Went and got mine today and when i turned up the car park was chocker full of cars. Even had secuirty blokes making sure a cue didn't get out of hand. Luckily i think i just missed alot of the rush, i got to the desk ready to buy my ticket and it was the big bloke with shaven hair from the dvd for the final at wembley(bristol city)....
Anyway i requested my tickets and glanced at the screen to see loads of tickets sold out for the seddon stand, he was scrolling over the stand to get a decent seat so its very good signs for the attendance.
I asked him how the sales were going incase i saw it wrong and he said 'they are selling very well' so potter fans get your tickets for the castle game and lets support the lads into an F.A cup win over Newcastle....dont forget there is always a club or two who knock out the big teams....its going be us and lets face it, if it was you know you would kick yourself for not being there!!!

No mate, Boothen End, block 23, row 31. Am still in Boothen End block 23 but now on row 26. Ah well, 'spose I'm nearer to the pitch, and you never know, might get out of the ground a few mins earlier than I normally do |

I don't think it'll be sold out, 6pm kick off on a sunday is not going to be popular on tyneside.

I sent my cheque to the ticket office and I received a call last night as I had overpaid (believe it or not) The chap from the ticket office could not have been more helpfull. Why do we always read criticism of the ticket office. I have always found them to be really helpfull.

I popped down to the shop today and passed a couple who were discussing tickets on their way out as I was going in - a figure of "22,000 for the Newcastle game" was mentioned. Make of that what you will.....

Telephoned the ticket office at 2pm yesterday, 9 in queue, took about 10 minutes.
Tickets arrived in post at London 10am this morning! You couldn't ask for better service.

14k will be the Stoke tickets and will not include the Newcastle tickets which are not on general sale yet. I expect we'll sell a few thousand more before the day - especially if we have a good Christmas/New Year set of results.
