FA Cup Final Ticket Criteria (Merged)

Re: FA CUP FINAL TICKET CRTERIA

I should be ok as i have over 4250!
I would be interested to see how it affects me now that some cup scheme fans have to wait until after me!
Maybe i might have a chance of a Cat1 ticket?

Personally I can't see why anyone would want to pay £115 for a ticket when you have a choice. the view was fine from the £40 semi ticket seats
 
Re: FA CUP FINAL TICKET CRTERIA

what a joke got2800 points been to away games this year, when we have not sold all our tickets.but some one in cup scheme gets in before people who have gone 2 loads of away games, birmingham away loads of empty seats in city end. plus i dont have a bank account ,how unfair mr cook .
 
Re: FA CUP FINAL TICKET CRTERIA

I think city have done well with the criteria. When the club get 25k tickets and we have more season ticket holders that that then basic maths tells you some will unfortunately miss out. When i got my semi ticket i was told they wouldn't put info out down to the number of points they have if they didn't believe it possible to go that low.

With that in mind i think the last criteria listed is where the club expect to sell out. They have dropped the criteria in bigger chunks at the start as there are enough tickets to accommodate those supporters. Right at the end the criteria goes down by 250. Another reason for the big jumps i believe is so people can plan travel etc further in advance than for the semi. Some complained they wouldn't know until a week before if they could get tickets for the semi and so struggled with transport etc. They also leave themselves more time to add further criteria should they not sell. I think this system is as fair as they could do it under difficult circumstances. Well done City!

I'm on 4020, my eldest son is on 3750, and the youngest is on 2750. We've had 2 of the tickets since the new stadium opened, we bought the younger one's ticket later, for the first couple of years at CoMS he sat on my knee. We will probably benefit from the junior rule, he's supported city since he was 4. It would be heartbreaking for two of us to be able to go and to have to leave him behind.

Your lad must be 10/11 ish? I haven't got an issue with this so much. It's people who take 3 and 4 year olds. they will never remember the day and what it means at that age. City want this family spend as much as you can visitor so this is what they do.

Re: FA CUP FINAL TICKET CRITERIA

Result..... Looks like my 3800 will get me to dreamland!!

If it's half as good an atmosphere as the semi it'll be amazing<br /><br />-- Fri Apr 22, 2011 4:00 pm --<br /><br />

Looks like I'll have to wait until the Saturday, unfortunately my dad will have to wait until the CDS date (Tuesday) so we'll have to sit apart.

i'm in exactly the same situation as you mate. my window is on the saturday but my son's is the tuesday. however if we both get a ticket that will be the most important thing.

Wait till the day the second card is eligible. That's what I did for the semi
 
Re: FA CUP FINAL TICKET CRITERIA

We qualify on the same day as CDS but are on that anyway so same day regardless. 5 am start!

The fact that I have saved every foot long hot dog wrapper for the last five and a half seasons apparently counts for nothing.

Sounds to me like they think it will sell out at around 3,500 points.

Surely 3250 if that's where the criteria goes to. Queues on that day will be big!!!

And so it should, the people who've been going through thick n thin deserve to see something awesome for once....
 
Re: FA CUP FINAL TICKET CRITERIA

Im going 4100 points but 1 son will be happy and one son will be gutted.
 
Re: FA CUP FINAL TICKET CRITERIA

3 or 4 year old kids don't need a ticket, so stop moaning about little kids nicking your ticket and ask yourself why youv'e got a paultry amount of points.
 
Re: FA CUP FINAL TICKET CRITERIA

I've got 3900 so should be ok. It has the makings of being one of the best Cup Finals ever. Stoke I think are the loudest home team in the country but if City get the awesome support given at the Semi we will easily match them. Big,big game. Cannot wait.
 
Re: FA Cup Final Ticket Criteria

as i posted on another thread,kids up to the age of say 5 could sit on their dads knee at no extra cost and no extra ticket.
