Maybe they’ve been told informally what they are getting. I’m not questioning what he said.

Have you been living under a rock, all the OSCs have got their tickets. That’s why this debate has started. Bloody hell mate.

£330 for 2 pensioners to watch 90 mins of football 200 miles away is an absolute scandal.

For comparison, the published ticket prices for the French, German and Italian cup finals are as below. I can't find published prices for the Copa del Ray.

There is simply no justification for the FA to set the prices at the eye-watering level they do. Then have the brass neck to market the competition as "the people's cup".

Rip off Britain at it's best.

It's crazy.

I went to my first City final in 68, think it was a quid, My dads car broke down on the A56, near wythenshaw. He wanted to give up and go home, but I cried and cried, so we ended up thumbing a lift. 3 cars later and we made the KO. We jumped on a train home without a ticket, my dad had no money anyway.

I still love it, but it's probably the last time if i have to cough up that money again on top of the hotel etc.
After the last 2 finals I just want one more win, for Pep and Bernardo.
And for me and my brother , 130 years of City match going between us and we never moan , just enjoy being City !

My first FA Cup final Spurs £3.50 and £2.50 for the replay, how times change :-)
 
1966 World Cup 10gns for all the North West matches which include quarter and semi final plus Final and 3rd & 4th place final
 
Bloody hell have you still got those, God knows where mine ended up after Mum and Dad passed away, remember getting the Thursday and Friday off for the replay.

Despite it being on its arse after the rags pulled out of it that year, they still see it as a prestigious competition. I see it a slight notch above the League Cup final.

It was a fantastic competition in the 70’s/80’s. All day build up on BBC.
