I'm getting bored checking for point & date information for tickets.
Does anyone know when MCFC will get off their arse and advise when we can apply?

Can't help you with the points & dates but heard from our branch chairman today that we have been allocated 13500 tickets. Assuming Chelski get the same, that leaves around 15000 for the FA as Villa holds just short of 43000

I can't understand why this isn't being held at a bigger venue?

Can only assume that it's back to the old school FA semi final venues of London v North? Can't play at the Swamp so this is the biggest option that's half-way for both sets of fans to travel?

Is it not something to do with the Olympics?

They took the piss last year and only started selling tickets like 2 weeks bedore the game. I'll be rather annoyed if I can't get a ticket for my son. It doesn't look likely with 13,500 tickets though.
I am looking forward to a trip to Birmingham though, long arse drive to wembley and it is getting abit boring now.

All respect to Salford City, but your chairman has take a quote of Bluemoon forum and misread it, he quoted 13,581 the post was Chelsea have received this number not City. On the Chelsea website they also state they have the complete Holte End and part of another stand. The Holte End alone holds 13,400 so Chelsea maybe holding tickets back for there corporate. It may also be we only receive 13,500-14,000 but he should not quote until City confirm our allocation.

As in "they refused to serve you", or "you refused to drink any more"?

As in i refused to drink more as i was swaying like a really swaying thing, i think the pop up bar outside TESCO didnt help.

Got my 3 on Thursday so really pleased. I was surprised by how many decent seats were left. Hopefully todays win and a signing before then will ensure there is a full house.

Charity/Community Shield is a glorified pre-season friendly and I won't be going.

How many points have you got? You can buy tickets if you have 3500 today.

Has it sold out yet?
After all the moaning about the venue being smaller than Wembley I would have thought the tickets would have been snapped up pretty quickly!
