Away Match Registration

Away Match Registration

Re bournemouth.....depends how awkward they're feeling,they're notorious for making life difficult for fans of other clubs.
Last season allowed for 800 bees fans but nearly 2000 turned up and all got in.
More likely to give us about 1000 tickets if we're already up and about 1200 if we're in play-offs(they hate successful teams).




Good job i got a membership at AFCB when the fixtures came out;) :sorted:

According to their Rivals site gossip they are going Yeovil 2,300 tickets so perhaps we will get the same?

This away ticket reservation thing is a farce though. I went all the games at the start of the season but they don't count anymore? Is there some kind of points system?
 

Away Match Registration

Who says they don't count any more, though? When I enquired about my place in the Charlton queue, it was apparent that the early games did count as my absence in SE Asia for seven weeks hadn't harmed my away form.

Show off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm going to South Carolina for a week later this month (missing Donny home and MK Donny away) but can't compare to seven weeks, eh!!!!

So as I didn't get a stub at Bristol, I'm not registered? What does my Southend stub actually do?

BIAS have asked Peter G to put out a statement reminding everyone of the away registration rules when they next use it. Hopefully that will clear up some of this confusion.

The club said that the registration system started afresh from Oldham away, so no games before that counted :shrug:

How ****ing hard is it to take down a season ticket number with each away ticket brought. This would stop all confusion.

****ing jokers.

Surely your on the register if you have bought away (since Huddersfield) tickets in the club shop. I bought my Huddersfield, Oldham and Stocky tickets in the shop and i am registered for away games. Is this not the case :confused:

Well, that doesn't tally with my experience, but maybe I got lucky?

OK, forgive me if I don't trawl through previous posts on this for the answers but:-

If I buy my tickets for away matches at the turnstile on the day then do these still count in terms of away registration? Attending these games is often a late decision for various reasons and there is no time to get to BFC to buy tickets in advance.

A similar situation applies to my son who is currently living in Nottingham. He has also travelled to several away games from there and has kept the ticket stubs.

Where is this detailed on the OS?

My understanding is that only pre-sold tickets count on the registration scheme (ie bought direct from BFC not the away club).
The "scheme" (if you can call it that) falls down badly as only around 50% of clubs have this season sent tickets in advance to BFC, so some people may have gone to 4 or 5 away games and been unlucky that those teams didnt send advanced tickets. Been to several myself which havent had advanced ticket option via GP.
 

Away Match Registration

The most ridiculous aspect of the away ticket scheme is that the club are now saying that tickets for Charlton count towards the two games you need to qualify.

I thought the whole point of having such a scheme was to differentiate between fans who travel away regularly and those who don't. Seeing as every man and his dog who has ever seen a Brentford game home or away was at Charlton the scheme has now fallen into disrepute.

If BU or BIAS are not prepared to hand out registration forms at away matches we might as well scrap it because as mentioned above most regular away travellers will not bother to buy tickets in advance from Brentford if there is no need to do so.

Perhaps when AFC B or Colchester comes around they need to up the level required to purchase tickets. Maybe three or four games. That will sort it out.

I agree Mark but they shouldnt make the rules up as they go along...

I'm sorry but 150ish Bees fans stood in -5 artic conditions at Donny and it means nothing to the club. Some lardy backsides made it to Southend and maybe Gillingham and then possibly expect tickets for high profile games. Do me a favour.lol

To be fair, Doncaster refused to give advance purchase tickets for the terrace and Donny did not give out stubs at the turnstiles. How are Brentford supposed to know whether or not you made the journey?

It's not a case that BIAS and BU can't be bothered to hand out vouchers - when this system was tried early in the season it failed miserably, hence the fact that it was changed. It was made clear in the program and on the OS that people would have to buy tickets through the Club to be registered for that game. If they can't be bothered then that's their fault IMO.

Even 2,300 may not be enough if there's anything still at stake.

It's not a case of "can't be bothered". Donny and Brizzle didn't give us any official tickets - hence ticket stubs should be accepted as evidence of attendance.

It was stated clearly when the scheme was launched that games for which tickets were not available in advance would not be included in the away registration scheme :shrug:

Don't you bang your head at me when you obviously 'couldn't be bothered' to read the rules properly :fishing: :D
