    - No can't be. They had to change the wording on the website this morning to clarify ... (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, May 19, 17:23:06
      - VMT maybe the best they could have done to rectify the situation (NCFC) - SCC 28, May 19, 17:24:39
        
        No it's not. The best would have been to sell to anyone with say 250 points (NCFC) - Jim, May 19, 17:45:18
        
        fair point the best i could have expected then (NCFC) - SCC 28, May 19, 17:48:24
        
        I don't entirely agree (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, May 19, 17:48:21
        
        The risk here is that Boro have sold out and lots of their fans missed out (NCFC) - Jim, May 19, 18:12:00
        
        Surely they'll be on the look out for Middlesbrough addresses? (n/m) (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, May 19, 18:19:50
- that could piss off those that've bought this years' membership in the last week or 2 (n/m) (NCFC) - Ralf Scrampton, May 19, 17:07:56
  - It's the away season ticket holders and shareholder members that are in the worst position (n/m) (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, May 19, 17:23:59
    - they are now in the same position as new priority members with no extra expense (NCFC) - Ralf Scrampton, May 19, 17:30:43
      - Yes true - it is set to be the biggest bun fight yet though (n/m) (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, May 19, 17:33:21

        doesn't resonate with how the club is operated these days though (NCFC) - Tombs, May 19, 17:55:30
        
        I suppose the group that I have sympathy for there is parents with kids that arent members (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, May 19, 17:45:19
    - yep and they should have been 2nd in the queue ahead of members (n/m) (NCFC) - Jumbo1, May 19, 17:26:13
      - hopefully everyone will get a ticket though and the shameless money grubbing will all fade (NCFC) - Tombs, May 19, 17:28:27
