And? Leicester didn't sell out Filbert Street in the PL all that regularly either at about the same time, but when they returned following a promotion at the Walkers they got 30K every week. Anyway, we averaged almost 21K at HR in the final few PL seasons and the ground only held 22.5K - so it...

Those people don't really understand the football club, or football for that matter, and I suspect many of them aren't very old.

£20-£30 fuel from MK? You driving a Hummer? Fair play for your commitment. Anyone who comes more than 40 miles to a televised game deserves a prize, a complimentary scotch egg or something like that.

Yes, it was for the area final, at this stage they got 15K against Norwich.

I doubt it is true though, it would have been announced. I imagine they would do it for the next round though and probably a few league games, would be silly not too. As a member you would get priority anyway.

There is a limit to how many they will give to one club though because of segregation, I think it is about 45K which is what Southampton took to the JPT and that is a record for a single club at the new Wembley. I've been at Wembley with 60K City fans so am confident we can sell 45K, but anyone...

The record for this stage of the competition is 15K so we won't beat that. That figure doesn't include away fans, although they are only bringing about 400.

We've sold around 8K not including Preston, but they won't be bringing many. Still a day and a half to go and then pay on the gate (around 3000 did that last time). Not sure if that will be repeated, but decent gate on the cards nonetheless considering its televised.

You could sign up for an account at thebox.bz - there should be a torrent available for download a few hours after the game, but to be on the safe side I would make a request on there and someone will almost certainly do it for you.

No, the CET is closed. I mean that last time, only the East stand was open, this time they are also fully opening the Lloydspharmacy stand. Two stands :facepalm:

The default position of most leftists when asked to explain why all communist revolutions seem to end in failure (usually following a popular uprising), is to simply say that they were not true to orthodox marxism - a cop out. Of course they weren't, there is not a single example anywhere of...

The crowd will be bigger than most league games this season so I imagine so.

Double the number of turnstiles for pay on the gate this time and another stand opened. No issues this time.

You do realise the 291 was as of Tuesday morning for a game the following Sunday? Haven't got mine yet, and I doubt many others have either. Will be 500-600 in the end, which is understandable all things considered.

You may have a point there.

Says the man who isn't going. Fine, up to you, but don't pretend that 'justifying your sky subscription' is a good excuse. It's pretty lame actually. Basically you cannot be arsed - fine, just say that. And 'tramp price drop'? Oh dear. I'm pleased you have plenty of money, I really am.

Clearly ;) Any regular supporter based in Coventry who stays at home when it is only 5 quid to get in should have a serious word with themselves IMO. TV? So what. Watching City while sat on your sofa is like watching porn when you've got the real thing upstairs.

Will be a very good gate Thursday, similar to Shrewsbury. Virtually all the casuals I know are going, plus a few who don't normally go at all.

Fortunately others are a lot more committed, and ticket sales are very healthy so far...

Standing at the back of the lower tier, I could see through the blinds into a function room behind where I could see the TVs. Showed a replay straight after the incident and looked clearly onside.
