FA Cup QF Draw | Saints (A) - Sun 20 March 15:00

Pretty sure we’ll sell our allocation, the only reason it hadn’t yet is because different levels of loyalty points can get tickets on different dates, so loads of people have to wait. If they’d been on open sale they’d have been gone very quickly

It is sold out as of today, went on open sale on friday.

Anywhere near the ground that lets away fans in, noting I will have a 15 year old and a 13 year old with me (my kids, before I get accused of anything)

Standing order pub. Half and half pub, never any problems. A lot of people eating.

They got the Gene Kelly and they sold it out. There was bigger attendance than United at home.

Only because by being given the Gene Kelly, there was no need for any segregation. And no, they didn't sell out.

Just like united didn't against city as people saw gaps, however city didn't mention it in their defence and the Soton fans who missed out got compensated according to the ruling. However 19 years later things change on hearsay.

Not hearsay mate - mine is an eyewitness account. I'm still pissing my sides laughing at you claiming they sold ther allocation really quick all because they had to lay out for the FA Cup Final the following week!

It was a planned send of with subsidised coaches a club push to support the boys to get them up for the cup final.

That was sited in the claim by Soton, they could have filled the 3k, not just the 1,300 which they did.

City's only defence was health and safety, and there was no claim by city that tickets were returned. If they were not returned they were paid for and it sold out.

City had no proof it didn't sell out and neither do you. The figure will be in the first programme if you you don't believe me form 2003/04 .

Didn’t the club make a plea to Southampton to reduce their allocation?

And you don't have any proof that it did sell out either. There was plenty of talk at the time from people at the game that they took the piss with that complaint as we could all see that they didn't fill the Gene Kelly. Apart from you for some weird reason.

For someone who is such a pedant, you don't half get your facts wrong at times!
