Much fairer than the queue jumping you are so keen on.

Still going on and on and on and on.....
And what you have written is true to form, blinkered, trammelled and also contradictory.
'the club will accomodate you while they let a JCL....get to the top of the list'
So they are helping you and the Johnny come lately? Weird reasoning.
Tough one, A club has to grow it’s fan base. So any new fan is a JCL surely. Your 5 year old is a JCL.
Start to teach your grandson patience and turn taking. Stick him on the waiting list and by the age of 8 he will have season ticket. Teach him now that he can’t queue jump.
What ever happens to us over the next few seasons, the waiting list will come down or disappear depending on what league we are in. As some have said even if we stay in this league the novelty will wear off. I’m a STH along with my daughter and this maybe our last season. My daughter as children do is more interested in her social life, going out with friends then football. As for me I would like to just attend a few games as and when work will allow. I suspect there are a few more people like me out there, it’s natural turn over

Yes, I would admit my mistake but I fear that would weaken my position as the 'one true voice'.
I wouldn't want my acolytes thinking I'm no longer infallible.
It's only fair that descendants of @BG who are new to the Albion, queue jump adults and kids who've been patiently waiting on the list.
The 5,000 on the waiting list can't possibly be 'true' fans, whereas the @BG clan are special fans.

I fail to see how an accident of birth should give someone priority. You, and thousands of others, deserve certain priorities due to your supporting history. Jack has no supporting history and the fact that he is your grandson is irrelevant. He has no more rights than any other 5-year-old, regardless of the supporting history of their forefathers.

What if every single person on the waiting list is 5 years old and son of a STH?

Funny. But we don't often see the 'I'll admit I'm wrong' bit very often, do we?

This is a QUALITY thread, by the way. I've been away with slightly patchy network coverage, so I'm only seeing it in all its glory now!
Great job, everyone

Nice to see the love-in for BG crumble without me

I found out a while back that my grandfather had a season ticket in the early 1930's, surely that alone should mean I am FIRST in the queue for a Spurs ticket ?

Sorry Jack, as clearly explained throughout this thread, it ain't happening.
Do you have any young children, nephews or nieces? If so, they should be able to queue jump the entire 5,000 waiting list. It's only right.

I am not sure how many times I have to say this but my son has decided that he will enrol Jack as Junior Seagull Plus which will put him on the waiting list. So the problem will be solved.

Where were all these 5-year-olds at Priestfield? That's what I want to know.
.... and kept in a Cryogenic Chamber since 1999 to keep them age 5, in readiness for a battle against despotic Barber and NSC in October 2017 over ancestral rights to queue jump.
