FA Cup Semi-Final | City v Chelsea | Sat 20 Apr 5:15pm SOLD OUT

[bennyboy]

There would have to be no premier league games at 3pm for it to be at that time on Saturday i think.lol.

 

[bennyboy]

Were we West against the rags.

 

[Gone for a Burton]

2 games
2 days
2 channels

I just don't know how they'll decide.....and neither do they !!

BBC (1st pick) & ITV are a fucking joke. There are 2 games to choose from and schedule. How hard can it be FFS?
No regard for the 180,000 travelling fans (I know no great hardship for Chelsea).
Meanwhile, train and hotel prices will be creeping higher as we get nearer the dat

To be honest are any pubs any good near there? Every one I have been in have been absolute shitholes.

Agreed, we usually drink in South Harrow

Season ticket rises will stop lots travelling

Really ? So £30 extra over 10 months will stop people going ? mmmm...

Largely true. The Liquor Station on the West Side was quite decent though against the Rags last season. The alcohol prices weren’t though. £18 for 2 single gin and tonics and they used the same small bottle of tonic water for both drinks!

 

[Bowyers Sausages]

And the marathon runners too.

In that case expect the tubes to be redolent of banana scented farts and ralgex!

Fox n Goose, Ealing.

Good & very handy !!

So bbc get first pick, they must've spent days sat round a table deciding which looks the better fixture. 2 prem sides going head to head yes surely, but wait it's utd, mmm utd we show them every round even if it's against Yeovil at home. Expect our game to be on itv on the Sunday

ITV will virtually always lean to picking United or Liverpool as they know the viewing figures (and the all important advertising revenue) are going to be guaranteed irrespective of how attractive to neutrals the game actually is.
BBC with no ulterior motive, tends to pick games more on merit. That’s not to say they don’t sometimes make weird decisions!

Who had the Boxpark against United? I thought it usually goes to whoever is on the West Side but can’t remember us having it against United. Had to make do with the Chrystal club

Now that place really is something else.

 

[Chris in London]

Yes,and the semi 2011.

And the final that year, and against Wigan two years later. I always think of that as “our” end.

 

[Gone for a Burton]

A lot of interest in this semi.

Loads of bus's being organised.

It will sell quickly
