Bradford City put Arsenal cup tickets on sale
2:10pm Saturday 10th November 2012 in Bantams
By Simon Parker, Bradford City Reporter
Arsenal tickets will go on sale from 9am on Monday.
Season-ticket and flexi-card holders will be able to purchase up to two each for the December 11 Capital One Cup quarter-final, either from the ground or online. But the club are encouraging the fans to use the internet option if possible to limit queues.
With Arsenal taking the whole Midland Road stand, around 3,000 City season-ticket holders have been moved from their regular spot.
Seats in the other three stands will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. So season-ticket holders in those areas will not be able to guarantee their usual place – unless they are quick off the draw.
Initial sales are just for the season-ticket and flexi-card holders at a price of £20 for adults, £15 concessions (over-60s and students) and £10 under-16s.
Fans will not be able to buy tickets at the ground on matchdays beyond the normal office hours.
The first phase of sales will extend until 5pm on Tuesday November 20. Then from the following day until November 28, tickets will be available to fans with vouchers from the Plymouth and Exeter games.
Any left after that, will go on general sale costing £25/£20/£15.

All spot on, I always suggested a discounted price for season ticket holders or an inflated price for the people who havent been since our decline however you want to look at it...

How do you know the seats won't get sold? I'm sure that all season ticket holders will be there and many will bring a 'guest'. As such, we should sell as many as 14,000 with just season ticket/flexi-card holders. We will probably sell a further 4,000 to Arsenal supporters, meaning there will only be 5-6,000 left for the 'plastics.

I'm not jumping on the 'plastic' argument as I do also understand that for many reasons, many given above it is just beyond some people's means week in week out but as a club city can do no more than they do to make football affordable for as many as possible.

I agree general, I've been a city supporter since I was 6 I'm now almost 28 I don't have a season ticket because I now have 3 kids a wife a house and a full time job which requires me to work evenings Sunday to Thursday so I can't go to midweek games, and I also have to work most Saturdays so because of this I go to home games when I get chance maybe a 3rd of the games each season and some away games if they're not too far away. Please explain how this makes me and many more in my situation 'plastics'?

But I totally agree with the Club's ticket policy. Dead right to put the faithful first and I'm more than happy to take my chances with tickets.
