Category A away matches (spurs, arsenal, Man Utd etc) should have loyalty point debits not credits surely!!
Not sure you can punish someone because they didn't go to a football match
Shirley the only answer is:-
FACE TATTOOS
I'm the unlucky (i.e. only reliable) one in our group who buys anything up to a dozen tickets for (eligible) members per game. They don't put names on individual tickets, obviously, so I guess I'm going to have to be careful to make sure that the assigned ticket gets given to the right person in future. At the moment I just hand them out at random. I bought multiple tickets for last night, most went, a couple didn't. No idea which tickets were used though, so every chance someone who went will get deducted points for using a ticket that wasn't purchased in their name....
Let's focus on supporting the team on Saturday or moaning depending on what kind of fan you are!
I had more than enough loyalty points to get a ticket to go to Bournemouth last night, but chose not to buy a ticket as it was obvious the match would be played betwen the Bournmouth and Brighton reserve teams.
Why did the club only offer 5 loyalty points for the Bournemoth vs Brighton first team Premier League match last Friday, yet offered cheap tickets with 10 loyaly points for a reserve team match last night? This encouraged people to buy tickets just to get the loyalty points.
Apart from die hard Albion fans who go to every Albion match come rain or shine even on a Tuesday night when having to travel through Worthing and Arundel in the rush hour (and these fans probably don't need the extra loyalty points anyway), is there anyone deluded enough to think we would have sold out our full allocation of tickets for a reserve team away match on a Tuesday night if loyalty points had not been on offer? How many fans normally go to an away team reserve match?
Need to be careful about an over-reaction here and using a sledgehammer to crack a nut. Can't see there will be many games at all where this happens (possibly no more this season except an unattractive FA Cup away tie oop North perhaps).
Put it down to experience, and for similar future games (ie cheap, unattractive ones) don't offer any points at all?

Absolutely, see you at the Amex at 15:00 Saturday, you might be a bit lonely though
No big deal really is it? If you wanted a ticket you could have got one for this game easily so if you missed out I think it's your own fault. A lot of the people that moan about tickets don't try hard to get one. Be quick off the blocks and you'll be ok but you can't expect a ticket for every away game if you don't go to many.
It seems to me the club created the issue by offering lots of points for cheap tickets. It was clear what would happen and frankly I don't blame people for wanting more points to attend away matches.
Storm in tea cup. Let's focus on supporting the team on Saturday or moaning depending on what kind of fan you are!

Is this a long running problem with all clubs and their loyalty schemes?
Sounds to me like the scheme itself is the problem and you know what they say, play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
Because the league game was more appealing therefore worth less points.
