But nobody would buy your tickets unless either a) you sold them cheaper than the face value, meaning you'd be making a loss every time the Albion played away or b) the match sold out, which only happens three or four times a season.

Just accept your place in the queue. You're a STH and you've been to some away matches this season. You don't deserve more than the people who go up and down the country every single weekend, but you have more than enough to get a ticket for Millwall (and 99% of away games for that matter) if you want one.

As I spend roughly £500 per home game, I would gladly lose a few quid if it guaranteed me a ticket for Liverpool away in round 6.

Hope loyatly points dont stop me from getting a ticket. Went to Charlton and off to Watford so be a shame to miss this one!

Ok so carrying points over becomes the problem.
You could attend no home games, have no season ticket, and yet still outrank a STH for this season - senseless.

I'm almost certain you lose the 1000 points once you don't renew your ST.

I also dont have a problem with the system, makes sense to me. Doubt there will be a trouble getting a ticket if you have been to a few away games this season.

No you couldn't because it's only the points over and above the 1000 for a STH that get carried over I believe. So if I'm a STH last season with 1050 points, and I renew my STH this season, I start the season with 1025, but if I don't renew I lose the 1000, as far as I understand

Maybe you're supposed to but, as I said, I know a family that hasn't?

Yes but the fatal flaw is, I could buy tickets to every away game, flog them on NSC, attend no matches and have all the points I need.
So that makes it worthless anyway.

In which case you should do that if it's so easy. Then you'll never not be able to buy a ticket for an away game that you don't want to go to again.

Cannot see us selling out Millwall. I cannnot remember the last time I went when the lower tier was used, let alone sold out.

Apart from last season

Well, joking apart, it is very tempting.
Especially as we could be in the Prem next season and demand could soar.

That is a lot of pies.

Only it wouldn't work, because we rarely sell out our away allocation.

I'm sure last season they opened the lower tier for us as we had sold out top tier allocation

Ha ha, I wish.

Train, hotel and beer, plus pies of course - for 2 and a half people.

How does that cause a problem? Carrying over points is rewarding people for their previous loyalty - Hence it being called a loyalty scheme.

Don't worry, I hadn't realised it either, last year I couldn't go either, normal service should resume this year. And I am sure that anyone with 1100+ loyalty points will get a ticket for this, no problem.

True, but Spurs, Arsenal, Chelsea etc. hopefully in the near future could see us sell out regularly.

Because if it's for having a ST for last season (not renewed) it shouldn't outrank a current STH.
