We've organised a singing section for the League Cup final at Wembley. Tickets are going to be in the lower tier behind the goal. They're in the cheapest ticket category available. We expect everyone in the section to sing and contribute to the atmosphere throughout the game. Once we've submitted our list to the club they will allow you to pay online through the ticketing website, assuming you qualify through your ticket points.

Use the link below to reserve a place. If there's more than one person in your party you can enter submit a different form for each person, but put the names at the bottom of your form so we can seat you all together.

Any questions feel free to ask on this thread.

UPDATE: Please be aware that this block has now been filled and we can't process any more requests to join. Please keep an eye on this thread for info on how to purchase your tickets etc.

To get the most out of our atmosphere at Wembley all we need to do is sing the classic City songs:
Blue Moon
We’re Not Really Here
The Best Team In The Land And All The World
We Love You City We Do
Ark Now Here
etc.
Then player ones of course!

We’re better off singing those over and over again because they’re the ones the most will join in with. It’s never the day to get lesser known songs going (maybe on the coaches and in the pubs it is but not at the stadium).

Let’s try and sing as few songs as possible about United and Liverpool though since we’re not bloody playing them and it’s a Cup final... pro-City as much as possible!

Always find the problem with Wembley is with it being so spread out you get 3 or 4 pockets of singers all signing different songs, Wembley is typical of the modern stadium that makes an atmosphere for actual singing difficult. If we do get one song going everybody is out of time. Bluemoon often works well as fans see arms up, just need to carry it on for longer.

When foreign teams play at Wembley and get the songs going loud it is because they work with a capo at the front so they all copy.

Although we don't always want to mock other teams and focus on our own club I bet allez allez allez will sound good, its visual as well as vocal.

Yeah good point.

I’d rather we didn’t sing Allez Allez Allez ever unless we play Liverpool but that’s just wishful thinking isn’t it? Haha

Think our noise for all but the Arsenal FA Cup semi the other year at Wembley have been brilliant though so hopefully we’ll be back with a good one next month!
 
Any displays planned for this ? We could fill the whole end with blue and white balloons .... palace did it a few year ago and it looked great - cheap aswell

Fully agree with this and of course nothing wrong with
City followed by claps
And we shall not be moved.. just like a team that’s going to win the quadruple (hopefully!!) but to hear thousands singing that would be awesome

A good contact that works for the club has over the last two years contacted security at Wembley for us. This is so we can get our printed banners and telescopic large wave flags that we use in 115 south stand every game in to wembley stadium. Security is that strict that it would be impossible just to take in the stuff we have through turnstiles, officially Wembley say no banners or flags bigger than 1.5m x 1m and no sticks bigger than 1.5m ! Also they can get arsey and ask for fire certificates.

Wembley security have been good with us and said if we pre pack our flags / banners / large flag poles and send them to Wembley a few days before the game ( with fire certificates which means we cant use our hand painted banners ) they will allow our display stuff in. On the match day two of us then go in to the stadium 2 hours before KO and meet the security guys behind the goals in our end.

We then set up what ever we take with us and use the flags / banners when the players come out. Then we collect together all the flags and the Wembley security guy takes them away so we can nit use them during or after the game. These are then sent back to Etihad for us.

It sounds long winded but its not to bad, we are the only set of fans that do this, Wembley think its great as they have said our end generally looks the best of all the other teams that come down to the stadium. I think Arsenal tried to copy us in last seasons cup final but wasn't as good.

We will be taking our new 5m centurions telescopic down to Wembley as well as the other 3m telescopics with KDB on etc, plus a few other banners.

From a club and Wembley point of view, every game played down there between them they decorate the both ends with either a mosaic or flags. The clubs with Wembley organise this themselves.
 
Received a couple of questions by PM, so I'll put the message in here to help other people.



We're in the first 10 rows of level 1 which are all category 5. The more expensive tickets are row 11 backwards.

The tickets will work as follows:

You submit your 4 different forms. This automatically updates our excel spreadsheet of everyone who wants to be included. We pass this list onto the club who assign and then 'reserve' you a seat on the Ticketing Website. When you qualify to buy a ticket (through your ticket points), the seat will either be in your basket, or when you click onto the cup final game it will pop-up and say 'you have reserved seat(s).

Does that make sense? any other questions feel free to ask. ​
