Chesterfield allocating us 1,042 tickets.

Guessing that’s the full amount, despite over 1,000+ empty seats in the home ends?

Already about half the allocation for Crewe away has gone and that’s before even get to the second tier release on sales.

Any Colchester fans on here reckon how many will travel up to Valley Parade on Saturday. We have sold just over 20,000 home tickets so far.

Now that you are serious promotion contenders, it would be good to see approaching 1000 of you?

It’s a fiver for them, too.

They haven’t sold one block yet, so definitely less than 600.

Ahh yeah, forgot about the reduced prices.

Would still be hugely surprised at anything more than 650-700.

Hoping they fetch less than 600 tbh, because I think we might need part of the away end for home sales this weekend.

Sold over 750 for Notts County away on Saturday. Should be around 1000 by Saturday, but abit of a shame as with most of our games at the moment it's another game that's been moved for Sky which will take a few off the following had it been 3pm.

Roughly 1100 sold for Crewe in 30 hours of being on sale. 550 remain.

Guessing we don't have many more fans with enough points to purchase yet given we average about 1k away. Be surprised if they don't sell out tomorrow or Thursday. Absolutely no chance they make general sale.

Still can't believe Crewe have restricted us this time. Recipe for disaster.

Not surprisingly we've sold out our poxy allocation for Crewe. Didn't reach season ticket holders, tickets were snapped up by regular away fans only (which is fair). Crewe trying to be shithouses on a wind up. Next time we play, no doubt it will be reciprocated.

To be fair to have had the number of points required to get one (which cards on the table I was one of them) you’d have to have got a season ticket also for the last two years with how the points work. To me I do think the away loyalty scheme is one of the better things we’ve done, not least eliminating people queuing overnight for Exeter away a few years ago for example. See what we get for Walsall you’d think in the next day or so as they should be on sale Monday.

Absolutely. I had no chance of getting one, so no complaints from me re the points system. Those who go more often absolutely deserve priority. I haven't been to Crewe for years, they never get to general sale.

Would you mind posting how this away ticket scheme works at Vale?

I understand we are about to launch some sort of membership scheme and it would be useful to have some info on how other clubs work

This shows how you accumulate points, then as an example, for the Crewe game the club announced when tickets were to become available for fans based on how many points they have.

Loyalty for hospitality membership really isn't the one but decent system other than that.

There's times where I wish we had a loyalty system in place.
