Wanderers are considering the introduction of a priority scheme for away tickets from the start of the 2025/26 season.

The Supporters’ Trust have launched a survey to collect feedback from supporters, which will be fed back to the club to inform their decision.

A priority points reward scheme was put forward as a possible solution but will not be implemented until there has been consultation with the wider fanbase.

I would say people who regularly go to away games should get priority. 

I won't be applying though, my last away game was Bury away 8 years ago when Zach Clough scored both goals in a 2-0 win. I bought a ticket then got to the ground only to find out they had sold me a ticket for a seat that didn't exist

Did they find you a seat or did you have to huddle up to someone and share a seat?

They offered me a seat in another stand which was full of home fans so i turned that down! No one was sat down anyway so i just kind of hung around near the terrace entrance steps and watched the game from there

It’s no wonder they went bust with the way they treat customers

The goals - two dodgy penalties as well!
