I'm on the cup scheme - I'll be in work though. Didn't anticipate any 6pm kick offs when I signed up.

Finishing work at 4.30pm as only taking 1/2 hour lunch then a quick dart down M56 from Warrington to hopefully get there in time.

Simple answer - They don't work and/or have more supporters than us willing to go the stadium.

TV, and I don't mean men dressing up. Great ko time for me, means I'll be home before midnight from an evening game for a change, thumbs up from me.Bobby Taylor's Pub Team said:How come it kicks off 10pm local time in Kyev and 6pm in Manchester?
Why not 8pm there and 8pm here?
6pm is a joke.

Think about it. It depends a lot on what happens tomorrow night. A lot is said about loyalty of football fans but none of us have unlimited funds. It's been an expensive month.
If we get a hiding tomorrow not many people are going to turn out to go through the motions.
However I believe that if we get anything better than a draw or even a marginal defeat people will rally and respond, and if we get a win on Sunday the feel good factor will kick in and people will dig deep again, despite the utterly dumb K.O time.
And I wouldn't read too much into the online seating plans anyway.

Im not one for moaning on here but, if they were a fiver then it wouldnt be an issue
as even if you are not working you could still afford to buy a ticket, plus not being in work means you can kick off at 11 in the morning and it wouldnt be a problem. Now by making the the price of a ticket £22.50 then quite simply the majority of us have to work to pay for these prices, so in order to do this you have to go to work which simply means that the vast majority are not going to be able to attend due to being in work, come on its silly isnt it, one of these days the majority of fans are going to wake up and say enough is enough, if everyone decided for just one game to not go and that they either stay outside or at home the implications would be to big to ignore. like i said im not being a doom and gloom merchant I still love being a blue but for how long I dont know, like its been said before we are now not fans as such but paying customers. If I turn up one week then someone else the week after thats all that matters to them.

right, I'll have a little rant now if I may but why do I have pay £2 admin/booking fee (or whatever they dress it up as) for the Reading game on sunday for somebody pressing a bloody button, please illuminate me.
I'm assuming the same would apply for the Kiev ticket, which I haven't bought as yet, waiting on tomorrow night's result yet
