Semi-final draw: City v Arsenal 3pm Sunday confirmed

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

32,000 for a semi-final, would imagine every seasoncard holder who wants a ticket will get one. Seen a few saying they will give it a miss

There will be people who will give a semi final at Wembley a miss.

Probably best to park at Watford, Apsley or Harrow and get train in.

Only downside for me is that it's a hell of a long day driving there and back in a day. After the final last year I was knackered when I got home and had to concentrate all the way back as the traffic was very heavy.

Yeah that's a point, especially if we get the likely 5:15pm ko time.

I normally park at Stanmore and get the tube in.

I use cannon park next stop from Stanmore bigger car park and not as busy

Last year the draw was made on a Monday, and the dates of each semi-final announced on the Friday

I actually stopped using Stanmore car park and park somewhere on a street around it, no queuing to get out then.

Will the Green Man be a City pub. It was for the Wigan final. Great spot.

A complete shit hole.

Not a single decent pub near Wembers.

Yup, better off with a carry out from the tescos and have a beer on the streets

Bollocks. I've really enjoyed the Green Man every time we've had it.

I don't think any of the games would be easy but they won't want to face us as we can beat anyone on our day.

Spurs are not as good away from the Lane and have been dire at Wembley. I think our collective experience would really help us against them.

Arsenal on a good day are a good side but can be bullied and we are the team to do that. Tricky game that one though for me. Used to big games, won the final twice in last 3 years. Wengers last hurrah etc. Good for
Us is that they dont defend well and can't park the bus.

Chelsea are a good side but I think we could beat them on a big pitch and owe them one. 50/50 that one would be I reckon.

Rags are one I don't want as it's just a shit hostile atmosphere and They would no doubt play like Stoke did the other night with the intention of doing better on the break. Hopefully Chelsea will beat them.

Bit of a different take.
Assuming they get past Rostov they'll be playing Thurs that week in a QF, they've little chance of securing top 4 - I suggest that'll f### Maureen up good and proper.
I'd take us to beat that shower with an extra days rest and prep

Yeah that's a point, especially if we get the likely 5:15pm ko time.

If you get extra time and pens like we did in the final last year, it makes it worse. I got home about 1am last year and it was bumper to bumper virtually all the way. Scousers obviously on the same roads though.

Always used the national express for Wembley trips but debating on whether it's better to drive or get the train this time.

Not too bothered about drinking so that's why I thought I'd drive, for those who have done it before what's it like a) parking up and b) getting away from the ground etc?

I've done all three, car, coach and train. It depends on who's travelling with you. I've done the train with a few lads for a pissup and i've drove and coach with children. When i drove i used the park on my drive website and parked a few streets up from the green man, no problems at all and even got away handy until i took a wrong turn and ended up around utds end right in the middle of a large mob of them singing "City where are ya" It felt like the warriors ffs!

If I manage to get a ticket I will do the Metropolitan bar next to Baker street tube station,then a 15 minute journey straight to Wembley.Did the Chelsea semi-final and would recommend this place.

 

[blue b4 the moon]

any one got a link to the stadium seating plan that shows the pricing guide (eg where the cat 1, cat 2 tickets are etc).
Ticket prices same this years as last.

Liquid piss. Wouldn't drink it if it were free.

Packed with pissed up ballooners......shameless on tour.

Cheers bud, so park up at Watford train station then?

 

[blue b4 the moon]

Hopefully good old Wealdstone will come up trumps again.

Decent beers, pretty cheap, good food and have an excellent record of looking after us.

Thought it was 40k tickets for semi? If we do the business Wednesday then hoping for arsenal or rags easiest game possible!

Just off the motorway .really big station carpark about £5 from memory .really good pub by carpark the flag.
Train about 20 mins to Wembley. Or on the other side of Watford you can use the underground/overground which comes out at the top of Wembley way.
Done Watford the last 3 times miss all the traffic going in and out .and you are going past Watford anyway .
Would recommend to any blue
