Seriously?

I could name ten U21s and I've not been all season.

Plastic fans ;)

(Do love a bit of "my fandom is better than your fandom" :p)

RCC/Burge - Dressed in green
Gadzhev - Shit hair
Bigi - Praying
Haynes - Ginger
Sordell - boggly (no longer relevant)
Yakubu - Brick shit house

Jones - Pony tail

Bonus:
Slade - useless baldy/cap bastard

10 with descriptions, am I worthy of my ticket?

Its because, for whatever reason, ST holders always get the option of 6 for cup games and away games. We're not the only club to allow so many. Personally I'd make it 2 per ST but the club do have a point when they say it would be unfair to change it now.

I might shout it from my rooftop. Although I live in a bungalow, so not sure if that will add or detract from the experience.

Wembley is different though innit? Old rules don't apply. Think it's a lame excuse personally. (Well I would)

We'll I'm a season ticket holder and far from thinking I'm special , I have spent most time thinking I'm a feckin idiot.
I agree 6 is too many , but as I have said previous, the club has tried to use its supporters to allocate the tickets.
Just imagine the best part of 40k descending on the 2 windows at the BPA.

Debatable
Isn't Jones's a top knot?

Without wishing to be labelled a ticketing bore (I've been called worse), one block the top tier has now become available for those waiting for the £20 tickets. Right on halfway too.

Yes the sales are to season ticket holders only at the moment.

The oldest trick in the book "you better hurry they are almost all gone". The home shopping channels all use this technique.
You can almost imagine the cave men "this is the last dinosaur bone, who will give me one of those shiny rocks for it?"

Yep. All these brand new City fans should be in attendance shouldn't they now.

Should make for a fantastic atmosphere.

And can someone tell them we play in a white with a shade of Blue kit also

They did not have a cut off they carried on when they saw the queue
Am told they were going to but the staff agreed to work on

They turned me away the bastards!
But if that's right then hats off to the staff in the ticket office, we're lucky to have people who care as much as they do when they're employed by a mob like our current owners.
(I still want my booking fees reimbursed!)

Nick. Please remove this comment as the poster has started his sentence with an unneccessary so (see things that annoy you thread if in doubt).

TMaster charging CCFC £4.80 a ticket whether bought through them or not. Robbers!

Makes me smile when people talk about 'new' fans. We have a big fan base. A very fractured and disillusioned one, but it is there. Every now and then a game comes along where everyone wants to go to. Be it a homecoming, a JPT semi-final or a trip to Wembley. The club have 85,000 unique individuals logged on the database who have bought tickets at some point over the past few years.

They'll be a few first timers, especially kids, but good. What better way to get them interested? I am sure Oxford fans had the same discussions when they took 34,000 last season, and then followed up with a home gate of 6 or 7K. It's Wembley, embrace it*

*but I do hope everyone who wants a ticket gets one.
