Fully agree Oli - but don't expect Turkeys to vote for Christmas ! :-)

Did anyone notice that VIP section sat empty yesterday?  It was the
middle block in the mainstand on the front of the tier - it sat empty
throughout.

Seems even the liggers were loathe to a Cardiff 2 o'clock !!

Subject: [imusa] FA cup final allocations


Last year there was an unprecedented step by the FA to give (slightly)
fewer 
tickets to neutrals and more to each club. We now have a new head of the
FA 
in a position to continue this shift back towards the supporters and
show 
that he actually cares.

We all know that neutral tickets all end up in the hands of the
supporters 
anyway, just at inflated prices. And it is easy to understand how
someone 
opportunistically agrees to a ticket they are offered and is later
tempted 
by hundreds of pounds waved in front ofd their face. The FA have to
realise 
that it is far more sensible to let the club's decide who goes, rather
than 
it being determined by which not necessarily loyal fans can afford to
buy 
from a tout.

I am sure a few polite letters to the FA would not do any harm in the
next 
week whilst they decide the allocations.

Cheers
Oli
