Cup Final tickets
Was talking to a Man City fan yesterday, who's a season ticket holder at the Council house, but can't get a ticket for the final for love nor money, seems she ain't got enough away points to get one. Its long been a bone of contention, no matter who's in the final, that the ticket allocation is a joke, more so for the bigger clubs like City United Arsenal Liverpool who have such a huge following. it seems that each club only gets 25000 each with 40000 going to corporate outlets, what a joke, these games are for supporters not some nerd who knows sweet FA about football and is only their for a jolly. Its become more significant since the new wembley open and its plain to see the Jolly seats which are usually empty all the second half. Having said that back in the sixties the ticket allocation for each finalist was only 13000 with 74000 going to the hangers on, maybe someday they'll get it right, but I don't think it will be anytime soon. Rant over.

Re: Cup Final tickets
As always there are tickets knocking about.. but we are talking £400-450 for a Man City seat and a bit less for Stoke.. the thing that gets my back up is that someone somewhere can by blocks of seats at face value, and then sell on at a massive profit.. it's the same for any major football match.
