Considering the club has lost a huge amount of revenue surely those who continued to contribute should get priority?

Sky/BT/Prime subscriptions ✅

season ticket renewal fee ✅

 

this would surely be fairer than old priority points?

Funny  how people don't say this when it's Norwich away on a Friday night 8pm ko on sky.

That was a terrible night. My friend got stuck in traffic so I was alone. I was too much of a wimp to drink in the spoons alone so got 5 cans from the Morrisons and stood outside drinking them, before that terrible performance

I hear you. Took me 5 hours to get there and didn’t get back until 2 am

I left the hotel bar 10 mins before ko and was back in it about 3 mins after the game finished.

 

Sat drinking until 1am even got a fee free beers of some Norwich fans

The fairest way to sell tickets is by following the priority scheme that the Club has followed for many years. 
 

Given only current Season Ticket Holders would be eligible to purchase tickets, they’d have paid their £70 Season Ticket retention fee. It could also be argued that current Season Ticket Holders that have built up their priority points by attending away/Cup matches have less of a requirement for a Sky/BT/Prime membership.

7k is a joke, there should be no corporate or NHS staff members, should purely be for fans who have waited a lifetime for this moment and opportunity. Surely 12-15k each would be more than fair?

There’s only going be 21k there in total so no way each side will get 12-15k.

That was my point, 21k in total for a 90k seater stadium, surely 30% (27k) where each team gets 12k would be ok.

 

Even if there's 21k in total, a third of the tickets going to NHS staff and corporate is shocking.

There’s certainly no way that NHS staff should be getting tickets for this. They do a good job but so do loads of other people. Real fans should be prioritised

100%
 

How many nurses who have genuinely been on the frontline in the COVID wards actually have any interest in a Leicester vs Chelsea FA Cup Final?

 

Giving a load of tickets to NHS staff is just performative nonsense that is highly unlikely to reward anyone who’s done anything other than what they are paid to do. Identify the nurses that have been on the wards and give them a meaningful reward rather than token nonsense they’re likely not interested in.

I’ll see what the conditions are when the info is out I’ve not seen anything yet. I’ll hopefully be going if I haven’t got to piss about with covid tests etc. 

I honestly dont think anyone will be allowed to purchase a ticket unless they have had a test leading upto game. Wouldn’t be surprised if it’s only people who have been vaccinated who get tickets 

[Craig]

It’s a test event and testing will be a part of that. There is absolutely no doubt about that unfortunately. 

[Fox92]

Will be interesting to see the results of the League Cup final today but surely that won't impact because it'll take time for them to come in.

[SemperEadem]

Looks crap

[09bballer]

Anyone know how much Spurs and Man City fans were charged for tickets for today?

[Ian Nacho]

I don’t get the whole NHS staff and local residents nonsense. They don’t get first dibs on tickets normally.

Future events will be for vaccinated people or people who test negative.

 

This is a test event where they don't care if vaccinated or not. They will look at using testing before and after to see the effects of letting people back in for mass events. It has been said that they also want to trial removing masks and social distancing for this game.

How on earth would that be fair? People that have been away week in week out deserve it more than anyone. That’s the real dedication to the team.

had a lot less bites than I expected tbf 

[Nalis]

Maybe it should be a mixed bag approach with any Leicester season ticket holders who are NHS workers getting first priority rather than neutral NHS workers?

I would favour this approach if the NHS person could bring along one season ticket holding friend or family member. 

 

My approval has nothing to do with the fact that me and my daughter are season ticket holders and she is also an NHS nurse. That is purely coincidental 

[Costock_Fox]

Orrrr, the tickets go to fans of the club rather than 3rd party day trippers.

[Voll Blau]

Give NHS workers a pay rise and football fans tickets to a football match. Simple.
