homeagain 0 Posted January 29, 2012 Noticed that a few teams playing at home have increased capacity for away support in cup matches...how would that work at Carra Rd Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TIL 1010 5,246 Posted January 29, 2012 For FA Cup games the away side can claim up to 15% of capacity which could mean relocating season ticket holders in the Jarrold Stand and therefore virtually zero casual seats on sale for this game if Leicester take their full entitlement of 4,000 seats.

shefcanary 2,950 Posted January 29, 2012 Would this reduce the need for wasted seats for segregation purposes? As I mentioned on another thread this could help to attract the biggest crowd to an all seater Carrow Road. Ironic that the all time ground record was also against Leicester in a 5th round FA cup tie back in 1963! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DDD In The Fine City 1 Posted January 29, 2012 I didn''t think season ticket holders get there seats for the cup games??? Dont super members have a week to get tickets before season ticket holders can buy them??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lord Horn 0 Posted January 29, 2012 Season ticket holders get first shot at buying their seats for Cup games, then they get offered down the food chain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
norfolkbroadslim 225 Posted January 29, 2012 For home cup games and play-off matches season ticket holders get priority. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
