FA Cup Final | Crystal Palace (N) | Sat 17 May 4:30pm

[Citizen of Legoland]

Ridiculous, I know but keep persevering. I kept getting this screen but after a few attempts finally got in. £40 for this old codger up in the gods. Come on City!

I got mine eventually but ended up in a different block. Should have bought 3 yesterday when I had the chance and risked the 4th being sat elsewhere.

Issues with website. All OSCs been given access today and causing the seat plan to mess up, if you refresh enough the right amount of tickets will probably appear

Should have given OSCs its own window so they could try tickets without issuues.

I was getting mine through my supporter club. Got the email yesterday saying I can buy from today from 10am and gave me the blocks requested from our club. There was a buy now link on that email to click at 10am. My own tickets actually qualified for that window too.

I clicked the link and it put me in the queue but gave me the option of the other blocks, not just the ones quoted for my branch. I still bought in one of the quoted blocks (£125, nice one....) Have I ballsed up and not bought through my supporters club and just on my ticket then? I'd have thought that when I logged in it would only be the blocks available our branch has asked for.

I've been a season ticket holder since 1977, didn't go platinum because there are 4 season tickets in the family and the extra cost was just too much. We've had the other 3 season tickets for over 25yrs now. Been all over the country watching city, got married, had kids and had to stop going to most aways around the time points started being given out so missed out on loads more points. I can accept that, its just unlucky timing.

Currently waiting for my 4pm window to open and I've just been sent a message from a friend who already has 5 tickets courtesy of his supporters club and none of them are season ticket holders. Maybe I should bin the season tickets and join a SC for future games.

It stinks mate and until it is stopped the piss take will carry on.
It’s why the majority of people become members in the 1st place.

Supporters clubs should not get any tickets. This will end the injustice once and for all.

I become a member to get the slim chance of getting an away ticket, something I would not get through City due to the closed shop process they have. That's with attending games for nearly 30 years. Most of it stinks whichever way you look at it but supporters clubs don't get anywhere near the amount of tickets people think.

Just one of a few injustices with tickets but the club will be happy for this one to carry on as it helps divide/keep infighting going.

Good news the east stand is terrible when it's sunny

If you sit in the south side of eastside you can avoid the sun.

Or join the cup scheme and you would have had them yesterday.

 

[Lewisszn]

How many are left

Yes that is true and at one point I was in all three and I do go to every home game so it does seem pointless not to be in them. We opted out as my wife went self employed and as I am already self employed and we both were working odd hours and she had less flexibility to change her times so often ended up with a spare and it wasnt worth the hassle.

Note to self screw the hassle and rejoin this season. Still though I think my point remains as to non season ticket holders already having cup final tickets before season ticket holders. Fingers crossed for 4pm.

Can understand dumping the CL scheme and LC schemes as they are midweek and the CL is expensive, but the FA Cup is at weekends like league games, is usually significantly cheaper and on average it’s only a couple of games (maximum 4 and sometimes none). Seems a no brainer to me. Platinum is irrelevant as far as Wembley is concerned apart from maybe getting into the first buying window.

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

£90 for two, top tier.

Thank Christ for junior pull through.

To be honest i did mean to go back in the FA Cup this year but missed the deadline. Too many things going on at the time and I realised too late. And if im also honest Mrs 2112 gets really pissed off with organising her weeks only for it to be screwed by football over and over again with kick off times and days being changed. So I also thought it best to back off from some of the cup schemes, money coming out early causes double the hassle when the games get changed. Its wearing me down these days as well.

I've always been in the Cup Scheme and mainly due to not having Platinum I'm just short of 12k points. Therefore had to wait until 4pm yesterday for the 6k window. I logged on at 3.50 with 700 in front of me in the queue. There were no 2 seats together left in Cat 3 in any of blocks 510 - 515, and the best I could get was 2 in Cat 4 Block 517, Row 17 ! That's never happened I'm the past, so maybe a combination of changes in ticket criteria, higher prices in Tier I and no doubt OSC reservations. Our OSC got all tickets applied for and that's never happened before. No doubt secondary ticket sites have sliced off a portion too. Seems to me that City are shit scared of it not selling out.
