Red Army 75 Posted August 24, 2017 Report Share Posted August 24, 2017 No I don't think it will sell out. But 10 and 5 pound a ticket will guarantee a decent crowd. Stoke are an established premiership side . And will be excellent chance for our younger players to showcase their abilities at Ashton gate. Also could have a chance of being on tv . Looking forward to this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kodjias Wrist Posted August 24, 2017 Report Share Posted August 24, 2017 If we can get 16k for hull we can surely match that for Stoke. Depending on how good our league form is at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shelts Posted August 24, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2017 Ticket price are crucial here. I'd expect more than the Hull game but as pointed out it will depend on league form . Maybe this time LJ will put out his strongest team as some fans will be once bitten twice shy. Stoke are well beatable and we have a decent chance to keep the cup run going Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted August 24, 2017 Report Share Posted August 24, 2017 Fairly dull and uninspiring tie. Low price will help bolster a bit, but little chance tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those players got us to the third round so imo they deserve to play in the third round. You can win as a football manager, if we play are so called stronger side and lose it'll be why did we not blood the hungry, energetic youngsters and vice versa if we field a so called weakened team. That side on tuesday night had the perfect balance of experience & youth for a cup tie.. roll on Stoke in the third round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
City fan 1982 Posted August 24, 2017 Report Share Posted August 24, 2017 Tenner an adult , quid a kid would be good. Lame draw stoke , knowing city it will be a commercial 15adult. 5er A kid. Come on city let's fill up the ground , an uninspiring tie. Price it sensibly. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
handsofclay Posted August 24, 2017 Report Share Posted August 24, 2017 The transfer window hasn't ended yet. There might be a chance Stoke will buy the best three players from each of the big six in the prem. Then the ticket prices will be increased not slashed and it will be a sell out within an hour of tickets going on sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will be there though, watching his new team play his old team. You heard it here first Ha ha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sglosbcfc Posted August 24, 2017 Report Share Posted August 24, 2017 At full price the crowd will be 10,500 with 750 from Stoke, if there is attractive pricing then I can see a crowd in excess of 15,000 with 1,500 from Stoke. Stoke are an established Premier League team now with some quality players so it will be a real test for us. I'm looking forward to it as we will be the underdogs and the pressure on them to progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would need a lot of convincing after last year's Hull experience. IIRC the bad run started after that. Can understand why the big Prem clubs put out weak sides, but it's a good chance to get a long way in a major comp for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted August 24, 2017 Report Share Posted August 24, 2017 Just a thought, isn't it Stoke who give their fans free away travel? So they might travel for this game even if they have to pay as it's not like they are shelling out every other week for travel and can't afford it, or they might miss it if they can't get their subsidised travel like usual. Or I might have this totally wrong, I'm used to that so be gentle in letting me down ha ha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted August 24, 2017 Report Share Posted August 24, 2017 Last round Soke were at home and beat Rochdale 4-0. They charged them adults £15, concessions £10 and u17 £5. I can't see them agreeing to us charging anything less. I thought this was expensive compared to Watford being £10/£1 plus £1 fee on each ticket.
