4,100 allocation and it seems almost as many sales criteria.
Plus added threat about possibly missing out on the semi and the final if you don't go. "Your attendance at previous rounds of the Capital One Cup will have a bearing on your eligibility for tickets in the latter stages of the competition".

I should be able to get 2 tickets quite comfortably for this which will leave me with one spare as my girlfriend won't be attending. Getting there however is an entirely different story. If anyone is going via Leicester and has a spare seat in their car then I'd be happy to pay my way. The official coaches aren't going to be an option for me but if anyone knows of an unofficial coach going my way then please let me know.
-
Good incentive to go. If fans have been to Swindon and Norwich, they should get priority if we reach the semi.
-
What day is the game on, sorry for the ignorance but i still don't know.
Suppose it will be a Tuesday or Wednesday night?
-
It will be my first visit to Norwich since the 4-1 midweek win in the second division in 1975. Gidman, McDonald, Leonard, Carrodus scoring. Looking forward to it.
-
Hope we sell out, 4,100 to Norwich midweek before Christmas would be impressive

I'd be surprised if we did sell out. Getting there and back is going to put a lot of people off on top of the fact it's so close to Christmas, not only with it's festive expense but with it's footballing expense and the ridiculous rip off at Chelsea.

Yes, the travelling there would mean booking 2 days off work, so I'll give it a miss.

Don't forget the 900 plus that went to Man City!

Yes of course

Any idea how many have been sold for this so far?
-
According to who you believe on Villa Talk, there's between 200 and 2,000 tickets left.
-
Well they can't be going that well, I have just had a text from VP saying I am now eligible to buy tickets!
-
I had that text - twice!

As I posted before, can't see too many going to this because of the difficulty with travelling.
-
I had a message from the club today that I am now in the qualifying criteria for a ticket however I bought a ticker on November 12! Tickets must be on general sale now.
-
I thought I heard somewhere that we'd almost sold out for it

As of 9.05 this morning we'd sold 2,130, leaving 1970 to go.

I was hoping that we would sell out for this game too. I would imagine that we will be taking over 3000 though, which is still decent to Norwich on weekday before Christmas. Looking forward too it !!!
-
They are now on general sale which suggests they are not selling as the club would have hoped.
-
5 out of the 6 blocks are now completely sold out, that would indicate a minimun of 3200 going with a week to go! Can see this selling out imo
-
Anything over 2.5k to there is a great effort.

It is indeed. I wasn't expecting us to take that many.
-
I have had to take a day and a half of work for this. Its going to be some mission from Manchester via Brum.
-
I've managed to blag a meeting in East Anglia on Wednesday so I'm stopping in Norwich on the Tuesday night. Convienient ;).
-
Block 5 has now gone back to having 'good availability', pretty annoying how bad our site can be at times.
I realise there will be returns, but going from 'sold out to good availability' in a day doesnt make sense.
Anyway ill be there, UTV

-
I've got a spare ticket to the Norwich game for sale if anybody needs one.
I'm unable to go because i can't get the time off work.
PM me if interested.
-
My lift fell through (twice) and as it stands I can't go :( If anyone's going via Leicester (A47?) and can offer me a lift, I have a spare ticket and will of course contribute to the costs.
-
be careful driving down the A14 to Norwich as it is very foggy here in Cambridgeshire.
see you in Norwich..
