Another potential money spinner for the club too. Money for old rope.It's not a good idea when we are averaging 1900
Cap or points based system
People would moan if they missed on a membership too btw

Luckily I've got mine but I know a few who also go to every game home and away that have missed out here. I think the club really ought to have put some sort of priority/points system in place for Luton, This match and maybe the Fulham game depending on allocation as it seems unfair on some of the regulars.
I agree needs to be something in place.It's the worst idea possible , like I said, I've missed maybe 5 away games in the league in about 7 years .. somebody like me misses out because I weren't in the queue early enough ?? Nah
Get a points based system
I suspect the club looks at it from a narrow financial perspective in that the don’t make money away but do at home so use away tickets to incentivise season tickets sales rather than looking from a fan service perspective.
I'd happily pay £20 at the start of a season to gain priority to away tickets.
Even if it was an hour earlier than season tickets.
They could cap the memberships at a 1000.
Cheers. Yeah that’s what I thought and had always worked before but when I first tried to get Bournemouth tickets it let me through to book 1 but kept failing when I tried to get 2 together and then it stopped letting me even select one. Oh well, maybe next time (should’ve got myself one and left the lad at homeSorry for the late response, you can buy as many tickets as there are people in your network, you just assign them to the other people. They do have to have the right privileges though, i.e. correct level of ST or membership.
So if you and your boy are both ST holders, you can buy one for you and assign the other to him.

I’d love to see any evidence that a significant number of people buy STs for priority away access.
But if they offered a priority away membership they would make some money from away games. Could make it that you have to have a season ticket to buy an away membership? Bit like Phase One.
No... well OK let's do it , let's cap it at 2500 like forestBut if they offered a priority away membership they would make some money from away games. Could make it that you have to have a season ticket to buy an away membership? Bit like Phase One.
It really is unfair, i know folks who have followed city away since dark times, cant get a ticket.
And i managed to get 2..fully agree.
Do Fulham still have that Neutral stand they used to have in the PL?
Thanks for giving me Fulham away anxiety already.Luckily I've got mine but I know a few who also go to every game home and away that have missed out here.

Not while their new stand is being completed.Do Fulham still have that Neutral stand they used to have in the PL?
HahahahhahahaThanks for giving me Fulham away anxiety already.
It's never been a problem before, just cos we're big time now. There will be people in that Bournemouth end who never had to watch Peter Vincenti run the line like a baby giraffe at FGR away in the pissing rain and I'm annoyed.
Shame as that would of been a sea of Sky Blue as wellNot while their new stand is being completed.
They used to be Southampton fans
Or Lapland (sorry Wycombe) away when we were dying of cold. Morecambe in their non-league ground. Newport was a soaker as well. 300, a loss and being next to the guy that got punched at Exeter. Burge needing a Walsall win for his acca so throwing the game with 2 minutes left. Boxing day at Bristol Rovers with Russell fucking Slade. Getting started on by fans of Shrewsbury of all teams. Pigs on the pitch at Charlton. Cambridge in the cup.Thanks for giving me Fulham away anxiety already.

No... well OK let's do it , let's cap it at 2500 like forestall good then
We can't cap it at 1000 just because 2 matches are just over 1000
Really good idea.
Cap the memberships according to the smallest away allocation that given season.
Ie this season Luton. 1000.
I agree, i dont think the full amount went online today.All that would happen is people would be queueing for the 1,000 membership tickets. People would then be moaning about who gets first dibs on acquiring them. I suspect Bournemouth tickets have been hoovered up by players/staff//supporters clubs, etc eating into a good few hundred of the Bournemouth allocation.

We sold Phase One S/T's and had special memberships with shirts etc. before, and this would not be that much different. Once they're gone they're gone.
If you attend that many away matches then you'd make sure you or a loved one were logged in etc. to get one.
Excellent trollingGot mine! First game since Exeter at Wembley for me. Buzzing
Wearing chinos ... plus 10I like the points idea, but let’s expand it. Lose points for leaving early/before HT. Extra points per post on SBT obviously. -50 for arriving with a Victoria sponge…
