Posted February 26, 200816 yr Just booked my tickets for this. Anyone else heading up for it? The club are laying on free coach and train travel for it. Should be a good day out
February 27, 200816 yr We need to win by a cricket score to gets some confidence back in front of goal.
February 27, 200816 yr Just booked my tickets for this. Anyone else heading up for it? The club are laying on free coach and train travel for it.Should be a good day out Yes mate ~ I've booked ours (2) & I believe Glory55 will be making the journey too!
February 27, 200816 yr We'll probably lose this one. As long as Grant is here we're s*it. Moos, comments like that are pretty pointless. Believe me, I feel down at the moment. Very Down. The recent football has been shocking and I really want to forget the whole episode of Sunday's final. But I still wouldn't post anything quite as negative as that - not when we're playing a team like Barnsley.
February 27, 200816 yr I would like to get two tickets, but they are not going on General Sale. I've managed to persuade a willing victim to take me, could anyone help out? Pretty please. (Nibs - I know I'm a woman and all that, and I was going to Chelsea since I was a little child - but I've always been a passionate supporter and can only apologise for my wish to go to the match)
February 27, 200816 yr (Nibs - I know I'm a woman and all that, and I was going to Chelsea since I was a little child - but I've always been a passionate supporter and can only apologise for my wish to go to the match) Jane I wondered what you were going on about there and it was a case of . Then I realised on another thread I posted about lots of women and kids forming a big part of our support nowadays and the affect that has on the atmosphere. Sorry. Probably sounded a tad sexist. I'm not saying "bloody women, should know their place - shouldn't be allowed to attend football matches etc etc". I know football is pretty much a family thing these days and it's good in a way to see. It's just a real shame that the atmosphere has been hit so badly and Chelsea seem to have been affected more than many. Brings us back to that old arguement of bringing back safe terraced areas - which I'm all for.....................
February 27, 200816 yr Let's hope it's a draw. Ditto. Selfish, I know, but I want the Wigan match to be played on P*ss Up Day ! Then in the replay we can thrash them.
February 27, 200816 yr Well how lucky was that ~ Typical Chelsea DID NOT tell us when the coaches & trains were going to be put on the web site ~ I took a quick look & got two of the last seats on the last carrige of the last train! PHEW All FREE travel has now gone!
February 27, 200816 yr Author Just checked now and they are indeed all sold out, no idea how I'm gonna get to the game now.
February 27, 200816 yr Don't worry. Rumour has it that they are laying on another train. Keep looking at http://www.thomascooksport.com/football/ Member's match ticket sales happen tomorrow. News of a new train no doubt to follow.
February 27, 200816 yr Author If not then my Dad has said he'll drive up. Either way I'm happy as long as I make the game

February 28, 200816 yr Author There is indeed another train. on the Thomas Cook website now. Cheers, saw your post and rushed onto the website and booked three places on Carriage E.
March 1, 200816 yr Author Great, I can't get the time off work so I can't go I could try and push my luck and just not show up, but tbh I need the money with Uni round the corner and plus I enjoy it.
March 1, 200816 yr Alan - do you want to sell your tickets? I really want two tickets, so if you do PM me, if you would. Many thanks Jane
March 1, 200816 yr Sorry Jane, my sister is going in place of me with my Dad and Brother. Oh well, it was worth a try. BTW in my delight at the thought of getting a ticket I totally forget to say how sorry I was that you weren't able to make it. My apologies and I am really sorry. Still, if anyone else can get me two tickets - I would be most grateful! (Well not that grateful, but you wouldn't really want me to be that grateful anyway.)
March 3, 200816 yr See you you all there. Depart Coventry 9.00 am Arrive in Barnsley 12 ish Where is everyone meeting up before the game for a beer or two.?? Carefree. Mick.
March 6, 200816 yr Not much to add but I was getting sick of seeing the CC final being on the front page as it was the last to have a reply. Come on Chels!
March 6, 200816 yr good thinking gem. lets bump all the other thread and have any mention of the cc wiped out.
