12k tickets, why the fuck didn’t they use a bigger stadium?

You think demand will be much higher than that?

I’m struggling to think of a cup game with an away allocation similar to that, where it hasn’t been a piece of piss to get hold of one. Even Old Trafford.

We getting the opposite end to where we would normally be I think. OS shows CAT 1 tickets at £50 but map shows them to be £55!

I sincerely hope they go to as low as possible. I qualify in day 1 but the kids are on relatively low points, albeit with season tickets. If we take 20k plus to London we sure as fuck would take more than 12k to Leicester.

Printed tickets only.
Scousers and printed tickets?
What could possibly go wrong ??

 

[Blue Mist]

If I'm jibbing in do I still need a forged ticket in case I'm stopped.

Asking for a scouser

Do we know how many tickets the dippers have been allocated? Official tickets that is

The King Power Stadium is a modern stadium ( I have never visited it ) so why are some seats down as restricted vision ?
I am assuming there are no columns that support the roof in the middle of each stand ,so it's got me baffled to be honest.
On a secondary note, the £15 coach fare from The Etihad is excellent value for money ,with the current price of diesel I would assume that it is being subsidized by the club .

That ticket allocation is ridiculous. 12k tickets for the whole Club. Once the owners, sponsors, management, players and hospitality have had their dip in the pot there will be f..k all left for the fans.

I’m already resigned to watching it on telly.

Why didn’t they have it at Old Trafford ?

The cheapest 3 categories gone up by £10, the top category increased by £5.

They had been the same since 2012 though, but it is a bit of a jump. Wigan taking zero fans meant they kept the prices low.

Inflation is rampant. Just been to Marks and Sparks and my usual cream cake has gone up from £1.75 to £2. Deeply concerning.
