No real issue with the allocation, it's a dick move by them but it's their decision and it's within the rules. The decision by us to have a ballot is worse. There is no need to change the sales method for one game. No need for ballots or upping the points or whatever. Keeping things as they were would have been simplest and fairest.

Genuine conversation ?.......I'm more than happy to have a genuine conversation.

Let's hear some guidelines ?.......How far do you go back......2014 when we won at Ewood with goals from Shackell and Ings ?........or perhaps 1960 when your man Douglas scored the most disputed penalty of all time ?.......When is it ?
First Derby was the 0-0 at your place in ‘05. Shite game as I remember made more entertaining through a string of pitch invaders one of which was breakdancing bollocko 😂

What’s your opinion on the allocation Royboy?

When did I say regularly?

All I was trying to get across is that I came on here to have a genuine conversation and had posted on here before.

Don’t know what you think you’ve caught me out on here fella 😂
Fair play to you for having the patience to stick around on here for so long to try and have adult conversation with this set of children

Last few pages are pretty cringe and it sounds like dandeclaret has been listening to too much Joni Mitchell again and gone a bit doolally

My opinion......Well I was on the Turf for that second game I referenced in 1960 when there was a crowd of over 51,000......with probably 5,000 of those from Blackburn.......So limiting Burnley to 2,000 for this game seems to me a bit poor.

See I can understand the frustrations of course, and I understand you gave us what you could but I don’t think the allocation at your place has had a bearing on this. I think this is a football decision. We know it’s a bit of a mountain to climb to get anything and we’re pulling out all the stops we can. I think the club are right to be trying to help us get a result in every way they can.

I can understand the frustrations but some of the reactions from Burnley fans basically equate to “how dare they have the gall to not let us bring an army and have a party once we’re likely to already be up”… our season isn’t going to be over as soon as yours, hopefully. We’ve gotta throw the kitchen sink at trying to get into these playoffs. If that means denying a few thousand Burnley fans a day out at Ewood then what really is it to us in the grand scheme?

Have they agreed to give the guard of honour if Burnley are already Champions by then or are they waiting to make the decision nearer the time ? It could be another way to help their play off hopes, ie by mellowing our players and firing up their own ?

Correct and that’s a bridge we’ll have to cross when we come to it but if the club think this is right for the team now we don’t have to do your fans any favours.
If you think us having less fans there will help your team you are a bigger fool than we already know you are. :lol:

Seriously clutching at straws if the genuine argument of all this is to give your team a better chance. Smacks of desperation to me.

BRFC as a club are/were bricking it...lets have it right.

Anyone who was a 2020/21 season ticket holder and had already renewed for the 2021/22 season was eligible to enter the ticketing ballot.

There were 3500 tickets available, and the club advised that over 10,000 people had renewed.

Joking apart, these 2k tickets shouldn't go in a ballot for a luck of the draw chance to be allocated a ticket, my way would be to look back over this and last seasons sales and offer the tickets to those that have travelled the most, and before anyone jumps all over me I wouldn't be one of these, I've not attended a lot of away game's over the past five seasons because of work commitments

On the plus side at least we won't have to deal with them next season.

Obviously as a club they need to do everything the can to try and close the huge gap between the 2 clubs, the first game gave them an insight into how far they are from being able to compete with us. This for them is a cup final and they have to do what they can in the hope they aren't embarrassed again. Some of their fans still cry today about their performance that day when we were just way too much for them it makes sense to do what they can.

You can bet no club in this division would give them the lowest allocation of the season due to not being good enough to compete with them. Take it as the compliment it is.

I wouldn't be so sure about us not playing them next season. They are obviously fifth in the league and they are top of the form table. They look an improved side of late.

As for the allocation, it's poor from our perspective but it's their decision and within the rules. So not great for our supporters, and from a personal point of view I won't be entering the ballot even though I'm eligible - can't be arsed with it.

I personally think, given the circumstances, having a ballot of an eligible (probably not all will apply) 4000 people for 2000 tickets is a better way to do it than who has the fastest internet and can get a ticket in their basket first.

Iam not against the points system, but when small allocations go on sale at 10am on a weekday it does stop a big proportion of fans being able to buy one

A ballot spread over several days does give everyone the chance to get a ticket.

I'm not applying for starters!

I guess the club think the ballot system is fairer, but hasn't every away game got to at least 4000 points before selling out?

I suspect this might be how they do it in the future for close away games, especially as the amount of people with 6000 points is only going to keep getting bigger

Luton didn't and I don't think Blackpool did. They could raise the 6000 to 8000 or 10000. It sort of defeats the idea of having a points system if the Club are going to abandon it for certain games!

Easiest way for high demand is to create another tier at say 8,000 or 9,000 points

Sadly I was unable to go this the second it was postponed due to the FA Cup, as will not be possible for me to get there after work midweek.

I think the allocation is a disgrace and almost embarrassing from Blackburn really - it's effectively saying "We aren't very good are we, so let's stop as many of them from lording it over us as possible". It shows a lack of confidence in their team, and rightly so - as they are absolutely shite. I have no doubts whatsoever that the 2000 Clarets there will make more noise and have more to celebrate than whatever piffling figure the horse fiddlers can manage (judging by their shocking attendances - despite almost begging people to come with free tickets - it won't be many).

I look forward to the end of the season as we waltz into the land of rainbows and honeydrops and they sit in squalor ready for another season of nothing, with not a penny received for golden boy Brereton-Diaz as he goes to Spain for free.

Enjoy Accyblue, I'd love to say I pity you but I do not. I laugh. Heartily.

You’re not surprised that there’s more demand for the Blackburn game than the Milwall one are you?

Why is the Millwall game being used by some as a reason for being able to get a rovers ticket?

The gap shouldn't get bigger and bigger just because you was born earlier, the kids will never ever catch up and are being punished because they were born less than 20 years ago

Most of those with 6k points were in exactly the same boat several years ago, but have finally reached enough points

It's a difficult one for sure (and I say that with a points total of 9k+) and I have sympathy for this argument as my Daughter is 5 now, if she gets into football (or rather, if I manage to get her into football!) I will feel similarly down the line probably.

Maybe a higher tier at say, 8k, could be created and used only by the club on specific games as opposed to all? I.e, Luton, Blackburn etc? I don't know,

We'd need to see the amount of fans in each ticket bracket to find a fair place to increase the points system to

Away Points rolling over each two or three seasons should be used not if you've had a season ticket since the points system come out. Points system doesn't work when you see club employees bragging on twitter that his full family were at Luton including a 8 year old child going to there first ever away game, how did they get one of the 1000 tickets with around only 750 points

Don't know what all the fuss is about.

Is it really any different from when we don't cut the grass as short, we didn't water the pitch against certain teams to slow the surface down, and let's not forget the time we brought in the advertising boards to try and stop Delaps long throws.

If they think this will help them, then let them go for it..

Personally I don't think it will make a blind bit of difference to what happens on the pitch.

They are very high profile at the club so it doesn't need reporting the club sold them the ticket and thier profile is linked to the club they would of seen it but they don't care obviously

Its pretty obvious how your average fan gets a ticket for his eight year old kid btw

I don't agree with it, but the alternative is no kids going at all, and that isn't fair either

I'm not sure what we can do about this tbh

You're not wrong. We had nearly 8,000 at City, didn't help much then. Celtic and Rangers often win at each other's grounds with zero away fans. The best team on the day will win. Shame for the all ones that don't make it, but having 2,000 away fans instead of 5,000 isn't going to change the result.

There's some very bitter posters on here who would obviously turn down a perk from their works.

If you really want something you’ll find a way to get it most of the time, as selfish as that might make you, it’s life.

Looks like those who want to apply for the ballot will be able to do so on the away tickets page.

Most of those with 6k points were in exactly the same boat several years ago, but have finally reached enough points
My lads all had 6k points before they were 18. And we still got to plenty of away games in the meantime.

After sorting mates and family
Staff at the club shop and ticket office can just print however many tickets they want for friends/family to go away games. I believe they receive 2 free season tickets for the home games.

Sadly I was unable to go this the second it was postponed due to the FA Cup, as will not be possible for me to get there after work midweek.

I think the allocation is a disgrace and almost embarrassing from Blackburn really - it's effectively saying "We aren't very good are we, so let's stop as many of them from lording it over us as possible". It shows a lack of confidence in their team, and rightly so - as they are absolutely shite. I have no doubts whatsoever that the 2000 Clarets there will make more noise and have more to celebrate than whatever piffling figure the horse fiddlers can manage (judging by their shocking attendances - despite almost begging people to come with free tickets - it won't be many).

I look forward to the end of the season as we waltz into the land of rainbows and honeydrops and they sit in squalor ready for another season of nothing, with not a penny received for golden boy Brereton-Diaz as he goes to Spain for free.

Enjoy Accyblue, I'd love to say I pity you but I do not. I laugh. Heartily.
