Bradford away- biggest game in years...

[Man Friday]

We can request 15% so that is about 3750 tickets

Sunderland had 4000 so it is doable in the ground (Bradford can only refuse a request for 15% in an FAC game on safety grounds but the precedent has been set with Sunderland

Will RFC want to risk having to take 4000 tickets and not selling them (but having to pay for the lot) or will they go for the safe option of taking 1800 which is the TL Dallas Stand, used by away fans.... this is even before the usual points debacle... I'm happy to be proved wrong though RFC if you are reading this..

This is exactly what happened 4 years ago against City in the QF. Surely they've learned their lesson?

What is exactly what happened...? The last time we made the Q/Fs of the F.A. Cup was 5 years ago home to Villa on 7 March 2010 (my 50th).

[Man Friday]

Obviously I want us to win but if there's one team we have to lose to, I'm delighted it's them.

Such a good draw for both clubs. They better fcuking put it on TV.

Think all 4 QF's are on either BBC or BT Sport ftr...2 Saturday & 2 Sunday....lunchtime and late afternoon..

Of course.

[Old Biscuitman]

For any supporter with memories of Phil Parkinson this is a miracle draw, almost regardless of the SF prospect. We can't lose.

[From Despair To Where?]

i've been waiting nine years for a "home" game and the circumstances really don't get bigger than this. The one team left in the draw that i'd be least pissed off to lose to but i really don;t want to lose with the carrot of a Wembley Semi final dangling.

Evening guys.

You'll get between 4,000 and 4,500 depending on segregation which I can't see being a massive problem. It gives you one of the stands down the side of the pitch.

Looking forward to the Phil Parkinson derby already.

Which side of the pitch is it, Mr Bantam? The sources I can find state only the TL Dallas Stand behind the goal is used for away fans, which of course won't be case here. Is it going to be part of the two tiered stand on one side or the single tiered structure on the other?

Can't wait for the Phil Parkinson derby either.

WTF did this get moved to club policies for?

It's the side from which the TV pictures are shown.

This stand.

As I said on the draw thread, we will easily sell our allocation before anyone below 1,000 points gets a look in. There were 24,010 at the Sunderland game....capacity is 25,000...whatever allocation we take will be snapped up and those of us who miss out won't have the option of sitting in the home end as we did at City!

Don't count on getting tickets in the home end. Although our official capacity is 25k there are small portions of our ground that don't have the necessary safety certs so the Sunderland game was actually sold out.

I know, I said that. The City in this case being Man City in 2011.

Ah yes, the single tiered one. Thanks for that by the way.

Don't get to excited. Wolves away in the Play-off semi finals back in 2003 was arguably one of our biggest and most important ever games at that time, and we failed to sell our allocation, much to the amusement of the home fans.

Had 3 seasons in the PL since then.....It'll sell out quickly.

Ah, fair enough. Just wanted to clarify in case people saw the difference in the two figures and assumed there'd be spares available.

[loyalroyal4life]

Looking forward to this one, although looks like I may miss the semis when we make it

[UpThePrem]

I live in Yorkshire and not a member, how easy will it be for me to get a ticket do you reckon?

Honestly, unless you know someone with Royalty points that isn't going and use their ticket.....no chance!!!

The pitch was very shoddy based on the highlights vs. Sunderland. How are we in the mud?

[Sutekh]

Going to be a traditional old fashioned cup tie and we are going to get hit by a whirlwind from the kick off.

Pitch up there is very bobbly apparently so they're obviously going have the advantage on that front.

Really hoping SC is on the ball over this and ensures our lot are suitably wound up so they know exactly what to expect from Bradford esp. Stead, Clarke, Nott, Morais and McArdle.

Also I reckon we'll get the midday Sunday slot so should be good travel wise for us all.

[loyalroyal4life]

Wonder how much tickets would be... need to factor it all in along with a night in Leeds overnight
