8,000 25th Cup Scheme
7,000 26th Cup Scheme
6,000 27th Cup Scheme
5,000 28th Cup Scheme
3,500 30th Cup Scheme
So a 2 day wait for people on 3,500
But for the final they decided on:
8,000 24th Cup Scheme
7,000 25th Cup Scheme
6,000 26th Cup Scheme
5,000 27th Cup Scheme
4,000 29th Cup Scheme
2,500 30th Cup Scheme
So a 3 day wait for 3,500 as this time its down to 2,500 and theres a randomly added 4,000 to the list.
As you have absolutely no idea of what goes into planning the ticket strategy , the numbers, the members that do or don't qualify I'd say you were the joke.
Everything is planned and worked on to get the tickets out . it can't be all on one day and it can't be right up to the final.
How can they possibly plan for the tickets returned from Wigan? They can't so they have to tweak things.
As always the moaners know fuck all, and the moaners of the loyalty point system won't be taking any of the Swansea tickets that remain unsold, no the moaners will wait till next season and plead how wrong we were to cut our allocation next time round.
There are even a few thousand unsold for west brom At HOME next week. Lost the league have we!!
Obviously i do have an idea what goes into deciding ticket criteria but to make it so different for the semi final and the final is like saying to the people who attended the semi final "hang on we are going to give the people with more points an extra bit of time before we make you eligible to buy yours this time" and both of the selling criteria i posted were the original selling criteria no updated criteria and also not based on the amount of tickets we got and i am in no way trying to say that they need to plan for unsold Wigan tickets! It wasn't a moan and i already have my final ticket i just think its a bit of a joke that they extended peoples chances of buying for the final when obviously they didn't go to the semi final. Also i have a Swansea ticket and a Reading ticket and my season card that i use to attend every home game so if that was a dig at me then save it.
Please see my earlier posts on this allocation / criteria feed. The difference is that we were allocated 32k for the semi, so we were 6k down on the final, the club knows where they need to insert breaks to satisfy the number of fans in that band of criteria.
