Quoted from Maringer
It's the farthest away and most difficult to get to by some distance, especially with the trains as they are at present. Fulham a bit easier to reach than Brighton, all the other quarter-finalists a lot easier to reach. After the two Manchester clubs, it is the team we're least likely to have a chance of beating and we won't even be able to get enough tickets for fans that do want to go.

That's a crap draw for me all day long.


How do you reckon that we won’t be able to get enough tickets for those who want to go?

The Falmer Stadium is smaller than the St. Mary's so a lower allocation. If we could take over 4,000 for a midweek game, I'd have thought we'd be able to take a lot more than that to a weekend game in our first quarter - final for 84 years.

The only issue might be Mother's Day affecting numbers if the game is played on Sunday as expected.

Seems the usual allocation is 3000. Guess that could be a bit short of demand. Maybe they’ll make more available.
I mean, the cost, the distance, the time and effort and hassle - our fans are astonishing.
There is a bit of me that would’ve loved to pack Bramhall Lane. Or BP, so I get what you’re saying.

Liverpool got 4,815 in the 4th Round tie.


I've wasted my life in black and white, a pathetic act for a worthless cause

Just had a look on their forum and they’re already talking about Wembley allocations & ticket prices.

Fair enough they’ll probably beat us, I just hope we snap a few legs in the process. Always disliked their fans, glad we sent them down in 02/03.

The allocation won’t be enough for demand, I reckon there will be 7 or 8000 after tickets at a guess, maybe even more.

I recall another club doing the same before playing us in a knockout game....

They have to give us 4500 minimum as per FA rules.

That means that not even all ST holders are guaranteed a ticket.
