That would only work if tickets were pick up over there with proper ID checks otherwise it just moves those at the top further away.

I was wondering when you would spot the flaw in this post

Your point sits well with me! As last season I went to 4 euro aways. (5 if we can count Lyon which we managed a refund when they cancelled) but didn’t get a final ticket.. yet the guys who sits near me on my bus. Didn’t bother attending anything yet got a ticket!! Ended up at the game through a different source… but defo see your thinking here aww
Fact is @Gaztrueblue you take every away as well as Euros, can vouch for that. See you in Holland.

Yeah see you there! Maybe time for me to put the wine glass down and start looking forward to this trip. Going to be a good one for sure
Same, I did every trip last season apart from Dortmund as I had a positive covid test so couldn't fly. Was silver last year but managed to get on the Leipzig day trip plus did Lyon and Belgrade day trips, so a fair amount spent directly with Rangers. Didn't get a ticket by a few points yet my mate who did Braga (his only trip since the last Braga trip) got a ticket. In a position where I am now good for tickets going forward but would have saved a fortune in a final ticket if the TC was still in place!
Liverpool run a similar way - you had to do X Euro away games for a final ticket last season then a ballot between everyone who did all euro home games.

It could be sorted easily if they used the previous season in the count as well
For example, first group stage away, those who done at least 4 since Brondby last season get preference top down, and then once they’re sorted top down purely based on points
We’ll be sorted one way or other, no worries.
Mate at your current standing you stated above the minute it got to group games if they done those points you’d be fucked for a long time man. Preferred the TC
Want a laugh since mygers started I’ve now had 8 domestic away game.
Here they are -
Dundee x2
Dundee United
Livi x2
St Johnstone
Motherwell
St Mirren

Its not really the answer.
Make a travel club.
Travelling far or spending a lot of money to get to a game isnt just a european game thing, plenty of bears do it to get to our home games and claiming the money spent to go away somehow entitles us to more points whilst ignoring them.

Totally agree.
The argument for bringing back the travel club is now getting boring. It’s gone.
Mygers is here and we need to get used to it.
Do people honestly think if the travel club was reintroduced, everyone would get their old points back?
Of course they wouldn’t. Everyone would start from ground zero and would create an even bigger argument/thread.

I agree that the arguments are getting boring but to suggest that mygers is here in any sort of constant that we have to get used to is way off the mark. They change it at the drop of a hat when something happens that a lot of people don't like.
How long did fastest finger first last? Let's change it to 3 years like we always intended, then again maybe not. People are gaming the system to get the big games since our intention was that they only applied for the games that they wanted to go to so lets introduce requirements where you have to have applied for other games too. Let's award individual points for away games until people realise that only benefits those in gold as they get most tickets so it becomes the same points for all with a weird formula.
No the old travel club points won't appear back but it's not hard to apply the same criteria to the euro games people have attended and give points to those who got a knock back so everybody doesn't start from ground zero. We know that won't happen though unless enough people whine about it in the same way it happened with the 3 years and everything else that changed.
was the reference that was used at the meeting before we beat Braga 3-2 at Ibrox , Rangers reasoning was they had been more supportive to Rangers ( financially ) than the fan on 1500 that had been on 3-4 euro trips
What’s Eindhoven like as a city then? Got our digs booked there for 2 nights but was looking at staying in the Dam instead, but prices are alot higher.

I agree that would be fairer but You’d have to put other conditions to that also.
It’s been mentioned earlier in the thread that there are people with no season ticket but have managed to get a couple of away trips through mygers. A season ticket holder should get priority over non season ticket holder.

That would make sense if they hadn't introduced requirements for domestic aways.
They only wanted people to apply for games that they could attend but with the requirement to apply for Livi to get Hibs someone on maximum points who couldn't make Livi wouldn't get hibs unless they did what they weren't meant to and applied for Livi.
Most of the intentions that they had for mygers have gone out the window as time goes by

Precisely! Requirements were never meant to be a thing as the club, rather naively, thought people would only apply for games they actually intended to use, and that fans wouldn’t game them systemThat would make sense if they hadn't introduced requirements for domestic aways.

All of a sudden requirements appear meaning that people now have to apply for a % of aways to be eligible for category A ballots (unless of course it’s Parkhead and Tynecastle in May 2022 which were just a free for all, rewarding promoted silvers
)

Always go solo mate, meet up with mates and new faces over there, but saves me the hassle of “are these flights alright with you? cost okay? Transfer me this”
If my pals want to come they get the details and I’ll meet them there, plenty likeminded folk to drink with

I travel solo. Always meet fellow bears for a beer.
Ticket purchased for the game, posted out troops
Also only paid £5 for it because I had £34 credit balance outstanding!!
Wonder why these are being posted out instead of collection over there?
Was shocked when I seen that mate, special delivery just to make sure!
Sure that isn't the home game bud?
Edit - just realised the closing date was today for registration. I take it emails are out then?
Yes. The threshold is 1556 points initially. Tickets being posted out.
Deadline is tomorrow (Sunday) noon.
Then:

Cheers bud.
At the risk of sounding thick, does that pretty much confirm no local collection in Eindhoven?

@Greg Marshall why has the club decided to post! Now we have ppl buying tickets to pass on, collection over there is the only fair way to sort this. I’ve missed out by 19 points.. put me in the 3 rd bracket when I know I will be in the top 500 fans properly travelling here! Transparency seems to be an issue from tie to tie!
Yes mate, if it was collection over there you would’ve had a chance I say with the uncollected tickets at the collection point
Appreciate the reply mate. Local boozer it is then for me!
