[Albion] Man Utd v Albion: will you go?

[Drumstick]

Provided I can get a ticket for my son then yeah I’m keen to go. But will have to wait and hope it doesn’t sell out immediately.

Was lucky enough to go for the league game so will give it a swift dodge and be an armchair fan if I can’t go with the little un.

Are you going?

No because I can't afford it also I went to the PL game there and stayed overnight

Ticket bought this morning. Pretty pointless post considering from where I live I can travel to OT on train and tram for nothing on my bus pass.
Although I may struggle to get home in time for the start of Match of the Day!
One of the times that 'swings and roundabouts' fall in my favour.

 

[Magic Sponge]

The later kick off has made the decision easy for me, won't go now.
At least I was able to get there earlier this season.

Nope. Got a family so aways are a no no for me financially. Lucky to have a ST in the NS. Plus it's on the box [emoji106]

You didn’t miss a thing. Brighton never turned up and by then rusting Wembley had lost its magic.

I was desperately trying to revise for my final exam which was the following day at Liverpool University whilst being distracted by the impending match and commentary. It was a depressing day.

I feel sure there will be.

We are in line for a heavy defeat so will go for whatever TV channel shows it, we should pick up a very good payout on gate and TV payments

Good job we don’t all think like that. I was at Anfield both times we won and wouldn’t swap those experiences for anything. No doubt there were people who didn’t go then thinking we would be stuffed.

 

[Normski1989]

Yours?

No! But not one that I can get out of.

Undecided, so not entered poll. Am staying over with eldest for Everton and can’t justify cost and being away another w/end in March. Earlier KO time would have been an easier decision.

You do realise that Chris has to rest his best players for the coming league games,still if you think its worth the cost and time,good luck

We don’t play for two weeks after the cup game so hopefully not too much resting required.

 

[ac gull]

Currently undecided

Potential for a very late finish means staying over is sensible option - but makes expensive - which is hard to justify given is on TV

Plus assuming VAR maybe in operation - those in ground will have no clue what going on - those watching on TV will see all the replays etc

He doesn’t *have* to. He rotates his squad for the cup games to give fringe players game time and try out different options. But not because they need a rest.

Brighton took a huge army of 42,000 and Notts County just 17,000. Lloyd was outsmarted by a young Warnock on formation and tactics. There were some really good players in that Albion squad, despite the club being skint as usual.

 

[Official Old Man]

Despite being so angry at the time, off course I've got a ticket. But again I will say THIS IS IT. Last season going away as it really is getting stupid how the TV companies think they take priority over us minion.
Really feel sorry for Wigan & Saints who wont know there dates until next week because BBC & BT cant agree which game they want to show.

Yeah, like the Coventry game. Might only start with £25m worth of strikers.

I don’t expect us to win to be honest, but would be so gutted to miss it if we do. Got to go and shout for the lads. It’s the magic of the cup, innit [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

Never took 42,000 to that game

 

[redoubtable seagull]

Nah, my Cup Final was against Palace. I’ll leave the glory hunters who couldn’t be arsed with that game to scrap for the tix at United

Shame that those that went to Boro don’t get first dibs for United tix, they are the most deserving of getting a ticket imo.

I suspect those that went to Boro will tend to be the ones who go to loads of aways and will easily have enough points for first dibs on tickets.

Just looked it up in Tim Carder’s book. It was 32,400.
