Just to add.

Mansour spent/lost over £100mill last year on City. He has a every right to claw that money back and to eventualy make a profit. He is not a charity.

United fans do not have a choice. They have to join the cup scheme.

City fans do have a choice. They can either join the cup scheme or not. If they don't they will still get a ticket, but will not have first jibs on the tickets or the seats they prefer.

Under those the circumstances, I think Mansour has every right to do what he wants.

I wouldn't dispute that had they made it clear at the start of the season, but they didn't, they have moved the goalposts and it is quite clearly wrong.

what's the difference between someone who's been in cup scheme and attended every game, and someone like me who's also been to every game, but not in the cup scheme?

You haven't answered this one yet:

What is the difference between a SC and a CityCard holder that has attended every game.

Why should a CityCard holder with 5,000 points have no priority over you?

It is the same thing.

What about me then SWP's back? I have been to every FA Cup game this season and every home europa league game, i think it is right that those who put in the time and effort in early rounds get a chance to go to the later rounds but why only give a small percentage that oppourtunity? It's a joke but i am not suprised, once again the club can go fuck themselves.

Then I'd say you should have joined the scheme at the start. Surely there has to be a "reward" for giving assurances that we would buy every ticket regardless of shifts etc.

No system can be perfect can it?

As I say, no one is going to change anyone elses mind and the thread is now going round in circles.

It's been fun.

I'm sorry but you are coming across as a smug bastard as you have been pushed to the front of the que.

and that post absolutley stinks, i've had to cancel meetings, have days off and work my bollocks off to get to cup games this season, every single cup game, so my loyalty to the club by turning up to every cup game is not as loyal as those who can sit back, give their credit card details and just turn up with ease?
 
Goatfood you say you would rrather reward people who have turned up to a half empty stadium, to what, the season ticket holders who have been at come since it opened? Really? The cup scheme this year has already rewarded people with 700 points this year( in both cups) which is 5 years worth of season cards, and now they will be rewarded with a que jump to the semi?!!! Do me a favour mate!!!
 
I don't mind cup scheme getting tickets but what I don't agree with is the fact that other season ticket holders who have been to every fa, league and Europa cup home game should also have been included to be fair. They have still shown same loyalty during cup

I am not being smug at all but the indignation coming from those that haven't benefitted is as myopic as any smug-ness coming from me.

I also had to work my arse off. Why didn't you join the scheme? Can you not see why City have a scheme? Can you not think that those on it should be rewarded?

Will you go on it next season?

The difference being. Those that joined the cup scheme at the start of the season committed their money to the club in advance. That money was taken out by direct debit and has probably made the club more money in interest. In essence the club is rewarding those fans for that and for turning up to every cup game and spending even more money on food and drink, etc.

As I've stated. Go to the ticket office and make that point. They have your attendence and points on the system.

whos stupid enough to buy single match tickets at a time, and not get a seasoncard instead eh?

about treble what you've paid plus.

has that person gone to every home game, how many years has the 5,000 took to build?

they could go to 35-40 games a season in all comps.

i've still been more.

Again, what about the Citycard holder with 4k points that's been to every cup game this year... are City shithouses for putting ST holders before him?

Why only give que jump passes to a select few then? Why not say ALL who went to ALL FA Cup games gets the que jump pass? Why only give it to those can can be on this cup scheme?

Do you think it is fair that those who have been to every cup game this season aren't getting the oppourtunity to those who have also been to every cup game this season but they signed up to get automatic tickets?

They should either reward everyone who went to all the cup games or no one at all.

agree totally that that our owners have the right to recoup some of their money but this manouvre is coming far too late in the day. i would be happy with it if it was to start next season, with a level playing field.
