Yes, it's on telly

But this is the second time in 50 years

It might be the last time we play there...equally it might be the first of 3 visits in a few months

I'm not chancing missing out if it's the former

That's the way I see it. And I don't rate my 'open sale' chances of getting a final ticket if we do win.

Perhaps its my usual negativity around big games. Perhaps its because I can't see how we'll cope with Holden out. Perhaps its because I overrate Stoke.

Who knows....

But I have a feeling in my water that those who are "saving it for the final" are going to be mighty dissapointed!

tell you what...

those of you who are going - go! enjoy yourselves! have a great day out - memories for the future - take photos - show the grand-kids - wave your knobs on wembley way!! seriously - have a fantastic day!

it really can't make it better or more enjoyable for you to have a random pop at those of us who are not going, can it?

Would help if you could actually get through to the ticket office!

Yeah you have kind of. The club have, rightly, learned from Cardiff and looked after the ST holders. I don't think any ST holder has ended up unhappy at the ticket arrangements and the selling arrangements.

What I'm saying was they could have used the opportunity to drum up much interest from the town. You can see the front pages now with Coyle's air-brushed white smile inviting all-comers to join the rest of Bowton down in the smoke for a banging day out and support the club.

They've probably made the right decision by not doing. But they do still have the chance to over the coming week.

So you mean publicising the game? Can't see that making any difference personally. I get what you mean but folk know we're at Wembley. They're either excited by that or not. I don't think a "call to arms" for a semi final at Wembley is appropriate. For a crucial relegation battle at Boro then yes maybe. But not a game this big. Folk either want to come or they don't!

Aye but how else to stop Stoke fans buying our tickets for example other than requiring a previous buying history?

Not sure the club can be blamed as they are offering an alternative. If its literally just anyone ring up, who knows who might buy em?

Would love to go, but will be in the US. If anyone knows a pub or TV station in the Chicago area likely showing it, I'm all ears.

If there's a replay, is there a date reserved for that ? (And for a replay, it's level after 90 mins or 120 mins ?)

And when's the final date ?

Only 6 blocks have good availability now. Rest are either limited seating or sold out. Looks like we've sold quite a few today. COYW!

Setanta have the bloody rights for all but the Final.

It's probably only on free to air because that and the world cup is on a Government list of Sport events that must be free.

Gets sillier...I am actually on the database but not enough points or something, funny how I can get the more expensive tickets though. Teach me for being priced out of standard games I guess, oh for the days in the rain at Aldershot and Southend :)
