    It's all "ballax", Allen

    Where have all these ticketing experts come from suddenly? :eek:

    Whatever the club can do to sell the game out, they will do. I can't see them being too fussed over whether they sell them to (part time) BFC Supporters or (regular) Chelsea ones...

    Unless we get to the next round, the part timers will be gone again in a couple of weeks time - never to be seen again.

    Priority over people who have no ticket stubs?

    In fact I propose we introduce a distance from Oakwell matchday ticket scheme to sell Chelsea tickets.

    As I went to QPR, Charlton, Coventry and Liverpool away this season I've racked up an amazing 5,000 loyalty points and jump to category one, ahead of season ticket holders.

    But hang on, I went in the exec box for the Coventry game so must lose 50% of my points for not purchasing the ticket from the club. and for not sitting with the fans. Back to category three or four then.

    I don't recall seeing anyone on Saturday who vaguely even resembled anything other than a committed Barnsley fan. Maybe 200 out of 6,000 weren't Reds fans, nothing more.

    I don't mean it like that, I mean that you having a ticket for the liverpool game doesn't make you any more of a fan than those that didnt, it simply means that you know a season ticket holder and they chose to buy you a ticket so it shouldn't be used as a way to prove you are more deserving of a ticket for the chelsea game

    Well it depends how many categories you want

    But if someone could only produce a stub from that game and no league games then no, I wouldn't give them any priority this time, as we know that although some 'real' fans got tickets, we also know that a Plymouth fan, Liverpool fans and a number of other people who don't even support Barnsley got tickets.

    You should have been front of the queue for Liverpool

    Even as a STH, I didn't really complain about not getting a ticket for the last round coz it's a rarity when I get to an away game. If you went ot Southend, you should have been front of the queue for the Liverpool game.
