FA Cup R4 Draw | Fulham (H) | SOLD OUT (official site)

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

Its not 1980. Anything under £30 will be okay.

Are you kidding lucky if we get 15000 in for this

 

[Spurs quarter 69]

Yes, I regret that. Years ago – forget which match it was, but it was a winter's afternoon, and the dusk was drawing in, must have been an early round – I was at the top of the Kippax, and across the city I could clearly see the floodlights of that other place. Like seeing Mordor lit up in the gathering gloom. We'd both been drawn at home that day. This was of course in the days when all kicks-off, as near as nothing, were at 3 p.m. I sort of liked it. I thought of them at the top of the Stretford End and looking across the city with hatred at our lights, and us looking back at them in the same way.

My first trip to Maine Rd we were at home to Spurs in the FA cup quarter final rags at home to Everton same day. We kicked off at 3 30 they kicked off at 2 30 we won 1 0 nil they lost I think by the same score. Feared mither in town but didn't see any, rags all pig sick at school on Monday , only 53 years ago, seems like yesterday.

Bent, yet again a shit draw, the premier league clearly don't want us to do the treble. They warmed the balls before the draw, I saw him/her looking sideways, bent I tell you.

One of the most apt descriptions I've read of that place. You're the poet laureate and I claim my 5 pounds.

Surely we have more than that in the FA cup scheme?

 

[DTKOAG]

For anyone in the cup scheme… fucking shite.

 

[Bluesince88]

It’s down to timings more than anything no? I know pricing is huge but in recent years 3pm saturday cup games have been close to capacity due to the time and good pricing?

 

[Georgian Maestro]

I'll be taking my daughters to their first game. Hopefully tickets are cheap.

They’ll be over 35k there and 50 Fulham fans

Never noticed you could see the swamp from the Kippax , must have been a couple of miles north west.

 

[wythenshaweblue£££]

Instead of closing upper tiers just make it kids for a quid all over, give fans a chance to come cheaply

Don’t be silly City won’t do this will probably be Fiver a kid. Could be a sell out if the club want it to be.

Yep, in previous years Fulham have had the most poorly supported away section that I can remember.

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

Last time we played them 2 years ago in the same round, there were 39000 there and ticket prices were £10-30 for adults (the latter being Aguero 93.20 seats and bar). Kids were £1 in family stand then ranged from £5-20 elsewhere. Would imagine it will be similar.

 

[chesterbells]

If Utd get through, they will probably play on the Saturday, as they play away at Burnley on the Tuesday after.

They won’t want us both at home the same day, so we’ll probably be the Friday night or Sunday afternoon.

Cheers for pointing that out, hadnt realised. In that case I’m even more keen to see a Villa win tomorrow.
A Sunday game doesn’t appeal; a Saturday (any time KO), or even Friday night certainly does, as a few of us can go then, and make a bit of a day/night of it.

exactly - if it’s a Saturday I’d expect a big crowd.

This means ....... Mordor!

;-))

 

[117 M34]

Will be a decent crowd for this as there has been for other recent fa cup games against teams outside the PL.
42k City fans + whatever they bring, which probably won't be too many.

All depends on what prices Fulham agree to.

We had more home games around that period though including a league cup semi in the same week I think. Might have been a 1pm Sunday kick off time as well.

I guess the pandemic could level out the number and keep it at a similar level but a Saturday 3pm would be nice.

I think they must have the lowest away following in the country. I can't remember them ever bringing more than a few hundred fans to Maine Road or the Etihad. They are too posh to leave leafy West London for a trip to the frozen north. This one will have to be kids for a quid.
