Seat Counters - 2024/25

I've been holding off posting here as I did believe sales would pick up..they have t and it's an unmitigated balls up,not to mention embarrassing. We have only managed to sell 3 sections..and there are going to be big gaps in most of our section.I got a ticket front of 501 and I have been monitoring the sales of the sections beside me,there are none..these tickets are not moving. And really I don't know what criteria can be offered to change this tbh..totally embarrassing..
 
At this rate, all those who brought £30 tickets can move round to the sides of the pitch and almost sit front row in a £70 ticket

it's pitiful, 37000 season ticket holders 140000 members, 400 supporters clubs, millions and millions of followers on facebook/twitter, can sell 56000 tickets in Malaysia in 30 minutes, and here a whopping 24000 people are bothered about City winning the FA CUP, it's 70 miles further from Manchester to London than from Nottingham, we deserve every bit of ridicule that comes our way

Why on earth couldn't they have opened up sales to those with purchase history? There will be loads of City fans who have lapsed memberships who might have shifted some of the tickets left. City's refusal to sell tickets to non-Members is really going to backfire. It could be the first Wembley fixture we've had we've come nowhere near selling out. To be fair I'd like to see any other club fill a Wembley allocation pretty much twice a year, every year for over 10 years.

I am travelling with 2 Forest fans, I will be embarrassed.
I don't mind people not going it is their choice.
I just detest the ridiculous excuses.
 
3pm today, any bugger who’s bought a home ticket can buy 4 tickets, if that doesn’t move some, then I don’t know what will?!
If blocks 537 to 530 have yet to go on sale, that’s around 7200 and, we’ve got 7518 left, so we’ve sold 21000 ish.

I wonder if Forest fans would be embarrassed taking 20k+ down to Wembley for their 30th trip since 2011 and that is them being 70 miles closer as well.

Thanks for the update. I don't think it will make much difference but I hope to be wrong. I think we have sold about 23500 to 24000. Probably the difference is the estimate of the remaining blocks that are yet to go onsale. Estimates I've seen are 4,000 to 4,500.
 
Sorry but unfair to blame the club for the lack of interest.
If the tickets were all only a tenner we would still be in the same position.
Our uptake of tickets for cup games over the years has always been lacklustre.

I don't know the answer to that, I will ask them though as we are having a few pints on the way down.
I keep saying though, it is the plethora of excuses which is embarrassing, not the fact of not going,, people have that choice.

The two seasons Forest won the European Cup their average league attendance was 29,000 and 26,000 respectively in a stadium which held over 40,000 at that time. They have never had bigger crowds than City in their entire history. They have got nothing to crow about. I am sure we will end up selling more than 30,000 which is a good turn-out considering the financial state of the North West. Most of our support is not well-heeled. In Greater Manchester our strongholds of support are still in the poorest areas. We have nothing to be embarrassed about. We'll both be there supporting out team and that's all that counts.

Excuses or reasons?

I’m not going as I cannot afford the £3/400 it will cost me.

The same as all the other times apart from the finals.

If we took 15k to the Emirates or Stamford Bridge for an FA Cup quarter final tie I doubt that would be embarassing, so why is Wembley any different for a round later?
