The "Im not going to wembers thread"

[BringBackSwales]

I just dont want to give the FA ANY more of my money just yet

They pissed me off by dragging us all down there for the semi debacle just to line their own pockets.

They are getting 2 fingers off me and I will donate £10 to a charity of my choice instead and listen to it on the radio....im going old school for it

hope there are not too many BLUES like you otherwise our end will have a lot of empty spaces or a lot of rag scum in it. You are entitled to choose not to go but why make a thread on it?<br /><br />-- Tue Jul 26, 2011 2:15 pm --<br /><br />

Surely a large percentage of ticket revenue will go to charity/ community - not the F.A?

exactly, good point, well made

Was over for the semi final and the final, each one costing comfortably over €300 when you take in flights, accommodation, tickets, spends etc etc. So unfortunately I'm going to have to give this one a miss in order to recharge the wallet so that I can get over to the odd game during the season.

Fancy missing out on Segio`s debut

The fact that a large percentage of the gate (£2 million in 2009 I read online) is a good reason to go. Add that to the fact that tickets are cheap, it's against those rag tw@ts and will be anything but a friendly then I honestly can't understand why people aren't excited by this game?!

On a side not I'm going to this with my old man who was away for the semi/final and he's offered to drive. I said fair enough I'll sort the car park out. £27.75 for 3-4 hours parking is a bit of a piss take don't you think?!

i fear what is to come in 12 months time :

that's it. i've decided that i'm not going to the european super cup final in a stand against uefa. asking us to traipse all the way to munich for the champions league final was bad enough, now they want me to go to monaco to watch us play against valencia! well fuck that, i won't be ripped off. i'll be watching it on teletext. fuck 'em.

"marquee game" my arse.

Its none of your business why people go or don't go, the match to me is totally meaningless, I won't even be watching or listening as I have something better to do. The season starts the following week, then it will get my full attention.

Not going due to finance only - not too gutted about missing it though.....well done to all those going.

Exactly, the fact that this against the rags, at wembley means I certainly don't have anything 'better to do'!!! Listen to Slurs comments about this, basically saying this year the community shield means a damn sight more than if it was Chelsea/Arse etc.

This if defo NOT a meaningless friendly in my eyes.
