Re: ARTICLE: Clubs should hang their heads in shame over derby tickets

This is all a result of Blackburn giving a us a shocking allocation of tickets. There was never going to be a 'fair' way of doing this and loyal, diehard fans were always going to miss out.

Re: Chris Wood

Chris Wood had a good scoring return and kept us in the Prem for a number of seasons. The problem our team had for a long time was our strikers had to create their own chances because with exception of McNeil we had zero creativity in the side. The midfield was absolute tosh.

Re: Loyalty Points - something needs to change.

The club should scrap loyalty points and set up away membership instead. Anybody who purchases a years membership is entitled to a ticket- first come first served.

Leeds and Derby do it this way, to name a few.
