Another big let down is that if you just rock up for games and don’t take out any subscriptions you don’t get any Loyalty points at all :evil:

That’s what I normally do these days and personally I am not fussed about loyalty points. I have lost loads from the past, but I can get tickets to all the games I want to attend even if that means sitting in with the home fans occasionally.

I get fans being upset, but it’s not like we’re riding high in the Champ and tickets are in high demand. Also, I have purchased tickets last minute from people on x before.

Yes, seems a strange time to bring out a scheme like this, ie languishing in league one and with a general lethargy around regarding the fans. The place is barely half full at the best of times at the moment and as you say, you can generally get tickets to most games. I'm past caring too much about loyalty points also, especially after losing loads when the club revamped the scheme a couple of years ago. The club needs to appease the fans, not alienate them.

Yes, I agree with that too. I am still in celebration mode now that the season is over and I am no longer being "forced" up to watch that rubbish. I am sick of it all so the idea now of trying to understand a whole new model, with lots of changes, talking about loyalty, access to more content, a club shirt etc... just leaves me feeling empty.

I am still struggling with the 12 month term situation when the season is measured ... as a season. So why are they forcing it to run like a calendar year and including a 3-month notice period. It just seems overly complex.

Probably one of the biggest concerns that I’ve seen people complain about is the loyalty points for kids. So if you don’t go, you don’t get the points. With the number of Saturday 3pm games moved to midweek games, young kids can’t go because the game finished too late for them on a school night. If the parent goes on their own they get the points. Meaning the parent then starts accumulating more points than the child and puts them out of sync on the loyalty points and could mean over time they end up in different brackets. Making it harder for them to go to the big games together.
