are we giving wycombe seats in the east?
if we do will we be opening ourselves up to have to give 25% in the third round of the f.a.cup if we draw chelsea/spurs or the like.
to me, if we can safely accomodate 3000 wycombe fans in the east then chels/spurs have the right to those seats as well (in the cup).
didn't we do it against brentford?
how would we react to a request from chels/spurs for those seats?

    I believe the rules are basically "up to 25% of the ground capacity or whatever can be safely segregated"
  • Les's phone calls have fallen on deaf ears then?
    Not many have taken up the offer.

    I'm waiting till they go on general sale - I fancy watching it from the upper north instead of my usual seat in the lower north.

    was the 15% 'pre edit' post a typo, or do you now know it to be 25%?
    if it's 25%, then as i said in original post we are may find ourselves with a problem.
    i don't think we'd be happy if say our 1st visit to emirates was in the cup and arsenal had accomodated 15,000 away fans in a previous round, we ask for the same allocation only to be turned down, (i'm not saying we'd take 15,000 but using it as an extreme example).
    how different it that example to chels/manu demanding 6,000?

    It was a typo.

    If the 15,000 can safely be segregated, I believe the Arse would have to give it to us.

    Them's the rules - just like how the money is split (FA Cup - 45% home team, 45% away team and 10% to the FA).

    Dates-wise - our first visit to the Emirates CAN'T be a cup match. We're there on 2nd Jan.

    Yeah, I agree.

    Gonna try-out the upper north during the cup games (if we get more than just Wycombe at home) and maybe move permanently next season.

    I've been North Upper once, for the Boro cup game and atmosphere was electric I thought, felt like an away game! But only at Fulham away this season have I been impressed by the amount of singing we done. Stood up the whole game!
