GrumpyBlue86 said:Ok I can understand your argument on that one, and had I been to every cup game but not joined the scheme I'd be pissed off as well. On the other side of the coin I am sure there are City card holders who have been to every home cup game but they never have stood a cat in hells chance of getting a ticket to either game. That in essence is the same thing, but nobody is complaining about that.MonsallBlue said:I have no problem with that. My main problem is the fact I have been to all cup games in all comps and I am being discriminated against because I paid by the match. My money was still paid at the same time they CDS people got charged. Or within days anyway.
But, like has been said they cant please everyone

It also spells the end to any chaep tickets, it also gives us the same scheme in effect as at United. Its not enforced by the club, but imo a far more sly back handed way. If you dont agree they dont go to a semi or a final, because as i expect every one will sign up next year. At the end of the day i dont blame fans for being uninterested in the Uefa cup, or games against Notts county. All it means next year is full price tickets for those games. I just worry more that no one can see this for what it is.
Nobody is being forced to sign up to the cup scheme, but those that do will get first dibs on semi final and final tickets. I really can't for the life of me understand what the bloody hell everybody's problem is with that?

No that clearly isn the polar opposite of what im saying, I agree to reward people who attend whole hartedly. You know what i could explain this point until the end of time, some people cant see the wood for the trees.
Well in 2-3 years time when all isnt what you thought it would be, then people will be able to grasp the simple notion of the argument against.

I see what you mean sniff, the fact everyone is going to sign up for the CDS over next year or 2 to ensure tickets to the big games, the club can then debit everyones accounts for a £20 per person ticket instead of having to charge £5 , £10 to get them in.....
Guaranteed 30,000 at least each match
I guess thats sort of what you are getting at.....
What that ticket prices are going to go up? That unfortunately is what is going to happen anyway, and I don't like that any more than you do. All season people have been complaining about shite attendances in the cup competitions, then as soon as the people who turned up get rewarded everybody starts saying well people shouldn't have to turn up if they don't want to.sniff said:GrumpyBlue86 said:So what you are saying is that people who go to all the crap games at the beginning of competitions shouldn't be rewarded with priority access to the showpiece events at the end?

It could be worse, we could all be forced into it and then lobbed in a ballot for the big games.sniff said:No that clearly isn the polar opposite of what im saying, I agree to reward people who attend whole hartedly.
