FA Cup Final

[Shaggy]

We've got the other end I heard. Can't remember where I saw it now.

Heard somewhere that we've been given the east side of the ground - is that the same as the semi final and the Carling Cup final?

We've got the other end I heard. Can't remember where I saw it now.

I'm fairly sure it was earlier in this thread

Edit: Maybe it was the semi final celebration thread.

Which end did we have for the semi final?

Cos we've apparently got the east for the final.

Banner for the final

I saw this flag on facebook today too, but in the space between the two sentances it said Chelscum.
I like the flag as it appears here but hope it doesn't get lowered in tone in the finished article. Our humour is better than crude insults, we leave that for the opposition.

[Shaggy]

I've just this second seen the 'Chelscum' version on Facebook too - as if the real banner will have 'Chelscum' on it. That stuff is way try-hard.

I don't think the ticket allocations should be a problem for Chelsea. They did not even sell out the semi.

[danperkins]

I will no doubt be accused of being contrary, but is no-one a little uncomfortable with the mixing of the JFT96 message and fan rivalry/pisstaking?

Liverpool boss Kenny Dalglish says fans are 'taken for granted'

Rail maintenance work on Network Rail lines over the bank holiday weekend mean only three trains will run between Liverpool Lime Street and London Euston on 5 May, with no return journeys available.

Didn't realise this. Shocking

[Craig_H]

That is shocking, but it's the FA who are ****ing things up - these railway works have been confirmed for the last 18 months, the FA could've had the final on a different date (why isnt it the last game of the season anyway?) but no. Plus the later kickoff time is done purely for money reasons too and doesnt help.

I did wonder whether the difficulties in getting there and getting home again, might put a few northern based Reds who qualify for a ticket, off from going.

But i think there are proper train services running from Manchester and Crewe anyway, so it isnt that far that people would have to travel.

We had the east end for the semi.

[Craig_H]

We had the east end for the semi.

So we've got the same for the final.

Shaggy reckons we've got the other end though.

Where did you hear we've got the same end for the final?

[Craig_H]

I didnt hear we'd got the 'same' end, i read (on RAWK) that we've got the east end - so that's why i was asking which we'd had for the semi final and the Carling Cup final.

[PTP]

i won't be going to the final - the carling cup final and the semi final last weekend have taken it out of me....mentally/physically/financially

So it's my Dad's turn to take the ticket.

[Craig_H]

I've got the feeling i wont be either.
