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.

Gingers Dad said:WNRH said: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?

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

Technically we're playing at a neutral ground.
You backed down quick...
I guess what we can take for this thread is; if you have a ST it's ok to walk over the CC holders with more points. If you had a cup ST then you don't deserve any kind of priority.
Surely people can see the double standards there?
Either loyalty points rule all (regardless of membership status) or ST/Cup Scheme etc get priority throughout the season/cup run.

WNRH said:Vonk's Konk said: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.
What about the commitment of going to all the games and buying tickets separately? Where's the reward for that commitment?

FFS...but that's not the point, seasoncard holders have always had priority over citycard holders and it's stayed that way for this game.
Cup scheme members have never had priority over anyone for away cup games, but the club change it for this one game.
Double standards? ;)
Bilboblue said: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!
shadygiz said: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.
