I would say the same. Although with a bit of luck I can see a few tickets make All STH.

This is a bit of common misconception though (only quoting you as it was the latest one). If STH's regularly go to away games, they will continue to be in the top bands. Assuming they had the ST since 2014. The problem is that anyone who got a ST after 2014, in particular 2/3 years after or later, will almost forever be battling it out in the All STH bracket, doesn't matter whether they do Sunderland on a midweek or not. They cannot catch up. Someone who has been to 1 or 2 away games in 10 years has more of a priority than those "newbies" and will remain so for seasons to come. That is the main issue. The other example for this, if someone has had a ST for 5 years and gone to 10 away games a season, they will be in the same priority group as someone who got their first ST this year and has never been to an away game. I am praying the club finally pull their fingers out and realise that fans who haven't been STH's since 2014/15 deserve some changes to make this a fair system. It doesn't even benefit me and might even hamper my own priority bracket but at the end of the day it is about being fair to the wider fanbase.

In all honesty, who cares. Just enjoy what we are doing. Doesn't matter how and when you win something. Spurs would bite your hand off for a trophy!

To be fair, this discussion is ongoing no matter which games are coming up. Of course, when the quick seller games appear it amplifies the conversation.

What about fans who watched the darker days in the early/mid 00's? Why shouldn't they be rewarded? Currently 2014 is the start of being a loyal Leicester City fan. Doesn't seem quite right or fair? There should be some reward for loyalty I agree with that, but it needs to be proportionate. Just because you hold a ST for 10 years doesn't mean you should forever hold priority on away games over someone who has only had a ST for 5 years. I do feel for anyone who hasn't had a ST for 10 years because they are always in a mad scramble for games in the All STH bracket. Fans should be rewarded for putting in the hard yards.

It's not though. People only recently getting ST's will never catch up to the next level using the current system. People are being rewarded for having a ST since we were promoted to the PL in 2014 (myself included). People going to away games regularly should be rewarded.

Would be surprised if this isn't one of the TV picks. Friday night would be a prime candidate.

Don't think Ipswich will send any back. Doesn't hit their general sale for another 6 days. They will likely sell out.

Starting imminently

It was scheduled for Saturday 24th February

All they care about is whether you have any dangerous goods on you (and some don't even check that properly). Ticket wise the home team stewards really don't care unless you bought a £5 child ticket and are clearly an adult.

Unless I have misunderstood, then yes you will need to buy a membership for yourself as well. If your son has one he cannot buy a ticket because he is under 18. He will need you to buy one with him, and if you don't have a membership, you will struggle. Generally, memberships are worth it if you go to a fair few games and particularly if you want a ST before the expansion

Exactly. Even something simple like 5 points if you have a ST this season (2023/24), 3 for season before (2022/23), 1 for season before that (2021/22). That way you have some loyalty bonus but it also gives a "newby" the chance to catch you up by going to 5 away matches this season (2023/24). The same could be done for members. 3 points for current season, 1 for last season. Or something like that. This system would then reward people for making the effort to travel to away games and makes it much more of a level playing field.

I am referring to someone who might never have been to an away game getting priority over someone who has been to a fair few. The current system gives advantage based on how long you have held a ST for. It needs to change to make it fairer for those who haven't had a ST for 10 years. For reference, I sit in P1 but I disagree with the current system. It can, and should, be much better and fairer.

Don't want to keep derailing this thread but wanted to add some thoughts here. Why should you get any priority points for holding a ST when buying tickets for an away match? Of course, STH's get priority over members but in my view, if I am buying an away ticket, home points should be irrelevant. A STH who has been to 10 away games should get priority on away tickets over a STH who has only been to 2 away games, irrespective of how long they have held said ST. Surely that's not unreasonable?

I bet if you had a shopping receipt during the match hours you'd easily get away with it (e.g. if your wife shopped as you were at the game).

Happy new year! I have personally missed your contributions, welcome back. I did think of you the other day actually, while I was sat on the sh1tter.

The 48 stagecoach bus (might even be called 148 these days) drops near the ground (maybe 10 min walk). Goes from Nuneaton anyway

I think this changed recently as previously the "guest" got no points. I bought for someone the other week because they couldn't buy a ticket on their own account so they will now have their first point.

This is the Championship, no game is a given. What we have done so far is incredible if you think about it. Doesn't matter who you are in this league. Ipswich also get lots of credit for keeping up with us considering they were freshly promoted. We will get promoted, even if we have a lull at some point. Win tonight and we seriously pull away. Draw and we edge that little bit further, even a loss still keeps us well on top. All in our hands.

They have gone up to 3/2 weekend

Due to illness I have (begrudgingly) decided to give my ticket up for this. So, 1 adult ticket available at FV (£17). Will ideally need collection from Hinckley area.

Yes, ideally the players would thank anyone left at the end. However, given the fact the majority of "fans" (attendees is probably a better word) don't put any effort in, you can't blame them on focussing on areas they appreciate. And it's not down to your individual effort, unfortunately, it's just the area you were sat in generically.

This will sell out today. Unlikely that more tickets will be made available.
