direct cup and you get first chance of tickets !!!

[WNRH]

What's the difference between me (who's been to every cup game) and you, who is on the cup scheme?

Oh yeah, you've just paid at a different time than me...

and I agree, you have been proper smug.

Liam, you are like a howling hyena, you lurk around and try and pick on something I say as soon as anyone else does. Grow up.

The difference is that someone on the cup scheme guaranteed their money to City and as City are a business, they got rewarded.

Anyway - I am off down the pub, enjoy your group bitching

Give Liam a proper answer.

Exactly.... i think we all know the real point is this was made up after the initial sign up period.

that was confirmed as such by the ticket office, so any smug hmmmm you should of signed up. is pathetic as they didnt know either.

If it ends up that cup away's are included, then whats the attraction for people to renew a sc ?

you can get in every home game without a SC, so if they then decide you need to be in the cup scheme. Well whats the point, unless you have high points a sc will only get you into the home games (and wigan away)

Because you need a ST and a Cup Scheme member to qualify, not just a Cup Scheme membership.

The attraction is to watch City, not pick and choose the big games... showing you intend to do that upfront has been rewarded as usual. The communication and the plan of this may have been late and slapped a few unsuspecting people, but i think the foundation and objective behind it are sound.

Exactly what I have been saying Bill.

It's nothing short of disgraceful.

How do warrant it as anything like 'disgraceful'? There's an argument against this i can understand, but there's an argument for it which is also pretty robust.

In this particular case, it's really quite irrelevant. If you've got any kind of history following CIty, our ST numbers against our allocation means a ticket should be guaranteed.

Anyone sweating (let's not forget we've got criteria which goes though all ST holders on the OS) can't have been to too many matches.

Check my other posts GStar, there has been a problem in the past with points being added when I received tickets thru supporters club, despite my season ticket being registered with City thru the SC's.

The reason I say it is disgraceful is because they have 'changed the rules' at the last minute!

Had they given everyone the option of joining the cup scheme at the start of the season, with the knowledge those in it would get tickets first, and I never got one because I wasn't in it, I wouldn't moan!

 

[SWP's back]

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?

Whats the difference between me and you then? We have both paid the same amount of money to watch the home cup games, we have both attended all the home cup games, we have both got tickets for the home cup games around the same time.

So why do you deserve to get the tickets 7-8 days before i can?

Because you were able to give your debit/credit card details at the start of the season?

Do me a fucking favour mate.

I think it has been covered a couple of hundred times over the last 34 pages.

 

[Gingers Dad]

and then they take your mooney whether your able to attend or not.

Hit the nail on the head then, it is all about money.

So someone who can afford to go on this cup direct scheme and not bother going to the games gets a ticket over someone who has actually paid for and attended all cup games.

Can't you see how flawed this is?

But why i am suprised? We are customers now and what business gives a fuck about customers?

Do you really think people have joined the cup scheme and not attended when they could?

 

[Stirling1978]

Bollocks is it a commitment, a commitment is actually attending all the cup games, not giving your card details at the start of the season.

But by giving your card details you are commiting to go to all the cup games before draws to see who we'll play have even taken place.

chris, i think the point he was making is not the queue jumping on this occassion...his comment was in regards to bill saying the club should have let everyone know at the beginning of the season so people could make the decision then, rather than using a semi-fianl to force the issue and cream the fallout from it next season.

It probably has but i am still awaiting an answer that isn't bullshit from smug people who will benefit from this.

The real answer is that there is no difference yet you and the others cannot bring yourself to say that as you are sorted.<br /><br />-- Fri Mar 18, 2011 8:33 pm --<br /><br />

[sniff]

Just checked what the scum are doing. Seasoncard and memebrs apply and go into a ballot......can you imagine it on here if City did that!!!!! A first year card holder never been to a cup game getting a ticket, while someone like DeNiro didn't. Now that is a shite system, and something to maon about

Yeah and Season ticket holders in the cup scheme get tickets without the ballot.

your not able to get ticketsfor games like this at OT unless your in the cup scheme

starting to see a pattern ??

keep saying that what their doing is right, thats where its going if you do.

 

[Freestyler]

can i ask, who infact has decided on all this, who's decision was it with the criteria?
