Why Is There a Transition to Multi-Year Loyalty (MYL) for All Home Games and Premier League Away Games but Not for Cup Away Games?
Updated
Historically only one season of match credits has been used to determine a supporter’s eligibility to buy or register for tickets for home fixtures and Premier League away fixtures. Therefore, there will be a transition to MYL to try and avoid supporters who have more recently earned match credits from being negatively impacted by the change.
For cup away fixtures, typically multiple seasons are already needed to calculate eligibility for most fixtures due to the size of the allocations.
Therefore, we will not transition cup away fixtures to this system and any match credits earned for cup away fixtures in the relevant competition will be used straight away to determine eligibility for season 2026/27.
