So reduce that by 100 then, I'd rather increase the segregation than give them more than us.
confirmed 2000 tickets for Coventry away

Sorry must have misread your post
Thats because we had enough demand for those tickets from our own supporters. It would be silly to sell tickets to away fans at the cost of our own supporters.

It was likely agreed before a ball was kicked that if we played them we’d give each other 2k

I’m sure they’ll sell-out too

They will all be in lounge/box smashing the free bar. A lot of corporate ain’t there for the footy, they are there for the free food and pi$$ up
I understand the reasoning behind loyalty points but genuinely don’t know how anyone not currently in the top tier can build up their points to get there. I’m a ST holder so don’t buy home tickets and can never get away ones so I’m stuck on 154 points. It’s a bit annoying!

It’s a fair point, I am on 210 pts but really can’t understand the process, why aren’t the points wiped rather than rolled over, current scenario means people will never be able to climb the ladder.

The issue is people buying tickets for high demand games they won’t be attending just for the points and selling those tickets on to other people. I’d be surprised if there wasn’t a minibus full of people with maxed out points buying tickets for every away game to keep their points topped up, knowing they can resell any unused tickets along with transport on the bus to occasional match goers.

Does anyone recall how many we gave Brentford and Villa in previous play-off games?

Something similar i think, I'm sure i remember Brentford struggling to sell their allocation as well.

free?
don’t understand why you can’t build up your points as a season ticket holder with that many points there was probably only 4 matches this season that you couldn’t have bought away tickets for Sunderland WBA Luton Rotherham
As for the play offs why not let the fans who went to Coventry the first option

That looks like the players and their family's enclosure.
Honestly that’s just not true. Haven’t been able to get away tickets since very early in the season. You think I could’ve got Huddersfield, Sheff Utd? No chance!
It holds 30k mate but they have averaged around the 20k mark this season.

It’s all about the games first half of the season, those ones tend to go to low priority points or even general sale. Come the second half of the season if there’s any sniff of success it’s too late to build your points up.
The other issue is people buying student and kids tickets to games they have zero intention of going to. Go on Twitter 1 or 2 days before a standard away game and there’ll be loads on offer from the same people as the previous away game.
