I have booked my own travel, had a season ticket for 25 years but only have 8k points (do do aways because of other commitments) & almost definitely will not get a ticket, especially with the new announcement.
That being said, this is an unbelievable gesture and there maybe people with a lot more points than me who couldn’t go due to costs implications so I most certainly wouldn’t begrudge another blue getting a ticket.
If you get a ticket, congratulations and enjoy the momentous occasion.
I won’t go if I don’t get a ticket but if you decide to use your independent travel, don’t hold it against other city fans, it’s been a tough 18 months or so, go and enjoy a few days in the sun and watch some football with a few beers.
