I see the club are only opening the main stand again at present.

Was thinking I would like to go to this one, but checked online and it's just the main stand open. Do you think they will open the east stand for this one too at some point, or won't the interest be there?

Who's going? Who's already got their ticket?

I see blocks B to E (centre) there's no availability.

I think it all depends on Mondays result ... Beat Bolton might encourage people to attend ... Get a whooping at home lucky to get 1500.. Although there is that carrot of ticket stubs if we get to Wembley

Doesn't seem to be that much availability that's all.

Thought they hadn't been on sale that long.

Not sure whether to get one now or wait and see if they open the east stand or it becomes pay on the gate.

Well yes, I would agree, but according to the City website, whole blocks have been sold out.

Bit surprised at that. No availability at all from blocks B to E.

Terrible format for the competition this year which has led to crowds in the hundreds. It was purely a financial decision which I expect to be ditched for next season.
Putting all that to the side though we have a great chance to reach the last 8. With it being a free draw and only single games this season, there is a fantastic opportunity to bring a bit of excitement back.

Ah, well that was what I was wondering.

So they have blocked out all the middle blocks near the half way line then.

Putting a protective ring around Tim Fisher?

Well yep. Win this one and it is the last 8. Maybe that would generate a bit more excitement.

We sit in the Main Stand and bought our ST seats well before Christmas.

Okay.

Why block out the centre blocks though?

Would have thought that would be where everyone would have wanted to sit.

Because they are all the corporate seats Otis (legends etc.) - these are never available to buy online (or they are if you select the 'hospitality' option). No mystery!

Right. Never sat in the main stand before. So blocks B to E (F is legends anyway) are never available to fans, only for corporate?

Wasn't trying to conjure up a conspiracy, was just surprised we had seemingly sold out whole blocks of seats.

Truth is, the corporate section is far too big. Some of the best seats in the stadium and mostly empty every week.

JSBs sit in the East Stand, which hasn't been open all season for CT games. They open the West (Main Stand), and Otis was just making the point about the centre blocks which are all coporate. You can buy seats there through hospitality, but they range from £20 to £54 depending on membership status.

Are you feeling alright today cc4l? We're not talking about block 20 for league games - of course you can, we're talking about the West Stand for CT games!

You forgot Tim Fisher's throne and the pie kiosks with the shutters down. Other than that you nailed it.

Might just do that. They may open another stand on the night.
