Has it ever occurred to you that if you weren't such a pessimist, you may not have to spend so much time in the rose tinted past ?

Near as damn it. Of net receipts, 10% to the pool and the balance split between the teams.

So because the price doesn't meet your approval you are not going? Good - more tickets available for people who think the price is right for an FA Cup tie against a top Premier League team. I'm sure the club will have no trouble selling out at that price and could even have priced it a little higher and still sold out but then you would have accused them of ripping the fans off. Or they could have priced them at your price and sold out so quick that you weren't able to get one.yes it does because i would have gone if the tickets were cheaper

You could get 8 H&M t-shirts retailing at £3.99 each, or two copies (two!) of The Complete Prisoner dvd boxed set (£17 each) or four brand new copies of Mein Kampf (£8 each), all yours to keep and own forever for the price of the cheapest Amex ticket for 90 minutes of transient cup football Das. It makes you think.

if the price was right they wouldn't have dragged it out this long, I think you'll find there's plenty more with my attitude to this game that don't post on NSC ,but if you want to pay more for this game I'm sure the club would be happy with a donation from you

Although it may appear so, I don't think he is even that old. I think he ages with me, more mid/late 70s

I think they are trying to sell the tickets in the fairest way possible - if they wanted to sell them quicker I am sure they could have and it would not have have been so fair.
I will be in my regular spot at the ground on Sunday thanks!
