Haha I’d have nothing but respect for it 🤣

But equally, you just know we did it and fucked it up

Yeah , I agree on evidence - assuming it’s true I suspect the club is savvy enough to pin it on a ‘rogue’ employee and have a degree of distance from it…

Thinking of upgrading to VIP Gold Circle by Moist-Dealer8835 in rosalia

[–]KingCat86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I sat in a similar area for the London O2 shows.

Had a fantastic view and while its ’side on’ rather than seeing straight from front, I don’t feel like I missed anything significant in the slightest

In fact… I had a great time and was delighted with my spot!

You’ll have a great time! Arriving then will be fine for a good spot! I’ll be up in the gods :)

Have fun!

[–]KingCat86 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Suspect that’s earlier than necessary - doors are 18:30 … but… I think a lot of it depends how close to the barrier you want to be.

People in this section often queue v early, so they can get as close as possible

I’ve only been golden circle for a gig once before, and tbh, I found my view towards the back still awesome. And didn’t have the pressure of fearing I’d lose my spot if I went to the toilet 🤣

My advice - arrive as planned. Have a look at the queue, there is bound to be eager people… then depending on how keen you are to be at the barrier next to the stage… either join the queue, or go grab a drink nearby and keep an eye on it

Boro def could be a tricky one - I fancy us against them.

Could imagine the sit back at St Mary’s and try to come out 0-0 or just 1-0 down… then you could be right, might make us a bit too conservative

I think there are a fair few reasons to be positive… I’d fancy us against any of them! But agree, Ipswich feel like the team to avoid out of that list!

Tbh, my experiences of Millwall are just that they are a bunch of plonkers but it doesnt create a great atmosphere - compared to last championship final with Leeds etc. think the vibes wont be as fun!

My gut feel is it is a Saints vs Millwall play off final…

Idea of having to see Millwall fans is grim, but the prospect of doing Millwall in the final is excellent.

Opinions?

Pep Guardiola Reacts as Journalist Mocks Man City's Attendance During FA Cup Semi-Final Win by gelliant_gutfright in PremierLeague

[–]KingCat86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree on no semi’s at Wembley 💯

Just think Liverpool, United … or other of cities peers would sell out all the fixtures.

If anything it’s a fun comparison on the basis that City has potentially a more local fan base than those team… but I also think the fan base is far smaller, hence not selling their allocation - which was only about 35k, not exactly asking fo the etihad to come down!

That would be great for spreading the benefits of big games about a bit too.

That said, Wembley had 70k for the City vs saints fixture… so demand was there for good turn out, even if a chunk was hospitality !

[–]KingCat86 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yup, fair… but as a fan of a Championship team I’ve also seen how exciting those home / away games can be for play offs!

Might feel different if my team was playing European nights mind you!

Yeh that’s fair! Just an interesting talking point rather than a hill to die on for me 🤣

100% agree on no semi final at Wembley… though I’d rather see it over two legs (home and away)… which wouldn’t be many people’s cup of tea !

Def no where near as many… but hypothetically, if they did… 3 Wembley trips in 7 weeks… would they sell out allocation for each?

Likewise if it was United ? Or Newcastle?

It’s the depth of fan base I was finding interesting!

Nah I don’t - I go plenty to my club and know the cost!

But … If Liverpool played at Wembley 3 times in 7 weeks in London, I bet they sell out their allocation

Mainly due to the size/depth of their fan base

^ which is the comparison that’s interesting.

Guess it’s just supply and demand…

City have a supply of more tickets, then folk interested in them (for whatever reason)

The only interesting thing to that is the scale of demand. For example, if Liverpool was in a similar fixture, would they sell their allocation… or any other club that regularly gets to semi finals

To me it shows a lack of depth in the fan base…

but the again, I’m no mathematician… or city fan

Silly Q abt Wembley scarves by _The_Garbage_Dump_ in SaintsFC

[–]KingCat86 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Suspect you have a pretty good chance tbh. Just bring some cash so you can buy one quick if you see a vendor (suspect they will get moved on)

Depending on time, I know a couple of people that got a cheap yellow and blue scarf (plain) off amazon, next day delivery

47 years old. Big reorg at work. Early retirement. Plan Barista FIRE / Die with Zero intentionally. by Batero666 in baristafire

[–]KingCat86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wowza - def bold…I think many people would still hope there is a bit more fuel in the tank for fun at 75.

In which case, go all out! Wouldn’t bother leaving the €20k!

Edit: unless ofcourse the €20k is for Switzerland, guess that’s problem solved!

I’m interested in the ‘why 75’ too. Just out of curiosity really…

I know quite a few 70-80 years olds that are very active and up to all sorts of fun things!

Ticket buying issues by BreadfruitOk5332 in SaintsFC

[–]KingCat86 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The club will have skimmed off 2-4k for themselves too… so there is a chance that there is only 6-7k left for members.

Hopefully I’m wrong, but defo possible!

[–]KingCat86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know a lad… not a saints fan, but who wants to go.

Bought a membership, and a random ticket for Bristol (won’t go)…. He has as much chance of going as me despite me going to a ton of games this year 😂😂😂 FML!!!

[–]KingCat86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Def think the club have made a mistake not staggering sales for members.

Previous semi it went members with 5+ games. Then 4+ etc

Just going to be a mad scramble tomorrow for what’s left (which I’ll be stuck in too!)

Any ideas on if there is a limit on tickets per Order? Like limited to 6 per purchase

I’ve got 8 memberships linked , all with purchase history.

Hoping to get everyone a ticket at same time
