This board usually favours assaults on entrenched privilege and broadening opportunities

In this case they seem to feel that they should be entitled to hang on to what they’ve got, because they earned it

Funny old world 🤷🏻‍♂️

    - And what is done is done (NCFC) - Basingstoke_Canary_J, Jul 24, 11:00:34
      - this is a board for opinions. (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Jul 24, 11:03:10
        
        Of course. Just highlighting that your opinion has already been said (NCFC) - Basingstoke_Canary_J, Jul 24, 11:07:07
        
        This is the first time the new away ticketing system has been put into use. (NCFC) - maidstoneyellow, Jul 24, 11:18:22
        
        Fair enough. Just wondering is this a year long thing (n/m) (NCFC) - Basingstoke_Canary_J, Jul 24, 11:19:28
        
        I doubt it. I think the first few away games was always going to generate ill-feeling (n/m) (NCFC) - maidstoneyellow, Jul 24, 11:24:19
        
        And i guess every top 6 game throughout the year. (n/m) (NCFC) - Basingstoke_Canary_J, Jul 24, 11:29:16
        
        Because today is the first stark example of how many fans have been screwed over (NCFC) - Jim, Jul 24, 11:15:52
        
        Can't blame the club for people purchasing membership's for first shot at tickets (NCFC) - Basingstoke_Canary_J, Jul 24, 11:21:58
        
        how would your suggestion (NCFC) - CWC, Jul 24, 11:32:48

        I'm sorry, is there now a limit (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Jul 24, 11:11:18
        
        If it matters that much to you then why are you not outside the club shop (NCFC) - Basingstoke_Canary_J, Jul 24, 11:17:02
        
        No. It’s to make money. Pure and simple. Nothing to do with discouraging opposition fans (n/m) (NCFC) - Jim, Jul 24, 14:54:43
        
        It isn't clear the reason for £50 membership is to stop fans from other clubs buying (NCFC) - maidstoneyellow, Jul 24, 11:23:28
        
        It wouldn't of been a £50 lottery ticket (NCFC) - Basingstoke_Canary_J, Jul 24, 11:31:40
        
        Your understanding (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Jul 24, 11:21:24
        
        Then you haven't done a very good job at explaining it. (n/m) (NCFC) - Basingstoke_Canary_J, Jul 24, 11:22:25
        
        I am negatively affected by the changes (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Jul 24, 11:28:41
        
        And so am I (NCFC) - Basingstoke_Canary_J, Jul 24, 11:33:07
    - well using the example ingi describes, he is an exile who pays money for lots of away game (NCFC) - Charles21, Jul 24, 10:58:22
      - that was not ingi's example (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Jul 24, 11:08:16
      - The argument from him there is that you already have a guarnteed ticket (NCFC) - Basingstoke_Canary_J, Jul 24, 11:01:31
  - This board usually favours assaults on entrenched privilege and broadening opportunities (NCFC) - Old Git, Jul 24, 10:38:49
    - Challenging the privilege obtained by buying football tickets for many years in a row (NCFC) - Arizona Bay, Jul 24, 12:00:55

- You both now have an equal chance to get a tickets. (NCFC) - Basingstoke_Canary_J, Jul 24, 10:21:48
  - The answer is in your post...'equal' (n/m) (NCFC) - neverblue, Jul 24, 11:52:21
