Seat Counters 25/26

I have a slight feeling of dread about it. They will overestimate demand, make life difficult for too long and we won't sell out. It would be nice to see the Flapjack Method v Algortithm head to head battle though.
I think they'd need to let people buy 2 straight away, let people go with their mates.

Personally I like to think it'd sell out. Cheaper than FA Cup and no potential Wembley fixture a couple of weeks after. And well over a month to sell it.
 
should just do season ticket holders on the league cup scheme on one day - there can't be any more that 15k who are?
then season ticket holders not on league cup scheme broken down 15k, 10k, 5k on the next day
then members with previous purchase history in the league cup
If you worked in the ticket office you'd be fired mate.

This makes way too much sense for that lot to consider.

I always think that your first part is important. People make their minds up quickly about whether they will go or who they will go with. If they are taking a family member they probably want or even need seats together. Didn't we have a community shield when they did that and it sold out quickly?(despite a "boycott").

That's exactly right, the community shield vs Arsenal they let everyone buy 2 and it sold out. Sunday evening as well

The League Cup Final has always had a better atmosphere than the very corporate FA Cup. It’s a fantastic day out.

Most complaints come from the keyboard fanboys who never attend games. On the train last night to Hexham two Newcastle fans told me our away support had been the loudest of the season. I know who I believe.

Funny that, I remember Newcastle sending back the entire South Stand level 3 part of their away end for a Premier League game not long ago. Because of the reduced segregation it meant the sold out game was the highest Etihad attendance to date.

When it was announced their away fans on the lower tier cheered it ironically, whilst ironically not realising it was specifically because they returned half their tickets so we didn’t need to segregate that part of the away end.

out of interest i checked about a week ago and i'm sure it said it was sold out, yet the glimpse of the away section last night showed approx. what we would take for a league game. Maybe City sent some tickets back so they could sell them.

I personally didn't go last night, went the league game there and went up to Sunderland on NYD and truthfully couldn't be bothered trekking up to the north east again this season, especially just after Christmas. Our away end sounded loud on the telly, doesn't matter how many we take we always make a racket. Respect everyone who went last night. It's not cheap following City, it was just another semi final for us.

Pre South Stand L3 they didnt always sell out the bottom two tiers. No shame in that, we didnt always sell out every away game.

Internet plebs who have probably never been to a ground in their lives.

A lad I know is like this “empty seats blah blah blah” yet the last time he went to Old Toilet was around 1980!

No shame at all but they’re criticising us taking a standard premier league away end last night, when we’ve had a ridiculous amount of games recently, in a cost of living crisis, two weeks after the Christmas break, for a 2nd rate competition (albeit one I really want to win this year).

Let’s see how many they bring in 2 weeks time for a game they’re 2-0 down in.

How many will they get ?
