Welcome to the world of 'Coventry' City Football Club under SISU
Complete Joke.
I have been to 4 away games this season with my 2 boys. Because i book the tickets and not them i was only allowed to book 2 seats yesterday. What am i supposed to do flip a coin to decide which 1 I take? I even called the ticket office 14 times yesterday before I got through and was told "Sorry but we only have 1 person buying although we can see the your 2 boys had tickets bought for them, because they didn't buy the tickets themselves, they are not eligible to buy a ticket now"
I'm online at 9.30 to see about 10 tickets available none of them together. WTF.
Complete Joke.

Can't they threaten Arsenal with legal action to get more tickets?
Isn't that the normal way to do things?

They didn't take the extra tickets because people on this site said they/nobody was going.
Time for some self reflection?

From Coventry City Mad;
"Arsenal Ticket News
Two representatives of Coventry City, who attended the Supporters Consultation Group meeting last night have confirmed that it was a "commercial and financial decision as to why the Sky Blues did not take up Arsenal on the offer of a second allocation of tickets.
City, who have been allocated 5,186 tickets for the Fourth Round game a week today, were told by Arsenal that they had to pay in advance with no buy back facility if the tickets were not sold, for tickets in the upper tier, a practice commonly used by a number of Premier League clubs.
With the game being on a Friday night, live on television, tickets dearer than for the League Cup tie sixteen months ago, where less than 8,000 City supporters attended etc and after checking social media, forums, websites etc to gauge opinion, the club decided that that they would not be able to sell over 8,500 tickets for the game and on a commercial and financial decision, turned down the extra tickets.
Arsenal have subequently now sold the tickets for the upper tier and are reporting that they have sold out of their entire allocation of tickets."

Same story here.
Been to most away games, and bought 6 cup tickets for four people accross two previous cup games and it would only let me have four ever.
The web site only remebered 2 of the 4 people (lapsed season ticket holders (and remaining lapsed season ticket holders)).
Why the hell they didn't take the full 8k I don't know.
Total idiots.
Please go now.
Its a simple solution. Simply buy a season ticket or a membership. £207 well spent. I had no trouble getting my four tickets.
So the posters of SBT can be added to the list of who's fault it is for SISU making wrong decisions.
Previous Owners
CCC
ACL
Higgs charity
Sky Blue Trust
Mary Mungo Midge
Bob Brolly

I bet if they told the SCG they were building a new stadium you'd believe them.

Made me smile how the club were tweeting to people who could not get through on the phones this morning to buy tickets online - this was at 10am long after all online tickets has been snapped up (they went in about 30 seconds). They don't help themselves sometimes.
Sorry BHSB I forgot about you! God knows how!Turkey you've missed me out I am as I've already said top of the list

its very obvious what happeded here..
1. their initial allocation was more than enough to cover the people who had been attending sixfields..
2. they get the same share of the total event ticket sales regardless of those additional tickets being sold to coventry fans , or if arsenal sell them to their fans
3. they are only concerned with sorting out the people that had been attending sixfields, the rest of us can go spin ( not a great business decision i grant you, but an understandable petty shot back from SISU to the rest of us )
4. the final dig from them was mentioning forums & chat rooms .. ie. see all you lot on skyblue talk, yes you, well you can shove it! love SISU
in a nutshell!!
i think rfc might be very upset by that remark bhsb.They don't give a damn about the people that attend Sixfields or anybody else
i think rfc might be very upset by that remark bhsb.
If it wasn't this it would be something else. Moaning when it was moved to a Friday - no one would be able to go, you know - now moaning people can't get a ticket.
Just more stuff to argue and disagree about.
It'll be the tele for me on Friday.
