Just got renewal in post and it says

"The first seven pre-paid cup tie home fixtures (FA Cup, or UEFA competition fixtures)"

So it looks like if we had've qualified for uefa cup - we would've been lumbered with them on ST :evil: :evil:

Yes.
For me going to games on a season ticket is a regular event and I want to know I can go to all home games, in all competitions.
Carling Cup is admitedly a bit different but would be happy if that was included too.

Understand people who want to save money though but perhaps they can privately rent out ticket for game they cannot go to or use ticket exchange?

But Quartz you should easily be able to do that without the need for cup credits to be automatically added to the cost of a season ticket. The club could give first option on their seat for any Cup game to the ST holder, for a limited time, and the likes of you would still get your desire.

However the rest of us ST holders wouldn't (and shouldn't) be forced to pay for Cup matches up front when we don't know whether we want to go or are even able to. And either selling the thing on TX or passing on your ticket to someone else isn't as easily as it once was, as the demand isn't always there - as much due to the lack-lustre performances on the pitch as anything.

I didn't know that, but this poll is really a no-brainer, the 7 credits shouldn't be attached to the overall season ticket price, it's a total scam by the club, especially the way that Wenger treats the F.A. cup and some C.L. games with his piss poor weakened line ups.

Would not want ticket allocation affecting the manager's choice, he'll end up blaming it on that too.
As for cup credits or not, doesnt make a difference because u'll have to pay come end season.
Unless suggesting cup games should NOT be included, then they have to be ST for ST holders willing to attend ALL the matches and ST willing to attend just the EPL. That'll open another can of worms.

I think this system is better because u somewhat know how much it will cost. Perfect system would've been ALL cup games are included in the ST :D

Why would you have to pay in the end? The point is you wouldn't, and perhaps they could have another system for cup games.

Sorry Rich, I don't understand what you're getting at, I'm saying take the 7 credits OFF the overrall cost of the season ticket as it currently stands, I'm not too interested in the F.A. cup and I'm now not particuarly bothered about going to the C.L. games as they're a big bore, especially in the league format round. Perhaps, they're should be an opt-out system when it comes to these credits. :?

:oops: :oops: :oops: i was under the illusion every ST has some automatic cup allocation eg Automatic Cup Ticket scheme at manure which is even worse.
Fvck! should start reading other sites.

Obviously Arsenal will never be able to 'sell out' :roll: of the cup games if they didnt force people to attend.
