Perhaps he thinks everyone has that magical money tree at the end of the garden. Everyone knows the WBA game is more important results wise and hopefully a game we have more of a chance of getting something from. Also a much shorter trip, perhaps the club should have been a bit more savvy and bought less tickets for Everton and more for WBA. And I don't agree with Cardiff fans having a go at other Cardiff fans for not going here and going there etc. The attitude of "I hope the club don't get more WBA tickets" is quite frankly shocking. :roll:

Why do people give a shit about attendances? As long as your going and enjoying yourself does it matter because it certainly didn't when we were in the lower divisions.

I can see why Vince is upset, apparently many City fans have cancelled for Everton after Vince got our club to get extra tickets of Everton, Vince puts a lot of time and work in and being messed about would do anyones head in. Vince does all this for Free.

Its happened on a lot of away trips this season.

Carls was having the same prob, but thankfully its money or no booking with Carl now.

I haven't travelled with any official supporters club since 1981,maybe earlier. Making comments like he has are both foolish and unwanted, I'm sure you'll agree.

My son is going costing me around 80 quid all in and for me to go aswell it would be double that
but if Vince and the other away attendance moaners are so concerned and embarrassed then i'm more than willing for them to pay for me and i'll go to make the number up and i'm sure others would take up the offer to :thumbright:

Vince Alm could be the nicest guy in the world, but I find his constant slating of fans rather boring and embarrassing.

Why is that then, fella?? :?

And what do YOU do FREE for Cardiff City FC's supporters?? :oops:

I don't know Vince (to the best of my knowledge never met him) but I do know from many many years of support that he works hard for little or no return and a lot of grief (like this rubbish from you :oops: ) on occasion :roll:

Re: Vince Alm Cardiff Supporters Club "Its Shocking & embarr

Fri Mar 14, 2014 7:43 pm

54 quid altogether for Everton away, I'm going but it's shocking, the prices we have to pay, United, Arsenal and Chelsea were MUCH cheaper

The embarrassing issue is coming out with comments like he [ allegedly] has. Keep it shut, if people have decided not to travel, due to a variety of reasons, that's entirely up to them. Make people pay the whole cost of the trip up front, then it's all sorted.

Anyone think Vince has had one to many,it is Friday after all.

His comments may well be borne out of frustration. Neither of us know how he might have been 'let down' by empty promises (as I know happens elsewhere) which is why I am surprised you felt the need to make the comment you did, as you have still not qualified the "embarrassing" bit IMHO ;)

I won't get into a 'ping-pong' match with you, though. Just asked the question :ayatollah:

Is it defo pay on day, I'm going but my daughter wants to come. Don't fancy getting there and she can't get in!

Re: Vince Alm Cardiff Supporters Club "Its Shocking & embarr

Fri Mar 14, 2014 7:58 pm

Whether he has been let down by individuals or not, slating the Cardiff fan base as a whole is not on.

Of course we are a nation of cherry pickers - football is expensive!

Get off your high horse Vince & be grateful of the fans going.

Vincent's attitude stinks, call himself a supporters representative, it's not the first time he's had a pop at Us fans. If he has concerns over away following perhaps he should have a word with his mate tan to put free coaches on for the rest of the season :wave:

Yes it is def pay on the day, City have had to pay for all 3,000 tickets, so they of course want their money back. :thumbup:

At the last travel club meeting, as a group we were asked what allocation should our club take for Spurs and Everton.

It was the decision of the whole travel group to take 2,200 for Spurs instead of accepting 1,700 which was the lowest we could have taken or the 2,700 that was the maximum allocation. The thought process was that it was a Sunday game at 4.30pm and that would affect sales, and it seems we got the number right.

For Everton we were offered to take a reduced allocation but we unanimously agreed and in no uncertain terms that we should take the full 3,000 allocation because each one of us in the group had reported that Everton was the game more than any other that our regulars wanted to go to.

I provisionally reserved 150 for Everton but have only bought 100 as the demand when it came to it just wasn't there. I usually get the booking correct but on this occasion I have been left surprised to say the least and I think other travel group operators are feeling the same.

To be honest when I look back to the Burnley game last season, the game that we won the Championship title for the first time in our history and we took less than 1,500 I suppose I shouldn't be too surprised really that we are not taking our allocation to Everton.

For anyone who is knocking Vince or anyone else who organise tickets and travel for fellow City fans, I would say there is nothing more frustrating and annoying than people pulling out of trips when you have got their tickets for them on a promise, it is a headache to say the least.
