Well, you'd hope so it's just the massive drop from 1k to this years ST. It would be gutting to be on 999 points having had a season ticket in every other year but not got one this to have to wait for general sale.

Yeah looks it. So that's worst than last season, last season the club said they at least had to be in phase 1.
All this change came around because of people moaning about the SCs and they now have it better. Fantastic

I think its right the way the club have rolled this one out and there will always be the odd teething issue and people not happy as it doesn't suit their personal circumstances. Although the support for the supporters clubs needs to be reigned in.
I don't think they were probably expecting it not to go to the third Phase for this one and hopefully they set some more bandings for points going forward for other games.
Some People seem to be missing the main point that Sunderland have only given 1500 tickets which is by far the bigger issue and cause of the problems.

Not from what I saw, they still have to use points and the club has their supporter numbers per ticket so they can see.
The tweet reply on above messages from city suggests this is not the case.
I'm joining a supporters club now.

Yep, agreed. Same with Hull, we won't sell out so just give people priority for one day and then general sale.

Knowing city i'll be eleventy billion points first and you have to log on via the wifi at the starbucks opposite cathedral lanes

Are there any in the city though? Or are they all for farmer folk?

Very late for people to book train tickets etc and it's still one per ticket even at general sale.
The days of us taking 8k to MK Dons where people were clearly buying 2/3 batches of 6 tickets is gone.

And when they do, hopefully they'll notice the reduction in away followings.

700 sold according to club

Perhaps suggests there aren’t many people with between 1,000 and 1,200 points - the majority have 1,200 and they are the people who go to pretty much every game

Again proving this windows are too tight and 24hrs is pointless.
Boddy told fans they would have short windows between each point of sale.
We wouldn't have sold 3k with this system in place.

So the buy 3 for your mates and get pissed on the train over crowd that people hate on here seem to be a big and important part of our following

Seems Boddy talks a lot of shite
So looks like the problem is only fixed for those 700. Come Friday 10am system breaks with everyone trying to get the last 700 tickets.

Those 700 already got tickets with the old system , or they wouldn't be part of the 700 now

Loads mate , most didn't get the points from the covid cancelled brum season

Tbf you'd only need 4 season tickets (1030) and 70 extra points over those seasons to buy today, which could have easily just been home cup games or the odd away.

Is it from 5 years ? I'm guessing alot of fans had ST in Coventry ( 3 years ) plus away tickets
The blues seasons will be why alot are under 1000

Which any serious football club sells out for their opening fixure with an allocation of 1500
I don't know why I'm replying tbh , it will sell out
David O'Day

Pretty much

Nah 4.
19/20 ST = 270
20/21 Member with ST = 300
21/22 ST = 230
22/23 ST = 230
Like someone said above (i think @David O'Day ??) It probably should have been weighted more towards away tickets.

Why not just get a season ticket with the free match pass to watch them?
I know, easy in hindsight.

Yea that makes sense as to why alot of away lads are under 1000
Miss the ST Andrews seasons you're in a bad place points wise

Yeah, they do weight games this season well with regards to away tickets but the historic games seem massively weighted towards home games.
First stans season is a joke

Let’s see if they keep it next season what they do when more people have a lot of points due to ST purchases - hopefully they don’t move the goalposts and make the top priority higher as there are more people with 1,000 points as that would create a closed shop and not make it easy to build up points into the top categories

I have no idea of the logic to this point. How are we going to sell any less under this system than the old? It's 3 days difference between general (ST holder) sale and the first batch. People are going to stop going to away games because they have to wait 3 days?!
