Top Tier. Had about 100 all sat together and it caused a shit storm when they scored. Think our ticket office got pelters for that one as it was clearly someone who sold these tickets to an agency who then sold them to Sunderland fans.Sunderland had fans in our end
Chiltern run a few extras and everything stops at Wembley on match days.Apparently Chiltern Trains are putting on trains with longer carriages into Marylebone (usually stops at Wembley) if anyone planning on driving half way then train. However many won’t be stopping at Warwick Parkway or Bicester. I drove to the latter for Watford which worked well but sounds like it’s not a great idea this time.
Why would they play it at 3 ?Chiltern run a few extras and everything stops at Wembley on match days.
There is usually an extra from Birmingham Moor St out and back for Club Wembley holders, it's always half empty!!!
The late ko time they insist on is the fucking killer for rail travel.
Play it at 3 and any remaining PL games play them around it!
Think they will run loads from the ground, I did it first year v the Rags. Fuckin hated it, not for me.Again, I'm sounding stupid - I've always gone to the semis and finals by train. How many official coaches will the club put on ? What are the chances of getting on a supporters club coach without being in a supporters club ? I assume it's zilch.
I was offering a suggestion that might make things easier.Why would they play it at 3 ?
The TV company want to show the match to the biggest armchair audience they can get. That is why it is 5.30. They don't give a shit about fans attending the game. Never have never will
Play it on the 9th and the league game on the 16th?I was offering a suggestion that might make things easier.
The FA say they are working on a solution, can't think what would work apart from not using the regular ko times.
They'll probably move the games back not forward though!
