Grumpy Git Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 Just now, Curtains said: I don’t like the system as it negates previous seasons . I don’t like Cup game exclusion. I realise it comes across as I’m alright Jack attitude Its my opinion and if you have done 20 plus games last season your happy ? I can’t help the way I feel about it . I won’t be quiet though just to suit others views So you’re unhappy that someone who went to at least 7 away league games more than yourself, has a better chance of going to more away games than you again this season?

Tamworthram Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 23 minutes ago, Curtains said: I don’t see how going to away games last season excluding Cup games is any way to determine it . Why not take the last 5 seasons away games in total . Don’t sell memberships with the knowledge that people might not get away tickets without being categorical that yo might miss out I agree regarding cup games and don’t understand why they should be excluded. The last 5 years could have been an option but then why 5 years and not 3, 7, 10?. Also, when away tickets have been limited hasn’t the priority system always been based on away membership and away games attended in the previous season (I might have got that wrong) so it’s nothing new. Wasn’t the priority system announced before away membership went on sale? Therefore, it was surely pretty clear to everyone that, whilst having away membership helped, given the size of the grounds we would be visiting there is always going to be a risk of missing out. I understand that you’re upset by this but perhaps you just need to have a think about some of the inconsistent statements you’re making. Your upset about the unfairness of the system but you couldn’t care less about away games. You want the club to recognise loyalty but you like the idea of a first come first served approach. It’s irrelevant because nothing is going to change but, if I could change it I would perhaps 1) include cup games in the tally and 2) make it a points system primarily based on the number of away games attended in the previous season but also allotting points for being a season ticket holder. Even this though wouldn’t be entirely fair though as there are no doubt very good reasons why some people can’t or don’t buy a season ticket (that’s why having a season ticket would only be one factor and wouldn’t trump away games attended).

Well the way I’m feeling at the moment can’t just be eradicated in my mind . It’s my problem. I am alright Jack applies in life of course it does and on this I’m not alright but as you say and I know it’s a difficult situation and I have to get over it . Its going to be difficult for loads of away members this season . Couldn’t care less about away games is a remark made in frustration and you have picked up on it. Its not all sweetness and light going to away games as it costs a lot of money ? . Anyhow I’ve made my points and I don’t have much support on here although I have a little.

Cheers You've got my support fella, There's not a fair system in place that can support our support, There will always be those who don't fit the criteria any criteria, And those that do are the winners, Life aint fair at times...but remember this, We'll be at all our homes games where there looked at times we wouldn't...that's enough for me to enjoy and others to enjoy, Don't get yourself wound up over stuff like this.

B4ev6is Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 We have done 19 away games last season we missed shiffield United away in the cup and covery city away in the FA.
