Posted April 15, 200718 yr Okay, I know its early, but this is a major final, it deserves a big build up. Of course, we've got plenty of matches to go before this... injuries, form, confidence etc of both sides could change, either for the positive or negative. Come on the Chels!! Edit: Loz, sticky sticky?
April 15, 200718 yr You're right, it's still early but it'll be the first FA Cup Final at the new Wemberley so it'll be massive and deserves an equally massive build up. It's just been pointed out on MOTD2 that we could conceivably play the Mancs 3 times in a fortnight. I'm staying with my non-forecasting of results superstition, which means I'm merely quoting what Lee Dixon or whoever it was said. And as Jose said, we could win the lot, or we could lose the lot ... and in the meantime, a hell of a lot can and will happen.
April 16, 200718 yr It has to be payback time for '94, that still hurts to remember and is probably the last time I had tears in my eyes due to a Chelsea result, apart from winning the title 2 years ago.
April 16, 200718 yr It has to be payback time for '94, that still hurts to remember and is probably the last time I had tears in my eyes due to a Chelsea result Easily my most painful memory as a Chelsea fan. I can still hear that shot from Peacock canon off the woodwork.
April 18, 200718 yr my first real heartbreak as a Chelse fan was that final, been a few since then, but as rod Stewart sang "the first cut is the deepest!" I only hope we don't have a ref who is so blatantly on the take as last time! I also think it is amazing that we could be the team to win the last FA cup final in the old Wembley and the first team to win in teh new Wembley. Now I am not predicting, or saying that it is our devine right to win, but I just think it would be a great little anecdote in teh FA Cup history, Chelsea's history, and the history of British Football Scott
April 26, 200718 yr I will be there with / without a tkt. If any spare tkts come available.(Long shot I know). Please do not hesitate to call. My new contact number is 07979022119.( With thanks to a so -called work colleague F@rking thief) P.S . Apologies to all concerned.
April 26, 200718 yr Bennett's the ref in the final. Oh, I do like Steve Bennet, almost as much as Rob Styles. They rarely screw us badly.
May 4, 200718 yr I know I'm probably going to get hammered for this but a big chels man over here has some contacts with multiplex over here, as do I, and we're both tryng to get over there for this. I imagine that if we do, Nibs, Liam or G4 will be fallin over themseves to put me up.
May 4, 200718 yr just because I don't agree with some of you're views or even necessarily like you, doesn't mean I won't wish you good luck- the more fans and less neutrals there are the better as far as I'm concerned.
May 5, 200718 yr ?1900 for a ?95 ticket or ?1700 for ?80 ticket. 50k tickets to fans 40k tickets to touts who can charge prices like that, FA has a lot to answer for. http://www.euroteam.info/eventdescripti ... ntid=33392
May 8, 200718 yr Author Edit: Loz, sticky sticky? So many lines...so little time... Bit late aren't you Bri? Did that ages ago
May 9, 200718 yr Bit late aren't you Bri? Did that ages ago You're a gal, Gem. You of all people should understand that it's better to be a bit late than a bit early...
May 9, 200718 yr just because I don't agree with some of you're views or even necessarily like you, doesn't mean I won't wish you good luck- the more fans and less neutrals there are the better as far as I'm concerned. I'll second that. No hard feelings. Emotions can run high at times - especially after a defeat and especially against bloody Liverpool in such a huge game. And Youlots, I am sure Jose will put you up Anyway, how long have you been in Australia? I have a couple of old school pals that emigrated back in the late 80's and early 90's. Big step. Did you used to attend at the bridge prior to that?
May 9, 200718 yr Crap! Just saw Jose's interview on the Beeb site in which he said Ashley will play in the Fa Cup final.
