If you purchase a ticket for the Family Stand cost £329 and you have children cost £49 each you would be entitiled to 3 tickets for the Carling Cup Final????

Because this could mean a Liverpool fan could in theory spend £427 and get 3 tickets for Wembley admittedly 2 tickets would be Junior tickets but then he would probably have no problem in selling his Season Ticket to a City fan with a couple of kids for say £380 thus securing 3 tickets for Wembley for just £47 above face value? :o

This could mean touts make an absolute killing if the above scenario is possible does anyone know???

Aye, as I didn't do the 5yr price freeze my renewal was £345 & £11 for my lad (U9) = option of trying to get 4 Wembley tickets (2 adults & 2 kids).

Would take some planning as he would need to know who he was selling the ST's to as they need pictures on the ST's

Good point possibly the photo requirement would stop this loophole being abused would hate to think of Liverpool or Touts taking advantage :twisted:

Still can't fathom out why so many S/T holders require 2 tickets for Wembley, obviously many know people who are die hard City fans but for some reason are not S/T holders, will these people now be buying season tickets?

Well i can only speak for myself but my Son who loves the City and attends all our midweek games and went to the Palace away game works on Saturday and so a Season ticket would not be economical. So i have renewed and if i am amongst the first 10,000 then my second ticket will be going to him :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

I am sure there are many other genuine City supporters who have to work weekends so perhaps that's why some people want a 2nd ticket :?:

I have the option, but won't be taking them. I logged into e-ticketing, as it didn't crash or hang I kept going (if it did, I'd of tried a lot later). Can forget about ST till August when they arrive.
