@MisterCommodity I don’t give a fuck about how valuable a “franchise” is.

[Mateusz @mathautomatic]

@israel_ajoje Interesting. Where is your practice?

[Mateusz @mathautomatic]

@BamfordHat @BinksLeeds Because everyone has different circumstances.The current systems provides all circumstances with a chance to get a ticket. Some in the part of the ground / with people they want to sit with on a FCFS basis, others in the ballot if they can't do that, others on the ticket exchange

[Mateusz @mathautomatic]

@twittyname @rod70703839 @BinksLeeds Agree to disagree :) Enjoy the rest of your weekend MOT

[Mateusz @mathautomatic]

@BamfordHat @BinksLeeds See, the false equivalence argument is daft isn’t it? As you say, you make it work. We all do what we can, sometimes we’re lucky, sometimes we’re not. But if you care who you sit with and where, we have the opportunity to do that. 100% ballot takes that away.

[Mateusz @mathautomatic]

@BamfordHat @BinksLeeds If they’re the only people you know, then that’s a tough situation. Sorry to hear that. I live 100 miles away from Elland Road, should I demand they play some home games in my neck of the woods to make it easier for me?

[Mateusz @mathautomatic]

@BamfordHat @BinksLeeds We can all point to extreme examples to prove a point, but it’s not the reality in the vast majority of cases. Ask a friend or family to log in for you. If you really can be arsed it isn’t that difficult.

[Mateusz @mathautomatic]

@twittyname @rod70703839 @BinksLeeds By that same logic why not make every ticket free and do away with season tickets?

See how this doesn’t work?

[Mateusz @mathautomatic]

@twittyname @rod70703839 @BinksLeeds False equivalence. The current system doesn’t exclude anyone or price them out, as I explained above. There are means of applying even if you’re working. It just takes organisation and effort. If you can’t be arsed to do that then you deserve less chance of a ticket.

[Mateusz @mathautomatic]

@twittyname @rod70703839 @BinksLeeds Yes, giving those who put the effort in because they have a higher motivation to be in the ground a better chance of having a ticket. What’s wrong with that?

[Mateusz @mathautomatic]

@twittyname @rod70703839 @BinksLeeds You don’t need to do any of that ‘just to have a chance of a ticket’. There is already a ballot stage in the process.

[Mateusz @mathautomatic]

@twittyname @rod70703839 @BinksLeeds What’s hard?

[Mateusz @mathautomatic]

@TWhitleyBay1 Can’t really work out what the objection is?

[Mateusz @mathautomatic]

@LiamRumsey64 @bethgabriel_ @CallyD86 @LUFC I don’t think this even achieves that aim. An international fan isn’t going to wait until the ballot before booking flights.

[Mateusz @mathautomatic]

@twittyname @rod70703839 @BinksLeeds That assumes it’s the case for every match, which is unlikely given how shift patterns work. When that is the case, F&F they go to the match with can log on for them, or go in the ballot. If they go on their own there are always single tickets on the exchange.

[Mateusz @mathautomatic]

@LiamRumsey64 @bethgabriel_ @CallyD86 @LUFC This is purely to sell more memberships. Simple as that.

[Mateusz @mathautomatic]

@LiamRumsey64 @bethgabriel_ @CallyD86 @LUFC The only people this will reward are those who were half arsed about it in the first place. Is that who we want in the ground?

[Mateusz @mathautomatic]

@LiamRumsey64 @bethgabriel_ @CallyD86 @LUFC Agreed. If you can be bothered to get organised you can get tickets. This will split families and groups who want to sit together, as people will enter as small a group as possible to improve the chances of getting any tickets.
