Topic: League Cup

[shaunNW]

There's a chance the game will not be played on Thursday according to some arsenal journalists. I'm hoping that's just bullcrap but would be a disgrace if it happened.

[redgriffin73]

We'll have Mo and Sadio back to play in it at this rate!

[ScubaSteve]

So…the final. What are the odds of success in the ballot?

Got to at least start a new thread 😅

[Schmarn]

What will the criteria be? Hoping it’s Leicester and Arsenal.

Supporters with 3+/priority rights holders: Guaranteed
Supporters with 2: Ballot- roughly 70-80% chance of getting one (educated guess)

[elmothered1]

3 games from this seasons cup games guaranteed 2 games in ballot for remaining tickets my guess

[D🐶G]

Not much else they can do, unless they included games from the 2019/2020 League Cup, which they won’t. Kind of picks itself really.

Probably get around the 33,000 - 35,000 mark going off previous seasons.

[Djimigotamedal]

Details at 2pm tomorrow

I wish they would go back to previous seasons to be honest…like you said they won’t. It’ll be all with 2 homes in the ballot to fight it out. Praying you can’t pass on tickets, which you will haha. It’s so backward

[Will.Lacey]

Chelsea have been allocated 33,053

[CornerTakenQuickly]

Everyone with two games should get one with the given allocation (33k)  - Everyone on the ACS should have one.
One game go into a ballot.

It was like this when we played City - 3 games got it and then ballot with two

This was before the main stand expansion, so there will be more people eligible.

this seems close enough

[Louis97]

Does anyone think it’s going to be a separate sale for those with 2 in the ACS?

[TeddyTime33]

Chelsea have been allocated 33,053

we've got the West side too

[TeddyTime33]

Does anyone think it’s going to be a separate sale for those with 2 in the ACS?

no it'll be everyone with 2+, ACS doesn't mean anything

[Louis97]

no it'll be everyone with 2+, ACS doesn't mean anything

Ah cheers, I hope you’re right

What is the best way to get tickets for this game?

[ScubaSteve]

What is the best way to get tickets for this game?

to go the home games and then enter the ballot and hope for the best? 

[ripsaw19]

What is the best way to get tickets for this game?

Direct from the club is the best way always.

[willss]

What is the best way to get tickets for this game?

To have bought previous games on your card. End of.

[cookie78]

we've got the West side too

Is the West Side bigger?

[Vinay]

to go the home games and then enter the ballot and hope for the best? 

OK....

[LFCStuart]

Do we think 2 will guarantee a final ticket or will that be a ballot?

[elmothered1]

Any 3 from Norwich Preston Leicester arsenal home and arsenal away guaranteed any 2 in ballot

[Red_Irishman]

no it'll be everyone with 2+, ACS doesn't mean anything

Sorry but 2+ league games or what do you mean by 2+?

I’m in the LC ACS.

[TeddyTime33]

if you're in the LC ACS you'll be in the ballot at least

[TeddyTime33]

Personally think they might do 3 credits guaranteed (including the previous season) so anyone on the ACS should be rightfully guaranteed for their loyalty.

that's not how tickets have worked ever, it'll only be from this season

[TeddyTime33]

Do we think 2 will guarantee a final ticket or will that be a ballot?

ballot but good chance

[TeddyTime33]

Is the West Side bigger?

no idea I assume it's split pretty evenly

[TeddyTime33]

What is the best way to get tickets for this game?

if you have no other credits in league cup? You won't, Don't bother trying touts

[elmothered1]

Why should acs count over people with aways as well? And some people don't do acs so they can sit with friends or family in cup games. Acs is no different to having the game on your history by purchasing in the sale plus people are moved and not in the acs due to contractural tickets etc so they also have as much right as anyone in acs

[Vinay]

if you have no other credits in league cup? You won't, Don't bother trying touts

I think I might have to...

[TeddyTime33]

I think I might have to...

or go to the previous games, if you wanna pay 300 quid+ then go ahead

[TeddyTime33]

Aways are a very small minority so they'll be guaranteed regardless and have that additional credit imo

5.8 was the largest away but yeah most will be on the ACS or 2+ anyway

[elmothered1]

Misses the point really being in the ACS shouldn't give people any priority over people who have the same games on their ticket history by other means. And it's not as that's me cos I'm in acs and got all the games and aways anyway same as being an sth which I am too shouldn't give you priority over a member with same games in history.

[bertiemee]

What is the best way to get tickets for this game?

Go the normal games, not just the final? 

[VVM]

Reckon they should count games gone to in previous years. Arsenal 2019/20, Chelsea 2018/19. That’s loyalty.

[TeddyTime33]

again it's not really fair to just start doing this in the middle of a campaign, from next season sure they could change it but they won't during the season

[ScubaSteve]

I know they won’t but it sort of makes sense to make the ACS a priority as you needed previous attendance to get on it.

I’ll be happy if they stick both STHs and members in together for the ballot.
