And if youre waiting for the 10 o clock window, low points on cup scheme try now. Just had a look when doing my daughters flexi gold bournemouth ticket and it let me select a seat. She isnt going, wants to watch eurovision with her mum would you believe.

Are you talking about the protests for zero attendance season cards??? Yes that is one area I would urge the protest leaders to have a rethink.

There’s a whole thread for OSC haters. Is that not enough for you??

Why focus on the minority who may be undeserving rather than the many thousands of Blues in the OSC who are diehards??

I’ve got to say on the whole the majority of OSC’s are run spot on. Lymm being a perfect example. You’ve not got the points, you can’t apply for tickets. Sadly, you do have a minority of OSC’s who let down the other really well run OSC’s. That’s the same in any walk of life in whatever we do. If you have a particular club you need to name them or let it go. I did in the past, but the bigger picture is, the OSC’s are run well. I did my homework, so on the whole Tim is correct. Anyway, bollocks to this, I’m planning for Wembley…. Back to seat counters:)

Absolutely shocking this. This is the real problem - season ticket holders for this long - who can only get tickets through ‘points’ for a handful of away games a season while sites like viagogo have them available for every city game ever.

Until Haaland signed there was usually 4 or 5 away games a season that went to low points general sale. This season Spurs, Southampton, Forest (Cup), Palace and Brighton all went to low points for away games.
 
Noticed that fans of the two teams in the final now get pretty much half of the 2nd tier seating between them.

When the new Wembley first opened the entire 2nd tier was sold out with 'Club Wembley' packages on 10 year contracts.

Clearly the uptake wasn't great when those packages came up for renewal.

I think the issue some have with this match is that OSCs have seemingly been able to apply for tickets for non season ticket holders as well as season ticket holders - even though we don't yet know if tickets will sell out before it gets to Cityzens members - and all applications have been accepted by the club. A mate of mine, for example, doesn't even have a current Cityzens membership but has been told by the branch he applied through that he has a ticket. In other words, it seems you only need a supporter number to get a ticket through the OSC

Now I don't actually blame OSCs for doing this because they're only doing their job and applying for tickets on behalf of their members, and it's the club that ultimately decides how many tickets each branch gets but I can see a potential situation developing here where some fans could miss out despite being Cityzens members and having attended multiple FA Cup games this season but aren't members of an OSC, while some fans have got tickets through an OSC - perfectly legitimately I'll add as City have approved their application - but have attended fewer or even no FA Cup games this season

From memory weren't the Club Wembley tickets something like £17,000 for the first 10 years?

So another 700 or so have shifted even after the initial rush died down following the opening of the 4pm window yesterday

Depending on how many sell following the 10am window, it looks like there could be 7000 or less available when it opens up to non cup scheme season ticket holders this afternoon

Could be touch and go for members even if they have recent FA Cup purchase history, although we need to factor in our allocation being increased by another couple of thousand or so, plus those £255/£285 Level 2 seats are a hard sell due to the cost

My guess is that this sells out to members who have attended at least 2 FA Cup games since 2022/23

I bought my final ticket at 1pm yesterday.
Went back on to the site at 4pm to buy a Bournemouth ticket for nephew (he is a big fan of KDB and doesn't go to many matches).
I got right into the site very quickly, despite it being another drop of the cup final tickets.
I take it people are waiting until later today to book together with other ST holders.

Enjoy - good luck. Think every member and ST holder will get a shot (price dependent).

How can it ever be right that season ticket holders and/or high points holders can potentially miss out in favour of some who won’t have season ticket or high points but get a ticket cos they are in an OSC? Just another example of our club not valuing loyalty and treating people differently depending on whether you are in or out of the OSC club. I get OSC members should be able to sit together, I also get that there are lots of Blues who are extremely loyal but they would get tickets anyway. If this was a fair process the criteria would be season ticket, cup scheme and loyalty points; whether you are in an OSC or not should not be part of the criteria.

Virtually sold out. Approx 2000+ sold yesterday and today. That includes the 1400 or so that Bournemouth didn't take. Hot cakes.

Be bloody chaos that evening with a full Etihad and a Springsteen concert on at the arena.

Approximately 78k in that neck of the woods.
