Will be buying mine on the gate tomorrow, and I'm bringing a few friends. Watch out for the gingers invading Block 15!

 

[ccfchandsy]

Got mine today block 15 as always I'm the one who apparently looks like Danny dyer lol as if

 

[ccfcway]

i reckon we could fill the stadium if we got there, never mind 40k,

 

[melbourneskyblue]

taking my mate tomorrow. He's a Leicester fan but wants to watch a real match for once.

How can you have a friend who's a fester fan ?!?

Luton wanted more but the FA said no because of health & saftey, because it would meant mingling the two sets of fans outside the stadium using the same turnstyles (load of bollox) Scunthorpe only took 12k and just about filled the lower section, the top teir more or less completely empty on their side :thinking about: never any trouble between the two sides...

Last season at Wembley for the final of Chesterfield v Swindon there were 50,000 fans there.

But let's just forget about the joke cup right ...... cos it's embarrassing.

:facepalm:

 

[Otis]

40,000 the previous season when Carlisle won it and the season before that, there were over 70,000 there for the Southampton final.

Anyone who says City fans won't be interested in a trip to Wembley for the JPT final is completely deluded.

How did I end up with two Fester supporting brothers?

Glad i'm the eldest and they had no chance of making me one of them or I would have been interbred as well

 

[mhuntcov1989]

Long shot but anyone know of a link for tonight's game... i'm sure when I was watching Sheff Utd's last round tie on sky they said our game with them will be televised!! Must have imagined this.

got a horrible feeling we will lose 301 tonight but trying to keep positive!

IF we got to final how much you reckon covs allocation would be? 30k?

Just checked myp2p and theres nothing, seems the champions league is more of a priority for sky

If anyone has any doubt what getting to Wembley would do for the club, have a listen to Sillett speak about it. From 3:30 on this clip -

Tonight's a huge game.

 

[harvey098]

Luton took 40,000 to the final in 2009, they filled half of Wembley... do you think Cov would match this ?

I was there as my Stepdad is a Luton fan so they are my 2nd team. Was an awsome atmosphere but couldnt help spending the whole day wishing it was a sea of sky blue instead of orange! Maybe this year eh ;-)

bloosy hell, you'd get some odds on us losing 301

 

[sky_blue_up_north]

I think this is a huge game for us. A great chance of Wembley. We're not in bad form so think we have great chance of winning tonight. Plus a fiver to get in, what a bargin.

 

[Marty]

I'm working so won't be making it tonight, I really fancy a trip to Wembley. Will we be playing in 2 finals. 1 for the northern rounds & then for the whole competition?

working? Call yourself a real supporter??

 

[Macca]

I see tears and disappointment tonight

 

[LastGarrison]

I am going tonight which, I think, puts me on par with The Snoz as an uber supporter.

 

[kg82]

I see tears and disappointment tonight

Hah, I've been thinking that too! Quarter final against sheff utd - bad memories

 

[Macca]

God that was shocking wasn t it? We'd done the hard work, beaten Liverpool and Villa away and then got sucker punched. I watched the replay under the old East Stand as I did the Villa game. Very depressing evening

 

[kg82]

Yup, that was our chance. Newcastle in the next round who were awful at the time. Bottled it!

 

[Macca]

Although some fans ran onto the pitch black pitch with their old fellas out which was quite amusing. (not me)

 

[jimmyhillsfanclub]

That QF should never have gone to a replay in the first place....

...I remember the game at HR with a particular fondness as it is the only game I ever persuaded my bird (now my wife) to attend with me....

...we got pissed before KO & then she had the pleasure of watching me smoke & swear my head off for 90 mind in the WT....

...How we didn't win that game, I'll never know.


Anyway.....I think we'll win tonight.....but I'm not going.....I'm one of those shit supporters you read about on here

 

[Marty]

Didn't we almost lose that game in the end? I seem to remember oggy at the half way line giving the ball away and sprinting back.

 

[jimmyhillsfanclub]

Thats rings a bell Marty....

...Although I also seem to remember us hitting the bar right at the death too....

...but I was very, very drunk!

 

[Marty]

Seems it did happen.

That is correct although it was nearer the 18 yard box and "sprinting" may be a little kind to oggy there! For pretty much all that game we battered them though.

 

[skybluelee]

Completely and utterly battered them in the first game. The replay is the game that upsets me most in 29 years of following the club. Newcastle in the semi's, who weren't playing well at the time, whilst we were on fire with Dion and Huckerby tearing sides to shreds. Such a missed opportunity.

 

[kg82]

Didn't they equalise in the last minute of normal time in the replay? David Holdsworth?

Same as (though it's 31 years with me). Went to every cup game apart from the replay, where I was at Walthamstow dogs of all places. Horrible, horrible experience listening to the pens.
