Not sure 1901s still get 1100. Pretty sure the first 5 year contract was 1100, but thought it had now dropped to like 1050 or maybe even 1030

I along with many other lads will most likely never get a ticket for an away game now

Was 1030 and bumped up to 1100. Obvs never a real issue before but now it seems a shame that cash buys "loyalty".Not sure 1901s still get 1100. Pretty sure the first 5 year contract was 1100, but thought it had now dropped to like 1050 or maybe even 1030

1303.5 Hope that gets me a Bournemouth ticket which looks to have the smallest allocation by some way.

Yes all correct its an accumulation from ST for each season at Amex bonus in 1st season as Withdean ST holder attending every home cup game each season and going to at least half the away games each season which means that the starting total each season has increased
I heard it was 1050...
1050 is for "Gold" ST - those STH who take every home cup game up front, but then don't get additional points for however many home cup games are actually played. 1100 for 1901, with the same deal - no additional points for home cup games.
Yep...though the Withdean 250 LP ST bonus is now worth a grand total of 4 points.
Assuming STH since Withdean, 2 home and 1 away cup games per season as an average, and attending all 23 away league games every season, it's possible to end this season on 1555 LP. If 1901 it'd be around 1600 (some seasons the LP was 1030, it's now 1100 - cba to work it out...)

I think most folk on above 1050 should find they will get an opportunity to get tickets for away games with 2500k to 3000k away allocations

I stand corrected, I hadn't heard that. Wow there could be some amazing crowds there next season!

NSC is the great melting pot for a ticket binfest.
Most clubs next year will offer a higher allocation than what most clubs offered this year.
Clearly demand will outstrip supply for the big 6 and a few others but in reality this year, those who have been to a few away games, if organised have been able to get tickets.
I might be wrong, but the only game that has sold out early in the second priority window was Villa, and this potnetially had a load riding on it and was 2700 tickets.
Not disagreeing that we would, if we could take up to 10k to the likes of Stamford Bridge or The Emirates so clearly some will miss out, but I wager those who attended a few away games this season and are season tickets will not have too many issues securing a ticket for the big ones next term.

I suspect that the system will feel more broken this season than it has before.
I'm usually in the top bracket for away games, sometimes the second, but I feel it's wrong that I get additional points for buying tickets to a game, when I can only get a ticket due to the points I already have.
It's not just unfair on those who don't get a ticket; it also works as a barrier for those who want to try out going to an away game.

I suppose it's just how it is. I didn't have enough points for Brentford as I’d only been to 4 away games previous to that game. After that I went to Barnsley, Forrest, Rotherham, Leeds and QPR and built up enough points to easily get tickets for Norwich and Villa. You have to go to some of the less “glamorous” games to build up the points up for the more popular big games. The system is there to reward those that put in the miles etc. To be fair I’d have gone to the away games anyway it wasn’t loyalty points they are just a nice additional extra.
Not sure how it could be any better though I do feel for those Northern based seagulls fans (For starts the poor buggers have to live up north, imagine the horror!) that might go to 10/15 away games a season then not have the points for bigger games as they don’t have a season ticket. Unless they have a travel club style system just for away games like some of the clubs with large away followings.

Away Season Ticket surely
Your logic is impeccable. However, is it not right that those who have attended (or at least bought tickets for) away games over previous seasons have first dibs on away tickets now that we'll be playing teams that will attract a lot more "away JCLs", who just fancy Old Trafford (say) rather more than Turf Moor last season?
The whole issue of whether 1901ers or "Gold" members deserve a higher starting balance is a different thing...
You mean only for away games? Cos there already is a "platinum" ticket, which is every game (including cup) home and away, attracting 1330 LP...
An away-only ST penalises those home fans (who put money into the club - away tickets generate practically zero revenue for the club) who want to travel to away games...

There is an away season ticket already I believe.
