i wasnt happy about the fact we may have only had a 2000 allocation for blackpool.i know it didnt matter in the end but we may have a similar problem if we qualify for the GF.
at season start i attended on my own or with my son.as per the clubs request to increase gates for revenue/licence bid etc there are now 5 in my party that go to all games.none of us are season ticket holders so theres no guarentee of 5 tickets come a big match which is totally unfair on fans who go to toulouse,gateshead etc.
i suggest the club issues tokens or a double match ticket for the whitehaven/toulouse home games.on buying these the club would guarentee a GF ticket as with the season ticket holders.
anyone got any views or a better idea ?

Its the same with every club in every division. Season ticket holders get priority, and rightly so. If Fax do get to a final, all the fair weather fans will come out of the woodwork and get tickets.

There should be a middle ground though. We haven't got that many season tickets, so there should be priority for the ones between ST holders and our allocation. For eg Haighy, I don't have a ST as I know I won't go every week, yet I'm hardly what you would call a fair weather fan am I, and I'm sure I am nowhere near the only one in the same point, the OP does have a valid point.

yes i am also in the same boat on this i dont have a season ticket and if we had of got to the blackpool final i would have probably have missed it because of the ticket.

i go to all the home matches throughout the season and try to go to as many away games as i can but i am sure i am not the only one who cant afford to go toulouse or other places or have other commitements on the day of a match thats just how it is but i do support my team throughout the season and i am also worried about not being able to go to the final if we got there.

I understand the problems with regard to supporter who pay on the gate,you come to most if not all of the games yet miss out when it comes to ticket allocation. But unfortunately there is nothing in place to help this problem, and you have to fight for a ticket with the fair weather fans, which i do think is wrong because you are important to the success of the club.

The club could issue a voucher system throughout the season, or a loyalty card which is stamped at each home game and when you have a selected number it entitles you to priority ticket allocation. If you are a member of cashfax, gold club or supporters club one of the benefits of being a member is priority ticket allocation.

There are ways in which to reward our loyal supporters, who support the team on a game by game basis.

Good idea.
What if the Grand Final is a Repeat of the Northern Rail final.

Some excellent ideas there.

We won't need tickets then will we.
