I'm struggling to think of a fixture I'll look forward to less all season. Chelsea fans, the kick off time, the lack of excitement about the game that's already tangible, Chelsea fans, the pessimistic sense that I'll probably watch us lose to them 3 times this season including twice in less than a week, and of course, Chelsea fans. But I'll go anyway, because if we do win and I don't go then I'll regret it more than I'll dislike being there if we lose. Maybe.

I'm STH/Not, primarily because of the kick-off time, particularly given the possibility of extra-time and penalties.

But some of the enthusiasm from those replying that they are going has already given me a bit of FOMO, so I've gone from 100% not going to 90/10.

Let's see how things go between now and then...

It's one of those where it's a crap draw, but if we were to win then it would be brilliant. Bit like Palace away.

So yes.

Definitely. I'll do what I always do and um and ah about going in a different area then just get my ST seat at the last minute. I was down near the away fans for the Crawley game and it was ghastly.

STH. Not going. Daft kick off time/number of draws at the Amex this season = probability of a train related shitshow. Plus already going to be enjoying the company of our visitors the following Friday.

12:30/15:00/17:30 kick off, I would be going.

I’ve said yes though the day and time is my least preferred match timing. It’s the sort of thing I could find myself saying at Saturday lunchtime ‘nah, I’m having a lovely Saturday, I’ll give it a swerve’.

This is pretty spot on

I'm excited by it. Where's your tangible fug coming from?

Probably not going as my son has something else arranged albeit that has a 50/50 chance of falling through. If that does fall through, we will probably go assuming there are tickets available. If not, we will do Oxford City V Leamington and watch the Chelsea game on the Telly.
