It will do in future if everything goes OK and they decide to increase the fan to seat ratio. Here it’s 1:1 but I believe in Germany it’s currently 1:1.7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wembley tickets: Period 1: Season ticket holders with 25+ loyalty points AND have attended at least one Carabao Cup match during the 2022/23 campaign. Tickets on sale from: Monday 6 February at 10am Ticket sales period closes: Tuesday 7 February at 8am Period 2: Season ticket holders that have attended four home and at least one of the away Carabao Cup matches during the 2022/23 campaign. Tickets on sale from: Tuesday 7 February at 10am Ticket sales period closes: Wednesday 8 February at 8am Period 3: Season ticket holders that have attended three or four home Carabao Cup matches during the 2022/23 campaign Tickets on sale from: Wednesday 8 February at 10am Ticket sales period closes: Thursday 9 February at 8am Period 4: Season ticket holders that have attended one or two home Carabao Cup matches during the 2022/23 campaign Ballot opens: Thursday 9 February at 10am Ballot closes: Friday 10 February at 8am Successful applications notified by: 5pm on Tuesday 14 February Period 5: Season ticket holders that have not attended a Carabao Cup match during the 2022/23 campaign Ballot opens: Friday 10 February at 10am Ballot closes: Saturday 11 February at 8am Successful applications notified by: 5pm on Tuesday 14 February Period 6: Members that have attended at least one home Carabao Cup match during the 2022/23 campaign Ballot opens: Saturday 11 February at 10am Ballot closes: Sun 12 February at 8am Successful applications notified by: 5pm on Tuesday 14 February Wording makes it sound iffy as there’s only been one away match. Personally think members who have attended more league cup matches should get priority over season ticket holders who haven’t attended any, but hey-ho… .

Optimistic Nut Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 I reckon it's about 60-40 in Man Us favour. The two FA Cup Finals were probably 80-20. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man u supporters are unwavering in their belief they'll walk this, I think we have a chance but I'm keeping my head down, I am far from confident, it might be 24 years but I'm still scarred from the 2 back to back no shows in the FA Cup finals. I am more confident than I was then, we are extremely hard to break down but Man u are on fire at the moment, especially Casemiro and Rashford and might be too much for us, whereas we don't seem to be firing on all cylinders recently. It's going to be a tough watch. Of course they do. They are Man Utd, they will think they will win every game they have. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sima Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 Was saying to a lad at work that when we were shite I'd softened towards Man Utd and will always begrudginly give Fergie credit for what he achieved but, by fuck, being where we are in the league fighting with them and being about to face them in a cup final in just over three weeks hasn't half opened up some old wounds from 94-04.

On Red Cafe over recent times, when they have been in Liverpool's shadow, they have been quite humble but now that they can smell success again the arrogance & entitlement is quickly coming back.

Shays Given Tim Flowers Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 I'd say it's 55-45 if that tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wormy Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 I hate that we're against Man U as far as my nerves are concerned. Another of the other 'top' clubs where we don't have as much history wouldn't feel nearly as bad if we come up short. But just like beating Man U for a trophy would feel immeasurably more satisfying to a bitter person like me, it will equally be more painful if they beat us. Its made all the more worse that I feel way more hopeful that we can pull it off against them than the likes of Man City or Liverpool. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geogaddi Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 I think that's fair enough , rewards loyalty and those that have been to the cup games, would expect anyone in the first three period to be guaranteed a ticket. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaydnNUFC Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 Me fatha in period 3, me in period 6. Personally probably got no chance unless they're holding back a limited number tickets for each scenario. Even then period 6 will likely have 20k+ people in a ballot for <2k tickets. Dammit.

bowlingcrofty Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 Seems as fair as they could have made it. Looks like periods 1-3 are all guaranteed a ticket as period 4 is the first ballot. Can’t see it getting past 4. I’m in 6 so glad I bought a Club Wembley one now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeordieT Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 Period 4 in reality is likely to include the majority of season ticket holders no? What isn’t clear is if it can stop and sell out then or whether they’ll hold back tickets. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hughesy Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 Been absolutely screwed by that - 3 season tickets and each has over 90 points, but all live down south so haven't attended mid week cup games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NUFCDoog Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 Heart skipped a beat reading that haha. I'm in period 3 and they mention ballots from period 4 onwards so I would imagine period 1 2 and 3 are pretty much guaranteed a ticket... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteV Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 Fortunately in Period 1. Realise this is a very ‘first world problem’ in terms of this match, but what’s everyone’s thoughts on which Category to go for? (assuming we get to pick) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sushimonster85 Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 Period 6 represent. Wonder if they're holding a set (obviously decreasing number) for each? If not I'd say I have 0 chance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
