Great points but unfortunately as we all know it was will fall on deaf ears!
I agree with this, sitting on 1540 ish now and still not had an away ticket, applied for all bar one plus missed the chance for St. Johnstone due to the window not being open long enough for me to notice the email or thread on here.
Breaking my self-imposed sabbatical.
Although I agree the system is flawed - but in what way is the flawed system directly affecting you?
Only the 2 European away trips still to be added for me.
Cheers I've not had the home euros either guess I will wait and check when the emails come out they might still be updating
That's exactly what should happen, they could have easily charged £20 extra for people wanting to join the TC, but you can only join it if your a MyGers member, could have made an extra couple of hundred thousand easily and we would've paid it.
Home points show on original purchase but nothing showing for Brondby/Lyon away
It's affecting me because I was almost guaranteed a ticket for most euro away games because I accumulated the points by going to dross like Macedonia and Luxembourg etc.
Yeah exactly - this is where the fundamental flaw is. The enhanced points for Euro aways basically creates a system where one theoretical supporter goes to 2 Euro away games but doesn’t bother with any lower-demand Ibrox games while another supporter goes to every single game at Ibrox in a season (including 2 friendlies and 3 cup games against lower division teams) yet the guy who went to the 5 lower-demand games is deemed to be 5 points less ‘loyal’ than the guy who chose to go a couple of Euro trips and not bother with any Ibrox games that weren’t league/Europa?
Without being disrespectful the places you choose to go to in European games is irrelevant - how you acquire your tickets for both domestic and European games is most certainly relevant- a boy I'm friendly with has attended many Euro aways over the years and has been in the home end at Euro games probably more often than in the official away areas due to the way he sourced the tickets- unfortunately he very seldom used his season ticket at Ibrox as he prefers the AWAY experience for both domestic and European games - He is now languishing in bronze tier because of his previous choices and wants the travel club reinstated as he is angry at not being able to get any official Euro away tickets from the club anymore and blames the introduction of MyGers members to apply for and purchase Euro tickets ahead of him
There still needs to be a middeground somewhere regardless
Sorry for him a little but he funds other teams to the cost of the team he supports. Unfortunately the away games are more atmospheric but if we all did that Rangers would be paupers. Support begins at Ibrox.
They should still be worth a lot more than 5 points
Why? Put forward a concrete argument as to why purchasing one away ticket through our ticket office should be worth more than all others - especially where Rangers receive little or none of the ticket money from away tickets sold
I think you're missing the point, I accumulated the points by attending the matches regardless of where they were, why should I be content with home end tickets when I had high travel club points?
No the point is where you sourced all your tickets to accumulate your total MyGers points - if over the years you had signed up to and bought every Domestic ticket from Rangers, you would be comfortable in low gold tier - and if you were a member of the travel club previous purchases would give you historical points that would be added to the domestic total and escalate you up to middle or top of gold tier.
Just in time for Ross County then. So silvers will get tickets out the gold pool
Points will be completed this week and thresholds updated after. Won’t be a ballot anytime soon.Just in time for Ross County then. So silvers will get tickets out the gold pool
There’ll be a week or two of people going nuts and the club won’t even be forthcoming with an apology. Rinse and repeat every time there’s a threshold update
The SLO will get bombarded again, through no fault of his own
It did, the club got made aware, they pretended it wasn’t a mistake and fronted it out
You honestly got trust that thresholds will ge updated for Ross County?
Still baffled how they don't update the points threshold before the update.Just in time for Ross County then. So silvers will get tickets out the gold pool

Personally I can’t see an issue with this, as it just allows those silvers who were previously close to the gold threshold to get some form of benefit from being very high silver members.
Thresholds will need to go up by the minimum points that would’ve been accrued from all home games + hampden
They can’t update thresholds until points have been updated - but no ballots should be done till it’s been updated.
At the detriment of the benefit of being a gold member, only for the club to rectify it after a week when they get round to the manual process?
But they are not gold. And you are not allowed to move between tiers until thresholds have been updated.

Tiers will be updated again but they’ve ballsed it up again because the system is manual
Think it’s 1531 the now for gold. 9 home matches and 1 semi final is 46 points - which I’d assume will be around the next cut-off. So around 1575-1580 I’d guess will be gold.
Lyon away game not been added for me yet.
So I'm a glory hunter because I'm 50 points under gold? Rangers TV yearly sub and the Edmiston house package would have me in gold so what's your point? I'm not willing to throw money at something that's no use to me.
