Could we be looking at the best ballot odds for a final in years if we were to make it? 3 home games with the upper anny closed, away teams taking their full allocation I'm assuming and one of the two away games had a very limited allocation.

It was 1 in 1.6 chance in 2022. Imagine it’ll be roughly the same or 1 in 1.5 at best.

Dont forget upper annie are still getting given credits from ACS...

[didopich]

Things could change if ARU opens in January for a semi against Port Vale 🤣

[ScubaSteve]

So we'll be on Wed 20th given our league games. Everton play the Sat b4 so can play on Tues

Praying it’s the Wed as I can’t go on the tues.

Looking at the fixtures, the Wed would make sense

come on Port Vale! Higher allocation than Bournemouth!

What actually happened to the people on the ACS who were supposed to be in the UAR? Were they given the option to relocate to other sections of the ground? I imagined the club would have probably been able to accommodate a decent amount due to a lower demand in the earlier rounds

[Barrowred]

Did the LC Autocup sell out this season?

[Pinehurst Alan]

Did the LC Autocup sell out this season?

Yes it did.

[pl_kop_1969]

Yeah they were re-allocated elsewhere in the ground

ACS in upper Anfield Road weren't reallocated to elsewhere for the Leicester match. Tickets were cancelled but you retained the credit. They then had an early sale just for cancelled ACS ticket holders. I know as I was daft enough to think it would be nice to try the new stand! Luckily I only did it for one competition.

I got 3 tickets in the early sale easily enough. I think it then went to further sales, not sure if it went to all members or just with credits.

[ScubaSteve]

100% the people in the ARU should be in the ballot if we make the final.

I’d 100% exclude though, those who have passed on tickets to F&F. This should’ve been introduced when F&F first went live. People would think twice about pass on tickets so freely

Apologies you're right, I was talking nonsense - was thinking of ARL

Confirmed on the official site v West Ham on Wed 20/12 ko 2000.

They’d never introduce it for cup competitions due to the huge backlash they’d get from fans up and down the country who have years of loyalty. That’s just my take on it as if it wasn’t an issue they would have introduced it at the same time as the league.

It should definitely be considered. Where's the logic allowing someone to pass on all the games throughout a competition but then have a free run at a final ticket.

I don’t agree that they should be in the ballot if we get to the final. Priority should be given to the people who actually went the games and spent the money on tickets etc.
Shite situation that they missed out, but doesn’t seem right that someone could go Leicester, West Ham, and the semi but miss out on Wembley to someone who didn’t go any of the games.

Same logic is why I agree with your second point.

Those in ARU had a chance to get tickets elsewhere in the stadium before they sold to members. Only those that bought tickets should be in any ballot. People shouldn’t be punished for sticking to the rules the club set.

Wednesday our game vs West Ham in the Carabao 1/4, on Sky

[rewood]

Does anyone know if you can cancel hospo tickets?  I'm one of those that didn't do autocup as fancied trying to sit with mates. Foolishly assumed upper Annie would be up and running. Might buy for West Ham hospo just to hedge my bets. But if sale does look positive for those with full credits I would cancel!

Can’t see them doing that mate, or others too would do it for a fall back.

This is from the T&Cs
i) less than 14 days prior to the date of the Match 100% of the total price paid for the Matchday Hospitality Ticket (including any administration charges);
charges);
(ii) between 15 and 30 days prior to the date of the Match 75% of the total price paid for the Matchday Hospitality Ticket (including any administration charges);

Cheers. Just found it on website. Cobblers. Anyone got gut feeling or estimates for those with full credits, but not in autocup?

It will really depend on how many West Ham take up. If they take the full 6,000, then you've got very little chance, as Leicester only had the usual away section.

They took 6k

[rewood]

Thanks for the advice. It was helpful on here when you convinced me not to cancel my autocup in UEFA cup in upper Annie. That paid off. Just bought hospso for West Ham. Made sure it was linked to my account ok. Got email ok with supporter number on. But, it hasn't appeared in my history. Cobblers.  T and C's are ambiguous as it does loosely suggest credits for future season. Oh lordy.

It won’t appear in history till the week beforehand but it will definitely carry a credit.

[rewood]

That's helpful mate, cheers. Bit of short term pain, long term gain I think.

Reckon there will be tickets available for those on autocup in upper anny?

If you went to Leicester, they will prob put you in a separate non guaranteed sale. Should be ok tho

[pl_kop_1969]

I think you kept the credit for Leicester if you had a cancelled ACS seat in upper AR, even if you didn't buy in the additional sale. I presume that means it shouldn't matter if you actually bought for Leicester.

I bought for Leicester but I'm assuming there will be an additional sale for cancelled ACS that include all cancelled tickets whether you actually bought Leicester or not.

so no chance for all members then? Surprised there's been no ticket details yet

[AR48]

I wonder what partial opening means for autocup in upper anny?

Lord knows. But I'm well peed off. You will see from above, I bought West Ham on hospso to safeguard my history. Now, because the club under promise and over deliver and no doubt feel good about it, I would probably have got West Ham in normal sale. Bollocks.

If you were on the autocup and had ticket cancelled you would have got the credit.  So assume you were not?

[rewood]

I didn't do auto cup at start of season despite qualifying cos wanted to try to sits with mates.  Managed to get Leicester one, but would not have got West Ham one. Until club mislead us again. Anyway, it is good news for most, Inc couple of us, but I'm 250 quid down and a bit peed off.

[Shanklygates]

Seems odd that there is still no tkt info about this. Not on website so it's like it doesn't exist

It is on the main site on the fixture list. Aways never show on the main site under 'Tickets availability' until the criteria has been announced.

Oh yes, good point!!! Sorry.

[Jm55]

I wonder if the delay is in connection with the opening of the Upper Anfield Road and the club hoping to be able to sell at least 5,000 of those seats.

I was wondering the same, it would make sense as they want to have it partially open from United onwards don't they?
