Just done a bit of digging for this and Birmingham charged Millwall fans £18.00 for there fixture Sunday just gone but apparently it was a grade C fixture

Looked on Birmingham website and we are a grade A fixture and it looks like the tickets will be around £30

They still only got 18k for the game.

With the money they're getting from the BBC, surely they'll have to cut the prices? Otherwise they'll be lucky to get 15000 against us.

I hope its cheap.

Do many go on the train to Birmingham? And if so, which train station would you go to?

New Street, then you can either get a few beers in town, and or walk through digbeth into small heath!! The last time I went it was a superb away day!!

Coming from Leicester (via Nuneaton), I guess you're best off traveling to the city centre, then head back to either Moor Street station and wak back towards St. Andrew's from there or take another, local train to Bordesley (which is the closest station - 5 mins away by foot).

Buses 57A, 58 and 60 all stop near the stadium, as well.

EDIT: If you fancy a couple of hours in town before the game, New Street it is (as Dr. The Singh has already pointed out).

Ah thanks for that! :) I'm only 16, so no beers for me ;) Are they likely to ID you on the train, or don't you know? Because its cheaper for 5-15 year olds so i didn't know wether to try get it cheaper?

From there, it's about a five-minute walk.

Trains only go to New Street from Leicester anyway, if you want to go to Moor Street you have to walk from New Street.

Last time I went here it was chaos, won 1-0 just after the La Manga thing and there was trouble everywhere. Was acosted on the way back to the train station and loads of them were chasing us.

One even jumped out and threatened me with a 6inch blade in his hand, serious note be careful if you go by train, very rough area.

I was there, and I luckily there was police present when a few brum fans tried to jump over and attacks us. Just make sure you don't get isolated, stay with the majority!! Other then tht, we had a cracking time in brum!!

We were in a group of around 10-12, didnt help when a group of 40-45 come out a pub :sweating:

From my vague memory that was the day of a huge organsied brawl between the fans so they were out for revenge after the game. Why I'm thinking of being a bit careful as that day could still be in a lot of peoples minds over there.

I'll probably do the usual thing and hit Broad Street before and after the game, only a fiver in a taxi to and from the station. Better people, better area and better bars.

Should be going to this unless it's ridiculously priced.

Hopefully Sunday, early kick off on BBC will make them think twice about ripping us off.

Home ticket prices have been released, and in the Gil Merrick lower (which I believe is the stand we are also in - correct me if I'm wrong), the adult price is £30, so expect the same for us. The concessions offered to home fans are Senior, Student, Under 18 and Under 13, and I think they have to offer the same for us.

That la manga game was what Leicester City is all about, coming together having a decent time and winning against the odds.

Exactly. You've got to realise that it will be a bigger fixture anywhere really. We've got to accept tickets will be priced high near enough everywhere. At the end of the day, and no direspect towards Millwall who I don't hate one bit, its always going to be a bigger game when we're involved (in terms of our squad and "ambition").

It'll just be the same when Birmingham come to the King Power Stadium.

Last time I went here it was chaos, won 1-0 just after the La Manga thing and there was trouble everywhere.

That goal is still one of my favourites ever. It got put in, Benjamin flicked it on, Izzet squared it and Ferdinand tapped it in :wub: What a goal.

Never been ID'd on the train and i'm 16 and about 6" 3 :thumbup:

I know a Cov fan who went recently and they charged Cov £30 for adult tickets so your spot on Id say.

So you buy the younger tickets yeah? And is it cheaper to order online? :) Thanks!

Yeah younger tickets, if they ask just tell them you're 15, they can't ask you for ID because as a 15 year old ou don't have any :thumbup:

I don't think it makes a difference online or not but don't quote me on that! :D

Just been checking the ticket prices for this one from the Birmingham end for this fixture their will be a student option :thumbup: . From what I can gather adult ticket price: £30-32

Student ticket price: £18-20
