Uncle Malc doesn't even know what day it is anymore. I think he may actually be dead but they aren't telling us. Not seen him on tv or anything for ages.

Probably been disguising himself so he can do secret scouting of Torres, Hargreaves, Kaka', Ronaldinho etc

He probably finds it challenging to scout around his toilet seat at the minute nevermind Torres, Kaka and the like.

Is it just normal seats aswell? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

the figures were the cheapest of the 4 10 year seat options the highest was somewhat more

Its £135 a game assuming ten games a year obviously if there were 13 games a year it would 'only' be £100 a game

yeah, piece of cake. never been any trouble in the past.

will be absolutely furious if we don't get cup final tickets. even with the amazing season we've been having on the field, various stuff away from the actual games has been making me more and more disillusioned with the game. sounds a bit melodramatic i know but when you expend so much time and money following your team only to not get tickets for the big events (because someone who's just got their season ticket and has never applied for an away ticket in their life, or now seemingly because the FA have sold off half the capacity of Wembley to faceless corporate non-entities), you start to wonder what the f**king point is anymore.

it's like wining and dining the girl of your dreams, getting her back home and then some random butts in and has his wicked way with her (there's an obvious, FC United themed continuation of that analogy but i don't think i'm quite at that stage yet).

nick, you don't have to be at that stage to go to fc - plenty do both to satisfy their needs. having a mistress, you might say. she doesn't make the same demands of you and is fully aware of the full time commitments you have with the other half.

I agree with Nick, it's heartbreaking (dramatic I know) when you apply for aways, get chubbed and then you see hoards of ***** dressed in replicas (generally foreign), not moving and filming the game with a bastard mobile phone/camcorder.

You have the likes of James07?/his parents that travel all over, iirc they've done all the euro aways this season, it comes to arguably the biggest game of the season so far (semi) and bam they get chubbed whilst some ****** who hasn't been to any aways gets a ticket.

Dreading what the criteria for the cup final will be and no doubt we'll see the same replica clad muppets filming the game.

it's an utter disgrace, no doubt Chelsea will get the same allocation as us even though they couldn't be arsed to travel 4 hours to Manchester.

<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content"> The Final details

Wednesday, 28 March 2007.

The FA can confirm that this year's Final of The FA Cup sponsored by E.ON will be played at the new Wembley Stadium on Saturday 19 May.

We can also announce that The FA Carlsberg Trophy and The FA Carlsberg Vase Finals will be held at Wembley Stadium on 12 and 13 May (respectively) at a capped capacity as part of the build up to the official opening on 19 May.

Ticket details for all FA Finals will be announced in due course, however please note that tickets for The FA Cup, The FA Trophy and The FA Vase Finals cannot be purchased directly from The FA.

The vast majority of tickets will be allocated to the two competing Finalists; for security reasons, there will not be a neutral section for The Final of any FA Competition. Once we provide a club with their allocation, it is entirely at the club's discretion how they re-allocate and sell these tickets to their supporters. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

fingers crossed then.

nice work icon_biggrin.gif

yeah, i see your point. i should make more of an effort to get along really, there's just something about only going to games when there are no big united commitments that doesn't appeal - feels a bit part-time maybe.
