Have Stoke got that many fans

Good luck to your team but even better luck to mine

Hoping that our fans will be doing the Posnan many times over

ive noticed a lot of Stoke fans coming out of the woodwork recently ........i doubt you will have a problem getting them , you must have contacts in the uk ,surely they can help.......imagine the fun in my house , me a blue and wife a red............

Certainly not coming out of the woodwork, been a stoke fan all my life and my avatar until recently was the stoke strip. My family moved away from Stoke when I was a kid so limited contacts, although did sort a ticket out for my dad for the semi. Stoke tickets are very hard to get hold of unfortunately and after forking out $6000 for flights am not in a position to pay £400 +

Just going to bump this, in hope !

I assume you've put this on the Stoke City forums?

nelsonpom

Yea, posted everywhere. Have even had a story done on me incl picture in staffordshire sentinel. But trying everywhere

simonmarkellis

Have you tried approaching the club? Maybe tell them you flying back from NZ...

nelsonpom

Yea did this and not had a reply, but I am not the only one doing massive trip back.

By the time the corporates, team members and families, schools, other clubs etc are given their tickets, and the remainder divided between the teams. Then season ticket holders, cup run attendees, semis attendees and such get theirs, it becomes very difficult for a casual fan to get one.
Touts I reckon, or fleabay.

Here you go, a mere two thousand bucks!

Nice one mate.Fame at last.Will be an amazing day out.It will be a big ask but you never know.Hey will Stoke not be in Europa Cup regardless!!
City will get 4th in EPL and a Champions league spot?
btw which part of Nelson you in?
I visited in Jan and loved it

nelsonpom

Prob in Europe anyway unless spurs catch man city (I think they need 1 more point and they play tuesday so hopefully will put out a strong team and tire themselves a bit :-)). We have a house in the brook in Nelson and I managed one of the cafe/restaurants in centre of town. Nelson is a lovely town.

Have a great time at Wembley & good luck. We went last may to see Blackpool get promoted in playoff final!

Glad your sorted out
