If we do get to the final and play Utd, not only will we be in the Europa League next season, win or lose, but we will also be in the Charity Shield, assuming Utd go on to win the league. We could be at Wembley three times in a matter of months!

Wouldn't charity shield place go to league runners up in that scenario?BL3 wrote:If we do get to the final and play Utd, not only will we be in the Europa League next season, win or lose, but we will also be in the Charity Shield, assuming Utd go on to win the league.

Re: FA Cup Semi Final Ticket Rush
I always thought the charity shield went to 2nd in the league in that case

Re: FA Cup Semi Final Ticket Rush
In that case we'll just have to win the F.A. Cup to ensure that we're in the Charity Shield.
Beating Utd twice at Wembley, now there's a thought...

Re: FA Cup Semi Final Ticket Rush
Stoke fans seem to think we've returned some of our tickets?

Unlikely, I would have thought. They are on open sale until the 13th and are available in person at Bolton central this Sunday.adamworthy2002 wrote:Stoke fans seem to think we've returned some of our tickets?

Re: FA Cup Semi Final Ticket Rush
That's what I thought, besides they wouldn't be able to sell returned tickets anyway due to them being in the Bolton end?clapton is god wrote:Unlikely, I would have thought.

Re: FA Cup Semi Final Ticket Rush
I was at Wembley for the Spurs v Portsmouth on a £30 ticket and although there's a fair distance from the action, it feels a bit special due to the great alround view of the whole crowd.
For the final, I was only able to get an £85 ticket through the good offices of a Pompey season ticket holder.

Looks half empty.
You can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks.
Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's staring right back.

Re: FA Cup Semi Final Ticket Rush
Portsmouth didn't sell all theirs, probably due to them restricting sales to people with a booking history - given that their capacity is 20,000 (including the away end) they'd probably struggle to find 32,000 different people who'd been to a game that season.Lord Kangana wrote:Looks half empty.

That's by the Globe Theatre on the South Bank. Go there and you'll miss the game.scfc-in-peace wrote:i come in peace.Lofthouse Lower wrote:Apparently their lot didn't have to pay any special delivery shite charge....

Well done.

Unlucky, we paid £5.25

Haven't heard that and I would doubt it would happen We were allowed two tickets per season ticket holder and lifeline members before going on open sale. They are still on sale with, I believe over 80% sold. I don't care why we haven't sold out. I and most of the Bolton fans I know WILL be.
