I can't wait to get back to The Amex. Very excited at the prospect.
On the plus side I can finally take the name of my ex (we split up 8 years ago) off my second ticket for a mere £20. On the downside, Mrs T rarely attends games so I use my second ticket to take one of my brothers or various pals to the games. If I can't do that any more I'll have to bin my second ticket.

Can’t be bothered to read through all these pages but it’s basically £20 extra to do what most people did anyway right? Ie a mate use your season ticket..!? Annoying but c’est la vie.
Will be interesting to see what they do about loyalty points given that no one has had the chance to increase their points

Everyone is in the same position so it doesn’t matter.......just carry them forward.
But it depends if they will take away 50% again at the end of the season like usual, which is guess is what he was meaning which is a bit unfair if they do

....unfair on who ? They’ll take 50% away from everyone
Which part? It all seems very reasonable to be honest.
So about 18 months ago I spoke to the club and explained that my father was unable to get over from Ireland to use his season ticket regularly, possibly at all, due to illness. As he is 65+, asked about having it changed to a full adult one so it could be used by other adults during these circumstances. Email from Paul Barber making clear this would be completely out of kilter with Premier League regulations, and that there is a massive season ticket waiting list so he either needed to use it or lose it. For context, he's been an STH since 1993.
12 months ago, he receives a letter from the club saying his season ticket is being cancelled and withdrawn with immediate effect due to non-use.
Today, the club announces an initiative to allow all STH's to transfer tickets an unlimited amount of times.

Well really the options are:
1. Pay £20 extra and get your mates to be MyAlbion+ members so you can officially pass season tickets over to them
2. Put seats on the ticket exchange for matches you can't attend
3. Nothing and if you can't attend the seat is empty.
That is the choices available.
A fan who attends most away matches might have 200 when we last went to a match, they lost 100 last year and will lose 50 this year leaving 50.
A fan who didn't go much away might have had 80 so now would have 20 so only 30 points fewer now when they started 120 behind.
The fan who attended lots of away matches looses out more as they have been unable to increase their points during the last season.
