FA Cup Final 2012 - Liverpool v Chelsea

Not happy with this ballot, 5 on my members card and still no guarentee!

Anyone have any idea on what the chances are and how many will be left after the ST holders take their allocation?

Well this rules me out then. I have been to all 5 but sadly, Oldham is not on my card. F***ing raging! Gutted like. There goes that dream.

Assuming the Chavs get the same allocation, I make that 39,800+ tickets going to The FA.

Truly scum.

Surprised that the Members with 5 have gone to a ballot, although I've heard that the club (players/staff) etc are taking almost twice as many of our allocation (around 2500 tickets) so that may have impacted it.

Could have sworn we heard in an earlier round that we heard there was about 10-12000 ST with auto-cup so that should leave about 12000 tickets for members with all of them.

Gut feeling is that it will be about 80-90% of people succesful in the ballot.

There were only 6000 extra tickets for the semis and that included all ST holders and 80% of members who had only missed one so I assume that those in the ballot have pretty decent odds of getting through.

I'm not going the final anyway - I've had two fantastic trips there already so have done well.  I just hope the final comes somewhere close to just how good beating Everton was.  Make some noise for me!

No offense to Fancard holders here.. Im aware its not much money in the grand scheme of things..

But I pay £30 a season to be a member. I've made all 5 FA cup games this season, and yet Fancard holders with 5 games have the same chance at getting a ticket as me without paying anything extra.

What exactly am I paying £30 for?

Just doesn't sit right.

Same here Danny, although I have only been to 4 FA Cup games, missed Oldham, mind you JD did warn us all that this would be the case. 

In the ballot. Pretty confident most will be successful.

My heart in football is being tested big time with all the corporate sh*te that comes with it these days though. The allocation is beyond a joke and it will only get worse until we, the people who put the money into football, stand up against the huge dictatorship, that is the FA and their bum chums.

So true. I spend most of my non-LFC match days on the non-league scene and the contrast in greed, corporate factor and support is sickening.

It's getting to the stage when you almost feel worthless to the FA, Premier League and the club.

Season ticket holder with 5 so I'm sorted I think most members with 5 will get sorted

65%? 65% of what number though?

Not living in hope. Me and my old man were lucky to both get them for the CC final, so if we don't this time round I can't complain. Even if the FA are a corrupt c**t-filled organisation of Mancs and Southerners.

Bricking it.

I was lucky enough to get one in the League Cup ballot, unsure on this one.

65% of what number exactly, where have they got that percentage from?

65% of what number exactly, where have they got that percentage from?

65% of people who have entered the ballot - ie members/fancards with all 5.

Suggests to me like LFC have boxed themselves off with about 5000 of the 25000 tickets.

Totally bang out of order.Anybody know what end weve been allocated yet?

The opposite to the Carling Cup and FA semi - Chelsea are classed as the 'home' team

Wrong that mate.

LFC are in the same end as we have been in the last two trips (admittedly not quite as far around - thanks to the corporates).

Same problem for me again. Been to all the FA Cup games this season, including Wembley, but unfortunately Oldham is not recorded on my card so may struggle to get a ticket. Fingers crossed though. Good luck to everyone.

My mates got the same. Only missed the Oldham game all season and been told he won't qualify. What a pisser.

All the grass roots clubs can apply for 2 tickets every season before end of November and will get them guaranteed. My mate has got two through his club and said I can have them for me and my lad. Only trouble is, don't know if they will be in the rent boys end or the reds end yet. Anxiously awaiting the news.

Not happy with this ballot, 5 on my members card and still no guarentee!

Anyone have any idea on what the chances are and how many will be left after the ST holders take their allocation?

This is the same for me and my dad mate
