Good question, hopefully someone from the club can clear this up for you.

I'd imagine that as the gate receipts after expenses are split between the FA, Morecambe, and Carlisle. With this in mind, any discounted tickets other than those advertised probably have to be agreed by the clubs. So if the family offer is not valid, it might not be the fault of MFC.

I think I'm right in saying that after the abandonment of last season's cup game against Cheltenham, the visitors didn't initially agree that the rescheduled match should be subject to discounted admittance which lead to a few people on here having a pop.

In answer to the question asked regarding family tickets;

Due to the rules governing the split of gate receipts Family tickets normally available to Morecambe fans at Christie Park, are not valid for ANY Cup matches.

We sincerely hope this doesn't stop our supporters from coming to cheer on the boys at tonights FA Cup replay v Carlisle.

We are expecting in the region of 800 Carlisle fans to make the short journey down the M6 and we are relying on our fantastic home support to help lift the team to victory.

As the match poster says, "Delia awaits in the 2nd round, LET'S BE HAVIN YA"
