Oh yes indeedy. My LP s/s goes back to when they were first invented.
I’ve even got a record of the points accrued for the infamous Bournemouth game, for which I have an impeccable witness that I did attend.
You used to be able to see each transaction on your account. You no longer can. I think the only way you can check is to call Supporter Services. They’ll love you for it if you do call.
Reading FC is, imo, a tinpot club. I wish them no footballing success.
However, their fans love their club the same way we love ours, and it’s perfectly clear that the ownership of their club is materially sub-optimal. I wish them every success in getting rid of the current owners. I’d chip in...
A ‘loophole’, I think, is an unintended event/consequence. By that definition, given it’s been in place 12 years and the club have removed getting on for 10 other benefits that were originally included, but not this one, I personally don’t believe it’s remotely close to a loophole. It’s quite...
No edge to the question in any way, just curious: 'a lot' = how many people (roughly)? A lot of different people or the same people a lot of times? I'm trying to get to is this a big problem or a small problem which will (understandably) irritate a large swathe of our fan base...
There are two factors that determine your LP - the length of time you've held a ST (8 years maxes out your entitlement - at 200) and the number of home cup games and the number of away games you've done over the last several years - with the value of those done 6 years ago being worth 3% of the...
Let's be clear (@jackalbion too), it's not a 'loophole'. It's a benefit that has been in place for 12 years - and not taken away when many other benefits have been deliberately removed.
A benefit that, imo, should never have been put in place.
However, to the extent that the benefit is used...
You can only buy a ticket for an away game you have the LP for. Somebody would have had to put the miles in at the start to climb the greasy pole. But once there, it does seem as though you can keep there by buying tix and passing them on.
As to how many - I don’t know any who buy them and pass...
It’s only in the last roughly 2 years that I realised 1901ers could trf away tix. We’ve always been able to trf home tix, and I’ve done so on rare occasions when unable to make a game, but I’ve never transferred an away ticket. It’s only this season that we’ve had to specify the user of an away...
I don’t know (being an individual 1901, not the owner of a corporate ticket), but I suspect the answer is yes. Of course, in order to buy the ticket in the first place the owner would have had to have enough points - but if your assertion is right, then once they’ve got to (say) T1, they’d be...
