Boooooo boooooo . If the tickets not used it don't register on the system so when you try to buy a wembley ticket they'll tell you to wait for general sale
imp:
Club could make a fortune by "overbooking" like airlines do.
Sell more tickets than there are seats available knowing that there will be cancellations and no-shows.
After the game(after selling 50,000 tickets), announce that only the 15,000 who actually turned up are eligible for Cup-final tickets based on stubs.

i am going to try and get there, and will also give the ticket away to someone else if i cant make it
As for the bandwagon comment, I worked out some time ago that I have spent over £80,000 watching CCFC over the past 12 years or so. I'll be damned if I am going to miss the one day in the sun !

How the hell can you spend 80,000 pound do you have a £500 bet every time you go to football
Yep that's exactly right, all ticket numbers are recorded on entry meaning anybody buying a ticket and not attending will not have a registered stub if we manage to beat Crewe and reach Wembley.
I understand people buying a ticket just to get a ticket for Wembley BUT not to turn up and support the lads is shocking especially if people can make it.
It's a lot of petrol, I'll give you that. Must be driving a 10 litre beast, lol.
Fly Over from Ireland with my boy and often take a nephew as well.
When we have paid for flights, taxis, or hire cars, we then have to pay for food and hotels.
Believe me, i was just as shocked. That also includes things like pre season freindlies, the Ibiza tourny etc.

Get to about 12 - 15 away games a season (havnt been to the Ricoh since Leeds match when Turner was injured), and like to get to at least 2 pre season friendlies. Dont get me wrong, some times we all fly over as a family and stay in England for the week, but the main reason was to see CCFC.
I am sure there are many that can dwarf me in terms of commitment and spend, but for me, a large part of my disposable income is spent on watching Cov, just wish I could get to see more, Thats why I love sites like this that make me feel in touch with whats going on

Well in that case all is forgiven. You must be minted, so any chance you donating some of your loose change to mark robins or bedworth united juniors, lol
it also includes stuff like shirts, done the odd corporate from time to time, its quite scary when you do the maths about how much we spend.
Even in you lived in Cov, by the time you factor in food, drink, transport, car park, programme, stuff from the shop etc, it all adds up !

The club have to make a decision somewhere and rightly they will give preference to people who attend games; it's not the clubs fault that people choose to live in different parts of the country.
Yes I know but if I buy a ticket i'll have to use it which it not going to be possible for me.
Exactly!!! You can't moan because you choose to live in Cornwall. I've got relatives all over the country and they are chuffed to bits city are doing well but not bitter because they are not going to a game.
Pros and cons.... I'd love to bring my kids up in Cornwall, it's a stunning part of the country, but on the flip side I'd know I'd have to sacrifice other things.
