Sorry, misunderstood. My petrol costs about £20 so I voted £30. So a tenner to get in is 'fair and appropriate'. Whether I go isn't based on costs though - more on the weather, the KO time and the importance (round 5 is important so I'll deffo go...this time). But I suspect that unless it is set around a tenner and there is a schools deal (meaning the place is full of screaming nine year olds) it will be half empty again.... nevertheless that doesn't bother me.... also I assume that PPF won't be there no matter how 'lo cost' it is....or will he? Its all so confusing.....

Nah - I think you're mis-reading this one.

£15 - guaranteed sell-out.
£20 - not too far from a sell-out, possibly still would.

CUP FEVER will take a grip on Sussex once again.

£20 for adults and £10 for juniors and OAPs. Try to get junior's through the gates and make them fall in love with the FA cup.

Coventry will sell what ever is allocated to them.

You've convinced me. I'm IN.

My in-laws are from Coventry, they will be coming down for the weekend. Should be great, if we win, of course! I've put £20 but £15 including travel would be nice!

I thought travel wasn’t included for cup games, as the club’s obligations to subsidise travel on apply to league games.

On that basis I would go for £10 and try to maximise attendance.

It was for the third round. You've just outed yourself as someone who couldn't be arsed with that one.

In context it's £11 to see Lewes play, £12 to see Whitehawk. Most of the Conference South is around £15.

FA Cup 5th round, I'd be more than happy to pay £20 which would be a more than fair price.

£10 and get it sold out. No travel included. That would be my preference, slightly selfishly!

Do what Villa did against us for a similar round a few years back - ten pounds and make a nice gesture!

And where do those (including 4,500 away fans) who drive to the game park?

£20.00 including travel for me, would be close to a sell out imo

£15 (No travel) was the price for the Hull City match in 2014. I think that was on TV (and a Monday night match). Crowd 21,352

I reckon it might be £20 without travel for a Saturday game.

You pay for travel like any other ground in the country or like the cup game earlier this season :shrug:
