Hey guys! I hail from New York originally (currently living in Boston) and I’ve been a Blues supporter for about 8 years now. I didn’t fully appreciate the beauty of football until I started playing FIFA in college, but I immediately adopted Chelsea as my favorite team. I was mostly drawn to the amazing skill/power/size combo of Didier Drogba who remains my favorite player. Some other favorites over the years include Lampard, Cech, Mata, Hazard and as my username suggests, Malouda. Best moment as a Chelsea fan so far was easily the champions league final against Bayern - that header by Drogba was out of this world!

 

I will be visiting London for the first time next month. I am really hoping to catch the game against Liverpool while I’m there. I’ve been doing my research and have come to understand how incredibly difficult it is to get an affordable ticket, especially for an opponent like that. If I get a season membership, is there any chance I would find a ticket on ticket exchange over the next month? I’m guessing the odds are slim for that game. If not, will I have any luck checking a resale market at the last minute? I understand scalping as we call it is illegal over there. If tickets are hard to come by, what bar would you suggest watching the game in?

 

Thanks for the help guys. I know there is a ticket request thread but I am not allowed to post there yet, and I wanted to introduce myself anyway. Looking forward to my visit and possibly meeting some of you. Go Blues!

Can anyone who is familiar with ticket exchange assist me?

For most games, there's usually a few tickets available on ticket exchange. But for this game, demand for tickets is very high so it's very unlikely you will get a ticket on the exchange for this game. There are some ticket agencies that offer tickets or hospitality, however you'd be looking at at least £250+ from one of these agencies. Unless you get very lucky, best bet is the pub! Lots of pubs near the ground to watch the game.

Hello, I’m Drew from Philadelphia and a huge blues fan.  I will be traveling for the Nov 11 game against Everton. I am an international member hoping to purchase tickets when they go on sale Oct 1. How fast do they sell out? Is it safe to assume I will be able to purchase? Can’t wait for my trip across the pond! Any insight is appreciated!
