To be right, one East Yorkshireman's worth two of them North Derbyshire lot. As long as me and a dozen or so City players turn up, we'll be grand.
That's just 26,500 who bought from the club. Club Wembley e.g Tier 2 doesn't count in that number. However in your 33,000 or whatever it's counted.
The price differentiation isn't brought in to be fairer. It is done to achieve more revenue by allowing some people to pay less rather than not pay at all because the prices are too expensive yet stop the people paying the higher prices from paying less.
You would have thought that they would have been more intelligent with the block allocations. They could keep some blocks back from Wigan/Hull and allow them to be sold at the last minute to Arsenal/Sheffield.
I think the number of tickets sold for an FA Cup semi final shows how much fans in Hull have been affected by the recession. In normal times I would expect more fans to go to Wembley. I still think that the club should expand the KC. It's not like the prices should never be reduced. Why not reduce some prices and get more people in the ground and make more from hospitality which seems to be restricted by the facilities.
I'm sure that Papa Doc and his bloody name change nonsense is a contributory factor to ticket sales being down. Maybe we will be outnumbered so I'll do my bit by wearing 2 City shirts today. Come on City!
City at Wembley and in a semi for only the second time in our history and we don't sell out... Papa Doc has to take some of the responsibility for this, pre-name change I'm sure many more would have bust a gut to get there just the same as the people of Sheffield have but Sheffield is a club and City all going in the same direction. We are told the name is lousy and we can die if they want. It has an effect and the t*t is intent on perpetuating the rift. The guy who wrote about the Zulus today may be right, there is a (d)rift at City I'm putting my Lee Enfield in my boot just in case Wembley is chock full of bloody Zulus.
