Community Shield Tickets

[Marvin]

All booked just now, i'm a few rows higher up than i fancied... we were 26th row for the semi which i found too far away and 10th for the final which was perfect (yes i know.. i'm in the minority who prefer to be nearer the front!). The first 5 blocks i chose were offering row 1 or row 43, so i panicked and bought row 16 when it came up.

At least i'm there - what's with all the apathy on here (by a small few, but they're very loud!), yes it's a friendly, but you have to *win a proper cup* to qualify so we should be positive about this match! It's a bit soon to sound so jaded isn't it? Give it 5 years then maybe we'll all be sick of wembley ;)
And i understand money worries of some, i am possibly the most skint in debt depressively desperate person on here trust me :( , but i was allowed (?!) to put the cheap train and the cheapish match tickets on the card of who was going with me as a xmas/bday present in advance, so i'm lucky i know. But it's not every day we're at wembley (ok... it is lately! But you can't take this stuff for granted imo)

My view:

-A trip to see City at Wembley
-Us v them
-Chance of another trophy

I can't see the problem people have. I'd understand if Wigan had won the league.

I tell you what will be funnier is when the ticket forum explodes with "spares" next week. People wont be able to shift them and it serves them right really.

Not quite sure what you are getting at here! Are you actually suggesting that it will be funny if our end of the ground is half empty? Or have I missed something?

No hes suggesting people buying for the points knowing they are not going, then trying to shift them on here when/if sells.

Has anyone bought tickets for this and then checked their points. OS says 20 points, I got 40, don't tell anyone they might take them back.

Double points for Platinum members.

Don`t worry mate all the loyal blues who can afford to go will be at this game. If you can`t afford it fair enough, your still as loyal as those who go. The others need to have a long hard look at themselves.

Couldn't agree more with this general sentiment. Can't believe anyone could have a
can't be arsed attitude to this game.
Not so long ago we would have dreamed of being in a charity shield just because it
would have meant we'd won something. Now people can't be arsed to hopefully see
us win another trophy and against them. Despair that no doubt come Chelsea /
Arsenal / champs league away lots will be on moaning about lack of points etc.

it,

You can fuck off with that as well mate. I've never dreamt of a fucking charity shield in my life and I never will. It's a friendly. If we win or lose it will mean about the same to me as a round 3 carling cup 1st leg game.[/quote]


Guess we'll have to disagree. I seem to recall dreaming for a fucking home league goal for 8 months under Pearce so don't tell me we wouldn't have killed for a charity shield game against the old enemy back then (it's not the actual game I'm on about, it's the fact it means we've won something, and for the first time in 35 years), how quickly we forget?

If I remember correctly there was a few who said they weren't going to the semi final, 'cos it was Wembley', although we still sold out. A lot of apathy for the latter rounds of the FA Cup when we were at home and couldn't sell out. I can understand people not going if they're on holiday, or are skint, but apathy tits me off. First Community Shield in nearly 40 years, against the rags, and you can't be arsed.

We'lll be the laughing stock of Europe next season if we don't fill the ground for the Champions League games either. Perhaps we do need some new fans and all the moaning dears can go and watch County, where they belong. It's a lot cheaper and you can be home in 10 minutes. Not many cup matches either.

Have County got a decent forum, if not, you could start one up and spend all day on there; failing that you could spend some time with the wife and kids!

Oh god. We've got another kiam on the forum. All piss and vinegar and living in a sky blue utopia

Seems a bit too similar to a rag jibe for comfort that?
