We'll get 30,500 to sell! We have about 40K Seasoncard holders and knowing the potential for trouble, the cost and inconvenience of yet another Wembley trip, I think it's unlikely that 3 out of 4 Seasoncard holders across all demographics will buy tickets. Yes all the young singletons will, but there will be many young families of 4 holders and perhaps older couples won't fancy it. Add to that the Digital Ticket scenario complicating buying for others. It will be close but I really do believe that some tickets will go to Members with good points!I don't think there is any chance but we'll see.
I'm starting to feel sick about it already on top of the Arse match on Weds.The thought of this is giving me piles
You're not factoring in the fact that people who qualify but aren't go will buy anyway and pass on. Everyone wants to go to this one.We'll get 30,500 to sell!

Can Avanti West Coast/M6 cope with 60k Mancs travelling to London at once? I'm on the same page as you - between the size of the allocation, the fact a lot of folk already have plans for June 3, and the logistical challenge, I think there might be more availability than we'd expect. The cheaper tickets will go quick though. For Mancs based in London - students, younger workers etc - it's a dream.We'll get 30,500 to sell!

It won't bother me if the bet doesn't come in I won't be cheering the bet on. It will on the other hand pay for me for a nice summer break to soften the blow if things go completely tits up. I'd rather be depressed on a beach for a month because we won fuck all than depressed at home surrounding by smug cunts gloating that we won fuck all. Anyway we will win all 3 and I'll lose my bet so all is good.You can't take that, surely? An emotional hedge is one thing, but the pain for that bet to come in, ie City winning nothing, would be just too overwhelming...

I'm exaggerating - but between us and United that's a lot of Mancs between Piccadilly - Euston and the M6, even if folk stagger itwe won't have 60,000 going
I wouldn't even give them the time of day!!!! ;-)
