  1. One spare adult ticket for tonight if anybody needs one.
  2. Agreed, the system isn’t perfect but where do you draw the line? There’s always somebody that has held a season ticket longer or has done more away games. The system was much simpler 15 years ago when it was based on the number of away matches you attended during each season as a Season Ticket Holder. There’s also a valid point that we generally have a core of Season Ticket Holders that do the vast majority of away games and have done so for a number of years. Even if you take away the 50 points for a Season Ticket and based it purely on away matches then they would still be ahead in the system - you can’t please everybody. A suggestion would be made to reduce the longevity of valid priority points - that way you would potentially get a drop off of people doing away matches no matter how small; although you’d potentially still end up with the same issue. No system is perfect. The suggestion that it’s a closed shop and Season Ticket Holders lower down the scale are unable to get tickets is simply false as I’ve proven in this thread with Cardiff and Millwall making it way down the priority scale.
  3. Also plenty left for Millwall (a). The current priority system is only unfair if it suits your agenda in not being able to get tickets for the higher profile games, despite not putting the hard yards in for the vast majority of others.
  4. Agreed, although I’d love to see the numbers and breakdown by priority - how many have done 10 years and an average of 10 aways per season for example. We’re fortunate to have had a sustained period of success - do we simply now have 2,000 STH’s for example that have had their ST for a number of years and have done the vast majority of away games? We’ve taken numbers and sold out allocations for as long as I can remember; a reason as to why the atmosphere has now gone extremely stale (a debate for another thread!). Even if the priority system were to change I feel there would still be the same problem. Many would still find an excuse for the less attractive games and there would still be an issue for the high profile ones.
  5. Plenty, including myself, have done the hard yards over the years; trips to Newcastle, Southampton and Cardiff all falling midweek several times. I continue to do similar fixtures as somebody with a high priority; with tickets for both Ipswich and Cardiff in the bag. I accept that the system isn’t perfect and I’m lucky in a sense that I began following the Club away when our average away attendance was much lower and tickets were easier to come by. That said, I’ve done 95% of away matches for as long as I can remember and the only time threads like these come about is for the high profile matches; always excuses for the less attractive fixtures.
  6. Spare concession ticket for tomorrow Over-65’s or U21’s. Collect in London.
  7. Ultimately, there’s a higher demand from supporters with seats in other areas to be in SK1 due to the atmosphere created by Union FS; while there have been a few instances of supporters in the area without tickets hence the higher presence of stewards. It’s for this reason that both Union FS and many others have sought to encourage the Club to allocate a bigger Singing Section. While it’s Union FS that have perhaps been more active in pushing for it for many years, it’s clear there’s also huge demand from outside the group. The criticism of the group in this thread is completely unwarranted.
  8. 1 spare for tonight. Collect at ground. Ring me if you want it 07860818704
  9. I used the DSB app which was pretty straight forward. I’d have hoped they’d have said certain tickets were only for Danish residents in the breakdown of each ticket. Didn’t need a CPR number for purchase either.
  10. 5 of us now booked from Copenhagen to Aarhus with Orange tickets through DSB. The photo attached hopefully clarifies the breakdown of ticketing types as I understand it.
  11. We’re heading back to Copenhagen on the 12.15 train and expect to be there for around 3. On the 11pm flight back to Stansted on the Friday so time for a few more beers & a bit of sightseeing.
  12. 4 of us on the 8.40am out, returning at 11pm Friday. On the train from Copenhagen to Aarhus.
