wembley, FA cup semi final V league one play-off in wales nope I can't see there being much more demand. are you the bloke that said because we didnt take 100,000 to newcastle on a week night for the league cup first round then we wouldnt sell many for liverpool in the fa cup?
This is the FA Cup Miles more interest. It's at Wembley which is apiece of piss to get to compared to cardiff.</p> But the principle above all is wrong. 2 per ST holder is FAIR.</p>
I did slightly underestimate demand for the Liverpool trip!......... but I think there will be enough to go round this time-only an educatedguess mind you
Can anybody expect us to take 30,000 plus to Wembley My guess is there will be 15 to 18 thousand to Season ticket holders. and 8 to 9 thousand to everybody else, Total highest 27,000. Whats all the fuss about. now the final will be a different matter.
Took over 30,000 to the Ipswich game Also this time I've got people asking me to get them tickets who didn't go back then. (They can ****** by the way)This is the FA Cup Semi-Final not a play-off. It could be another 96 years before we get another opportunity like this so anyone worth there salt living in and around Barnsleyis going to want to be there.
One reason why. If I can queue once I'll get four tickets and take the wife and her mother and father. (The wife and pop in law get to about 3 games a season each - the bigger ones or tuesday nights when my buddy's on the wrong shift. Neither of them went to the Chelsea match due to the ticketing arrangments i.e. not being able to sit next to me in my season ticket seat.) Likely hood is out of 7,000 ticket holders we'll mop up a good proportion of the tickets and demand including the more inventive "non season ticket holding regulars" I have to queue twice - sorry i'm not going to do it, only queuing once it's just me and the father in law - the women will spend the £40 on oxford street. We have to sell the best part of 40,000 tickets. I reckon as long as they do the ticket stubs thing four per season ticket holder will be fine as lets face it, there are only 9,000 people who go regularly anyway and many of the irregulars like the wife will be mopped up by season ticket holders. When there were 6,000 tickets I thought one per season ticket was right. When there were 18,000 I thought two. Now there are likely to be 40,000 I reckon four is reasonable.
There will be a demand for more than 30,000 I know plenty of Leeds, Wednesday, Rotherham fans all saying they are coming down if they can get a ticket. The interest in this will be much higher than either of the play-off finals, by far. Get ready for ticket fiasco number 3.
