If we do play Citeh, we should have a prize for whoever spots the first "Genuine City fan here lads. Looking for 2 spare tickets as me and my mate are massive Bluebirds. Honest."

CARDIFF CITY OR MANSFIELD V MANCHESTER CITY FA CUP 4TH RD :bluebird: :bluebird:

NEWPORT COUNTY V TOTTENHAM :thumbright: :thumbright:


SO SUDDENLY CARDIFF CITY COULD GET THEIR 33,500 CAPACITY :lol: :lol: :bluebird:




FA Cup fourth round in full!


Liverpool vs West Brom
Peterborough vs Fleetwood Town or Leicester
Huddersfield vs Birmingham
Notts County vs Wolves or Swansea
Yeovil Town vs Manchester United
Carlisle or Sheffield Wednesday vs Stevenage or Reading
Cardiff or Mansfield vs Manchester City
MK Dons vs Coventry City
Millwall vs Rochdale
Southampton vs Watford
Middlesbrough vs Brighton or Crystal Palace
Bournemouth or Wigan vs Shrewsbury Town or West Ham
Hull vs Nottingham Forest
Newport County vs Tottenham
Norwich or Chelsea vs Newcastle
Sheffield United vs Preston North End



I’ll have a bet with you now that we won’t get anywhere near our capacity. It’ll be a reserve team fixture for both clubs. 25k max. Hopefully we won’t make this game a priority.



I will have a bet it will be guaranteed over 25,000 :thumbright: :thumbright:

Manchester City will bring 5,000 themselves :thumbright: :thumbright:


Clubs like Everton,Spurs,Arsenal,Manchester City etc sell out the away allocations everywhere No matter :thumbright: :thumbright:

Incl 5,000 Manchester City Fans.


why not give Man City 28k and city the away end :laughing6: :laughing6: :laughing6:


:lol:

What we deserve :lol:

I am back that weekend for Bolton home, so lets hope its Manchester City instead :thumbright: :bluebird: :bluebird: :bluebird: :bluescarf:


That’s convenient :lol:

Think I might be back that weekend also :thumbup:


Booked three months ago, I put it on here and then was told it might be not Bolton as we had the FACUP maybe.
I am booked to fly back Sunday 7am to watch Atletico Baleares.
If our game is moved to a Sunday,then I would have to stay in Cardiff till Tuesday night Hmmm?


Got a feeling if we get through will be moved

Have they re started yet after Winter Break

How was Reyes in Barcelona ?



No its still Winter flights so I would struggle big time.


Fantastic time in Barcelona Cheers :thumbright: :thumbright:



Glad you enjoyed :thumbup:

Since Monarch gone flights for me drastically reduced options and increased prices but where there’s a will there is a way :ayatollah:

Unfortunately even against Man City we won't sell out my guess about 25-28k crowd

Providing we beat Mansfield of course

It would be a sell out without question.
They would have 4/5k and would sell out leaving around 28/29k for home fans.
Add in the local man city fans and people who would go just because its man city.

A game like this would easily sell out

There is no doubt that City will put out a full strength team as the draw of a bumper pay day would be too much.

However I don’t think fans should start thinking about Man City Just yet. Even with a full strength team you know Mansfield on their own pitch in front of their own fans will be up for it. Add on top our recent form. A huge banana skin awaits!

There is no way Warnock will put a full strength side out in a match we can’t win. We only had such a strong side on Saturday because of injuries. The League is FAR more important and Warnock knows this.

Whose actually moaning that much? :?

Plenty of the usual comment and way out of date jokes :roll: but I don't think there is the moaning you perceive.

Ok I will give you that one Tony, usual comments re crowds though. Anyhow, Mansfield await us first. I think we will beat them, the boys will wake up. This trip really appeals.

Add me to the list of those fans! Bit hard to make Mansfield at home when you're sat in a hospital with a head-bandage recovering from an operation :lol:

Looking forward to the game, couldn't make our last win over Man City either (lucky cousin got my ticket to go instead :(), so hopefully I'll actually get to see us beating them for once!

If we beat Mansfield, A weakened side against arguably one of the best sides in Europe at the moment and risk a pasting at home in front of a full house that would turn potential fans away from us,,,no chance, NW will put out the strongest side possible and tell them to go for it and enjoy the occasion just as I will. I will worry about the league after it. :ayatollah: :bluebird:

Agree with that.

Then any new season ticket purchasers or those that buy for next year. Milk it.

The only guaranteed tickets should go to the fans who went to the largely unpublicised Scrotingham United friendly in '83.

The handful of us who went don't talk about it due to the non-disclaimer agreements we had to sign but for sure, me, Titchy, Slasher, Clawhammer Colin , Acid Pete and Dai The Strangler surely deserve tickets?

There are loads off people that love a big live game every now and again, plus non supporting Dads taking kids to see the Man City players so it will be a big crowd. It depends on if it's live on Sky how big ?

It will be interesting to see how many they smash Bristol City by tonight.
