That would make season ticket holder (1,000) plus 5 away games (50 each) which isn''t too bad for a prem season, I though it might be a bit higher too.

Hilariously, myself and my dad have not missed an away game in 4 years, and only missed a total of 8 in the last 6 years, I apparently have 1150?

Bit of a pisser for those of us who don''t live in Norfolk though. If you''re not a season ticket holder then you can''t get enough points, even if you went to every away game which is a joke.

I''m a priority member and got to 2 home games and 6 away last season so I only have 900 points as my 300mile round trips to Norfolk don''t even earn me one solitary point!

Should be 50 points per home game if not a season ticket holder and then 75 or 100 for each away game. That would at least keep it fair for everyone, not just the locals.

Any system like this is never going to please everyone unfortunately.But, for what its worth, I don''t think its fair giving a home season ticket holder 1000 points straight off. It does discriminate against people who go away more often, which is what the points system is meant to be about.Don''t get me wrong, I''ll take the 1000 points lol.

I don''t live in Norfolk and I''m a season ticket holder and went to 7 away games last season.

I think it''s totally fair giving season ticket holders more points to start with.

Where do you draw the line though Morty, yeah I can see your point but as a season ticket holder you deserve some perks, as you say maybe you should get more points for being a non season ticket holder and away games say 75 or 100.

It''s like saying that I should get more points because I I do a 250 mile round trip to every home game and did 7 away games, rather than someone who lives in the city and 5 miles to home games.

What is it, 50 points a game? So someone could have gone to every single away game last season, and is way behind every season ticket holder.Surely the system is meant to reward people who travel away regularly, rather than folks who just pick and choose the odd game?

I agree with your point and disagree lol, if you were going to go to every away game or even 16 out of 19 you would get an away season ticket that would guarantee you a ticket.

I think they give you 1000 for a season ticket holder as that works out at roughly 50 points per game (19 x 50 = 950 + 50 bonus points lol)

That is how I see it working it''s points per game gone to home or away.

Say I didn''t go to away games, I don''t think I should be prioritised over someone who puts in thousands of miles travelling all over the country.Like I said, I have had my perk, I get the home games cheaper.

I like debates like this, no name calling or bravado or one-up-manship just people having differing opinions and respecting each others.

That''s what a forum should be about.

That''s how it should be done, some complex formula that has home games attended, away games attended x distance travelled x cost of tickets x cost of travel / inside leg measurement

You made the implication that it is somehow a rarity that a season ticket holder would also go to away games.And I gave the example that actually, virtually every season ticket holder I know, does also attend away games.Well obviously not every single season ticket holder travels to every away game!Jeez this is hard work, I don''t even know what your original point was!
