Re: FA CUP FINAL TICKET CRTERIA

Have faith.

They virtually sold out at general sale for a semi-final against Man Utd at cheaper prices.

I reckon they'll go to around 2500, those with 3000 or over will be fine I reckon.

This i have 3500 and on cup direct and i think i will get a ticket :)

Re: FA CUP FINAL TICKET CRTERIA

Why have Stoke got 82 tickets more than us?

Sorry to be pedantic. But that's 82 blues missing out.

We will have 25,082 also, it's just City don't put the exact numbers we get for any allocation, in particular away from COMS, it's always a rounded up or down figure to the nearest 100.......................relax.

Re: FA CUP FINAL TICKET CRTERIA

My old man says in the old days it was even worse - 12,500 tickets for each finalist

What's sickening is that every season ticket holder at City and Stoke could get a ticket and the FA would still have 30,000 left for freeloaders assuming Stoke have about 25k season ticket holders

Bitter pill to swallow

Re: FA CUP FINAL TICKET CRTERIA

Gutted, only got 3100 so i`ll miss out However the people with all those points clearly deserve to watch City have success as they have watched them through some bad times.

Good luck Blues, have a top day out !

City Square for me I think.

Re: FA CUP FINAL TICKET CRTERIA

The FA is an utter disgrace. They built a 90,000 seater stadium yet the biggest match of the domestic season has only 50,000 fans in. That's 45% of the stadium not officially affiliated with either club. If you look at the allocations for the semi final, that had 26,000 tickets going elsewhere which is more than enough is it not? And there were empty seats in the 2nd tier. I bet the suits will take up their tickets for this one, but it's a sad sign of what the FA's priorities are with regard to Wembley. Then you look on the internet and see touting sites with tickets going for £500+. Supply and demand; the FA siphoning so many of the seats allows this to happen. They've effectively legalised touting and it's an absolute joke.

the biggest mistake they made was not making the stadium big enough

to come up with a figure of 90k when they knew how many tickets they would be giving away to the football family for big games shows how badly they got it wrong. The stadium should have been as big as they could have made it, well over 100k to allow as many fans as possible to attend these games, they would no doubt sell out for any cup final anyway!

Ah well we will have to make do for now, just think ourselves lucky we have not yet been to a european final, we'd get 12k for the europa and not much more for the champions league!
