I think he meant at home. We're obviously expecting pretty much fill the place, season ticket holders can have their regular seats, so the whole ground is obviously going to be open.
We will easy sell out because we had 11,000 who apply for tickets for the league game at hull. does anyone no how many tickets will we get?
Cheers pal, hopefully I get to go to hull this time because last time I didn't have enough away points. do you think you sell out? if you don't I think Sunderland fans will be getting in the home end like.
The worst thing about Sunderland fans in the home ends is you can spot the accent a mile off. If our police have anything to do with it they'd be removed and banned for life. ****ers
You'd hope so, we don't get an FA Cup quarter final at home very often, the last one was 1971. We got 41,000 at that one and though I don't expect that much demand this time around, I do expect we'll sell it out(mainly because only those who go will be guaranteed a Wembley ticket, should it come to that). As I'm sure you're aware, the second week in March is National Twat An Away Fan In The Home End Week, so I expect there will be measures in place to stop away fans getting home seats(not that it seems to work very well).
Philip Buckingham ‏@PJBuckingham · 5m FA push #hcafc's FA Cup QF date with Sunderland back to 2pm KO on Sunday 9 March, with Sheff Utd v Charlton at midday.
42,000 tickets were sold I think. That was the capacity then. Some might not have turned up due to having the flu, etc.
Hopefully they will be loads of titts in the home end pal. wish the game was on saturday at 5.30 kick off but Chelsea v Spurs is on at that time.
I've had a right chuckle at some of these posts on this thread. There's some on here saying they understand those who can't afford it and in the next breath saying there's nowt stopping anyone at those prices. I'm assuming those who are saying that are employed and can afford that bit extra to follow the team. I'm 60 in June, worked all my life and can't get a job for love or money, i'm effectedly retired but can't get pension allowance until i'm 62. I'd love to go and watch any match, League or Cup game but £20 out of what I get is a no no. People on unemployment still have to pay some bills and £20 is a big chunk out of the money I receive. So please don't put everyone in the same category.
The fixture changes aren't going down well with the Charlton fans. Sheffield United v Charlton is now a 12.00 kick off and there isn't a single train from London that Sunday that will get you there in time for the game. You'd think it would be worth a train company putting on a special, though I doubt they do them any more, what with us all being hooligans.
It is now Sunday 9th March @ 2pm on ITV. It has been moved by 30mins as BT sport are doing the Sheffield Utd v. Charlton game @ 12-noon. With Man City v. Wigan ko @ 4.05pm also on BT sport.
