Numero Uno Posted February 16, 2019 Report Share Posted February 16, 2019 2 hours ago, Bar BS3 said: Interesting how many people were reporting that they had loads of calls/texts from random “mates”/family/colleagues, all begging for access to tickets for the Man Utd game, yet there are still tickets left for this game, at superb prices. Where is their interest now..?! Yes, I know that Wolves aren’t Man Utd, but come on..! This is a potentially historic game, chance to reach the quarter finals for the first time in nearly half a century, against a team sat 7th in the Prem. The best bit for me is these mates, family and work colleagues patronise your support of a proper local team all year and at the first sniff of a massive game or that this local team of ours might really be as decent as we say they are.........they want you to get a bloody ticket for them!!!!!

Ohbasso Posted February 16, 2019 Report Share Posted February 16, 2019 If we end up at 23-24k I think that’s a decent crowd for a few reasons - Sunday morning kick off, that and Monday night must be the two worst times to have a game. We’re playing a good prem team but not a glamorous one and one that we regularly play in the championship so it won’t attract the casuals. Also it’s on tv which means a lot of people will watch it at home or the pub even though it’s cheap. So all things considered a pretty decent turnout imo.

Betty Swallocks Posted February 16, 2019 Report Share Posted February 16, 2019 Doesn’t look to be all that many tickets left looking at the online site. Certainly wouldn’t want to be leaving it to paying on the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YCbrs Posted February 16, 2019 Report Share Posted February 16, 2019 Think people are underestimating this a bit, only a couple of blocks with plenty of seats left and groups of tickets being snapped up regularly. Think we might not be far from a sell out with POTD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll give you the TV aspect, although ticket prices should still make attending the preferred option for most. However, 1pm has never been in the morning..!

I think they just moved their pitch across into that space you mentioned rather than rotating it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The impressive feat would be to talk a few pals out of it. Neither support city so yeah, it's a challenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marlborough Red Posted February 16, 2019 Report Share Posted February 16, 2019 My initial fears of a poor crowd were completely misplaced. Just had a look on the official website. Less than 1,000 tickets left in the City areas so looks like well over 24,000 and counting . Cant see many , if any, left for POTD by lunchtime tomorrow. Better buy now rather than risk not being able to get in tomorrow. The Gate will be packed as every ticket sold means bums on seats as opposed to over 1,00 empty seats not occupied by absent ST holders in Championship matches.. Cracking atmosphere for sure. Full strength team please LJ, we have a terrific chance to get to the Quarter Finals. COYR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got one a treat for the Man Utd game. Plastic tosser who does nothing but rubbish you supporting City but wanted a ticket. I said it would be no problem and leave it with me. I strung him along until two days before the game and then told him I couldn`t get him one. He`s not spoken to me since which suits me just fine.

If that is right that is fantastic, when you consider it is not really the later stages of the competition quite yet, it is on the tele, against a team we have played regularly in the last few years and a lunch time Sunday kick off. Well done the club for keeping prices sensible, this must have helped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No guarantee that all ticket holders will be there....they weren’t when we played Man U and Man C last season....but a brill ‘actual’ attendance will be enough .....great stuff!
