bit gutted tbh that all this choice if tickets wasn't available this morning at 9am when I bought my tickets
Still I'm in 139 and seeing City playing in an FA Cup Final which a few years ago was something I thought I'd never live to do?

Got a £65 ticket today in the Wigan end. Can't wait so exited to be going. Blue member and knew there was no chance of getting a ticket in the City end as not enough points. Anyone else in the Wigan end ? What is FA policy on this, would I get rejected if I turn up in City colours ? Do i have to pretend I'm neutral ; )

I take it you are a reporter. 29 posts to your name and a WUM post like that. Must try harder. Daily Mirror ?
I've only 34 posts Does that make me a reporter too?

Seriously though how did you get your ticket in the Wigan end? I purchased a junior ticket for their swansea game but that didn't give me the correct "privileges" to buy tickets for the final.

Reporter !! Nah city fan for 36 years living in Glasgow now with the wife. Registered as a Wigan supporter and bought a ticket for the Spurs game. Knew that was my only chance of getting a ticket. Just because I dont have 12000 posts does not make me any less of a City fan. If some people like to spend all day posting on a bulletin board then good for you, I've got better things to do with my life.
 
Bear blue there's x4 of us in Wigan end and am sure plenty of others who were making sure they didn't miss out. Sounds like the extra allocation will make it so all that want ticket in city end will get one. If fa had any sense they would put an exchange scheme in place but we all know they dont give a shit.my tips for being in away ends over the years would be
1. Don't drink too much
2.pre game wear colours and party with city fans
3. Ensure colours hidden and you look like a neutral when going in their end
4.don't give it large one when city score
5. Stand up with their fans if they score (smile and take it on the chin)
6.if found out be congenial talk football (avoid blue tinted specs)and share your toffees/toddy
7. If we win I'm sure all the bad losers will have skulked off and you can party. If they win applaud both teams or feel free to skulk off and go and get hammered . We never win............mcfc ok!

You might also be able to move into an empty area and sit next to the City fans as our end is going to stretch right into the Wigan end

How many City fans do you think are in the Wigan end?

Good tips there, will bear them in mind. Was thinking I might have to buy one of the dreaded half and half scarves that all the tourists buy these days to blend in with the Wigan fans. On second thoughts put my City bar scarf on proudly make my way to London, we're off to wembley. Dreamt about going to a cup final since a kid watching us lose the 81 final. Will enjoy the day with fellow fans before and after and if we lose then typical City !
 
Myself and my young son have tickets in the Wigan end.
I am not a ST holder but do have 2600 points.
Couldn't wait for City and see if I could by a ticket for £115.
If. I do end up with 2 tickets in the City end I will sell the other two.
Looking forward to it now
 
Is there any update on how our sales are going?

From the information on here seems there's around 17k on the cup scheme, and with the extra 4k our official allocation is 30k.

So after Thursday there should be at least 10k tickets left.

Can anybody shed any light on the numbers?
