Yes. Can't prevent them but they are more difficult to sell. Two of us sat separately as I couldn't be bothered returning mine and then buying together. Looking forward to this game. I think we'll play a mixture of young and experienced players.

Will sell out this week. Not for the first time, we’ll have a full house for a 3rd round FA Cup tie against lower league opposition. Another sign that our support has grown substantially over the last decade, because before then we’d have been lucky to get 35,000 for a cup game against Port Vale, even with a large away following and cheap tickets.
Averaging 54k in the League, 50k in the Champions League, meanwhile Man Utd have handed out 30,000 free tickets in Cup games this season but it's still the Emptihad.

Daughter bought me some tickets for this game considering I haven't renewed my season ticket it came as a bit of a surprise. In tow I will be taking my eldest son ( Goes to maybe half the matches a season) and my two grandsons first game which will be a big thing for us. One Burnley fan and one Blackburn fan will be going too and they're excited too.
I just hope the real City turn up and make a good impression.

Marvin, not that I'm calling you a liar but how do you know?, is there a way of finding out how many tickets are left online?.
Do hope it's true as we (the Vale) are bouncing at the minute and cannot wait until Saturday evening...
I don't know for certain.
City's tickets are sold online so I log in with my username and password and flick through the available blocks, and estimate the numbers left. That gives an estimate for the numbers available online. If City don't put them online then my estimate will be wrong. For example, I know there are single seats left in Levels one and two that are not shown online so I kept my comment simple, "there are ~2,500 seats left online". There's probably a few hundred single seats left in a few blocks in Levels 1 and 2 that will become available as the seats in the 3rd tiers sell out.
Here is an example of one block. There are about 20 blocks left on sale (mostly in the 3rd tier) so I click on each block, guesstimate the number on sale and keep a running total. Most days I post the figure in the topic.
I'll do it each day so you can keep an eye on it. It's only a guide based on City's online selling system.
Just called the club to confirm my seat as I have some how deleted my seat information as we get moved to accommodate the away fans and they told me I would either have to come down on match day when the ticket office is open or print it off, for one I don't have a printer and two I am on my hols so my brother is using it, find it weird that I am in the cup scheme and been told I need to print it off, I had a right go at the poor girl I just called at the club though it ain't her fault, just another case of piss up in a brewery...
