I have 192 out of a possible 202 Loyalty points, so I'm hoping that should be enough. I hope missing the Macclesfield game doesn't come back to haunt me!
No idea where I've dropped the other 5 points though?!

If thats the only game you've missed you'll be fine, i'd imagine the majority of other season ticket holders have missed more than just 1 game.

Probably something to do with the 5 points bonus thing for renewing your ST early

Nope. Just thought I'd show off.

Really?
As in the 2007/2008 ST?
I can do that right now on the plastic if it'll nudge me up 5 more points!

That was from this season's ticket:

A five point bonus will also be awarded to any member who renews their membership/enrols for the 2006/07 season before close of business on 31st July 2006.

So unless you renewed your ST before 31/6/06 you won't have those points

Nah, that's for members only I think, the ST deadline for this current season was 1st June 2006 if I recall correctly.
So where on earth are those stray 5 points from!?!?! :confused:

Oops I thought it went for ST holders too

As it's 5 points missing I guess it has to be from an FA Cup, Carling Cup or CL group game

Just been through all the cup fixtures and haven't missed any others?!
*shrug*

Well I'd imagine I should have enough points anyway, but it's going to bug me now!

maybe you get x amount of points per game + 5 bonus points if you've attended all games?

Have a think about the lack of effect that would have on the total points gained

BaZ87 · 20 Apr 2007 at 18:01

I know that would be totally pointless to have a system like that but it would explain why he's missing an extra 5 points when he's only missed the one game.

Found out where the other 5 points went, apparently the Celtic pre-season friendly counts, which I didn't attend.

There will be lots of tickets available on the black market at inflated prices, for some reason every club that is a member of the FA gets a ticket allocation and they seem to find there way into the hands of the touts!

I've always thought the whole thing was a bit of a farce the season saints made it to the final you could still pick up black market tickets on the day with Saints ones oddly being more expensive than Arsenal?!? Not sure they will be as many to go round this year when you look at the large 'glory' fan base that these sides attract.

All incidental in the end, they're dishing them out on a first come first served basis to ST holders.
Early morning for me on May 2nd then, already booked that morning off to spend hitting refresh repeatedly until I get logged into my ticket account.
I'll be damned if I'm missing out on a ticket.
