http://www.liverpoolfc.tv/news/announcements/fa-cup-final-ticket-news Only 25,074 tickets, all for season ticket holders. ****ing disgrace. 90,000 seat stadium and we get a quarter of that. I wonder how many seats chelsea get allocated. Oh well, there goes my dream of going to a cup final. I live in the south, so i can rarely afford (If ever) to travel to liverpool and back and get tickets to a game. I know season tickets cost a lot of money but people who have season tickets go to enough games already, people who can't afford season tickets or people who don't live near the stadium should get priority when it comes to games like this. Pretty stupid imo. Looks like i won't be going to any games this season, yet again.
That's absolutely ridiculous, wasn't there 35,000 for the semis? That means 10,000 people who managed to turn up for the semi aren't even allowed to come to the final. The FA have been a complete shambles recently and some of their decisions have been baffling. Disgraceful.
To be honest, I think season ticker holders do deserve first dibs on the tickets. I do also think it's a joke that we only got 25,000. Let's assume that Chelsea get 25,000 as well... That leaves 40,000 tickets left! Why don't we do 35,000 each?! Daft decision on that front in my opinion. Am I surprised? Of course not.
The allocation for each club will be the same in total - that's the FA rules. However, at the old stadium the equality was not always reflected in the 'quality' of the seats allocated. You have to remember that this is an FA final. Hence every club and association registered with the FA gets an allocation of tickets for the final. Then you have the infamous 'Members Area'. Hence the number allocated directly to each club is reduced from the semi. It's just a glorified tout fest!
The FA can change the FA Cup semi-final venue to Wembley instead of its traditional OT,Villa Park etc and they can even change its traditional stand alone day at the very end of the season. Yet the thing the twats are not prepared to change is the piss poor allocation of tickets to the two finalists,they give every county FA in England tickets and then wonder why loads of the tickets end up in the hands of touts and ticket agencies that charge well over the odds for them. The English FA never learn from past mistakes.
yeh..... once again. THEY ARE NOT TARGETING LIVERPOOL STOP ****ING CRYING. This happened last season aswell. My god, you wonder why you have a reputation. All this board is full of at the minute is LFC fans moaning about one thing or another. You are in an FA cup final, the vast majority of LFC fans will be unable to attend anyway so will be watching on TV. The FA is not on a mission to destroy Liverpool FC, the rules apply to every club.
UIR If you don't like the topics & opinions on this board you could always go away? You know, go to the happy happy united board for you know united fans...oh that's right there's no actual evidence on here that you ARE a united fan. Please continue to whine about us whining....
My thread is on here so as Mick in his wisdom decided to make it impossible to have cross board threads I have to come on here. I also forgot to say.....you are in an FA Cup final, stop moaning about stuff and get excited. Who cares about a few small things seriously?
The OP wont be able to go to the Final now, that's not really a small thing and understandably he's angry. No one is saying the FA has got it in for us or anything, the topic is a kick in the face to a lot of fans who want to make it to the match.
Season ticket holders should always have first refusal. Should any not make it for whatever reason then tickets will be available I suspect. Not many mind. Everton would of had the exact same issues as you, its almost as if they were the lucky ones reading some stuff on here. Just seems silly.
I love the fact that UIR has to feel the need to come on our threads, it shows that united obviously dont have any interesting topics themselves and shows that we clearly still get under mancs skin ... When we win stuff its 'Yes we've won something' ... When United win something its 'Yes 17 premierleague titles, 1 away from Liverpool ... Yes 18 premierleague titles the same as Liverpool' ... Yes 19 we've got one more title than Liverpool' ... 'Oh we must be th best club in England cos we've held the record of titles for 1 season' ... Try holding the record for 40 odd years like us and then come back!!! And whilst ur at it trying winning something for you for once not always comparing yourself to Liverpool, as flattering as it may be it does get tiresome ... We know we're a great club we dont need u going on about it all the time too and when u come on our threads and always compare stuff thats what ur doing, just proving that we're the greatest or otherwise you wouldn't have to always compare yourselves with us ... As for the FA Cup final, i'm just buzzing for it and can't wait, if we win it, we'll win it for ourselves, not because United didn't win it!
the entourages of all the vips and swindlers get a sh!t load of tickets. Pretty soon fans wont be able to see matches live except from a hotair balloon in the future.
Not ony that, UIR is starting threads on his board about our threads and even their smarmy asshole mods are chippin in
