Matt Posted 1 January 2006 Share Posted 1 January 2006 Well i'm sad to say I won't be attending. 1) I'm a Season Ticket Holder, I know this point has been made many times before, but why should we pay for the game? 2) I'm not paying any additional money especially to watch what we are currently watching 3) Its on TV 4) There will be more atmosphere down the pub...Infact there will be more atmosphere in my living room...whats that tell you about the Walkers Stadium?

Sigma Posted 2 January 2006 Share Posted 2 January 2006 1) I'm a Season Ticket Holder, I know this point has been made many times before, but why should we pay for the game? 2) I'm not paying any additional money especially to watch what we are currently watching I can certainly understand this reason. It doesn't seem fair at all to charge season ticket holders extra to see FA Cup games. I for one will be going, but only because as a student the ticket was only 10 pounds.

The People's Hero Posted 2 January 2006 Share Posted 2 January 2006 I was going to be coming up with some Spurs fans, but apparently they've struggled to get tickets Now decided to watch it at a Spurs supporting pub down here. I shall no doubt be a lone voice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katy Posted 2 January 2006 Share Posted 2 January 2006 Im sitting where I normally sit, no doubt I will regret it but it will be nice to see a quality team at the Walkers for a change.

Thracian Posted 2 January 2006 Share Posted 2 January 2006 When I got my ticket it was "anywhere you like" stuff. I can remember queuing overnight for cup tickets in the 60's and that's when the ground held a proper audience. We really need a boost at City. Good results and some interesting signings who don't underperform when they get here. There's so much fear creeping into the team and the tactics now that those two extra away games in the 2006 part of the season might be crucial. Okay, we'll undoubtedly strengthen the team but so will all our relegation rivals. When fans reflect indifference even to a match like Tottenham it hardly inspires the confidence we're gonna need to survive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know what your getting when you buy the ST, so why moan now? There are many reasons why cup games are not included in your season ticket, the most obvious being that away fans ticket allocation is greater and if like in our last promotion season when we had a lot of season ticket holders we would not be able to accomodate the away fans. This has nothing to do with the club it's FA rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has nothing to do with the club it's FA rules. Yet but in seasons before the club have included in the ST package a free cup ticket for a league or FA Cup match, so why can't they do it now? We surely would be able to accommodate the away fans they are allowed 15% of our ground capacity which is 5375, say we have 16,000 season ticket holders, that adds to 21,375 which leaves just over 10,000 tickets remaining, and where the away fans who are seated in the home blocks where season ticket holders sit, all the club do then is relocate them. So the away fans would fit in fine, every season ticket holder would have a seat and be happy, the remaining 10,000 tickets would be snapped up, making the club a tidy sum and the ground would look nice and full infront of the TV cameras.
