I used to last season but I am a season ticket holder now.
If I can't use my tickets I have friends who need them. Away tickets I always apply in plenty of time
Sorry that makes me sound smug but there are always people who start screaming for tickets two days before a match when it has stated quite clearly for weeks that a match is all ticket.
I use it pretty much every week to get my Dad a ticket during his stay over here from Aus.
I also got a Plymouth and Bournemouth ticket for him (who is in the AMS now courtesy of his generous son!!) and 3 Brentford tickets for the rest of the family Rougvie last night via the forum.
I do agree with you Yorkie about applying fot tickets, but it has been very handy for me.
