Really good idea that and i've mentioned it myself on this forum.
Points added for home attendees and double points taken off for absentees. Of course, there will be supporters arguing they cannot go due to an emergency situation arising. Fine, it can happen to anyone and has happened to me, but let's say after 2 games unattended, 3 game the points deduction starts.
When i cannot go i try and shift my ticket to a friend, and most times i have. It just irks me to see empty seats dotted about the stadium because a lot nowadays simply cannot be arsed going. I've been accused of being an empty seats counter on here. I just cannot fathom out why so many choose not to attend games for whatever reason. Twenty years ago most blues would have walked barefoot on broken glass from Piccadilly to hang from the rafters to get a glimpse of the football we play nowadays. I appreciate the quality of football we play and i don't want to miss a minute of it when I'm at games.
I quoted your post yesterday saying I wouldnt want City punishing fans for not attending, mainly because nobody knows of the circumstances around them not turning up.
Anyway looking at it another way, how many seasoncard holders actually worry about their points total? It would just be pointless City going down this route.
