[2024/25 League 1 Champs?]

well I assumed that, and also then saw this…

but to be fair it’s also then got City v Chelsea the same day so maybe not

Am I making it up… but are we classed as the home team and play in Sky blue ( eg if it was v Man City we would be in our home kit) and we get the choice of dressing rooms!!

 

[letsallsingtogether]

Why, they all live in London

Forgot about that

 

[Flying Fokker]

Day to be decided?

We’re playing the Reds, I guess we could piss them off and have a new semi final kit?

I'm guessing both the dressing rooms at Wembley are pretty nice tbf

What are you on about?

back in the 90s in their Fergie era, those cunts used to basically take over coventry in town in the pubs and in the ground in our sections. Back then they had a huge amount of glory hunting cunts who were very entitled as Man Utd had just won their first league in 25 years so they all came crawling out the woodwork.
The same will happen now, London will be taken over by them everywhere that weekend. No other fanbase would have been like that, certainly not Man City.
I wanted Liverpool to win, as in my lifetime never had any issues with them by comparison.

Old enough to remember 11,000 City fans having a ball in front of an otherwise silent Old Trafford in 2007. Were you there that night as well, or too busy trawling other teams' forums and bigging up Man Utd?

No, as i was banned at the time

Singing "You're getting sacked in the morning" to Fergie remains one of my all-time favourite football memories. Real pleased with this draw, Saturday game against a team we could actually have a go at. Exciting times ahead!

 

[HerneBayGaz]

I thought that straight away

I had to pay £300 to goto play off final will probably be the same this time around

Disgraceful
Any of our fans purchasing tickets. Some sort action should be taken. But I don't know what they club could do.

 

[covcity4life]

Sell out to ST holders and then offer ST holders a second ballot to keep the plastics out…

I was thinking this. If any tickets remain give st holders a chance to buy additional.

But unlikely. Don't think it's ever done like this?

 

[bigfatronssba]

well I assumed that, and also then saw this…

Surely it won’t be a 3pm kick off?

 

[SBT]

No, as i was banned at the time

Any chance you can ask them to extend it?

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

There hasn’t ever been a need. But the last thing I want in our first semi final since 87 is to be next to some plastic glory hunting twat

 

[bigfatronssba]

Season ticket holders then anyone with 200+ points, then second ballot to those same groups

 

[messiahrobins]

Any chance you can ask them to extend it?

Are you a United fan? Or are they your second team?

 

[fatso]

Wright and Simms will cause havoc against their defence.

Everyone hated Utd in the 90s. There was no special City Utd rivalry. And that was when they were the Man City of the day.

 

[stevefloyd]

We beat them in 1987 so when we beat them again it will mean we will get at least £2 million plus sponsorship tv gate receipts ...bring it on

 

[2024/25 League 1 Champs?]

Day to be decided?

Chelsea and Man City both have games in the week before, Tuesday and Thursday nights I think.

It would make sense for them to have the Sunday for the extra day recovery

 

[HadjiChippo]

Surely it won’t be a 3pm kick off?

Last season both were 16:30/16:45 KO I think

It will be the smallest allocation we've ever had at Wembley, at a time when we've had more ST holders than ever. It'll be as close to die-hards only as you're likely to get (until the final)

 

[BodicoteSkyBlue]

I’ll take that. All Sky Blue final

I have hated them all my life in fact even before I was born

 

[Nuskyblue]

Think both sat and Saturday games are after 4pm
Maybe 5:15 and 4:15 for international TV

Their fans will be c*nts trust me. Man City fans are much less hostile.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

We’ll still have 15,000 to sell aside from ST holders

 

[Gynnsthetonic]

Let's fucking do these glory fan cunts

Already united fans in cov asking me for help getting a ticket

They've got no fuckin chance, every Coventry fan will want to see Coventry City vs Manchester United at Wembley

 

[Sbarcher]

As Diallo got sent off will he miss the semifinal or standard league games?

 

[SBT]

Are you a United fan? Or are they your second team?

I'm not the one making up stuff about them outsinging and outnumbering us while the whole country roars them on? Let me know if you need help getting a ticket anyway.

 

[Happy_Martian]

Deep breaths.....

IF Man City win the league (still a way off) and we somehow manage to get past United, regardless of the score in the final,

WE WOULD BE PLAYING IN THE EUROPA LEAGUE NEXT SEASON

How f**kin' mental is that ?

 

[oscillatewildly]

Any season ticket holder found getting tickets for Utd fans should be shot out of a cannon

With no landing net on the other side of the Sowe.

 

[SkyblueTexan]

They used to say Man U always beat us whenever they won the FA Cup. Then we beat them en route to our famous FA Cup win. They can be beaten. We have nothing to lose and no reason to be afraid.
