It's no problem getting a ticket if you have deep pockets. Live football tickets already selling them behind the goals for £300 each. Could do with our friends at the BBC reporting why genuine fans can't get tickets but this lot can sell them even before they are on sale to fans. Empty seats is easier to report on though.

Not only can they sell them before they are on sale to fans but before they have even been printed! Not only that but they aren’t even one of the club’s authorised resellers of which there are many. Utter parasites.

No problem at all posting on here and don’t be taken in by the fact city have hit a bit of form of late . Fa cup finals can be very unpredictable as was proved last year and also when city played Wigan in 2013 . Really pleased to see Palace instead of villa tbh as their fans were awful at the league cup final in 2020 plus the fact both teams fans using the same motorway on may 17 could have been an issue . Well done to your team getting to the final , you deserved to win the first game in 1990 imho and have always thought their was a connection between our two clubs via Malcolm Allison , Steve Mackenzie , Derek Jeffries and others .

Many thanks. Our fan base, in general, are great but obviously have a few dickheads. We do create a good atmosphere so should be a good day. I agree about 1990 but when you are playing Utd with a ref from Brighton you don’t stand much chance! Big Mal still loved, by most, at Palace. He changed the whole culture of the club including nickname and colours. I must say we have got ourselves a very good manager and may struggle to hold on to him unfortunately.
 
I think we should recreate the Blues Brothers away day at Palace in 1990 for the final.

Imagine hundreds of suited up Blues walking down Wembley Way.

The media would be in meltdown.

If that could be organised back then (in fact how was it fcking organised?) I'm sure it can be done now.

All together now..."Everybody needs some body"

I know two Blue Brothers who've already got the band back together!

I don't understand why they didn't work out a time before the semi finals.
Should have announced game time and ticket details at 9am this morning to be sold from tomorrow.
Not as if they don't know ticket prices so all they need to work who has what end and there aren't that many permutations with only 4 teams left.

They'll consult with the clubs and police about transport and other things. They might not want two sets of fans travelling north through Euston at the last train, but can tolerate just one club. It's fair enough. Though maximizing television is probably top of the list whatever.
 
I see the Wembley hotels are bumping up prices to eye watering levels. I thought us playing a London based team would free up space so drop the prices, sadly not.
