FA Cup Final - 18/05 1700hrs

I'm happy for them that 2.5k blues are getting free travel but there are 28k blues who'd rather have a fiver in their pocket if they had the choice

I'm not sure you can speak for 28k blues but you seem determined to bang this drum. I'm not going to the final, been to Wembley twice this season. On either occasion £5 would have made little difference to me but for some I appreciate it's a lot although hard to see how it softens the 3 figure hit of a trip to Wembley.

If I was going I would choose to make my own way but think it's a great gesture by the club which will really benefit those who choose to take advantage of it.

Seems churlish of you really to find fault.
 
Why should some people benefit from a decent saving, and others get nothing. Seems to be the way that the less effort you make the more you are looked after and there are many examples of this, such as joining champions League cup schemes and being surrounded in the group games with people on freebies, join the FA cup scheme, go to the semi final where thousands couldn't be arsed, and then get nothing, and the next thing coming is trawl all over the country supporting the team in the lean times, you can guess the rest.

They are benefiting because they have opted to use a free service, no one is getting preferential treatment.

Free coaches were put on, if you choose not to use them that is on you, I don't want to use them and wouldn't have gone on a coach anyway; so to me I lose nothing no one is losing out, they are opting out of a service on offer.

Would I rather they hired football special trains instead? Yes

The saving is available to all. You just need to travel by coach from the Etihad.
