CUT-PRICE DEALS FOR FA CUP TIE

Posted on: Mon 02 Nov 2009
Carlisle United have put in place a series of special offers for fans at next weekend's FA Cup tie at home to Morecambe.

Adults can save themselves up to a fiver on normal League One admission prices for the first round clash on Saturday November 7, while all under-11s will get in free.
 
Prices have also been reduced for seniors, students and under-18s for the visit of The Shrimps, when the winners will receive £18,000 prize money and a place in round two, just 90 minutes from a possible glamour meeting with a Premier League giant .

Special discounts are available too in Foxy's restaurant - as recommended by celebrity chef Delia Smith when she ate there before Norwich City's visit earlier this month - for fans looking to enjoy a pre-match meal at the Morecambe game (kick off 3pm).

A two-course meal in Foxy's plus a seat in the Edinburgh Woollen Mill stand costs just £30 or only £17 for Under-17s. For Under-11s it is as little as £5 for a children's meal.

United director Dick Young said: "This will be our third home fixture on successive Saturdays, so we are trying to help reduce the cost of coming to watch us play, especially in the current economic climate. There are some real bargains to be had at the Morecambe game for fans of all ages, not just on admission prices but also for meals at Foxy's.

"The FA Cup offers us the potential to earn a lot of money and give everyone at the club a big lift, so it is important we try to attract a decent crowd to get behind the team. Beating Morecambe would net us £18,000 and there is another £27,000 up for grabs in the next round. But besides that £45,000 prize money, we would dearly love to get into the third round and among the big guns like Manchester United and Liverpool. That could really set us up."

Tickets for the Morecambe tie are on sale now. Bookings are already being taken for Foxy's for the cup clash.

Admission against Morecambe for adults will cost £15 to sit or £12 to stand, compared to £20/£18 or £16/£14. For seniors and students it is £10 or £8 instead of £14/£12 or £12/£10. Under-18s will be £5 or £4 instead of £9/£8 or £7/£6. Under-11s are free instead of £4 or £3. Admission remains free for under-sevens.
