    Yeah I'm looking now, it currently says that "in order to purchase a ticket for the semi final you need in your basket one new membership + 1 game".

    So if I get a membership and a ticket to, say, the Bournemouth game I can get a ticket today it seems.

    I assume by doing this I will only be able to get 1 semi final ticket and if I wanted to take my old man aswell then I'd have to do the above twice and buy him a membership and ticket separately?

    They guy wants £700 for the corporate stuff so this will be cheaper and without Chelsea fans, so seems a win win

    Not sure if the Bournemouth game counts. Looking at it it seems you have to have a purchase history from this season.

    I can't help but think we drag these things out too long tbh.

    Cool I'll just give them a ring and see what they say, probably easier just to chat someone over the phone than **** about on the internet.

    Well I am meant to be going corporate, but until my friend confirms times etc I bought a cheap £30 ticket as well just incase. Sort of hoping the corporate falls through as much rather be in colours and amongst my own.

    If this was a final we'd sell out instantly - however, no one realistically thinks we'll win this and it is a lot of money for a day out.

    If I do it on the cheap (which it would be if I go on the £30 ticket), it is

    £30 - ticket
    £40 - train
    £40 - expenses during day (food/drink)

    That is £110. It is only me... a family or even 'Dad & Son/Daughter' would take a lot out of the weekly budget. And it isn't even a final. If we get that far, gotta to it all again in under a month

    £40 Drink money seems a bit optimistic. I reckon it would be more

    £30 Ticket
    £40 Train
    £100 Food and Drink
    £40 gambling money
    Miss the last train home. £150 hotel
    All bets come in wake up Monday £300 up. :1980_boogie_down::1980_boogie_down:

    If we win this hopefully the squad will actually start fighting if it's for a place in the final.

    Might give us the boost we need to stay up

    This is exactly my feeling, which is why I decided not to go this time.

    IF we get through, I'd hope to go to the final (cue arguments about who deserves tickets for the final more, those that went to the semi or STHs that chose not to go to the semi....) but could not justify paying that total cost twice in the space of a month.

    For some reason loads of tickets in the lower tier have gone back on sale:

    They should really make this available to anyone with purchase history on Monday but we really drag these things out.

    Might not sell out otherwise!

    Be interesting to see how Chelsea's sale of tickets is going too
    I still can't believe we haven't sold out for potentially our last horray

    I think we drag these things out tbh. Too many windows and too big a gap between them. It should go to all with purchase history from Monday.

    Agreed it would be pretty poor if we didn't sell out but can't really say a lot as I'm not going currently.

    Yeah it would be pretty embarrassing not to. Don't think City did last year either

    That's even worse really. Surprised me that they didn't take a full allocation at St Marys last year too.
