It is only fair in SOME cases.
ALL STH have paid their £500 and therefore officially attend every home match.
SOME AMS members keep the players going on a Tuesday night
in Yeovil, and attend many away matches all over the country. They certainly deserve equal priority.
SOME AMS members attend very few matches over a number of seasons. They deserve NO priority whatsoever over STH. How can the 50/50 split be justified until there is a way of measuring AMS games attended?

I think the administration of measuring attendance is beyond the means of the Albion. The money and organisation needed to set this up would be beyond their financial resources considering the money is needed just to keep afloat. It's not a good priority of spending for them at the moment! It's a good idea for the future though.

Well let's just have a free for all like the good old days.
I don't mind queuing over night to ensure I get a ticket.
BTW Money hasn't been taken from my account yet and I had a golden Millwall Stub.

Probably because we still haven't received the tickets from West Ham.

But I'm sure when the AMS was first announced, they were going to do exactly that. It was only the outcry from supporters at the time that stopped it happening.
The problem, as I recall was down to timing, as it was introduced in the middle of a season. There is no reason why it can't now be introduced from a fixed point in time to stop this argument once and for all every time people think they may miss out. Regular travellers should never feel that they are hard done by, IMO. (I wouldn't call myself a regular traveller, by the way, unless 5 away games a season is regular).

Sorry but I disagree - they need only make a call to Wycombe for another small club example, as per the point I made earlier in this thread. There are hundreds of off the shelf packages available for small businesses or huge BCFs. The Albion are a business after all - "we're all consumers of a product" (not fans!)" remember - so it's not beyond the wit of man to run a business that accumulates loyalty points.
I'm still certain we'll all get tickets but if we don't, then some (possibly even me!) will have good grounds for complaint. As per many others previous points, why do we always wait for the bigger games to test the current schemes and expose all its flaws? Aren't all STHs a member of the AMS anyway.....?

The ticket office know EXACTLY what tickets you have bought over this or any recent season, and could assign 'loyalty points' quite easily. The point you are missing is that many other clubs let us turn up and pay at the gate.
I've been to a few away games this year, all of which the club could not possibly know anything about.
You'll have to surmount this before your scheme has any real value.

Actually I had already thought of that. Other clubs sell their away tickets too so it counts these. Not as flexible as turning up on the day I hear some cry? Probably the same people saying supporters should be organised in advance to get WH tickets no doubt! You can't measure loyalty for some eg STH and not AMS, especially when the former provide the clubs hard revenue annually.

You are correct, there were many people who objected and complained about this - the funny thing was that at the time, most away games were all ticket as we were in Div 3 and took 1k everywhere.
bottom line is that there will be always those who miss out. I would like tickets for my family (including some young uns who couldn't go to millwall on a schoolnight). However if we dont get all the tickets we want, then so be it. I wont be happy, but I wont be whinging. However I can see that there are many who deserve tickets more than I do and certainly more than some of my party do. I applied within the rules and will see how many of our group get some, there are 4 stubs worth of people so it will be a case of seeing how many of the rest get a ticket.

Apologies if fixtures but this reply from insider seems to imply that anyone whose application arrived on Thursday last week would get a ticket.
Therefore what is all the fuss about?
