    Good to see this morning that David McNally has asked for supporters to tweet him any feedback, complaints and suggestions about the ticketing last night and moving forward. Hopefully the club will learn from last night that they cannot take our attendance for granted - we are very loyal, more loyal than many clubs fans, but we will not be taken for a ride. Be fair to us and we will turn up, wind, rain or shine.

    Good news, should see a more sensible price for the Villa game to make it a full house <ok>

    I would guess £20 - £23 for an adult for the QF.

    Spot on Superman,
    Now I don't do "twitter" so can someone add my name to a reply please? Basically saying what you've said!
    I will email the club anyway but don't have a specific email address for him, only to the boss lady and I won't upset her!

    I think the disappointment about last night's prices was it was half term. Make it really cheap for kids to go and let the next generation see us beat Spurs. I imagine a lot of the kids probably support Norwich in Norfolk, but the kids that don't could have adopted us as their club for the future. That's an observation I have anyway.

    Good to see McNally tweeting for feedback though.

    Well done David McNally!

    It would have been easier for him to have ignored us and it shows character and good personal management skills that he is going to listen to what we have to say.

    Good stuff. I reckon Villa should be about £23 per adult ticket.

    Ironically, revenue wise and assuming only adults attended, 16,500 paying £30 equates to exactly the same as 24,750 coughing up £20.

    The difference is the enhanced atmosphere, and incremental sales such as programmes and catering - plus the chance of a few replica shirts and club shop goodies.

    As mentioned, great that he is asking for feedback - the acid test is whether he will act upon it for the Villa match?

    They will get a full house for the Villa game whether they charge £10, £20 or £30 so they may as well charge £30 and make a bit of money out of it. I paid my £30 last night and it was worth every penny if only for the last 10 mins and to watch Gareth Bale.

    I was disappointed to see the £30 price for last night and voted with my wallet (sadly missing a notable win). Surely it is better for the club to have a full house with plenty of kids in spending their parents cash on half time drinks and replica kits rather than coin in more cash from less punters? Whilst I appluad McNally for asking for feedback given the draw if the prices do go down then it will be a huge gesture as every man and his dog would pay in the hope of sticking one over on PL and Villa and I reckon £30 tickets would still see a sell-out. If we get through then I don't think the club would have a problem selling tickets for the home leg of the semi so again any reduction in price would be an excellent and welcome gesture.

    if i was mcnally, i'd be getting the good-will back. i'd be pricing the tickets at a still fairly pricey £25 for adults to show the fans concerns are being listened to and make sure of a full house with maximum revenue streams.

    Hadn't noticed this thread, so I posted this on crowey's later one. Repeated here for info:

    "Anyone who listened to the Radio Norfolk commentary will have heard a recorded interview with McNally aired during the half-time interval. He acknowledged the criticism from fans, and if my memory serves me correctly, said something like: "obviously we didn't get it quite right this time and will be looking again at pricing". He also made the point that, since these games are now settled on the night, pricing has to be agreed with the other club. Never admits to getting it wrong? Well, last night he did just that."
