Re: FA Cup Final Ticket Criteria

Anyone with less than 3250 only has themselves to blame - probably the same people crying that they couldnt afford the £15 for Leicester at home but can suddenly find over £200 for a day out in London.

sounds fair enough too me, should be plenty of tickets for those who want one
with the prices and travel costs being so high,
there will be a lot of wife and 2 kids to support tales like we had for the earlier cup games wont we?

Both spot on we couldn't even get close to selling out for the 1/4 finals now we have 50,000 supports all with a story to tell!!!

I need 2 kids tickets one has sufficent points one doesnt so only 1 can go its a shame but only fair and a life lesson to a young blue who's time will come. I missed 1981 for the same reason my dad went I got over it even if I did cry for 2 days !!!. Went to the reply in 1981 cried agian !!!!

The lad who said it is all points is bang on the money. It shouldn't matter about anything else other than points. If someone has more points than me and gets a ticket then fair play to them but for some kid with 500 points then thats a bit of a sickner.

It's impossible to have a seasoncard and have 500 points.

Re: Ticket news on website.

Do you think pal? i'm the same i reckon they have done this to send a message to those under 3250. At least we know where we stand early doors.

because it would depend on take up

Thanks for correcting me but it's more about the point I'm attempting to make. If someone has more points then accept it however if someone has less points it's a little harder to swallow.

Re: FA Cup Final Ticket Criteria

I got two £115 yesterday for face value in the city part. Rather than sitting around moaning on here how unfair things are you should be getting off your arses and exploring every route possible - the longer you leave it the pricier it's going to be!!

Interesting. I've asked a couple of people to keep an eye out for us but where did you get yours from? Just to give me another avenue.

Apologies for the delay in replying - I typed a bick fuck off response and it logged me out!!

Anyway, in a nutshell, there are 40,000 tickets going to people who are probably not even interested - even if a generous guess at 25% being interested, that still leaves 30,000. The trick is to find them.

Search for sponsors (bars, stadium, clubs etc etc) and then try and link into them on places like facebook - you'd be surprised how small the world is. Hopefully you'll find a non city fan who works there or has a mate there - if you're on linkedin even better.

Re: FA Cup Final Ticket Criteria

The ones moaning about kids going must have next to no points and don't deserve to go anyway.

You'd say someone on 3000 has next to no points and deserve a ticket less than a kid who's dad has bought them tickets and trhey are on 1,500 points?

Really?

Re: FA Cup Final Ticket Criteria

it'l be disappointing if i don't get one. at 3480, im just going to hope for the best if and when the wednesday comes. whatever the rights and wrongs of the fa's ticketing policy are, i think the club have handled it really well. for all those hoping for tickets, i can only wish you luck. with or without a ticket i will see you at the green man on the 14th, as the hotel is already booked

3,000 points is a JCL in most cases. Give the kids a chance.

1000 + 190 for first season.

That leaves 1810 over ten seasons. Or a SC for the neck end of 5/6 years with a few cup games and a some aways. Hardly JCL is it? Don't forget the loyalty scheme only goes back 9 years.

Me for example, had a ST since I was 5. But in 2000-2003 I was at Uni and had to give up my seat. Been a SC holder for 5 years again (once I was able to afford it again after Uni debts) and have only just got over 4,000.

As I say, hardly a JCL. Saying that just shows you aren't thinking it through.
