FA cup semi final - not going

[Bladeloyal]

There's nowt like coming up wembley way .it's worth the ticket money alone

 

[CarlMcBlade]

We won’t be embarrassed, there’ll be bigger gaps in the Manc end.

 

[SwissBlade]

Let's cut to the real issue Swiss. It's the damn half and half scarves that are putting you off going.

Sales are down since "Thirdies" started getting released. For the semi final i'd priced up a nice run of 38 halfies and i was getting em made for 20p a go in the sweatshop of a well known crustacean fella from here.

But then i see that a rival has brought out "Thirdies" - Blades-ManCity/Wednesday because as we all know, all Man City fans love the pigs. I was also waiting for the date to be confirmed so i could put that but oh no, these "Thirdies" come with an Iron on 2 and 3 which you stick on your self.

As a wise man, silverfox , and I discussed some years ago.. don’t let 90 minutes determine a good day out at football. Family Hillmorton will be going.

 

[metalblade]

I can understand the money being an issue but Christ we do have some miserable bleeders as fans. In our last relegation season no one gave us a prayer away at Man Utd but it was one of our rare away wins so who knows. Only going when we look like we are favourites to win a game is the Wednesdayite attitude, their next home gate will be well down unless they manage to beat Cheltenham.

 

[Rodders]

I’m not going; my missus is away for her 40th so watching with Jr on the tellybox. Might buy a shitload of Lego.

 

[CrookesBlade]

I’m going. Gonna be a great day out and chance to show our support for the team going into the run in as well as appreciation for a great FA Cup run.

A no lose trip to Wembley. If you can afford it (and many can’t, it’s a bit of a stretch for me at the moment) then why would you not?

 

[Kevincarterversion2.0]

Money is unfortunately, a big issue for a lot of people right now.

[Pollingtonblade]

I'm not going I'm taking kids to Cardiff game, I did think about it but can't justify the cost to get sunburnt, dehydrated and the deathly journey home after another defeat.

 

[Northernsoulblade]

I will be in Cape Verde but will be there in spirit come on blades

 

[Harry's Game]

Unfortunately the late kick off time means I won’t be going, would only attend by train and got family commitments Sunday so an overnight is out of the question.. I have a feeling we will be going back again for the play offs anyway.

 

[sportinguista]

Sorry to inform you then , we also lost to Hull .

But it was a cracking day out, great game to be at...except for the idiots feytin

 

[Frankie as in Howard]

Looking at the ticket prices from previous years, I’d be amazed if we sell out.

The regulars with the highest loyalty points will snap up the cheaper categories leaving the more casual fans to decide if they want to pay £120, £100 or £80 a ticket.

You wrong the dearer tickets tend to sell out first and tickets are from £30, for adults with cheaper concession tickets

 

[Dkc]

Not going. On holiday then, but even if I wasn't I'd not go due to being skint. Was at the two previous Wembley semis (Hull and pigs) as well as play-offs. If we miraculously get to the final, I'm definitely there.

 

[Isar]

I will be there and looking forward to it. I did miss the Hull semi-final because I was working abroad.
I don't understand the apathy of some of our fans, the team deserve support after their magnificent efforts to get this far

 

[Slug]

Shameless post alert.....but if any of the ST that arent going, would like to be generous and allow me to use their ST so that the minibus we have going down can all sit together in the ground, then please DM me as it would be greatly appreciated.

Also have 2 spare seats on a minibus going from Chapeltown if anyone is looking for transport.

 

[metalblade]

When people ask why no investors with serious money decide to buy this club just point them to this thread, I'm shocked at the negativity on display the team deserve much better support than this.

 

[Mumbo]

Disagree with that last sentence mate, have you ever come home from Wembley after a defeat before??

3 times with my own dad and made special memories.

 

[SwissBlade]

Many thanks to those regulars who are not going, it will make it easier for me to get a ticket. Your sacrifice is appreciated.

No bother, a pint will do me fine

Definitely no lose for me with my 5 year old son being a massive citeh fan, one of us goes home happy I have a feeling it might be him.

Brighton shared prices but not date!

Map of the ground from the Brighton website. Some bargain prices. I mean, that view from the blue seats at the back of the lower tier behind the goal for a mere £65 is to die for. Imagine how good they'd be if you could also see the other end?

 

[Jon Bon II]

Worth £80 just to see Dozy introduced to the fans just before kick off.

What makes you think we'll get there next year as well?

 

[blackydog]

Do we know what day and time it will be played at?

No mate but there's a thread covering that.

Isn't that a misnomer? It's actually Olympic Way?

 

[S64 Blade]

I get people not going for financial reasons or prior commitments, but not going because we’ve lost there before is a bit daft.

I stand corrected ,

 

[Flippity Gibbert]

I agree. If we say we are not going to games because we are likely to get beaten, does that mean if we go up then we don’t go to half the games next season?

 

[Slug]

I get people not going for financial reasons or prior commitments, but not going because we’ve lost there before is a bit daft.

Or just because it's City and we might get battered. God help us next season if we do go up!

Totally understand the financial reasons though, it's going to be an expensive day.
