I would have had it £5 for season ticket holders, £10 for non-season ticket holders.

(i) In matches prior to the Third Round of the Competition Proper (other than replayed
matches in the Competition Proper), the net gate receipts of each match shall be
divided equally between the competing Clubs.
(ii) In replayed matches in the Competition Proper prior to the Third Round, 5% of the net
gate receipts shall be remitted to The Association and the balance shall be divided
equally between the competing Clubs.

Interesting break down

£10 is the minimum adult charge allowed in Round 3

Tried to purchase my seat and found it sold so I e-mailed the club and had this reply :cry:

"Thank you for your email.
Season Ticket Holder seats are not reserved off for the Shrewsbury fixture as we only have the Grandstand and part of the Canton open.

Unfortunately your seat has been sold for this fixture.

Sorry for any inconvenience caused."

Nice PR City! :(

Overpriced, plus they will add a booking fee which is another rip off. The club would rather market tickets at 10.00 rather than 11.50 which includes booking fee.

Its not good - they should use this match to attract lost supporters and reward season ticket holders

personally I think £10 Adult and £3 for an under 16 is decent price.

I am happy enough and purchased my ticket. and as my season ticket is in the family stand I am taking the opportunity to seat in a more central seat by the home dugout. which my son will love.

I am sure if we get through and pull out a big team in the next round everyone will be wanting an FA cup Ticket

If your season ticket season isn't available due to only two stands being open then what's there to complain about?

It's not so much of a complaint - just disappointed that's all. I presumed being a season ticket holder meant we get first dibs on our seat for all cup matches so I was a little surprised that when I went to purchase my seat it was gone so I thought it might be an e-ticketing error!

That's normally the rule but if they're not opening all ends guess it's first come first serve

I'd sell them all for a pound. Better than having 12 people and a dog
