Marlborough Red Posted February 11, 2019 Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 Looking at the OS it seems the take up for home tickets for the 5th Round Tie v wolves is awful, despite excellent prices . Would have expected at least 20,000 and was hoping for our first sell out. Surely most fans can find a family member or friend to go with them at these prices. I'm taking 2 grandchildren and my Brother in Law. First time this season. Come on City fans - record the game on TV and get to the Gate and back them to get to the Quarter Final.

Spoons Posted February 11, 2019 Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 1pm on a Sunday just before half term isn't great. Add TV to that might just get to 18,000 with lots of wolves fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McNasty Filth Posted February 11, 2019 Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 As above, day and kick off time are the worst you can come up with when getting people into the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natchfever Posted February 11, 2019 Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 This won't be POTD surely ? Too much risk of non locals buying tickets as I daresay they will eat up whatever their allocation is. Presumably this game is 1pm as its televised ? I don't know how much the club makes on being televised, but that is certainly a good reason if the crowd doesn't reach 20,000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kodjias Wrist Posted February 11, 2019 Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 Its not a big tie for us like the Man City and Man Utd draws were. Would rather save my money on some potentially big away games coming up in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrumpylegs Posted February 11, 2019 Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 Basically the FA cup is just not a big draw these days. At the end of the day it's our 'b' team against Wolves 'b' team - and it's on the telly. Be lucky to get 15k I reckon!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you're not going to complain if some of the regulars can't or don't make this one Applaud the sentiment, though, and hopefully it will be a decent crowd with some decent noise.

Marlborough Red Posted February 11, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 Just to be clear. I'm a season ticket holder in the Lansdown . Been to both cup ties as well this season This one is a bit special so taking family as well. Hoping for at least 18,000 , Wolves will bring a full house so we need to really get behind the Team. LJ must pick a strong side possibly giving Semenyo and Palmer a first start together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
