Carabao Cup Final 2026: Manchester City v Arsenal 22/03 4.30pm - Sold Out

Where they running it from?

Just seen that too, at present the starting point is to be confirmed but it wont be Piccadilly with it being shut.

I think it would be Stockport if it runs.

I think a start from Stalybridge, picking up at Stockport even Guide Bridge too would give many a decent opportunity to use it.

Not long but your problem is the queue for the trains, bear in mind it's Arse so there will be a lot of people making that trip.

Winner stays around, loser leaves immediately.

It’s a madness that the extra demand for travel can’t be sorted out.

It’s hardly as if the West Coast mainline is at full capacity on a Sunday evening.

Burnham. could really boost his bee network rail plan by throwing a load of trains on

 

[EastMidlandsBlue]

Why are City always so slow at getting the information out, if Arsenal have it, then so should we, absolutely pathetic ticket office

This happens every year doesn't it! We always find out prices and what end we are via the other teams website as ours are so fucking slow

 

[Matty M24blue]

Arsenal fans already seem to be getting excited about receiving extra allocation due to unsold tickets… would be nice if any blues on the fence about going went just to shut the fuckers up if nothing else

The beauty of playing at Wembley is fans on Wembley way soon realise we’re not as soft nor as poorly supported as they think

 

[Etihad]

To be fair, arsenal knew a day earlier they'd be in the final, so had longer to get out the ticket info.

Winner stays around, loser leaves immediately.

Still long wait times Marv'

Hopefully it's us hanging around but that may kibosh plans for folk getting back to London for trains.

There was a funny moment at the Palace final when there was group of city lads singing and walking up Wembley way just next to us and this Palace fan shouted 'why don't you sing that in arabic' and one of the city lads steamed over with arms out, he was a big lad as well and went straight over to him, like 'you fookin what?!' and the Palace fan shit it immediately and then tried to laugh it off...it all ended amicably but was properly put in his place

Pep reckons it should be in the north

FFS Pep, please stfu. The only way it will ever be in the north is if the scruffy tax dodger gets government money to build a new swamp.

Hope we don't just sing in the concourse and on Wembley Way this year but actually sing during the game aswell. Great atmosphere pre game last year, lot louder than the Palace fans, but the second the whistle blew to start the game, all our fans stopped singing. Need to bring the atmosphere into the 90 minutes aswell, cmon city

Not too sure on the number but a club gets more than what they do for an Fa cup final for an allocation.

It say just over 31k to start with

 

[noseve]

I didn’t realise the rules had been changed to allow anyone to play if they’d already played for a different team in the competition. But City must have known the rules and it’s pathetic to complain about them now, much as it was for Howe to moan about Semenyo playing

Totally agree - embarrassing and unworthy of any professional outfit. It'll also probably keep being thrown back at us from now on.

It's just advertised the fact that the club didn't bother to read the rules. Anybody supporting the appeal has no right to complain when Ronaldo steps onto the pitch at the world cup, instead of serving his red card ban.

Question and I might be forgetting something obvious.

Is this the first Final we've gone into where we aren't the favourites?

Of course talking more recent history, but the FOC's might be able to set us straight on the earlier ones.

 

[HellasLEAF]

Amazing final shaping up.

Only fitting.

Hoping the criteria gets down to paid memberships with history. Done a couple of trips to Wembley before, hoping to take my grandson to his first trip to Wembley! Flights from Belfast to Luton,then train down to wembley.

 

[thelantern]

I don't believe people who want to go will have much trouble getting a ticket.

 

[Bill Walker]

4:30pm confirmed.

That's pretty shit for us Aussies, 2:30 am. :(

I'm wondering who it is good for.

Everton were more fancied but it was long before they gave match odds.
