So you want the club to lay on a train to and from London for a home game? I can understand it the other way round I.e. For an away game but not for a home game.

This! I can’t believe what I’m reading.

If people are crazy enough to travel from London to Liverpool for every home game it’s their problem.

First dips for PRH, after that STH with Everton and perhaps (not likely) members with Everton can buy in the same sale. After everyone with Everton had there chance it will drop to all STH and after that all members.

Edit, Details below:

They should give the STH first dibs.

Yeah of course we can’t upset the almighty STH

It’s not like they got first dips in the ACS before members with full FA cup credit. Surely they need first dips every time..

But that’s the way it’s been and the way it will continue..

The same problem arises with night away games down south with 4+ hour drives back. How many fans travel up from London to a match on a regular basis? Enough to have a dedicated train starting from Euston calling at Watford, Milton Keynes, Tamworth and Stafford? Spurs organised a train for their fans either last season or the season before for a late kick off at Anfield. I know there can be difficulties with accommodating extra trains but it shouldn’t be a problem with a train leaving Lime Street at 11pm. Would there be 500 interested though? The Club could earn some credit by contributing to the cost.

Wait, why would/should the club do that for people from London when they do almost nothing for local fans? Outrageous shout!!

While there is no reason why the club should get involved, there must surely be great opportunities for one of the travel companies to put on a charter train on some occasions, the way they do for Wembley games?

The West Brom game would have been a perfect opportunity, and could even have gone back to London via Birmingham.

Almost that time again. Monday 3rd Dec draw.

Let’s have a decent away please

A nice away please all we have had recently is home ties

Matthew57 · « **Reply #370 on:** November 16, 2018, 10:24:56 am »

It won't be on the Saturday with playing City on the Thursday.

Forest away please-its been too long.

redgriffin73 · « **Reply #372 on:** November 30, 2018, 11:45:08 am »

The draw is on BBC1 on Monday evening, after The One Show I think.

carl123uk · « **Reply #373 on:** November 30, 2018, 11:59:31 am »

New away or lowest ranked team at home

redgriffin73 · « **Reply #374 on:** November 30, 2018, 12:23:06 pm »

Just got the ACS email saying they'll start taking money next week if it's a home draw.

AR48 · « **Reply #375 on:** December 1, 2018, 08:48:08 am »

Presumably any game (home or away) will have to be on Sun/Mon given the fact that we play city away in the league on Thurs.

ScubaSteve · « **Reply #376 on:** December 1, 2018, 09:03:42 am »

An away match would be ideal against a minnow

andy07 · « **Reply #377 on:** December 1, 2018, 09:15:13 am »

Away where we can get a big allocation please.

You would certainly hope so but could be interesting with the League Cup semi finals, possibly City in there and if we draw one of those and they weren't playing City, we'd either play Thursday/Saturday or they'd need to move one of the Carabao semis to the Thursday

Dan The Man 28373 · « **Reply #379 on:** December 1, 2018, 12:23:49 pm »

In the Auto Cup Scheme, but finances tight with so many games relatively in December, so would appreciate an away with a League 1 or 2 club in the 3rd round, then get a home tie in the 4th round if we get through.

nfletcher23 · « **Reply #380 on:** December 3, 2018, 07:54:54 pm »

Wolves away

Luke 17 · « **Reply #381 on:** December 3, 2018, 07:56:14 pm »

should be getting 4800 tickets

gav91v · « **Reply #382 on:** December 3, 2018, 07:57:44 pm »

My mate who supports Wolves says 4,500 ish but he isn't 100% sure

What’s the odds of Wolves going down to general members

PaulKS · « **Reply #386 on:** December 3, 2018, 08:03:22 pm »

Not hopeful having just West Ham... we got 5,900 for that.

Ah well we will find out in 4 weeks when they announce ticket details.

DelTrotter · « **Reply #387 on:** December 3, 2018, 08:04:11 pm »

When Wolves give out a bigger allocation they give that bit down the side and a bit behind the goal don't they? Or used to anyway.

Sooty89!!! · « **Reply #388 on:** December 3, 2018, 08:06:38 pm »

They gave Chelsea the Normal away end and then that new bit in the corner

DOG-LFC8 · « **Reply #389 on:** December 3, 2018, 08:18:47 pm »

Any hope for people on 1 credit (West Ham replay 5,990) getting a sniff at this no?

Obviously Plymouth will guarantee you, then depends who the last away before West Ham was? Can’t remember it’s been that long, was it Exeter or Blackburn??

Im guessing Palace is the 2nd smallest allocation in that list after Exeter? If so i reckon everyone with palace will be sorted

Shanklygates · « **Reply #394 on:** December 3, 2018, 09:03:35 pm »

Such an anticlimax. Sitting there going "yes, yes" at some and "nooooo" at others and ended up being relieved we didn't get Swansea but disappointed we didn't get Villa as I miss going there.

Given it may well be a Monday night, just glad it's not too far away $:-\$

yeah think it will go back to 14/15 which from memory were Wimbledon, Bolton, palace, Blackburn and since then Exeter, West Ham and Plymouth, reckon if you have two of them you will be fine, possibly even arsenal from 13/14 as that was a big allocation

you would need more than 2 of them, West Ham and Blackburn were both bigger allocations than we will get at Wolves

Sooty89!!! · « **Reply #397 on:** December 3, 2018, 09:47:40 pm »

so was Bolton too. Maybe arsenal as well. Of the 8 mentioned you might need 5 to guarantee.

Thomas · « **Reply #399 on:** December 4, 2018, 12:06:12 pm »

We started our FA Cup away ladder at Arsenal then got Bolton, Palace, Blackburn, Villa and West Ham.

What was the allocation at Palace ?
