Seem to be getting back into it a bit more. The commentator is annoying the tits off me

3-1 palace.

Right, so now someone who has neutral feelings on lowe, a season ticket and a lot of feelings for the club is now being told to **** off. Now we can't win. I was saying that if you come on the for last 30 mins, are protecting a vitally needed 3 points and you are 18/19 then you should be running your heart out for the club you have been so desperate to play for, not sitting back and letting the opposition run rings around you before watching them equalise with 3 minutes to go. DMG was lazy yes, but that is unfortunately something we see week in week out and he had played the full 90 minutes. Navy I am also very suprised by the high level of football the young players have shown this season and I don't slate paterson for having a go yesterday when he had the chance, i'm glad he did. But you MUST close down players in the dying minutes of the game if you want to take back some points, something which i thought we had learned from last season. And i'd prefer it if you didn't call people who have been to 15+ games this season and given their money to saints a 'disgrace to the club'.

Because i've been loyal to the club throughout the season, and spent quite a bit of money in doing so. Therefore when the biggest team in Europe comes to st. marys it makes a nice change from the likes of blackpool.

If you come on for the last half an hour you should not be tired, instead Paterson turned into a lazy **** that didn't even look bothered, and wouldn't tackle the guy with the ball which quickly led to their equaliser. If there is one thing that should be learned from todays game it's to.... CHASE THE F**KING BALL

That's the problem, if holmes and robertson had had DMGs 73 shots between them we would have scored a lot more goals.

I actually feel confident for once and would go 3-1 But if i feel like this they usually lose I'll compromise at 2-2

Sounds pretty good, we need a set piece taker.

Worst case scenario for you is most season ticket holders buy their 2 ticket allocation, taking up 20,000. Then united fans sell out, making 24,500 and then members buy 7,500 tickets. I think you'll be ok though, if you get in as soon as you can buy them.

As you said it's the same amount as a league game, except TV which will bring in £160,000, much more than just a few quid.

Lowe classed it as 'a drop in the ocean'

£28 is currently the highest, possibility that unlike last season's FA cup games there may be different prices for different areas of the stadium.

I think the players will want to play man utd alot more than other smaller teams they may be drawn against with their new prem team. This is, of course saying that a transfer deal has already been struct between the two clubs.

The echo have said that saints are currently working on the basis that the average ticket price will be around £23, taking into account children and concessions. I guess it will be around £15 for teens and £25ish for adults, which I think will have a big effect on the gate. If it is this much we may be looking at around 24,000 and a big reduction in profit.

Defeat very possible, but what will be your excuse if it does sell out? Had 6 people today asking me to get tickets, + me and my ST mate + 3 members of the family makes 11 just from the usual two of us that go.

Would get alot more for a replay at old trafford.

Draw, more money for the club, a trip to old trafford and slightly more realistic.

So we're really looking at a good half a million.........lets just hope for a draw to double that!

Last season i think the highest adult ticket was £15, teens £10 and juniors £5. With the different ages in the ground it probably works out around that.

Without any catch like paying for a league game aswell as united, how are we going to make much profit from the game besides TV rights? I think i'm right in saying that man utd get half the gate, then the FA get 15%... So an average say of £12.50 per ticket at 32,500 = £406,250 15% of which is £60,937 Leaving £345,313 Halve that and you leave us with £172,656. I'm not up to date on how much the TV people may pay us, but added to that you have sutff people buy inside the ground etc, so without TV you're looking at £200,000. An average league game now we get about 14,500 fans, and say tickets are averaged out at around £17.50 thats £253,000. Any idea what ITV will pay us?

Last rule: Don't be patronising?

Well, we got 20,000 at the same time last season for leicester. Shame you don't go anymore, I have missed the crazily over the top clapping

I wouldn't be so sure, i expect around 28,000.

Is it 10%? I thought the whole of the cup was 15%.

I'm sure they'd want to stay and yes they would be cup tied. However, i can't see the likes of jack cork playing in any of chelsea's cup games this season.
