[Albion] The annual loyalty points decimation

[Is it PotG?]

Will points awarded be proportionate to distance travelled?

Generally speaking, although not ALWAYS, the farthest and less attractive ties get rewarded with higher ST points.
Will a game in Toulouse, for example, attract the same amount as a game in Azerbaijan?
I can see points the likes of 150+ being on the table in some cases, happy days.

I think this could happen. Didn’t Paul Barber used to work for the FA when the England Supporters Travel Club was brought in?

Maybe, but wasn’t he in a marketing role ? Also England fans just used to be proof of travel until ‘recently’ when it was mandatory pick up with ID in the host city.

Can’t imagine Brighton doing day before + day of the game like England , but day of the game should work fine

Howcomes?

If I buy a ticket for Turkmenistan, if I'm making the effort I want the points.

Fair doos Shirley.

One thing I do hope is that European football was not taken into account when they drew up the T & Cs for the 1901s and that they don't get to jump the queue (unless of course the individual getting the tickets has enough of their own loyalty points).

do you enjoy the points more than the football?

Too bloody right.

1901 members don’t get to ‘jump the queue’ for anything so it won’t be any different here. They receive the same points as anyone else for a season ticket, and then accumulate points for away games as everyone else does.

It would make sense I suppose. The 1500 with the tickets would attain God like status with their 900 odd points for 6 European matches. You could all retire on the proceeds.

 

[Gazwag]

I wouldn't be surprised if the club outsource organised away travel to someone like Sportsworld, who run it for England away games. I imagine the club have got more than enough on their plate......

Yes i didn't mean them to actually do but contract it out to an organisation who wouldn't fleece the fans

Does the ticket accumulate the points or an individual with a fan number?

they'll just halve them next year

Not decimate?

Exactly 50% then?

Hmmmm. Sportsworld trips are usually around the £400 mark for a 'daytrip', which would include flights and transfers to/from the ground, usually with a few hours in the host city before kick off. The main selling points of these trips is that everything is organised for you whilst limiting the amount of time you have to take off work. There are usually much cheaper ways of doing it independently, especially if you have some annual leave to play with.

maybe less

 

[Ooh it’s a corner]

The ticket site seems to be down currently - will that be the loyalty points update amongst other things does anyone know?

They were removed from the latest T&C’s, like season ticket holders, it will come down to points amassed.

 

[Sue1983]

I guess this has been asked before but I couldn't find it with the search option.

Could someone point me to where I can see my loyalty points ?
