The way They've done it is sh*te, I'm all in favour of allocating tickets to those who attend the most games but ive been to 6 aways, two of them happen to be Bolton & Leeds though, so some people who have been to less aways have been given credit over me, how's that right?

I wouldn't mind aswell but I chose to go to Leeds rather than a league away, The club didnt make people aware back then that it wouldn't be worth [Poor language removed] all

I agree with you that the way they've excluded the cup ones is unfair, especially as this is a cup match.

It ain't fair on the face of it buddy, but they can't change the allocation process, I do understand your point as I have been to Leeds, Cheltenham and Bolton but they don't count! Tickets for Cheltenham clearly indicated cup games don't count as did Bolton so it should not be a surprise that they don't count for Oldham. Just sayin, not want to anger you any more but we all knew beforehand!

I see your point mate but they've changed it for this season, cup games have always counted in the past & like I said when I bought my Leeds ticket I wasn't aware there would be no credit for it what so ever. I haven't even got a problem with league aways being given priory over cup (I.e. games go on sale to 6 league aways, then 6 league & cup a day or to later etc.) but to receive no credit what at all for those games is a joke.

Yeah that's what's baffled me the most, why cup aways don't count towards a cup away game? No logic in that!

If the club uses the same system next season I wouldn't be surprised if the early cup aways attendances dropped, if people are going the aways for credits & there is none for the cup then people will think twice about the Leeds aways etc.

Yep with you on that, a clear ticketing policy should be available on the website prior to the start of the season (maybe it is somewhere) we will all then know where we stand. An away credit should be 'just that' irrespective of league or cup. The qualifying criteria for Oldham would have had to rise accordingly and you still would have been outside the quota but you would have felt at least your away cup support was counted and recognised. Understand your frustration.
