TIL 1010 5,115 Posted March 5, 2020 If all season ticket holders claim their seats and Derby or Man Utd take the full entitlement under FA Cup rules ( 4,000 as far as Carrow Rd is concerned ) there will be less than 1,000 casual seats up for grabs so social media will be awash with begging posts without doubt over the next couple of weeks.

Midlands Yellow 4,583 Posted March 5, 2020 That sounds fair enough as a casual. Will they take the McNally approach and go for the £30 a ticket or reward the 9,000 and stick at around £20. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Got to be £30 surely ? 90 minutes from a Wembley appearance and and the bonus of a chance to put a few quid in the coffers.

Midlands Yellow 4,583 Posted March 5, 2020 Yes your probably right, it’s a quarter final against the biggest team in English football.That Spurs game was an inferior competition and an earlier round. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Assuming it's Manchester United, which isn't a foregone conclusion, then £30 is likely to be the bottom end. Having said that, we only get 40% of the gate so that reduces the margin significantly. Prize for winning the quarter final is £700k. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ROBFLECK 133 Posted March 5, 2020 The Carra is not big enough any more...City Stand or Main stand , we need more seats...obviously!!! Whatever league we're in , the fans are loyal and will be filling the ground! ...Unlike you know who... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Matt Juler 198 Posted March 5, 2020 With a home league game the weekend before, I'd imagine quite a few exiled fans (like myself) with watch the cup game on the TV. Just need to hope it's a BBC pick and not BT Sport! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary 2,025 Posted March 5, 2020 An FA Cup qtr final vs Man Utd would surely have broken our attendance record (42k ?) ...had we had the stadium to accomodate it.

All 4 ties will be live on TV, so these times / dates will change for sure. If Man U win, the game will definitely be on Sunday 22nd or Monday 23rd as they have a Europa League game on the Thursday before. Sunday 22nd is Mother's Day... just saying...

I'd imagine they're waiting to know who we're playing first and when! Just kidding... I expect they'll go on sale as soon as we know when it'll be played i.e. tomorrow/Saturday and be on sale until Tue/Wed next week for ST holders. Don't forget a big chunk of tickets in the South stand will be going to Derby/Man U - they'll have up to 4,000 I imagine.

Many years ago someone in the ticket office told me that we could have sold 60,000 tickets for the game in League 1 against Leeds. We could sell out a 50,000 stadium in the Premier League against Chelsea, Man Utd, Man City, Spurs, Liverpool and Arsenal. West Ham would be close. In the Championship it's a very different story Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
