        Sorry about that.

        Can you get a ticket from anywhere else?

        Comment


          Very unlikely to be honest. I doubt there's going to be any further allocation available through the club, so it's a case of touts and then you dont know if they're even real, never mind the bollocks of paying them the best part of a grand.

          Absolutely pathetic that any member who recorded all 5 previous games, doesnt get a ticket.

          Furthermore, the fact that someone who could have been to 5 cup games and no league games gets a ticket, while someone who goes to all the league games and has the cup games too, doesnt.

          Cross-competition loyalty is how to genuinely reward loyalty.

            I commiserate.

            I think its unusual that all the cup games were at home. With the semi at Wembley too, that has massively increased the pool of people.

            If we had an away game on the competition, going to all 5 games would have definitely qualified you.
            Oh I don't know.

              Yeah that's true. If they'd used Man Utd away from last season, i'd have had that recorded too. ****'s sake.

                What's worse, an under 16 who was successful in the ballot, can have an adult (who was not successful in the ballot) also get a ticket to accompany the under 16.

                  We got 2/3 which isn't too bad as the other 2 can't make it anyway.

                  Unfortunately with 6,385 tickets available to apply for and over 9,000 eligible applicants, we have not been able to allocate a ticket to everyone in the ballot.


                  I wonder how many ST holders there were with 5 credits...25,000 - 6,385 = 18,615...Hhmm

                    Is that worse? You can't expect them to go their own.
                    Oh I don't know.

                      It means some people who were unsuccessful in the ballot, still get a ticket.

                      Does one need to have kids now too?

                        Yeah, but you're missing the point.

                        Like I say, I sympathise with you. It's an unfortunate that the cup run fell the way it did. It's gutting.
                        Oh I don't know.

                          Yes, but its much cheaper to pay a tout than feed a sprog. A flawed business plan for a second crack at a cup final ticket
                          Football without Origi is nothing

                            I'm not missing the point, of course they arent gonna send kids on their own.

                            I just need to invent a child, that's all

                              I'd have less problem paying a tout if i knew the ticket would be legit.
