Never a truer word DD. Quite sad to see users who are so smug or retort with "Well serves you right for not being on the cup scheme" or "Will you be at Newcastle tonight then?"Load of rubbish on this thread, I'm afraid.
This is a forum. People are anonymous. They woman and back-bite and wind up for fun, or because they have issues. It's always been like this on here and on every other football forum. It isn't real life.
I bet hundreds of blues have said to another blue this week "I can't get through to City for Real tickets", and about practically every response will have been along the lines of "Bad luck mate. You'll get one." Virtually nobody will have said "Where were you against Seville" or "Haha, you should have been on the scheme like us real fans", unless they are still at school.
Forums are full of shit.

The truth is that the club and its ticketing systems were 100% responsible for this. Even people on the cup scheme are saying they haven't got their tickets.

I went to the Juve game and missed the Kiev game, i went against Hull but missed the Paris game,i am going against Madrid, the point is if i have the money in the bank at the time they go on sale i will go,i suspect that is the case for quite a few fans who are on the lower end of the wage spectrum, it isn't just a case of missing games because of not being arsed, i can't think of anywhere i would rather be than at the Etihad.
I think the point is that the ticketing systems didn't collapse for the earlier rounds of the Champions League or the League Cup. The League Cup home games were cheap as chips but I think more City fans went to Wembley than to Hull at home. A lot of City fans hide behind the cost of cup ties when really they just can't be @rsed. Remember the chant a few years ago - "If your watching on the telly your c***? Aimed at those that couldn't be bothered turning out for cup ties that were on the box.Never a truer word DD.

Some cup scheme members have posted that they haven't been allocated their seats as they should have been.Not sure what you mean by the last point though.
Us loyal fans just get our card enabled ;-)
I've never bothered checking before. Up until now I've just been receiving a text message on the day of the game telling me I'm in my normal seat. Do you think there may be issues with this one?Some cup scheme members have posted that they haven't been allocated their seats as they should have been.
So I'd stop being so smug and check before it sells out ;-)
That's because they had longer to sell them and spread out the entitlement to buy over a longer period. So there wasn't as much pressure on the systems as there was for these, where they stupidly tried to force all SC holders to buy in a 5-hour window, which completely overwhelmed the systems.I think the point is that the ticketing systems didn't collapse for the earlier rounds of the Champions League or the League Cup.
