Forgive my stupidity in enquiring but......
Why do you have insufficient (loyalty) points to prevent you sourcing a ticket?
Why do feel that 'a few pints' could / would (should) facilitate your attendance at said specific fixture?
Why should someone with fewer (loyalty) points than the requisite amount (whatever that figure proves to be) but with a greater amount to yourself be prevented from being present to your benefit?
Please feel free to respond within the context of your previous observations with regard to the paucity of attendees at Bramall Lane
Thanks awfully
