FA Cup SF | Liverpool | Sat 16 Apr 15:30 | Travel, Ticket & Pub Discussion

Any word on whether this is limited to one ticket per member? Feel like this policy hampers ticket sales a bit.

Yep as we did mate (we'll be on the cheap seats first thing tomorrow though) only hope the lads who put the effort in and travel with us to this get the opportunity for the final should we get there as well.

Hi,

I’ve been a city fan since 08/09 season. Today I have read the statement about ticketing, which I was a fan of, cause I thought, there might be a decent chance for tickets to go on existing membership sale/general sale. While reading this, I am disappointed to see that police may cancel the general sale cause of the safety reason. I am happy to purchase a membership, tho unsure if I will get any tickets cause of the above.

I am from Slovakia and I bought the flight tickets weeks ago and I don’t want them to go to waste. I went to Manchester to see the west ham home game couple of years ago – cancelled because of the storm and I got a refund. Would someone be able to help and buy the tickets for me +1 for mate after receiving the payment from me, if I don’t meet qualifying conditions? How likely it is that I won’t have a chance to buy a ticket?

Don´t really have money to spend and buy one from the reselling sites, where the price is much higher.

Thank you very much for any replies much appreciated!!!

They'll be a queue, always is but you will easily get back to Birmingham.
There is half a dozen trains between 1800 to 2030 to Birmingham Moor St.

You'd have to check times from New St to Mcr though.

Joking apart most Dippers will by heading South after the match on the train. I reckon the Liverpool based ones will be all over those free bus tickets.

Anyone know the chances of getting on one of these trains back to Birmingham? Bear in mind that Liverpool have that end of the stadium so their fans are likely to be ahead of us in the queue at Wembley Stadium station. I’m just looking at train options via Brum, Leeds, and Sheffield. Leeds looks like it’s out as there is a planned strike on TP Express that day which will see a limited service between Piccadilly and Leeds. Sheffield more doable as Northern also run trains to there. Birmingham option is probably the cheapest of the three but don’t want to risk being stuck in a queue for ages at Wembley and ending up on a train that gets into Brum too late for the last train back to Piccadilly.

The last train to catch will be the one that leaves Marylebone at 19:37 (around ten minutes later at Wembley) getting into Moor St at 21:30 to then get to New Street for the last train to Manchester at 21:57, assuming it all goes to schedule. The one before is scheduled for 19:00 (19:10 at Wembley). I went this route for the Watford final and the queue took a while (about 45mins) and it was just City fans in it by then but I wasn't in a rush as was parked up at Warwick. Just don't be tempted to jump on any train as they can stop at different stations later on making changing impossible.

You could always go National Express or Megabus from Birmingham instead as there's some that leave around 11 and more around 3am! Lot of faffing about innit.

Is our wonderful FA the only governing body that doesn't make any money?

Wembley is a separate business that they own which loses money, however overall they were well in the black before COVID overall.

Now they are losing money hand over fist due to COVID

Wembley was massively hit in 2017 when a they lost about 40% of the ten year season tickets due to non-renewal after the first 10 years.

The best thing for them to do is sell it to Chelsea.

Do these Moor Street trains definitely stop at Wembley as it doesnt show on the route planner (1st stop is Banbury)
