Yeah you’ll find that tickets often sell out before that Silver card comes into play. |  | | |

Most matches won't get past Season Ticket to be fair, except the further away ones with large allocations. |  |

I emailed the club several weeks ago about Silver Cards. My suggestion was that the Silver Card holder could select a small number of matches (say 3 or 4 per season) where they get the same priority as a Gold Card Holder. For us fans who live too far from PR to have a season ticket, we want to be able to get decent priority for the games on our doorstep. Not much point in a Silver Card if you can't get tickets for the games you can actually get to.
I didn't get a reply! [Post edited 18 Jul 2022 14:31]

Not fair on gold card holders.
And if all the silver members pick the same game, the main attraction of a GC is then removed.
No chance. |  |

Don’t think they would - would be a good idea if Silver card holders could pick 1or 2 games near them as a higher priority than normal. |  |

And for the majority of silver cards who live in East Anglia?
They are likely to pick the same ones and limit the GC Holders.
It only works for ITFC fans who live a distance away - but that then is again depriving the GC holders... GC holders by definition tend to be the most likely to want to go to away games. | |

I doubt very much that the majority of Silver Card holders live in E Anglia. if you live in E Anglia, you'd get a ST.
Silver Cards appeal to people who live too far from PR to have a ST. There should be a number (arguably, could be somewhere in the 1-4 region) of games that the silver card holder can select, that give the same priority as the Gold Card. Otherwise no point in having a Silver Card, missing out every time on the games near to you or that you can get to. | |

Anyone who was looking for a ticket for this - it looks like they either got a couple more, or some returns, as its no longer showing as sold out online. Typically, I now can't go, having organised something else. | |

I can see where you’re coming from as I’m in the same boat living further afield. It’s difficult though to reward everyone fairly, so I can see why the club basically base priority on who goes to the most games. Even though as we all know, going to more games doesn’t necessarily make you more of a fan than someone else.
My idea would be to introduce another tier of membership, tied in with iFollow:
£99 a year
iFollow audio annual pass included
x3 priority away sales windows (Same priority as gold card) with a limited number of ‘members able to select each game (Maybe 100 first come first served)
x1 Home ticket included for free for hem of choice
I’d happily pay that, and I’m sure many others would too. Might make it tricky for games like Charlton etc which will undoubtedly barely make season ticket release this year though. |  | | |

But then you’re devaluing the GC…. The only (or certainly main) reason people buy GCs is for ticket priority. | |

I'm hoping to get to a couple of northern away games this year particularly the Sheff Wed match. Any idea how hard this fixture is to get tickets for based on previous years? I'm assuming a bit easier given stadium size and distance. |  |

Sheffield Wed - we don't normally sell it out, as it is a big away end. But, our away support is growing at least in line with home gates, so it may well not go general sale. Especially as Sheffield is a brilliant away day / weekend. | | | |
