ALSO..............the club know who has been to 10 plus games to watch City this season...ticket allocation should have been "oh so easy"....1..one ticket each for each current season ticket holder. 2...1 ticket each extra for a renewing season ticket holder.3 ...1 ticket each for database fans who have been to 10 plus games. 4..one ticket each for Away Members. 5...one ticket each for database fans who have been to 5 plus games.................
AND HEY PRESTO................WE HAVE A BIG BLOCK OF GENUINE CITY FANS :old:

Did you read what I just posted?...........and do you not think that system I posted is by far fairer?.......Any tom dick or harry anywhere in the world were allowed to buy a season ticket for CCFC,ensuring themselves a Wembley ticket whether or not they have ever watched CCFC before :evil: .......THIS MEANS THERE WILL BE MORE EMPTY SEATS AT OUR GROUND NEXT SEASON
ARE THE CLUB THICK OR WHAT?????? :cry:

Yes but the numbers dont add up, if every ST holder renewed we would be 5000 tickets short before you start on point three.

The way the club have done it means money in the coffers which is important when we have fans demanding players everyday.

I thought that any season ticket holder renewing their ticket for next season gets an extra ticket for the final?

Up to the first 10,00 only of either new holders or renewals.

Not all people will take up the option of a second ticket tho

OK............that could possibly be 28,000 tickets sold.Do you agree that the remaining 3,000 tickets should "NOT" be sold to NEW CCFC season ticket applicants?.....My take is that they should be sold to database fans of 10 plus games attended,and away members..............FAIR?

no the new ST holders will be included in the 28k, the remaining go on general sale to anyone on the current database and from collection at the ticket office only.

The club needs season ticket holders and that income. I still think its spot on, especially with away members getting the option to buy.

Ok, let's term the genuine fans as being those who attended every home games in the bad old days in the 90s when we had Dai Penney as captain, finishing what 4th from bottom of the league structure.

So having sold say 2500 tickets in total, who gets the rest?

Re: IF I WERE A LIVERPOOL FAN.....................

In fact, let's make it a test for genuine fans.

Ask a question like "Who was Paul Milsom?".

I'd be on my own in our end as nobody else can remember him. Which is worrying for me, in case I imagined his stint with us.

Or put it another way, my mate has seen every home game for the last several years, gets to see approx 70% of away games, was there in Wrekham with 20 others in a welsh cup game, at Darlington on new years day some years ago, you get the picture, but cannot get a ticket for wembley to watch the city!
Wolf, you are dead right, the policy is wrong.
It's ok, he will be there as i am fortunate enough to buy my season ticket and renew early, so my second one will be going to him. Hope he gets me a beer for it on the 8am train from Neath: :lol: ayatollah:
