FAQ from the OS....Thought it might help.
Q. How many tickets can I purchase?
A. Supporters wishing to purchase tickets must present their valid Seasoncard and, if purchasing for other Seasoncard holders who meet the qualifying criteria, present their valid Seasoncards. Under no circumstances will tickets be sold to supporters without production of a valid Seasoncard. Subject to the above conditions, one Seasoncard holder may purchase a maximum of six tickets.
Q. How many loyalty points will I need to purchase a ticket?
A. It is not possible to accurately predict at what point all tickets will have been sold.
Q. My child doesn’t have as many points as I do. Will I be able to get them a ticket at the same time as mine?
A. The club has made a number of tickets available which may be purchased on behalf of junior Seasoncard holders. An adult Seasoncard holder who meets all the qualifying criteria to purchase a ticket may purchase a maximum of two junior tickets at the same time. This is subject to availability and adult Seasoncard holders must present the valid junior Seasoncard(s) at the time of purchase.
Q. I want to sit with people who will not qualify at the same time as I would. When should I purchase my tickets?
A. This process has been put in place to ensure those supporters who sit together at the Stadium are given the opportunity to sit together at Wembley. Obviously, not all supporters will have the same loyalty points, so in order to address this, the following process will apply:
The minimum number of supporters that qualify as a group is four, the maximum number who qualify as a group is six. Supporters wishing to purchase together as a group must be in possession of Seasoncards which are located in the same area (i.e. Stand/Block) at the City of Manchester Stadium. Appropriate checks will be carried out at the Point of Sale.
A group of supporters may purchase semi-final tickets together as soon as 50% of the supporters have the requisite number of loyalty points, as long as all supporters have 3,000 points or more.
For those supporters on the 2010/11 FA Cup Games Direct Scheme who will directly benefit from having an accelerated purchase process, it is important to note that should they wish to sit with fellow supporters who are not active members of the FA Cup Games Direct Scheme, they can only purchase together when other Seasoncard holders within the group are eligible to purchase in their own right.
In line with the above, any one supporter can purchase up to six tickets, using valid, qualifying Seasoncards. To purchase tickets on behalf of other supporters, the buying supporter must be in possession of each of the respective cards at the time of booking and be prepared to answer a number of security questions relating to each of the card holders including date of birth, postcode and card number.
Q. I am on the 2010/11 Cup Games Direct Scheme, am I guaranteed a ticket?
A. If you are a Seasoncard holder, are an active member on the 2010/11 Cup Games Direct Scheme for the FA Cup competition, or have enough loyalty points then you may apply in line with the selling criteria. Supporters should note that if they have left the 2010/11 Cup Games Direct Scheme (FA Cup) regardless of the reason, they will not qualify for priority access for a semi final ticket.
Q. I have attended all home FA Cup Games, am I guaranteed a ticket?
A. Only Supporters who are active members of the 2010/11 Cup Games Direct Scheme for the FA Cup competition, are guaranteed a ticket.
