FA Cup Semi Final draw - Brighton

I was hoping against hope we might have been allocated Boxpark again despite being on the east side. Unfortunately we haven’t. :(

So about 1500 sold since the estimate yesterday that 18000 had been sold with 15000 remaining. 10 days to go. 15000/10 = 1500 per day. On track to sell out by next Friday night. Piece of piss!

Not sure its reasonable to expect a constant demand of 1500 more each day. We might get some buying on Friday as it will be payday for a big % of people, but other than that yesterday should have been the big day for remaining sales as its gone to general sale (with previous purchase history), and today they could buy an extra 2 each. If we've still got 15k to shift, I'd be surprised if we manage to sell another 5k of them at this stage. I'll happily be proven wrong.

I really couldn't care less if I was there on my own surrounded by empty seats (sometimes I'd prefer it!), but I know some supporters get hung up on it. If Liverpool or United fans ask about it its a simple response - "how many have you sold?". None. Zero. Zilch. Fuck all.

Is there a list of pubs that have been allocated already?

I don’t know mate. I just liked Boxpark so much in February I followed somebody else’s lead on here and have been checking their own website. It now definitely shows Brighton.

Yeah BoxPark was great, shame as there's not many decent spots at all around Wembley. Will more than likely drink elsewhere around Central London and then head in afterwards.

I wasn't being entirely serious with that but a fair few have shifted in the past 24 hours - well the cheap seats anyway - and like you say there will be days where more shift and days when not too many will get sold. I do think that being in the middle of the international break doesn't help but when City are back playing again at the weekend, a lot of fans will be back to focusing on that and some may decide they do want to go after all.

Of course, it's a big stretch to expect us to shift the remaining 14-15k tickets but you never know
