Well if not we will be outnumbered 2to1because if it not City fans getting them the Arsenal fans will snap them up

Not sure that Arsenal will snap up all of them, but they should be easily in the majority. There will be so many more reasonably well off Arsenal fans living in or near London who will be prepared to pay for the premium seats, and they dont have the travel costs or the hassle of long train or car journeys to put up with.

If we reach the final then many more City fans will pay for premium seats because they otherwise might not be able to get a ticket. But with tickets for the semi final being so easily obtained then there's no real need to fork out for premium tickets, unless you really want the prawn sandwich experience.

Anyone with a season card or Cityzens will get one anyway (if we get there) with 29,000 allocation plus some high rollers going in Club Wembley.

No chance. The cup final is a completely different animal with tickets being siphoned off all over the place. I doubt 20k will go to real fans and demand will easily outstrip supply.
 
City and arsenal were each given an extra 1000 tickets last week by Wembley
So it shows not only are both teams struggling to sell their allocations so are the football association
Up to Wednesday night City had sold approx 27000 tickets

Especially as over the next two or three seasons Wembley looks like being the home ground for Tottenham and maybe Chelsea as well. Don't see how it could count as a neutral venue if they were involved.

Thought we had 40 + and 20+ on the cup scheme?

We have got 40k season card holders but I'm not sure how many more would go to the Final compared to the semi.

In contrast, I've sorted a ticket for the semi for a Blue who is coming over from the States who is buzzing for the game. Likewise, I'm excited about setting off to Southampton in a few minutes but I read on here that many Blues are losing interest and they feel ripped off by the Club.

Theoretically, you could have two Spurs v Chelsea cup finals with every match they both played, taking place at Wembley!

I'm also buzzing about Wembley just as much as the first time 76 can not beat it but city should give the fans that go to the semi first option for the final if we get there
 
Fail to see the logic in some of the excuses for not going.
Ticket price the same £30 in some areas as most premier league aways.
London a couple of hours down the road by train.Not too bad with coach as well.
Sunday day of match,far better for getting home than Saturday.
Sunday cannot go because of work Monday due to too much drink.
Don't get pished.
Go or don't go but any of the above should not be used as an excuse.
IMO.

Spot on M19 Blues. I'm glad we've got the better pubs on the West side of the ground too.

Good point about giving people who go to the Seni priority forthe Final. I agree but I can't wait for the first Bluemooner to claim they were on traction for the Semi and deserve priority for the Final lol.

Thanks for the update. Do you know if the 33,015 allocation includes the extra 1000 tickets? I was just trying to work out how many are left.

Thats much better than I thought,think we should sell out at that rate or get very close.
Understand the disconnect with the club issues mentioned on here and also costs but some are just cant be arsed merchants,come on Blues we are at Wembley.

I think the 33,015 includes the extra tickets given to us because the original quotes were of 32,000 for both clubs. City must expect to sell them, and they are still selling because the number of blocks available is dropping by the day.

Totally agree those that buy semi tickets, season ticket holders or members should get first chance on final tickets should we get there of course !
