Anyone on the cup scheme will get a ticket for the semi and final if we get there,really do feel sorry for the lads and girls on 8000 plus not on the cup scheme,it's not on.
why not?

i have sympathy for those who have gone to all the cup games and not on the cup scheme, and city must know who they are from their purchase history, but none for those who haven't been to a cup game

from their own making they have chosen not to be too bothered so why be too bothered now?

So you are on the cup scheme lol?

Face facts the cup scheme is a way to force blues to buy tickets for matches they don't want/can commit to. We took the piss out of United fans being made to buy tickets for shit games, now look at us, modern football I'm afraid.

For those saying it's 'fair' don't chat shit, because it isn't. It's elitist and completely panders to the JCL'S with deeper pockets, which are the type of 'megastore daytripper' fan the club are looking to attract.

Fans that have seen hundreds of games fucked over.

Fans who tipped in the dark days of Ball, Neal and Clarke have been shafted by the club they love, well played City.

Our cup scheme differs from the rags' in that SC holders are not FORCED to join.

And members of our CS are rewarded for attending the early - sometimes unattractive - rounds of the cups, which is only right, IMHO.

Scenario 1 - Fred went home and away for ten years. For the last five years he has just had a season ticket and can't make many aways. He hasn't joined the cup schemes because it doesn't fit his circumstances and means potentially shelling out an extra hundred quid every couple of months if they progress in all three. Something that he isn't comfortable with. Anyway, he struggles to make some midweek games due to work so it would be a bit of a waste.

Scenario Two - Justin has never been to a City game two years ago but managed to get his hands on a couple of season tickets recently. He takes mates and clients on the other one for a jolly good trip to see 'The Champions of England' who are jolly good and win a lot. Justin, his mate and his clients like watching a team that win a lot. He was bang into getting on the cup schemes as it means more trips to the football. He would never dream of going away and doesn't fancy going to watch a team that doesn't win a lot.



Justin is guaranteed a ticket. Fred isn't. Justice?

I, and many others, are only on the cup scheme because we are blackmailed into it through the fear of not getting tickets for games like this. Thousands of people who are on it would not go anywhere near it and would do what people always did - go to the cup games they can make and that fit their circumstances - if it wasn't for that fear.

indeed

i have always gone to the cup games so it saves the hassle of booking tickets, and before the online purchases saved £2 a ticket
there were times i was paying a £2 booking fee for a £1 kids ticket, how stupid was that? then i joined the cup scheme and that stopped

I know a lad who follows city everywhere he as done for years, think he's notched about 11000 plus, said the other day he won't be going to wembley because he's not on the scheme.

He'll get a ticket if he wants one, there are nowhere near 31,000 in the FA Cup scheme.
