First home cup game?

[PrestwichPeteMcfc]

Any ideas when the first cup game at home is likley to be?
That's when the points for the cup scheme go on.
We could do with them before Blackpool away...

europa league 19th or 26th august. city get a bye in the carling cup and enter in the 3rd round.

Well the 3rd round of the League Cup was played on the 21st September or thereabouts last season. That's where we'll be entering the cup this season. As for when we'll have our first home game, who on earth knows? It's really down to luck of the draw.

Edit: scratch this. Forgot about the Europa League. Thought you meant domestic cups.

So the 175points will be going on nice and early :-)

how do you know its 175 points

Got a letter from the club confirming registration and stating your 175 points will be allocated after your first purchase

 

[PrestwichPeteMcfc]

^ Yep :)
"You will be awarded 175 bonus loyalty points at the point of your first cup scheme purchase"
50 for each cup you choose to join, and 25 extra if you join all three.

do you not think that everyone in line for blackpool tickets will also be in the cup scheme?

therefore the status quo remains

Most people probably will be, but the points could help me just get one, rather than just miss out.

I would be very surprised if Blackpool don't put in extra temporary seating for visiting fans. It's their first season in the Premier League and I'd expect them to cash in on this opportunity.

i was thinking the same earlier today
if they could put in seating for an extra 3000 in a separate stand and then charge £50 a time that would give them an extra £15000 per home game which equates to an extra £3 million over the season

most london clubs do charge around 45/50

they be on a par with wigan/bolton prices i reckon
