Points Whores

If it was just 10 points per game like it once was i don't think this would be an issue. I don't think the club helped with this last season by introducing the gold and platinum schemes with a big selling point of paying £50 extra for platinum being that you double you're loyalty points.

If only spares are allowed to be sold on here, then what happens to the "you can use my card as I have no intention of going to the game, but would quite like 40 free points" brigade?
As I said above, we have stopped this, and a number of posts were removed from the Madrid thread. The ticket/travel forum is for genuine requests and SPARES only, not for offering your ticket so you can get the points.

I've no idea but it's still besides the point. They are more likely to have been at those games than Billy Bluecard that goes to 3 or 4 games a season when his mate lets him have the ticket.

As I say, just playing devils advocate as given mine away and bought tickets in the past myself.

Bang on there mate.

Or some random stranger on BM.

I dont understand why so many people are so keen to offer it without being asked. I have seen ticket threads where people are offering the use of their card before anyone has even asked. To me that can only be for the points. Why would anyone care whether some random person gets a ticket or not.
Why not just let the system sort itself out.

If you have to do it then why not just PM the person who is asking at the time they ask. Blatantly advertising your card before being directly asked to me is out of order.

Where does everyone stand on people pimping out their season cards every away game just to collect the points? ***** trick in my option. Thoughts?

* tin hat on*

If a mate asks me for a ticket I'll get him one. likewise, on Bluemoon people on here have helped my friends out and I like to return the favour.

We got 14 tickets for Stoke away on the first two days of sales, turns out all 14 of us are going as it's mine and a another lads birthday that day. Sometimes we'll order 14 and only 9 of us will be going, so we usually get rid of the other tickets to friends and if there's any left over I'll get rid of them on here.

Yesterday I offered to help a fellow Bluemoon poster out with a ticket for Madrid, it was more hassle for me to meet him in Madrid while I'm on the piss then 40 fucking points are worth !

I've got about 6 pm's off posters on here asking if I can get them a Ajax ticket, If the cards are available ( I think only two cards are before I get any more pm's !! ) I'll sort them out, why ? Because one day you'll never know I might need a favour off them.

For me it's got fuck all to do with points.

I know people who would do a lot more for 40 loyalty points. If a friend asks me then fair enough, wont go out of my way to offer it. Why would you??

For the same reasons I donated money for a total stranger to come over from Australia to attend a City match. I'm a good lad me, as Zack dingle would say.

I've got a Fulham spare if anyone wants it? :-)













Ban level increase imminent...

Pmsl ! Funny enough my mate just text me saying he can't make Stoke away now, fuck selling ticket on here !
 
The solution is pretty obvious; the club should implement a system whereby you have to take a certain number of away ticket stubs in person to the ticket office at 9am on the day of sale. They should also ensure that only two ticket windows are open at that time, both staffed by old timers equipped only with a pencil.

This, you will agree, is flawless in every way. It is ultra convenient, perfectly fair and will never lead to chaos and 8 hour queues for a big match like a play off final or an FA Cup derby at old Trafford (and Alan Wilkie will not fucking thieve the tie from us as a bonus direct consequence).

Winner.

The majority of away tickets go to general sale now - bar your 3pm's on a Saturday so don't really see what the issue is.
They don't mate or there wouldn't be the issue.
