don't see why they should go on sale to season ticket holders as i bet there's thousands who haven't been to any away games this season. fans who have already been to away games this season should get priority over fans that haven't. i hope i get a ticket for this one anyhow
Supposing, hypothetically speaking, I had a ticket for Dan, but he couldn't go -- which other young person would I offer it to?
Buzsaky is God, who seems to think she has a God-given right to attend (how many Watford games have you been to with the boyfriend, by the way?)?
Or Nik, who is also a student, but isn't moaning and whinging about it and readily accepts that "frequent fliers" (so to speak) have more right to a ticket than him?
Hmmm, hard choice...
Personally, I'd be well pi$$ed off if the £2500 or so I pay to take my children to away games per season (and, as anyone who knows us knows, they are a bleedin' difficult pair to take anywhere, especially if my dad and his wheelchair are with us too), sacrificing any other social activities, including a decent holiday, if that loyalty wasn't rewarded in some way, ie: first dibs on tickets for crucial games.
Sorry if that upsets anyone -- it isn't about who is the best fan, but about who has been able to shift their backsides up and down the country the most during the season. There is a difference.

Very well said Swanley
I would wager that she has seen Watford play more this season then QPR
I remember years ago where everyone had to queue up to get tickets and the queue was from Ellerslie Rd right round Loftus Road, thro Batman and all the way down SA road to White City stadium.
I, as a little boy lived in Loftus Road and my Grand Father who lived in Ealing queued up all night in freezing conditions and we had to go and supply him and others with hot tea and soup all night. The reward was 4 tickets against Chelski.
God bless Grand dad

Indeed and it was not that long ago that we had to do that as I remember queuing all night for a Brentford away ticket and I think a mate did to get us Chesterfield tickets
