FA CUP Ticket information

[our tommy]

I understand that people can't sign up to the cup scheme as they have work commitments or won't have the money available when it comes to be taken out, but you must know that when you don't sign up you don't have priority of tickets? If we wouldn't have got to wembley those on the scheme wouldn't give a toss about those that have agreed to pay no matter who we get. We had the same problem a couple of yrs ago, everyone should have know it was only gonna get worse.

I don’t moan about it but I would be gutted if I missed out because I have gone to all FA cup games this season and Stoke away. It’s my fault for not signing up but at the time I was out of work and just couldn’t commit unlike other seasons. I think the club should let cup scheme members get there’s first and then introduce something along the lines of letting fans who couldn’t commit but have been to all cup games get there’s after the cup scheme members. But maybe cup scheme members wouldn’t agree? Anyway I have 5100 points so fingers crossed I get a ticket

In reality, people with over 6000 points are more than likely to be on the cup scheme because going to cup matches and away matches will be how they have amassed their points. If you have 5100 points and there are still tickets left after the cup scheme allocation then you should have no problem getting one.

I am in the same position with my lad. He lives down in Notts now and can't make all the games so I didn't put him in the cup scheme. He has about 4700 points. hopefully I can get him one.

Wembley Train tickets Euston to Manchester May 11th 20.20

I have 3 First Class train tickets for sale for May 11th leaving London at 20.20 hours, arriving in Manchester 22.55. The seats are situated in coach H which is the quiet carriage and the seats are numbered 20,22 and 23. They are table seats, all sat together. Free drinks and refreshments will be served on this train. The tickets cost £38 each but Im happy to sell them for £75 for all 3. We bought them before we knew it was a 5.15 KO. Message me if you're interested. The tickets will be sent by 1st class recorded delivery or I can drop them off at your home/workplace.

I got one in 2011 but i was on the cup scheme :-( Good luck mate hope you get him one

That's why I am going to phone up this time and ask what's available, sod the £2.50 booking fee and hour long wait on hold.

i had to phone them up for semi tickets as i needed a ticket for the kid and i also wanted to be seated near some mates. the guy i spoke to asked me for my mates details and sorted me out a ticket right next to them

her's hoping Friday is simple. i am 50 points off 7000. grrrrrrrr

I'm in the same position. Getting my ticket for the semi final was truly a nightmare.
Here's hoping.....

I do feel sorry for you in having to pay this money out and then realising that the kick off is 5.15pm.

I would like to point out though that the kick off time was changed for the first time last year for Liverpool v Chelsea and it was stated then that this would be the new kick off time for the foreseeable future.

Very best of luck trying to sell your tickets, but I think expecting a City fan to miss the end of the FA Cup final so they can get a GBP 13 discount on a train ticket is possibly a little unrealistic. I think you'd be better trying to sell them to non City fans on another site such as Gumtree or Craigslist.

Wigan fans reckon they have sold loads of the £45 seats in the top tier but that the £85 seats behind the goal are proving harder to shift. No official sales figures released as yet that I can see.

They go on General Sale to Wigan fans this Sunday.

 

[xmusampa]

A Wigan fan who got me x4 ticketsmsays they have have requested their extra alloTion of tickets so must be selling well

They haven't sold the original allocation yet so that sounds like a bit of wishful thinking. The peak of their selling is over until they go on general sale now this Sunday

Maybe pay some tramp to lie on the tracks for a while and delay the train leaving
