I'm going because I am a long standing STH and a real fan who sticks with it through thick & thin!

Anybody who voted for "It's only the League Cup" should automatically not be allowed a ticket if we get to the 1/4 finals or further. After-all, it's only the League Cup.

I'm not going because I'm going to Reading Festival next week and need to save all my pennies for beer money. :drink:
And you have therefore decided its 'only the League Cup' and prioritised the Reading Festival. Not having a go, but lots of us are choosing alternatives to the game, and that means one thing; something else is more important to us this week.

We all earn the right to apply for tickets over course of last few seasons (via points). That is fairest system all round and allows football to come second sometimes, which is healthy.

Can't be assed, it means leaving work earlier than usual and getting in about 11 if the trains are working fine. Not worth the hassle for a league cup tie against Cheltenham

I have to be at work 7am on Wednesday in Birmingham and it is only Cheltenham, forget it is just the whatever cup, had it Been Birmingham I might have been there but Cheltenham nah!

+ I have an interview Thursday at 10 still need to prepare for that and I am sure the still blurry eyes I would have by then would not go down well.

I'm actually looking forward to it. Was supposed to be working until 22:00 but have taken half day leave.

It's the start of a journey that ends up with us in the Europa League next season (hopefully).

Not going, well maybe, I don't know. Bad fan. I'm going to Birmingham on Saturday, though. Good fan. I saved up for that one.

I can go and watch the Ryman Premier League game between Bognor and Leatherhead, spending only 5 minutes travelling each-way instead of 90 minutes.

Not going as I don't normally do cup games, unless it's special opponents.

(For me, nowt to do with the gloom and doom theory that Bloom & his suited colleagues are destroying the club).

Its All Too Beautiful
I'm a 1901 er and havn;t missed a game other than through illness, not going as feel for whatever reason, the clubs management is apathetic and treating the fans with a little contempt. I'm not buying into there s three weeks left of the transfer window, nothing worthwhile is coming to the Amex now, remember Harley and Dobbie. FFP is one thing, but taking a step back and watching what is going on I feel we have a real financial squeeze. If we sell Buckley the only high earner left will be CMS, I don't like being mugged off and the premise on which I bought seats in the 1901 to entertain clients is not meeting expectations. I'm a lifelong Albion supporter but feel that the club is being steered incorrectly.

Apathetic 'meh' towards this game. Plus as sure as night follows day, we are always shocking in the 1st round of the League Cup. Its tradition. We've had the occasional blip where we have got past lower league opposition, but its quite rare.

I voted other. File me under can't be assed.
