I went to both the MK Dons and BorehamWood games
I guess the key would be in the Ts & Cs of ST purchase... If it doesn't say in there, 18 home games and priority window for cup games then there is no argument, other than it is the decent thing to do, or at least consult 'some one'...
Not at all imo. If over the previous god knows how many years the purchase of a season ticket has implicitly conferred the right to purchase a Cup ticket then to change that needs consultation and prior notification. Of course the club doesn't do consultation and prior notification.........................................I guess the key would be in the Ts & Cs of ST purchase...

I went to the Yeovil match with my mate who is also a ST holder ….Your 2 plus me, thats 67 to go. Come on who has an ST and went to a Cup game last season. You have MK Dons, Yeovil, Norwich and Borehamwood to choose from.
Response from Liz Finney.
Thank you for your email.
Our data shows that many STHs choose not to attend Cup games, especially early rounds, and therefore do not accrue Cup Points. As you know, this game also falls only days away from our League clash with Everton which makes it even more likely that STHs will not attend in numbers.
As in the way that Away Points reward those that travel to away games, the Cup Points will give priority to those who do attend Cup games. It does not make sense to give priority to thousands of STHs for a Cup game when only 19 of them hold 5 Cup Points and 75 hold 4 Cup Points.
I hope this clarifies the position but if you do have any further queries in this respect, please let me know.
In the meantime, thank you for your feedback and your support for the club.
With kind regards, Liz
Me and Mrs have 2 each from MK Dons and Borehamwood. Missed both Norwich games as Mrs works so can’t make midweek away games and missed Yeovil due to Covid concerns.I’d like to know how many season ticket holders have any cup points, just out of interest.
I don’t have any, last cup game I went to was Luton, I took my oldest Grandson.
Hopefully I’ll be able to get a ticket and take my middle Grandson. If I can’t so be it.
I haven’t been to enough cup games.

I reckon it will go to general sale.
Here is my reply from the TO.
"Good Morning Steve,
Many thanks for your email.
After conducting research into season ticket holders using their seats for last season's cup run, the research showed that only approximately 70 season ticket holders used their seats for the cup matches.
Therefore, we have decided to only use cup points for this game to ensure it is fair to those who go to every cup game.
Kind Regards,"
70 ST holders only, really, I could name 10 off the top of my head. Even if it were true why not make the provision with 8 weeks to go. How about they consult with a fans group ? I am really tempted to tell em to eff off but that is probably what they want - me not turning up.
Come on, hands up who as an ST holder went to a Cup game last season.
This is a very valid point... and something that should be raised to the club... If this is an oversight by whoever has drawn up the numbers then they need some serious words...Those numbers are deeply flawed. ST holders only have priority for home games. There have only been two home cup games. Therefore the relevant metric is how many season tickets holders have 2 cup points in respect of home games.
My brother and I, that's two more.
Have written a strong complaint to the Club.
