'Daylight robbery' - Watford and Man City fans left outraged by ticket prices for FA Cup final

Details for this season's FA Cup final have been confirmed, and it's safe to say that fans are not entirely happy.

The fixture, which will be contested between Watford and Manchester City, will take place on Saturday 18th May with a kick-off time of 5pm.

However it's the allocation and price of the tickets which has caused a bit of a stir.

Both clubs are due to receive an allocation of 28,000 tickets for the showpiece event, meaning that just 56000 of the 90000 capacity will be occupied by the competing sides.

But it's the prices of the tickets which have really irked the fans.

The big decision Pep Guardiola has made ahead of Man City's Champions League clash with Spurs  

Entry to the FA Cup final will be split into four categories which are priced at £45, £70, £115 and an eye-water £145.

The day is set to be an unforgettable occasion for both sides, with Watfords' fans buzzing to feature after their historic extra time victory over Wolves on Sunday, while the clash with the Hornets could also be the penultimate piece of the jigsaw for Pep Guardiola's side as they seek a historic quadruple.

But even that didn't stop the unimpressed fans from reacting on social media.
