Been a problem for the last few seasons. You'd have thought the club could consider leaving a block or two free of ST holders in the North Stand redevelopment to give members etc a chance. Can't see it happening though.
Sorry but some form of criteria is needed for next year, it's becoming a joke. Releasing tickets for the derby, West Ham, Chelsea all at once with a weak criteria was a shambles. A lot of blues are also in work and dont have a chance to buy these online. It should have been staggered over the course of a week with a fair points system in place, allowing fans to purchase in the evening in a timely manner.
Like I said, it is shite paying and regularly attending the lesser games over the years but don't get a look in when it comes to the derby or last home game of the season. Loyal fans are not a priority.
To be honest this season is the first time it’s happened previous seasons I”ve not had a problem getting tickets for the games I wanted including the last game.Sorry but some form of criteria is needed for next year, it's becoming a joke.

Not if the ticket points were on a five year rolling basis, as opposed to the system we have now, but I suppose that’s a different argument for a different day.Mate, there’s probably only somewhere in the region of 7-8000 tickets for home league games to shift. No matter what system they have, there’s going to be a lot of disappointed people who consider themselves loyal fans for the biggest games.
If they did adopt a sliding points scale similar to away games, the only people probably qualifying would be ex season ticket holders, who’ve dropped out for whatever reason but fancy the derby or get one for a mate.
