How many tickets would be get for this?
I have heard 12 K under cup rules, but I may be wrong.

It's 9k. The usual stuck in the corner bit as for the league and then get the Upper tier behind the goal at that end.

I thought it was 15% of working capacity

Are there any stattos out there who know the most drawn FA Cup third round tie? It has to be us and United, surely.  It’s as sure a thing as Chelsea getting an easy home draw - nailed on.

It should be 11250 tickets but it won’t be due to some advice or other.  I reckon we will get 7500 tops.

Yes, 15% of working capacity is the ordinary entitlement of the away team supporters for FA Cup ties.  That can be reduced though, if safety considerations warrant it. Man Utd fans didn't take too kindly, just a few years ago, when Arsenal denied them such an allocation, so I'd expect an allocation of some  9-10,000 for this game.  The draw couldn't be very much worse for us really though, as United I'm sure will be looking to the FA Cup as their best chance for silverware this season.

It does remind me of that Wimbledon match with the fifth set going to a ridiculous amount of games as the decider. Suss.

We’ll batter those tossers anyway. OT probably won’t be full either but a few may come out of the woodwork to have a go at Gerrard.

Has to be fixed.

Annoying draw but what a stupid comment
My money is with TonyD - I have thought it for years
You can literally watch them draw out the black ball inside a see through container. If Derren Brown or Dynamo was doing the draw I'd have my doubts. Orrr are you guys joking and I've just made a right tit of myself?

At one time my ambition was to live to see us win the FA Cup. Now it’s to live to see us win an FA Cup tie.
Make sure you get your booster jab in order to be around next season.

About time we got Blackburn or ManUre again.

Sorry about that.

Numbered balls allegedly being drawn at random have been the bane of my life, causing continual disappointment for the last quarter of a century.
Every Saturday and Wednesday, and most years a fucking Monday in December.

FTF. This time next year I'll be millionaire and the Villa will have won the Cup in my lifetime !

I would love us to go there and win. Properly exercise a good few demons from the past 25 years: especially that horror show last 15 minutes on 6 January 2002.
