FA Cup Semi Final draw - Brighton

[ballinio]

I think by this time next we will have sold out .

Brighton had sold around 27000 earlier today according to someone on their forum. To be honest, I thought they might’ve sold out by now - and I’m sure they will eventually - given the closer proximity and the fact that they’re not all Wembley-ed out, whereas this will be our 13th visit since 2011 and that’s not including the 2 league games against Spurs.

I’ve got a feeling that our sales will pick up a fair bit as the days count down, and club football is back on the agenda. It feels like the game is weeks away with it being an international break. Sure, plenty of the core support are swerving it. 5 of my season ticket holding mates are giving it a miss and 3 of those 5 went to Schalke away. However, I can see some fans changing their mind about going.

Make that 4 from our Shalke trip giving it a miss, he just can't afford it.

for anyone interested, we have sold just over 18000 tickets

It’ll probably close out around 23-25k which wouldn’t be too bad considering.

We have a habit as a club of selling absolutely loads at the last minute.

Yeah, I think this is a game too far for a lot of fans and some will be banking on us possibly getting to the final and will be saving up for that just in case.

Payday at end of month, should help.

Aren’t we at the other end?

Can still get ill from it from the other end I would imagine.

I think we'll sell 25k which isn't too shabby, but the red tops will pick up on it and start tossing themselves off over it.

Can anyone advise me where is a good place to park with us being situated on that side of the ground

for anyone interested, we have sold just over 18000 tickets

If all the other clubs sell out get your tin hats on and get ready for a media wankathon, city bashing, small club jibe attack. Asked family I went down to cab final with if want to come to semi. Not at those prices was the reply.
Remember
Manchester City hold the record for highest attendance at club home ground with 84,569 at Maine Road for an FA Cup tie with Stoke City on 3 March 1934 and won the FA cup 60+yrs b4 LFC....1st domestic and Eur double etc.

Only on general sale tomorrow and most monthly pay people don’t get paid until Friday. There will be a late uptake but selling out looks fairly unlikely from here I would have thought. Wonder what the plan is with those 9 unreleased blocks? Wouldn’t surprise me if they are being sold by an agency for anyone who fancies it. There are 450 tickets on one site with tickets going for not much more than face value. Club Wembley seats are less at £87 (these are being sold for £120 on the official site!)

Tickets were on general sale at 9:00 this morning.

I suggested they should do something like this last week. They’ve left this a bit late where people will already have made more expensive plans. Hopefully it’s still early enough for people who may have been thinking about not going to get on them.
