even have a chance?

make a deal he gets semi final and you get final.?

No no no no not at all. Let's say it had come to a title decider. I wouldn't have dreamed of asking for the ticket back. Not for a league game. This is a discussion about points really.

As for the final trade-off, I might well do that.
