It is limited to people with purchase history, that will probably affect sales

Looks like they’ll sell out then, as expected

Slow day ticket sales and interestingly for the preston game it may have been better opening one block at a time lol

The only "sell outs" we've had so far this season were boxing day and Leicester.
Don't see Maidstone on a Monday night having the pull really, even if it is the 5th round and it's only £15.
I think the max we can have with segregation is going to be 27/28K because i read somewhere due to another event taking place at the CBS one of the hospitality lounges is closed.

Wouldn’t mind giving them 6k but probably too late now
Yeah might aswell give them block 12 otherwise it will just be empty. Block 13 is enough segregation, hardly a high-risk game.

Which has happened a few times now. Happened at the Birmingham game and we had a whole block of empty seats. It's embarrassing.
Close the top tier and completely open the bottom without hospitality. Charge normal admission prices.

Will be funny reading all the comments from people whinging they can't get tickets when we draw a big team and can't be bothered to go to this.
I'm coming up from London for it - think it'll be a good occasion and they'll definitely be noisy!

It’s great to see really. That’s why the FA Cup is the best cup competition in the world.

It wasn't that many years ago they were in the league below us (2017-2018).

I think we will, it should be nearly a sell out

Weather permitting this will be my first came back since November 11th
I have purchased every home cup match on my ST but not been able to go. Wanted to get £140 deal for festa but nobody else would stump up, so had to settle for TV. Although TV is better than nowt you only get 25/30% of the experience can’t beat live footy!!!

Hi chaps. I know all Stones fans are very excited about visiting Coventry and I am sure the club would welcome any extra tickets as it looks like we could have sold around 6,000. I host the Maidstone United Stones Aged Podcast which might be of interest to some of your fans. The latest one was recorded two days after the win at Ipswich and includes an Ipswich Town podcaster as a guest as well as Maidstone's captain. I hope you enjoy it. We will be doing a couple around the game with the Sky Blues! Tune in: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1707385/...ch-stones-aged-fans-podcast.mp3?download=true

I’m not sat in my ST seats either - I’m taking a tourist from Italy and 2 Prem supporting team mates! Block 25/26 was the only block I could get 5 tickets together.
Frasers Group, Coventry chamber of commerce and others should lean on the club to give Maidstone the chance of another 1500 tickets. It makes commercial sense all round. More away fans will attract more home fans and 1500 more hungry and thirsty mouths to take care of means more revenue all round. Some may stay over using hotels and restaurants locally.

Bloody hell… some support from stones fans. I sort of hope it’s a great game and a few goals on both sides… with us coming out on top obvs. Great advert for non league and the cup.

Steve, If you're looking to interview anyone from our side there's a lad called Craig Danny who always good for a quote or two. I'm sure you'll get hold of him on the facebook fans forum if you reach out to him. If you do get hold of him please post it up on here afterwards.
