I’ve 2 season tickets. 1 with 179 points in and 1 with 176. I’m pretty fucked having 2 tickets in different phases.

Edit: just read the email properly and I can wait till the next window to buy them both at the same time.

Did the club mention anything about being able to book earlier phases with later ones like they are with the season tickets?

(I didn't see in my quick glance on the official site but hopefully it will be the same principle for people in this situation!)

Yeah I didn’t read it properly. I can wait till the next phase. Annoying though, if only my wife had bothered to come to a couple of more games rather than looking after our kids so I could go to games! :ROFLMAO:

Are you certain? If so get in touch with them as it sounds like they've messed up your total (which seems very common!)

You should have:
Silver Membership: 25
1 point per home league game attended (or listed on the exhange) this season: 15
Champions League group stage package: 6
Juventus: 1
Total: 47

Only thing I can think of is if you bought the CL group stage games separately and the LPs were different, but I think they were just 2 points each anyway.

Ive got 43 points. I didnt sit in my usual seat for the CL games but with my mates who would get me a paper ticket..

The seat which I paid £60 for in area 121 for last year's semi-final against Chelsea is £80 this year.


Work that one out.

And I assume it wasn't assigned to your account when they bought it? :( Sorry, that sucks.

As if I'm worse off as a season ticket holder than as a member Had enough points for both the Chelsea semi final and the last game at WHL but no, being 3,000 on the waiting list and 12 years as a member means nothing, that just evaporates and levels the playing field so new season ticket holders who have been on the waiting list for 2 years can get a ticket to this one. How is that a fair system in any way?! It should've been done in the same way the new whl season ticket process is. Absolute pisstake

But there is no way the club could do it so that everyone can sit with their mates is there?
With the free for all, as bad as it was sitting there waiting for the donut of death to finish, I always managed to get 13 of us all sat together in pretty decent seats. So in terms of sitting together that did kind of work.

Now the same group are spread over three phases. For sure we can wait and sit together, just not necessarily in decent seats as 16,000 people will get first dibs (minus people in the same situation).

Appreciate there are plenty of people in worse situations who won’t get seats at all.

And when do they stop basing loyalty point cut offs from WHL? The season ticket phasing is a one-off. This is completely different, they have to set a precedent for future finals/ semis

This is exactly the same process that's always happened for cup games. I was on the waiting list and got a ST this year & have got 60 points. Missed 2 league games and only been to Rochdale away, Newport home for the cup so you must have missed a significant amount of games to have not clocked up enough loyalty points

I agree it is, not sure how the lps work as i missed west ham and only have 70 points with gold membership

I was 10,000 on waiting list but had so many loyalty points that i was in top 1,000 members

What they should have done is convert your loyalty points from membership to season ticket so that for every 5 you had as a member gives 1 as a season ticket holder

Which is fine other than the fact there are an additional 20000 odd season ticket holders, some with 1 years service on the waiting list, others like me with 10+, you can't level the playing field for that many people as it is not representative of loyalty.

I'll agree I have missed a few, mainly the cup games or midweek pl games. Reason being I took a Job offer in Barcelona in July, so while in theory it's fine, in reality my loyalty is still superior to those with 1 year on the waiting list who can now get tickets to a semi final when any other year they'd have had no chance.

Serves you right for putting a job before your football club. :rolleyes:

If you've not been to any cup games, you can't really moan about not being allowed to cherry-pick the FA cup semi.

I agree - and I've given up trying to stress this point.

It's so hypocritical talking about "loyalty", yet only turning up to the big games when it's convenient to them.

Should non-members who have gone to every cup game on general sale tickets be given priority over a season ticket holder who's been to every league game but no cup games?

Going to matches in earlier rounds has never given any priority to members' chances of getting semi-final/final tickets before, so why should it now? The loyalty point cutoff for our last two semi finals were 134 and 148 where going to one cup match accounted for 3% of the required minimum. This season going to one cup match makes up over 10%.

I wonder how many people bought tickets for the Rochdale replay but couldn't attend due to the weather. The club still took their money but they wouldn't have received the loyalty points because they didn't scan their card at the stadium.
