Community Shield ticket information

[lancs blue]

We had a right turn out for the Full Members Cup Final. Must have been around 20K plus. Not bad after an OT derby the day before as well. Would be amazed if similar numbers for Comm Shield but who cares...should be a great day out.

23,000 at the FMC as I recall, the Chavs had about twice as many, unsurprisingly. Probably a similar story for the CS with the gooners taking most of the "neutral" tickets.

Finances are a bit tight for me so I'm still not sure if I can afford both that and the Newcastle game in successive weeks and Newcastle has priority.

I have decided not to go.
Money is tight and frankly I don't believe the players will treat it seriously.
They certainly didn't against the rags after our FA cup win - whereas the rags gave it everything..

To counter that...the Chelsea game at Villa Park was a belter.

No offense and I know cash is always a concern for me as well but I don't go to games just for the footie.

i'll be there but not doing Newcastle. have to pick and choose sometimes.

 

[CITY FOR LIFE]

No doubt we will be out numbered but there's not a chance I would miss watching City at Wembley, 3 of us will be tracking south from North Yorkshire :)

we dont seem to have huge numbers of fans who are willing to travel, and if we cannot sell 26000 tickets, then as a club we are not growing that quickly.

for a club that has finished 1-2-1 in the league, thrown in a fa cup and league cup, our popularity should be through the roof.

just found the dates/details on general sale, can someone help me out tho, it says this on the main site


General sale to supporters with existing purchase history – Tuesday 22nd July at 9am - i purchased a away ticket to chelsea last season, will i qualify?

If you were a blue member last season and bought it from the club yes.you should qualify tomorrow if you were a member last season

its blue members tomorrow, im not a blue member i am relying on general sale

You will still need to be a member to get a ticket on general sale, only members can officially buy tickets..

 

[Plaything of the gods]

I've never been a Blue member but I'm registered as a supporter on the MCFC site and did buy some home tickets there last year.

I was able to purchase a ticket for the CS this morning. Bit disappointed that I couldn't specify row&seat within the chosen block. Anyway, seems a good position.

How many people are using the 'prefer to go to Newcastle away' excuse... We're gonna have about 15,000 fans at St James' at this rate!

 

[St Helens Blue (Exiled)]

Can't fucking wait,I really can't.
Didn't know we ever had friendlies against these tarquin cunts!
