We don't decide the prices for cup games, they have to be agreed with the opposition and replays are generally fixed at the same level as the original game (as they were in this case).
Other clubs seem to be getting decent crowds for cup games. More excuses for our lack of support. Of course if we get to,a semi-final or final we will again have loads of people who can afford to travel to London and pay over £70 for a ticket and want to know why they can't have two as their lass or brother-in-law or uncle, who have ever been to'a City game, fancy seeing it.
I'd give up, OLM. Some people have been informed of these things umpteen times but still come out with this stuff.
Not criticising you for informing people of the realities of the situation, but those who don't seem to take in the information you have taken the trouble to. Inform them of several times.
I'm going but can understand why people don't go, not everybody is flush with cash especially those with families on low incomes.
Once the word gets out about Arsenal playing you might find the ticket sales pick up, the same thing happened when people fancied seeing us in Europe. Glad I got my ticket. I hope they aren't still doing that must pay by credit card on the day thing or there might be a few pissed off people at the ground
We still had people asking why they couldn't automatically have two. Same with the final. The thick sods seemed oblivious of the fact it is impossible to fo that. Once again you are missing the point. Fans who claim they can't afford a home cup tie suddenly can pay four or five times the cost for a semi final and fo it again a few weeks later for a final. Whereas Arsenal will have over 20,000 season ticket holders who can't get a ticket for a final.
There was plenty that said **** the semi I'll go to the Final. Mind you im not working at the mo so its the Forest game for me instead of Arsenal.
What do people expect? We are not a big club, our crowds are absolutely ****e considering we have been in and around the top 4 all season and we still only get 17-18k Price hikes and sky constantly ****ing around with our fixtures. Sick of night matches, rushing to get home from work to get to city. ive had enough of Sky messing with our fixtures
Mate I work with, a Scarb fan is coming with me. An emotive crap response!!! Cup replay against Arsenal 26 quid a ticket. What more incentive is there. A cup game in London against third division opponents we seem to be able to get 25000 for a devalued competition mind.
Typical Hull. Expect tickets for themselves, their lass and various relations for the game with a lesser allocation. How fo they think clubs with 30,000 or 40,000 and more pass holders go on for a final where you don't get 25,000 tickets allocated?
I think we did sell all our allocation as did Sheff Utd. Could have had a few more if demand had warranted it.
