Yes the policy with regards to sales may not be the best, but slagging it off whilst behaving in a manner which makes it difficult for a fellow fan seems a tad hypocritical to me. Yet, you're a Tory.
January 17, 20242 yr I thought it would be fairly self explanatory, but the day trippers are the ones who lap it up for a Saturday game a fairly short and simple journey away while conspicuous by their absence at the other games where the travelling is more difficult and the tickets don’t sell out. You can spot the nominated ticket buyers for each group because none of us have any bastard hair.

If I buy extra from my group & Casinos group get none, Casinos group now has some ... & vice versa. When people are buying just to sell on at a profit. When supporter groups get an allocation pre-sale. When away ST holders pick, choose or sell. When someone buys Luton tickets just to try to swap for Fleetwood tickets. When YouTubers never have to queue etc etc Then we can moan & winge about it ... or join them in playing the game. If the club won't set a fairer system, then we'll join in playing the game to our best advantage. Don't hate the players, hate the game.

January 18, 20242 yr Was going to take my grandson to his first away day , given that I don’t travel to many these days . When I got word that only 1460 ish tickets were available ( given my expectation was many more ) I decided not to bother , believe it or not based on the fact that I might be depriving the ‘hard core ‘ of tickets . Naive maybe , but just an appreciation of the hard miles our away support puts in . Maybe Derby then ?
January 18, 20242 yr As an afterthought ticket chicanery has been a feature of football life for ever. I remember the ’ Executive Suite’ at Burnden , what a fucking group of hangers on they were , I worked with a guy who never ever paid for a ticket all the time I knew him . As for away matches it was just as corrupt then as it is now , I guess it’s just life . Got invited many times as a freebie to the ‘ Excutive Suite ‘ but always refused . I Know , but I really did prefer the Burnden Paddock no bullshit.
January 18, 20242 yr Got train tickets sorted, had to leave the ticket purchasing with the wife as I’ve meeting at 10am… not confident I’m gonna be using the rail tickets.

January 18, 20242 yr Quite right too given how many we gave them and the small allocation they had initially given us. Plus they have an empty terrace - so why not make a few quid !

January 18, 20242 yr The only people who do not think the system is fucked are those who do not buy tickets. We got ours I think in the extras that were released. It will be like the Wild West up there next week.
January 18, 20242 yr Got nowt but the big, blue buffering bastard. Our kid managed to get 2, log out then logged back in for a 3rd while I was no nearer. I knew I should have visited here when they had Pop Robson playing for em.
January 18, 20242 yr nothing was loading for a good 5 minutes, went incognito mode on google and it worked very well, got 2 in the terrace, hope it doesn't rain....
January 18, 20242 yr Their supporters group were on to the club to advise they reciprocate a bigger allocation like we did for them and it puts potentially another £50k or so in their coffers. Seems they listened
