You’d imagine this will sell out. Aye it'll be 3200, just had a look at their last LC SF and Liverpool had the usual allocation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah man, memories of thinking we'd have a chance in the 99 Final because they'd just won the title and had the CL Final a few days later. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldtype Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 I think the best course for all of us is to just pretend that the cup doesn't exist until we actually win it. Why risk jinxing it with either too much optimism or too much pessimism. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mag_in_NZ Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 Right that’s $3k for flights to sit outside Wembley listening to the match on a radio, same as I did in ‘76……without the flight cost obviously Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, but will there really be 33k season ticket holders being able to go? Demand will be sky high obviously, but surely there'll be a fair amount of ST holders that won't be able to make it down to London for it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtype Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 I'm assuming not, but is there any way of knowing which part of Wembley our allocation would be seated in? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be starting my travels back home round the time of kick off if I'm going with our scheduled flights. There's no way I could do that man Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NUFCDoog Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 I imagine not all ST holders have loyalty points either, they'll be loads that go to every home game but never bother trying to go away. If you have 5 or more loyalty points I'd probably say you're pretty much guaranteed a ticket if you want one Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll be prioritising the Arsenal game and the FA Cup over this I'm sure. Apart from Antony and Dalot/Martinez coming back from injury it was an entire second string last night. Not shocking if you get Nottingham in the final but I'm sure you want us. I'll have to turn my phone off for weeks if we lose a final to Man U.

Superior Acuña Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 Liverpool (the only team I looked up) just did a random ballot for ST holders that applied, didn't apply points system for final. They got 32999 tickets total. 9% of that siphoned off to sponsors, players etc., 17% to 'Contractual supporter allocation; to include seasonal hospitality members and priority rights holders' and 74% 'general supporter allocation'. https://www.liverpoolfc.com/news/ticket-ballot-update-carabao-cup-final If there are only around ~32k ST holders, I imagine you're probably going to get one if you apply, regardless of your history, given that some won't apply for whatever reason. Sadly for me I passed my ST name to friend while I'm living away, and take it up when I go back for away tickets, which has never been issue. This time he's going to want it obviously. Regardless, I'd book a flight over if we won semi and try to do whatever it takes to get in with my dad (he'd get one himself). Obviously this is premature but thinking a lot now cos i'd have to plan fast and it's stressing me the fuck out Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have ST but I can't do away games (even if I wanted to now, I'm not sure I'd ever get a ticket mind). I'm sure the club will have to find a balance between ST holders, those with points and members. I've seen 32k season ticket holders, how many of them will actually want a ticket?

Probably all I have access to a ST so I’m sorted regardless (if we get there….) , but I do think members who’ve attended all cup games deserve just as equal a chance.

I'd imagine most with a season ticket who aren't planning on going will have loads of offers from mates/family/people they sit next to to get them one.

You lose any loyalty points if you give up your ST. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
