Maidstone have sold out their full allocation which is a fantastic effort. As a few posters have already mentioned, give them the whole end.
Maidstone Tickets (18 Viewers)
- Thread starter SkyBlueSoul
- Start date
We will come in party atmosphere. We will mostly be chatty non league fans enjoying the occasion because, despite the initial 'we didn't draw man city' reaction we are really looking forward to coming. I keep repeating it but I used to watch us play in front of 30 people in Kent County League division 2. Now, for the second time this season we are off to a big club, a 25k+ crowd and 5k away fans. I don't support a big club plus Maidstone. I just support Maidstone. This is dreamland stuff.
PS we can play Man C in the qtrs
Please do. We can get them sold. Cup fever is in full swing Maidstone
Yes. Give us 6k. If you can't sell yours we can do that as well. We are non league so can live with no segregation. As at Ipswich, you are going to get pockets of ours in your end of the ground. We just wanna see our team grace (or not) a big ground again.

to be fair, keep out of singers corner, and wouldnt be an issue - we are not playing leicester we are playing maidstone, and even if the 100/1 chance comes in = nobody will deny them their moment

With the potential money involved with getting thru, one game from wembley etc. I’d imagine we’ll be as strong as is possible.
It’s a one off game tho, anything can happen.
As Greavsie used to say, it’s a funny old game

Great showing from Maidstone, hats off to them for selling out on a Monday night. I've got my usual seats, my mate is driving so I can get on the beer. Hopefully we can shift a few more in the next 10 days and make it a good atmosphere.

Should go on general on Monday, Thursday-Sunday is plenty of time for those that have bought before to decide to go
Give Maidstone the 6k and they'll sell those within the hour
I can see this selling out for definite!

I don't think it will go on general sale, the purchase history is there to prevent Maidstone fans buying in the home end.

Surely it's full of season ticket holders?

Yep fair point, maybe change so you have to have a purchase history or CV postcode then?

It’s always going to be hard to get kids there for night games with school etc.

Because the ticket prices are the same price as other areas of the ground.
People will have moved seats.

Why are people assuming people aren't up for this!?
There will be more home fans for the Maidstone game than the Preston game a few nights before, I promise you.
This is selling well, already. There's no rush for people to buy. We sold about 5000 on the day for Sheff Wednesday.

Whove not purchased their tickets
I think the problem is these events are booked at the CBS way in advance, same with the Blues game and then the fixtures get changed for TV and there is nothing the club or CBS can do. This game should be played on the Wednesday and was only changed to Monday for ITV.

Monday night not great for taking children especially if you're travelling from far afield as I am. I can't take my son and wanted a ticket for my brother so have to go elsewhere in the ground - think there will be some gaps in the FZ for this one

Absolutely and we would be crazy not to start with a strong team. Last year against Wrexham, and previous upsets, show that if you don't take such matches seriously you will more than likely come unstuck. I don't think Robins will take that risk this time.

Shame that our fans don’t seem to be able to get up for a very winnable 5th round FA Cup tie. Especially given how much we love to bang on about being the ‘best fans in the league’ on social media.

Another comment like this. I don't get it! We've already sold more than we had done for the Wednesday game the night before.
There will be over 20,000 home fans.

And I thought the crowd at Wednesday was poor too given how cheap the tickets were and how winnable the game was.
Club our alleged size should be selling out these games with the tickets at the price they are and the performance of the team. Just a sick of reading our fans giving it the billy big bollocks on social media and then not turning up. Twitter and the match thread on here for the Wednesday game seemed to have more people moaning about not being able to find a stream than actually talking about the game.

I get your point but we got 20,000 against Sheffield Wednesday on a game with very short notice.
In comparison, Southampton (who sell out all home games) got 17,000. Sheffield Wednesday had 14,100 against us and we had 4000 there.
This will near sell out. There's zero rush to buy a ticket, as with the Wednesday and Oxford games which both sold well in the final days.

I hope you’re right. Really want to see a big crowd for this one.

Apparently loads of single seats generally available - but can't be brought due to purchasing restrictions - EG, can only buy adult ticket if purchasing a child's ticket.
