Explain how rewarding the fans for attending more games last year and getting priority to attend this year is unfair. 5 minutes ago, Curtains said: You are more loyal fan than me . Right When did I say that I am more loyal? You attended more away games than me! I'm not moaning that it's unfair because I attended less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phone number for ticket office doesn’t exist from their website. Give me strength! Did you buy the tickets for the five games directly from DCFC?, otherwise they won't be recognised on the system. I went to four away games last season, but only two games will be on the system as I bought one ticket at Peterborough on the day and did hospitality at Preston.

How would you have made it fairer? Shortening the window for each category would be better IMO (but some would still have understandable reason to complain) but it wouldn’t change the priority system.

Tamworthram Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 3 minutes ago, Curtains said: I don’t want fair I want equivalence. Right. So although you’re complaining that this system is inherently unfair, you don’t actually want a fair system?? Sounds like you just want a system that gives you personally a better chance of getting a ticket regardless of fair or unfair it is. We’d all probably like a system that benefits us personally but, most of us seem to be accepting that the current system is probably about as fair and reasonable as it can be. Yes, they could include cup games but I guess they have excluded these because they want to reward those that have supported the club in the bread and butter league games and/or because cup games are often cheaper. I would be in favour of shorter windows for each category but even that wouldn’t suit everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree but, sadly, it would never work. How could you prevent such folk from actually buying a ticket even if they were refused entry to the ground or on public transport?
