Do we really need shit like this. You go and enjoy the game but dont call out others who for whatever reason cannot make it tomorrow

Cannot, or couldn't be bothered?

City's crowds this season have been really good, eg Wolves and Burnely. I reckon we could have sold 60,000 for Burnley.

Odd that we can get 50k for Wolves, and now when it's the League Cup Final, many are not interested. Perhaps it's the time of the year: Paying for Christmas.

It doesn't matter why people decide not to go and it shouldn't rile fellow blues. Not everyone can afford to go so often is, as you are alluding probably a big factor.

I will watch it on tv and be in bed 10 mins later. Yes we are going to Wembley. Already booked trains etc.

How much did your trains cost pal? I'm getting quoted 92 for me and my 10 year old daughter all in. I hate tempting fate but if I can get cheaper tickets now I'm well up for it. If by some chance we dont get to wembley then I'll take her to Harry Potter.

We will get a lot of online and press abuse for our poor attendance from other teams fans about this fixture.
It is a semi-final and with it being the only game on Sky and the Bristol City story continuing, a fair few will tune in to this game and they will see a lot of empty seats.
It will just add to our reputation which I thought we had started to shrug off as we do sell out most home games.

It doesn't bother me though what other fans say/think.

We will always have something 'negative' said against us by opposing fans so if empty seats is what we get abuse for well then it’s a lot better than having a rubbish team on the pitch.
Shame though, for a semi-final our fans aren’t really interested in making the effort. We all know if it was against Utd or Liverpool it would be a full house.

Our semi v Liverpool in 2012 was poorly attended. Only 30 odd thousand

Even the semi v United in 2010 was a struggle to sell if I remember correctly
 
There's something about the first leg that makes it unattractive, like you're leaving at half time. Think they should make these one-off games, though with a replay possible.
 
Lets face it football is a dear do .it ok saying tickets are only £15-£20 or whatever but it all the other add ons that soon mount up plus with the amount of games weve played recently the cost begins to stack up .I think it to much to expect a full house for the fa cup against Burnley then 3 days later expect another full house.
No doubt the pundits who have never paid for a ticket in there life will have somet to say but fu*k em.our crowds have been great for the past few years somthing our detractors fail to mention
