Gary Stirling Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 1 point for home game, last 10 games, everyone starts at 0 2 points for away game, last 10 games, current points included 1 point for renewing membership 1 point if you've been a member for 3 or more campaigns Subject to change I think...

Doric Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Much better. Home games should be rewarded. No doubt there will be pages of moaning as per usual on here. Only took the 3rd post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grim Jim Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 I would not mind that. 2 pts away, 1pt home, but then I live not far from Hampden (though it is a Rodger Moore to get home from there on match days). Fairer? I'm open minded. I guess this would hurt "ex-pat" supporters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gala Tartan Army (Borders) Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Some pretty innovative ideas , we really like them . Supporters Club needs a good shake up . Like the home point ,was pretty pissed off soaking and freezing at Canada friendly for no reward . Never understood why only supporters who go to away games get a point . I have also started missing home games like Malta, if I am getting a point then I will probably go . The group discount is not before time ,think some of our lapsed members may rejoin but surely could get membership down to £30 if they leave out the rubbish they send us .

Grim Jim Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Jeez, still playing catch up here as usual. Thought Gary S, you were starting a topic with an innovative suggestion: I only got a D- in reading, sorry. So it's real. Gary TA hits nail in 3rd para. IMO, promotes home games... even "diddy" ones, so makes money and hopefully atmosphere. Give it a go... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norsefox Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 (edited) Great idea to add points to home games. Too often the smaller home games are ignored by 'supporters'. I've missed one or two home games in 15 years. Irks me no end that that isn't recognised. Edited August 15, 2017 by norsefox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dandydunn Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 This is about to turn as farcical as the thread on Facebook about it. People can't get away tickets. I cant get on the points ladder. I stay next door to Hampden, so me going deserves a point over someone who has hundreds of miles to travel. Absolute pish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reevesy Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Your "reward" for joining the SSC is guaranteed home tickets. Your "reward" for going to away games is getting away tickets. Everyone in the SSC has the option do do both of these things. What's the problem and why does it need changed? Sounds to me like some folk can only be arsed with the bigger away games and think they should have the same, or a better, chance than those who go all the time. How's that fair?

You only follow Scotland at home if you're getting rewarded with a point? Sounds like you're not really that interested in supporting the team, which makes it harder to understand why you'd care about points in the first place.

The wallopers who know fvck all about fitba' are getting their fix and the guys who can't afford the brutal prices are cast aside. All hail the Barca and Madrid picture takers.

teecee- Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Good changes, if me attending every home game improves my chances of an away ticket then well done. I am usually an exasperated ballotier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
