All the ones I read are coming from anywhere but Maidstone. One got a ticket to see his first ever game. Makes my blood boil when I know there are regulars who missed out.

There always is, they’ll reduce the FZ area next season I think. Commercially, I think blocks 32-34 - the corner bit - will do.
There’s always an empty seat next to me which is in theory held by season ticket holder. Unless it was used against Stoke or Norwich at home, it hasn’t been used all season.

Sorry, I’m sure it’s here somewhere, what is Maidstone’s ticket allocation for this?

4800 think it was- should give them the 6000 now they have sold out

Is there a chance of that?

Depends on the safety squad. They have had 6000 before- Celtic, Chelsea I think there were a couple more.

Fair enough. Seems like they should.
Yes. It's a big day out for us

I've seen Maidstone fans on socials talking about buying them "close to the away end"
Sounds like a recipe for disaster/more ammo for the SAG
There should be a pop quiz at the turnstiles asking what WLADITT stands for

It’s already my new favourite song and band thanks to you lot.
But it seems new customers cannot buy home tickets for this one, so you’re safe from our 14 year old wannabe ultras making wanker signs at you.

They can't buy them without having previously brought tickets

It’s a ticket to Cov v Maidstone, not Willy wonka’s chocolate factory. They’d be easy to get with a bit of effort.
Ticket sales looking pretty good, its interesting the least take up seems to be in the famil stand. I think next year they need to up the prices as a lot bought at £50 and are not bothered if they go or not. They sold out straight away, i think upping the prices next year they will attract more peoople who actually want to go. I sit in there and there are people who come once in a blue moon.

i guess they can buy tickets for the preston game
i know you are a troll but how apart from having a ccfc purchase history would they get by the the fact that ticketmaster won't let them buy any tickets?

This isn't a fair comment. I know a lot ot people who are born and bred in Maidstome who are taking their kids out of school in Maidstone to travel up to Cov for this once in a lifetime fixture perhaps.
Being a Cov fan in Maidstone, but who regularly watches Maidstone I will be saying goodbye to my family near the turnstiles and heading into different parts of the ground. Not happy that this fixture is happening, but it will certainly be unique. I think Cov will smash them, but tbh would take 2 or 3 nil with Maidstone being in the game for the first half. Much better for the overall occasion than if Cov are 4-0 up after 25 mins

Find someone with purchase history to buy you one or buy one on resale. There’s always loads of tickets floating around if you know where to look.

yeah loads of maidstone fans will know city fans who will buy them tickets
it's illegal to put football tickets on resale sites without the clubs permission so they won't appear on them
outside of being ripped off for non existent tickets on twitter or fb they is really no way to do it, it's almost like the club and ticketmaster know what they are doing
How do they do that, drive up to Cov and stop random people and ask? When even Leicester and Wednesday fans failed to get into our end (might have been a handful dotted around, but didn't see any) it's not going to happen is it? Even if they approach people online, who is going to get a ticket for an opposition fan they dont know?
Regardless, with 10 days to go, home end will be close to full anyway.
David O'Day

that's my point
leicester claimed there would be blocks of them in the home end which didn't happen and they were on open sale

But, it's only Maidstone! Surely, the CC "B" team should be able to cope with a 6th tier club?

yeah but we've scored loads of cup goals this season and we want to keep that run going

It’s 2024 mate not 1984, the magic of the internet means no one will be driving anywhere.
If Maidstone fans want tickets in the home end (which they seem to, according to their posts online) they won’t be too hard to get is all I’m saying.
David O'Day
Well-Known Member
so they are going to find random people on line who have brought cov tickets before and ask them to by them tickets
okay sparky what's next on jackanory

Nah they’ll just join one of the cov ticket resale groups on fb and buy some. As I said, not hard.
No full first team as Doug wants quarter finals.

Not this year, I'm afraid.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
