So we still had the highest attendance but nobody mentions the other clubs grounds not being full.....funny that. Stoke who haven't won anything since 1972 and playing Sheffield Wednesday who brought a huge following still couldn't sell out.For Boro that was a great crowd considering the employment problem there but they were playing Everton and they took a good following too. Agenda......what agenda??
 
Soooo they reckon we should be selling out a 55K seater stadium for a LC QF against Hull do they?
Highest crowd for 4 years at a QF and only because Arsenal V City and Chelsea v Liverpool and United v Palace were the draw in 2011 - Utd having the lowest att of the 3! Disnt make a big deal out of that though did they the dicks!

Errr OKayyyy then!

He will have been for the semi final. If I remember correctly I had about 4,500 points at the time but I was a cup scheme member. The first day sales were for people with over 6,000 points (regardless of whether they were a cup scheme member or not) and any cup scheme member. I got seats on the first day. For the final loyalty points had first priority over the cup scheme, which was the last time they did. I managed to get a ticket for that on the third day if I remember correctly. Not surprisingly the club subsequently made the cup scheme the priority to get people to join. Also not surprisingly cup attendances went up!

I've just looked it up and you're right. All Cup Scheme members were eligible on day one of sales for the semi which was 6000 points. So my mate with hardly any points jumped the queue just by joining the scheme the week before. For the final, all cup scheme holders became eligible at the 3500 points level, so they kind of jumped half way up the queue.

To me it's fair that the Cup Scheme holders get prioity. I am one, but i've got plenty of points, so it's not really any skin off my nose.

You missing the point £18 might or might not have been a fair price but on top of the ticket price for the Southampton game 3 days earlier it works out a dear do for families of couples

Yes i agree, but the families know this when getting the season ticket. I agree it could be too expensive for them on top of everything but i think the club do enough to try to keep that expense down and shouldn't be expected to price tickets lower than they already are.
 
Just had two rags in the office give me crap about empty seats - just said back - did you see we got the highest quarter final crowd in 4 years last night. 4th semi final in this competition in 7 years, we might even be able to fill it when we get Messi and Pep and Pogpa.

Silence.
