Tickets prices for the FA Cup semi-final tie have been released ahead of the Sheffield United clash against Manchester City at Wembley.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Despite the club’s small stature, this will be their second FA Cup semi-final in the last decade, last reaching this stage in 2014.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Blades fans were already likely disheartened by the unfavourable draw before finding out tickets would range from \u00a330 to \u00a3105.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Matthew Jackson, local fan, said: “In my opinion it’s all wrong, family of three to Wembley potentially \u00a3125-200 and coach fare, help!”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The bulk of the tickets (12,645) are priced at \u00a365 for an adult and \u00a355 for concessions; however, with transportation, questions could be asked about the choice of venue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The club had been allocated 34,000 tickets, which go on sale on 6 April for season ticket holders and 14 April for general sale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Both sets of fans will have a significant journey ahead of them, with a 334-mile and 400-mile round trip respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This had forced fans to choose between forking out a minimum of \u00a377 for train tickets or spending approximately \u00a360 for petrol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Though there are coach services available for the travelling fans, the trip would take upwards of four hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Matt Zanelli, another fan, said: “All I wanted was to take my dad and I can’t even do that now, great.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In addition to this, it has previously been reported that hotel rooms in the area have doubled since the draw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The game will take place 22 April at 4:45, squeezed between league fixtures against West Brom and Bristol City.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tommy Doyle, who scored a last-minute winner in the previous round versus Blackburn, and James McAtee will be unavailable against their parent club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sheffield United will also be without Rhian Brewster and Rhys Norrington Davies, who have both been ruled out with injuries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Blades fans will hope to overcome the current Premier League champions and leading Premier League top scorer in Erling Haaland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the event United progressed, the Cup final has already been scheduled for June 3rd nearly a month after the club\u2019s championship finale against Birmingham.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
