Lanterne Rouge Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 If we do get beat, it`s Brum at home on the 30th, if we don`t it`s a 4th round cup match so potentially 4 in 5 at home. Can see even less paying the Leeds asking price now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was be an horrendous business decision if they were. Sorry Fordy, I really like you, but I can't help myself! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciderup Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 41 minutes ago, ChippenhamRed said: This would force Atyeo STH into other stands and pretty much rule out non-STH from attending as a result. Therefore, as a member, I disagree. No West Brom fan who wanted a ticket today would have missed out. Anyway I believe the usual restriction will apply as detailed above. West Brom did have to move STH's today to accomodate the City support but I do appreciate the point you're making. 15% of the present Gate capacity is only 2,400 so we should be able to give them that relatively easily I should think, unless the restricted figure allowed by the FL applies in the cup as well? EDIT: I see the answer is 1,400 from the OS link. Well done City (and WBA) for the £10 tickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It applied to West Ham last season and will apply to West Brom - confirmed in the article, allocation of 1,400. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t_b Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 I know tickets are gonna be about £50, but they were advertising their away tickets for Chelsea next week on general sale during the game. So dunno if their away following is that strong? Or they just don't want to spend £50 to go to London. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanterne Rouge Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 Be nice now if it was on TV as well. At a tenner we`ll sell out anyway so double bubble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shelts Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 Well done Bristol City for following the lead set by our Black Country rivals in matching prices. Hope it ends up as exciting as the second half today....pulsating! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChippenhamRed Posted January 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 Interesting that tickets go on sale to members and STH at the same time. This tells me that the total number of members and STH combined doesn't exceed the available capacity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Up The City! Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 In FA Cup games both clubs have to agree to the price of tickets. It's likely City made an agreement with WBA when the prices were set for the first game hence why there has been a pretty quick announcement.

Vincent Vega Posted January 10, 2016 Report Share Posted January 10, 2016 Great touch by West Brom for the game yesterday and obviously helped in selling the game out....but will City return the favour and make the replay £10..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob k Posted January 10, 2016 Report Share Posted January 10, 2016 I would like to think it's already been agreed by the clubs, It shows what the followings could be like with fair pricing unlike the robbing bastards at places like sheff Wednesday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
And Its Smith Posted January 10, 2016 Report Share Posted January 10, 2016 It's already been announced at £10 per ticket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy082005 Posted January 10, 2016 Report Share Posted January 10, 2016 Hats off to City for agreeing this. I would imagine there was an agreement in place between the club's before the game, that should it go to a replay, the tickets would be the same price.

Not sure that matters - away tickets go on sale to Season ticket holders before general sale and we rarely have HALF as many tickets as ST holders - I think it's more for time than anything else, they've got 10 days (potentially 11 if it's moved) and will want to get these sold asap fair play to both clubs with the pricing - fingers crossed for another exciting game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobArnold10 Posted January 10, 2016 Report Share Posted January 10, 2016 I'm not shocked it's a tenner, as gates are shared it's still been a fair pay day for us. Assuming a sell out the two games pocket us 190k by my maths (give or take) if we get TV money too that's a fair bonus. To be honest that would be about the same ticket revenue for us as a normal league game once you factor average season ticket prices into it.

View from the Dolman Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 On sale now. Season ticket holders need to login, then click your name in the bar across the top of the screen and then go to your reservations. Didn't offer me the option of loading to my season ticket card - only a choice of print at home (no additional charge) or post (£1.00). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bard Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 I think the website could be a little clearer about reserving your normal seat. You need to choose Bristol City FC Reserved Tickets rather than Bristol City FC Home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChippenhamRed Posted January 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 I was in there immediately at 10am. Availability was woeful right from the start; almost impossible to get two together anywhere in the Dolman or South Stand apart from the front few rows. Will be interesting to see if there are still lots of empty seats on the night, as usual "season ticket holder not showing up" line won't be an excuse for this one.

True. In this case you probably end up getting better seats by waiting, though it's a bit of a gamble not knowing how many will be available. I always prefer to get in there straight away for peace of mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
