Re: So the semi-tickets will sell out in the morning, and..

For the final, i reckon about 4,000 it will sell out at.

depends on OSC with their allocation, and if the club are shocking enough to actually bring in the cup scheme for an F.A cup final.

I'm not sure we have 25000 fans with more than 4000 points.I have said before that it's the same people at the away games all the time, they will have over 6K, that's less than 2000 fans, that leaves 23K so I think apart from a couple more thousand between 5-6K the people between 3-5K will piss it.
Might even go 2750 ish.

Dunno about your away games theory, there's hardly any points per game given. I've got well over 4500 points and have hardly been to away games in the last 10 years, mainly just the cup. So there could be thousands on over 4000 points.

Re: How are ticket sales going?

Got to city at 4.30 this morning 4th in the queue. The guy at the front arrived at 1am.

About 40/50 here as of 6.50am. Ground not open yet.

Good luck hope you all get a ticket. Sadly if the tickets are selling out this quickly it must mean that a lot of season ticket holders in my block, 232 who couldn't be arsed with the earlier rounds got a ticket. Early round cup ties usually generate around 23K supporters, there must be some way of ensuring these people get tickets for the big ones, ahead of season tickets holders who just don't turn up for cup ties.

There is, it's called the loyalty point system.

London- meet for a few jars.

Going down Friday, staying central. Staying in Finchley on Saturday. Would be good to meet up and have a few pre game beers with fellow blues. Where are people staying and anyone got any suggestions as to where to go for a few Friday and then Finchley area Saturday?

Re: How are ticket sales going?

Got a mate down at the ground this morning in the queue now and earlier there were two younger kids in front and the security werent going to allow them to buy without an adult (kids looked about 15/16) surely if you've got the points then it shouldn't matter what age you are. Fortunately some bloke put them with him and the security allowed that.

My mate has now just rang to say the security have been going along the line telling everyone there are only odd single £30 tickets available but there has been some £60 tickets returned from the players who couldn't shift their allocation and are on sale this morning.

the most a supporter could have from the coms is about 3000 if they dont do away games, thats unless like yourself they brought 2000 points(max) from maine road. people are usually things of habit so it a fan was not a awayer at MR the odds are they wont be now and will still to home and odd cup games. i think overall 4000 points should cover most of our season ticket base. another decent amount on 4-5k then as i say barely 2000 on 6k and above.

of course i could be talking bollocks but its just my stab at it.
