Surely if you have any trouble turning on whatever you need to turn on somebody around will be able to help.

Not all phones have the bloody thing apparently. Never having needed it before I didn't even know it existed. I have the Google pay app to put the ticket into so that part is good but this facility makes it connect to scanners etcetera.

Drag your screen down from top to bottom and it should reveal icons such as bluetooth , torch , wifi etc . NFC should be one of them , just touch the icon to turn it on . hope it works

Thanks, no it's not there, something called hotspot, not sure if it's the same thing.

I was waiting for that as I typed it.

I assume if it's a straight ballot, then he wouldn't get a ticket for every game. Unless of course there is less demand than supply for away tickets there.

Just think it’s prominent member of a supporter branch. They’re allocated tickets ergo guaranteed ticket. Which makes a mockery of a ballot.

I'm not sure I agree that it should be done away with altogether. But it should be made more relevant as there are flaws in it, and this has made them more apparent.

As has been said, you could have given up a season ticket 2 or 3 years ago, after going home and away for 20 years, but still have kept the points and qualified for a ticket with over 22k points potentially. Is that person more "loyal" than the one who got that seat when they didn't renew but gets to as many games as possible?

I'm sure Marx, John Stuart Mill, Adam Smith, Plato, Kant, Descartes and Heidegger would have an interesting, but possibly inconclusive discussion, about that if they were all still alive.

Reward loyalty but there are plenty who buy and don’t go and get the points that’s where the flaw lies

You don’t get points for away games

When you give up a season card, for whatever reason, you know you are giving up the chance to go to games. If you buy a citizens membership rather than a season ticket, you know you are not getting a guarantee of a ticket -a seasoncard gives you guarantee of getting in to every game.

This year is exceptional we all get that, but for City to override the above and put every one in the same pot, whilst also saying some are more loyal than others, so can be in their own pot with a guaranteed ticket, is where its all gone wrong. It should have been season ticket holders first, no points, just all of us in a pot. I don't think many would have moaned at that. You had a choice to buy a season ticket, for any number of reasons you decided against it, that might sound callous given some of the reasons people don't buy, but others will have made the decision to buy one and maybe give up other things instead.

Any tickets not taken should then have gone to citizens members, just like it is for every other game that has ever been played at the stadium. Why for the carabao cup did you have to be on the carabao cup scheme?? We are all assuming that Champions League will be champions league scheme first, why does that have to be the case when they have just changed the rules for a home game?

Agreed, should have been season tickets only.
it was a league game, Seasoncard holders commit money for the whole season to attend a league game.
citizen card holders commit to the annual fee but might only go to games that are not in the league.

I thought you did to be honest I’ve never checked I go to between 5/10 a season depending if I can get a ticket but usually get them of other supporters or less favourable games
I’ve never checked my points to see where they come from I have in the region of 16k on all schemes
That would be a way of selling the hard to fill midweek games offer more points
Everyone wants a ticket for a big game ie Utd therefore no pints give 50 fo Exeter away on Weds
Who knows no system is perfect unfortunately and somebody will always be aggrieved
I will probably spend more than most of the so called loyal fans for the Champs Final as I’m not booking a flight etc until I have a ticket in hand
The people with lots can book early I expect by the time the tickets fall to 16k in the scheme flights will be £800

Was a bit of a faff and ended up taking “best available” but that’s a first world problem I know. Way up in 303 instead of anywhere near our season tickets but not complaining in the slightest.

I’ll update on the availability of chips through the day

There is defo a print at home option. I asked the supporter services on Twitter the other day. They said to contact them before the game if they are required.

Also, from the website on the Ballot frequently asked questions..

“ We appreciate digital tickets may not be for everyone so Print@Home will remain an option. We understand that not everyone may have access to a printer but we would ask that you seek assistance from a friend or family member, whilst ensuring you adhere to the guidelines, as we will not be issuing paper tickets or access cards for the 20/21 season “

That's interesting no physical season cards next season then?

That’s this season , it’s says 20/21 not 21/22

 

[paulchapo]

I think it's wrong. We have a lot of older fans who aren't great with technology and would struggle with this. Phones get lost, stolen, damaged too, just stick to the bloody card.

 

[mrtwiceaseason]

Noticed that but if it was in for that season surely in for this, this is going to cause so much fun going forward if the person who buys the ticket is the only one who can use it

 

[mrtwiceaseason]

Well this long term old fart got a ticket so no complaints from me. Seems a fair few of our 116 posse did as well, although had to move to 119 for the match.

Good to see you got one bud, did the loud one get one too? :+)

 

[Carlos- the- jackal]

You don’t get points for away games

Yes you do

 

[its a Barm]

Now got the email saying no, have to say I'm gutted to be missing this game and trophy lift.
