Will probably be next week for the ACS announcement. The season started a week earlier last season. And the club have just announced PL registration this week so the club won't want people to mix the two registration announcements up.

Have there been any announcement yet?

The Auto Cup Scheme provides qualifying Season Ticket holders and Official Members the opportunity to secure home tickets for Liverpool FC's season-wide cup campaigns - the European, FA Cup and League Cup competitions.

Full details for Season 2023/24 will be published in due course.

Still saying that on the holding page... wouldn't surprise me if they announce it tomorrow for registrations next week

You’ll defo be sorted due to the Annie road expansion but id say not in the first sale

Less seats to UEFA i’m guessing too?

Hoping all those on 3 get sorted. I'm on 4, dad's on 3. Reckon it's worth waiting till (if) it drops?

I hope so

I always used to go to cup games, can be a better experience than the PL in a lot of ways

'in due course' = how about an ETA there

It's a bit strange that nothing has been released about this yet. They may have decided to wait until after the members sales seeing as the first round for the Europa won't be until mid-September and the League Cup will be about the same time as well.

https://www.liverpoolfc.com/tickets/seasonticketrenewals/auto-cup-scheme

All 4 games for guaranteed season ticket ACS, 1 game for ST/Members 'non-guaranteed' (but probably will be guaranteed I reckon).

I got it wrong first time I think but it is slightly confusing...

"To ensure a fair process for all supporters, season ticket holders are subject to the same qualifying criteria as official members for enrolment into the Auto Cup Scheme(s)."

Yet all the ACS criteria splits ST and members into guaranteed/non-guaranteed.

Interesting.. is this the first time PRH have been involved in the ACS and interesting to see they are allocated a seat rather than allowed to choose

So you can register your interest for the ACS, but like previous years I'd hope us mere mortals members who have full credits from last season have priority if it's over subscribed.

Yes, first time the offer has gone out. It used to be on a game by game basis. Previously the available seats did not include the KOP, so it will be interesting to see the seats offered.

No its not.

I've been in the ACS under PRH for several seasons now.
I was told previously it would be rolled out to all PRH, looks like its finally happened.

what you say above about the Kop seats is wrong btw.
there was Kop seats available granted not many, but when the next sale started a lot more would be available and in better spec's
likewise for cup final tickets

I think the wording means it's actually impossible to clarify.

"season ticket holders are subject to the same qualifying criteria as official members".

Yet all the listed criteria gives differences between ST and members.

But with the expansion of ARE and it being the Europa league, I reckon it'll be guaranteed for anyone on 1+ anyway.

Also wondering this getting credits for all homes and being lumped in a ballot with people who only had 1 such as Napoli which dropped to all members hardly seems fair

benitezexpletives · « **Reply #5741 on:** July 11, 2023, 04:26:05 pm »

So no chance for members without at least one cl home credit from last season?

It's not so much a ballot with 1 credit, it's along the lines of a registration of interest so they will work there way down from 4 games to they can no longer guarantee those on that particular credit a place on the scheme.
E.g. 4 credits - guaranteed... 3 Credits - guaranteed.. 2 Credits - Registration exceeds remaining seats

Should there be a load who would miss out on say 2 credits for example, then they'd potentially run a ballot

There's definitely a chance, maybe not on the ACS but there'll be a number of people who won't bother with it because it's "europa league" and of course the pot of "UEFA tickets" will not take as many for the group stages

I think this pretty much says that the more credits you have as an ST or a member the higher priority you're given

PLEASE NOTE: Season Ticket holders are advised that registering their interest during the non-guaranteed additional enrolment period DOES NOT GUARANTEE enrolment into the Auto Cup Scheme(s) as enrolment will be based on the number of registrations for each competition, with priority given to those who have recorded the most number of home games within the relevant competition. Therefore, we strongly recommend that you enrol when renewing your season ticket, or during the guaranteed additional enrolment period to secure a seat in each scheme you are eligible for.

Nothing has been announced? I would imagine those with 4 will go on the auto cup (as that’s what’s being offered to st holders).

Even if not, you will be in the guaranteed sales with the 4 cl credits anyway.

The st statement reads

So they may say register if you have 1+ cl (for uefa cup auto scheme) but in reality if you have 4 and register you will be guaranteed, if you have 3 you may have a chance if not all 4 apply, etc.

Email basically says anyone with one credit or more needs to register and then a ballot will be drawn. The more credits you have, the higher priority you are, so anyone with 4 European credits should in theory get sorted before anyone with 1.

Can someone explain, I don’t understand how you can have 4 European games and not be guaranteed when we now have a bigger stadium same with league and FA cup. If you went then surely it’s guaranteed? Am I reading the email wrong?

Am I correct in that FA and league cup has no prerequisites? I e. Members with 0 can register (but obviously fall behind people who have 1 or more)

Because they'll have a set number available on ACS and conceivably there are more than that amount on 4.

All members register interest for the scheme, if there are more applications than seats then they give priority to those on 4. If there are still seats left, they give priority to 3, etc. I would imagine those on 4 will be fine as the Madrid one had the least seats possible.

But as I keep saying, it ultimately won’t matter as even if you didn’t apply for (or get on) the auto cup scheme, you will be in the guaranteed ticket sales for every game, so no queuing and first dibs on seats etc.

Ok so everyone on the ACS in 2022/2023 is on 4. Add in all those people who didn't get on the ACS but had 4.

Now if those two figures are more than the available ACS spots then they can't guarantee it. Not everyone on 4 will want to go into the ACS but the club have to think that they can. So therefore it's better to word it in such a way.

Just had the email, don’t understand why it says not guaranteed when we’ve been on full Euro credits for over 10 years? Makes no sense whatsoever. Doesn’t even say how many credits we are on, so doesn’t help my sisters who distributed one of the games last season whilst they was given that option instead of forwarding.
