I live in west yorkshire and dont get to as many home games as i used to, more so now i have a young family. I still get to a few away games like huddersfield, leeds, rotherham this season. But most of the time i rely on dr dubs radio (star!), even for the play-offs when i had to look after my son until my wife finished work.
When i told my wife about the ticket situation she told me i should buy a membership just for this game. I dont like being held to ransom when money is already tight especially when we are moving house on 5th june with all fees from that.
So to find out that i cannot get a ticket but a friend of a season ticket holder will get a chance and mcnally says this is fair even though that 'friend' may never have gone to a game in their life is unreal. I have no problem with season ticket holders and members getting first dibs and ppl taking a membership out just for two weeks for these tickets (pouring more money into the club) getting ahead but then to give them a chance for a second ticket for a friend who may not even support or go to norwich games home or away and wont even sit with their 'friend' ahead of away fans shows the comtempt the club have for ppl who dont live in norwich or around the area.
Maybe an overreaction but i feel really let down by the club and they should change the wording from 'general public' to 'scum'. thats how i feel im being treated because i cant get to as many games or spend as much on norwich as i used to - however this is probably mcnallys ploy of getting more new fans interested by getting a ticket for this game. I would have no problem if i had as much chance of getting in line for a ticket as season ticket/members getting a second ticket at 6pm weds and it becoming a first come first served.
May never get to wembley again and even if we do i probably still wouldnt be able to go unless the club changes. (Bit hypocritical as was hoping to take my dad even though he doesnt support norwich but has never been to wembley - but i could also do with another driver for the day).
