any expectations of when the city waiting list number will be confirmed?
Forgot about the waiting list, is that still a thing now the Anfield road is open? A mate of mine was 1250 lr something for Palace.

Yeah every game going to wait list then late sale. Your mate should get sorted.

Cheers mate, I did say to him that anything under 2000 should be golden.

Long way off but took a punt on Dublin flights boosted by a wave of optimism after Sunday. Ridiculously expensive already on Ryanair and aer lingus are taking the mick

I booked mine about a month ago. I live in Birmingham so got direct flights for about £100. Already  a lot more expensive now

I'm in Brum too and got mine on the day that Klopp announced he was leaving. £70- thought I'd go anyway to see relatives even if we don't make it. Perhaps see you on the flight ;-)

I paid £90 cash from Liverpool, Ryanair changed the times so allowed me free flight changes last week... have changed the outbound to an earlier flight and the itinerary I'm on now is £386

Just checked. You can still fly with Aer Lingus from Birmingham to Dublin (8:10am out on 22 May) (6:30am back on 23 May) for under £100....

Belfast is relatively straightforward also for onward / return travel to Dublin if flight prices are crazy.

On the contrary, I'd say it's a bit of a pain in the bollocks.

Fly from wherever to Belfast International. Have to get a 40 minute bus to Europa. Then get a train to either Lanyon Place or Lisburn/Portadown to get on the Enterprise to Dublin which is only every 90 minutes or 2 hours and sit on the train for a couple of hours.
A quick flight direct to Dublin suddenly becomes a 4 or 5 hour journey if you go via Belfast.
Flying into the City would eliminate the 40 minute bus journey, but you're then having to get a taxi from there to Lanyon for the train. c*nts would probably charge £20 for a 5 minute drive.
The bus service doesn't seem to be much better. I don't see anything on Translink website with any special services for it.

Would agree with all this, though I'd be amazed if there weren't more special services running for the trains and probably even busses from the airport to Dublin on the days in and around the match, probably depends who gets there

Wholeheartedly agree with this, it’s a pain in the backside unless you have a car in Belfast. Having saved money in various ways travelling home to Dublin from very expensive matches, I would put landing in Belfast Int, below travelling to Birmingham or sail / rail option of Liverpool, Chester, Anglesea, Dublin. In terms of simplicity and time wasted.

There's a 705x or something ran by aircoach that would take out a lot of that. Stops at international, city airport then dublin airport. 1 bus then dublin airport to city centre.

Edit. This bus goes to dublin city centre.

That's decent, wasn't aware of it. However wouldn't fancy sitting on it for 3 hours  :D

Would definitely depend on how much cheaper it would work out if I was looking at it. Would need to be saving 3 figures to consider it.

Flights from Manchester to Dublin are a lot cheaper than from Liverpool although more than from Birmingham. Might be a better option depending where you live and your appetite for driving etc.

Had a lot on their plate with the cup final, late forest away sales and sorting Prague away out. Plus a home game tonight

Probably hear about City and Prague home by the end of the week - most if not all on 4+ will get sorted

As Rebecca said on here, it's only a very small handful of people who work on this kinda stuff, half a dozen ish. Rest are casual customer support staff on live chat

I think a lot of the unknowns are out the window now, just a swamp of fixtures every weekend and midweek now until may if we keep winning

Its mostly a copy and paste job for the small ticket team which takes them 5 mins to do - to them putting the sales notice up for man city its just another process job that they could do with they're eyes closed.... so they dont see the urgency. It will be up when its up and the sales will occur before the game, and I be pretty confident saying that everyone on 4+ will get one if they want one.

Maybe the coding for when the games are on sale are the hardest, but even then if they've been working their for 15 years straight it must quite monotonous and repetitive for them

My concern is they will offer seats with an offsite (aintree etc) as hospitality rather than honour the waiting list if there is a league to be won last day.

It doesn’t need to be a padded seat to be sold as hospo

I sat on a padded seat for the Luton game, they were quite comfortable. Didn’t realise any of those seats were in the members returns if unsold
