On the cup schemes and £15 isn't bad to me but what really screws it up is the kick off time. I struggle to get the last train back for 8pm kick offs and 8.10 means that I'll have to be one of the much debated early leavers!

I know it's not the club's fault and feel sorry for kids who may not be able to go. Remember when all kick offs in the evening used to be 7.30pm.

Madness kick off time particularly when potential for extra-time and penalties. Not likely to happen I know but stranger things ahve happened in football.

Get a player with a bad injury and could have penalty shoot-out starting at 10.45pm lol

It's on ITV which is why it's a stupid kick off time so they can have 10 minutes build-up after Coro.

Well done city on these prices. As pointed out before this is minimal pricing and I'm sure if they could lower them slightly they would for this fixture.

They could have charged £10 f they wanted to - which is the real minimum.

Hasn't somebody already posted a link to FA rules which states the minimum in this competition is £15 and its the Cap 1 cup where they can charge £10?
 
Don't mind the later kick off times tbh, don't have to chase my arse as much after work, as for the ticket prices? Piss poor show by the club as I was expecting to pay between £20-£35, are well I can always give the difference to one of the many scruffy fukkas that fill the 219 bus when it stops in openshaw....

The link was out of date, these are the 2013/14 ones with significant changes in price setting: http://www.thefa.com/thefacup/more/rules

This is definately last time i go in cup scheme - will cost me £35 for me and son - fin rip off after watching the sh*te they turned out at blackburn.

Just to respond to the obvious quotes £20 isn't to much then I ask the question how many do you think would turn up if there was no cup scheme. This should have been £10 for adults and £5 for juniors. I anticipate the actual turn out will be around 25k

You can still opt out of the scheme by cancelling on-line or giving customer services a ring. As a seasoncard holder you'll always get a chance to buy if you want to. When we won it we were away for every round so everybody happy as we got first dibs for he semi and the final. Last year we were home every round so it cost a few quid more. Personally I like the cup scheme as it saves me faffing about and guarantees me the chance of a decent seat rather in the gods at Wembley, but you can opt out at any time not just before the competition starts, just give up your points and the bonus it provided come May and keep your cash in your pocket.

Fuck me mate, you're way out - When we won it we had 4 HOME cup ties - 2 replays, (N.County, Leicester) and the 5th round v Villa and Q Final at HOME v Reading.

But I concur with all the faffing about stuff. Give me the scheme every time, every match, every competition. Costs a fortune watching all this City stuff - fucking magic.
