BTsport have been in touch and are v interested in kcic plan for the Arsenal game, details of plan are at www.keepcovincov.weebly.com. It looks like we can get banners and signs produced too so people don't have to print off their own. As well as banners plus holding up signs on 35 and 61 mins, still really want to do sisu and FL office beforehand (proving a bit of a logistical nightmare) but we are getting bookings for kcic coach which will leave Cov at 1.45pm to call at sisu and FL first - price £14pp and book by email to: lewis_w@live.co.uk
Let's hope SISU's ticket allocation scheme isn't hindering the protest. They're more or less picking which of our fans they want at the ground on the day. We all want to watch our team in play its City though don't we?

Jeez....no they're not. 5000 tickets. even if all STH take their full allocation of 4 each (which they won't) There will still be thousands of tickets available....
There are a tree full of sticks to hit Sisu with.....this is not one of them.

Best thing to do now is sell it out and make sure BT Sport are aware that SISU refused the extra tickets so they can mention it. A comment like "5K Cov fans here tonight but they've taken more than that to other away games despite only averaging 2K at home. Would be more here today but their owners refused to sell the extra tickets.". Won't really achieve anything but nice to highlight how badly the club is being run.

Totally agree.....Season ticket holders have always had first option of tickets just this time they can have 4 each.......We would never take 8000 on a Friday night and live on TV....so really cannot see why people are complaining.....apart from the fact its just a moan at Sisu!

Oh, get a fucking grip.
fa cup rules on tickets
you are allowed up to 15%
you tell the away team how many you want
if this is above how many they are happy to freely give you - then you have to pay for the rest whether or not you sell them
so if we took 9000 tickets and only sold 5000 - sisu would have to pay £1m to Arsenal
this is why we did not take the extra allocation

Great work Michael.
Have you worked for the ccfc board in the last 20 years lolso if we took 9000 tickets and only sold 5000 - sisu would have to pay £1m to Arsenal

Hopefully you're right. I don't know the ins and outs of the what tickets are sold to who on what day because, like many, I cancelled any contact I had with the club.
Do they still have sales to members and those who attended home games to come? And how many tickets are they going to allocate to those people? (I heard it was 4 for each ST holder)
Looks like you may be right after all - by the looks of it there won't be any/many tickets going on general sale - season ticket holders, members seem to have bought a lot - although I think those fans whon have got away stubs have been allowed to buy tickets today so it won't be all the Shitfields devotees and their mates at the game.

How did SISU know we wouldn't sell the 9000 given they have only been on sale to ST holders to date? Selling out last time we played there, also a night match and in a more minor competition, would give an indincation there is at least a chance the demand would have been there. Had they run the sale in a more effiencent manner they would be able to make a more accurate prediction on the possibilty of selling the additional tickets.
Fair play to BT Sport too, their coverage is good if you can stay awake listening to Michael Owen.
