Still awaiting tickets from Aberdeen, that's been part of the delay.

Posted: **Wed Jun 27, 2018 5:17 pm**

Information posted yesterday correct then?

Posted: **Wed Jun 27, 2018 5:19 pm**

An allocation confirmation is a positive.

I'll not comment on the rest

When did the points system start out of curiosity? I’ve had seasons ticket for 23 years and have 7250.. so fingers crossed will be able to get one on day 2!

System introduced in 2004/05 so anything before then would get no points

Posted: **Wed Jun 27, 2018 5:23 pm**

Waaah, so no chance of getting them then with 6,300 points waaahhh

Seems a little extreme saying,

"Can I transfer my ticket to a friend if I am unable to attend?
No, any supporters found to be transferring tickets will have their ticket removed, will not be allowed to enter the stadium, and will receive a stadium ban from future matches at Turf Moor"

Posted: **Wed Jun 27, 2018 5:23 pm**

They've certainly set the bar high points wise.

Just logged on to my account to check my points and all my linked friends & family members have disappeared

Anybody else have this problem?

Yep. Is there an emoji for "tries to look surprised" ?

FAQ’S
What photo ID can I use?
The club will accept a passport or drivers license as proof of identity. These must be originals. Photocopies WILL NOT be accepted, nor will ID badges, print-outs, photos taken on mobile phones etc

Serious question - what if you have neither of these forms of ID?

Not me, but it does effect one member of our group, who would be ellegable for tickets on day 2.

How many points are you at CT? Any idea on the number of points those who have bought a ST every year will have?

ID Badges will not be accepted? sounds stupid and a load of hassle

That's a good question - no idea what the answer could be because I think they are the only acceptable options in terms of photo proof of ID.

Posted: **Wed Jun 27, 2018 5:30 pm**

Unfortunate but has been done the fairest way and to meet UEFA regulations. I have over 6000 and imagine it's unlikely I'll get tickets but such is life

It's 350 per year so if you've had one since it was introduced in 2004/05 you must have at least 5,250

I know i'm jumping way ahead however, I can't wait for the arrangements if we qualify and are away in the third round first leg. Imagine the club would speak to Sport Options for transport but they would have to announce preliminary ticket information before the Aberdeen second leg with less than a week to organise anything.

There was also a bonus year as well wasn't there? Was that 600?

I'd guess if you're much over 9,500 total, it's a blip but there were some seasons (probably about 8-10 seasons ago) when it was mayhem trying to get the points corrected, so manual adjustments had to be made which weren't always accurate.

Posted: **Wed Jun 27, 2018 5:33 pm**

Mate listen, I'll be at the away gate doing a meet n greet so I'll be on hand to guide anyone needing a ticket to the ticket office

Posted: **Wed Jun 27, 2018 5:33 pm**

Where do you find out how many points you have?

Posted: **Wed Jun 27, 2018 5:34 pm**

You could potentially have bought a season ticket for the past 60 years in a row and not have enough points to get a ticket, well done BFC on making sure those glory seekers have no chance.

Presumably, away games make up the shortfall?

ClaretTony wrote:UEFA regulations

Well UEFA regulations state:

When allocating match tickets to travel agents, the match organiser and the participating associations or clubs are responsible for ensuring that:
a) tickets are allocated only against production of documentary proof of identification of the spectators to whom tickets have been sold;

There's nothing about bans and the like.

Someone said away tickets are 10 points per game.

Reckon to have had a read, doesn’t mention anything about expat/exiled foundation members who have been paying the club vast sums of money every year?

The lads I travel with are all over 9,000 but we have all been regular away travellers for a lot of those years. Given the away games I've been to since the system came in, I would imagine I'm up in the top bracket. I've currently got 10,650.

I'm kind of on the fence on this because nothing will ever be "fair" to everyone but if you've been a ST holder and not gone to any away games, is it fair to decide to go to Aberdeen? Even since 2004/05 we've been pretty sh*t at times, so maybe those who've gone to see defeats against rubbish deserve the day out.

Posted: **Wed Jun 27, 2018 5:39 pm**

The way the points structure has been decided I think it's impossible for any one under 16 to get a ticket.

Spijed wrote:Someone said away tickets are 10 points per game.

So 215 away tickets bought and a season ticket every year for the past 13-14 years and you will have enough points?

It's your Clarets Number and, if you haven't used the online system previously, the password should be your postcode.

The system is completely flawed though because you could have started following Burnley 10 years ago and attended nearly every game yet still miss out on tickets. The points should either reset every 2 years or scrap the system entirely.

Screw them, they aren't real fans, they weren't born soon enough. BFC don't care how many games they've attended either, plastic fans those under 16's.

I'd imagine you are. That would suggest you've got c 5,000 non ST points in 14 seasons. I did forget that when you buy a ticket for a random friend, you get 10 for that too.

I've built up a list of around 40 over time, albeit many I no longer get tickets for. I only need a list of around five now though but others could have a lot more to add again.

I'm in agreement that it needs revision. That is despite it suiting me on this occasion.

As Tony says, postcode. Or for some accounts it was set as "turfmoor".

Unless we send some of our own staff up there who is going to be checking tickets? The local stewards and police won't give a monkeys who is in the away end I would have thought.

We will have staff up there in terms of the ticketing. This is a strict UEFA ruling that we have to adhere to.

Posted: **Wed Jun 27, 2018 5:56 pm**

I don't think the club understand that the young people that watch us are the future long term supporters of the club and should lower the under 16 points needed for this category of ticket. If they constantly can't get tickets for the bigger games they could well give up coming to watch Burnley for good.

I'm with KRBFC. The loyalty point system needs a complete overhaul.
