    I'd say it's likely to go to members tbh, probably go on sale in about two weeks-ish. Smaller allocation is 1.6/8k I think.

    I've wanted to go for a couple of years but has been Friday night or over Christmas so am determined to get up there this time round.

    Last time I went to OT, Kevin Phillips scored twice. And we still lost. Not going this time either.

    Going to Arsenal though. I usually pass that one up because it’s just down the road and I can go there anytime; this is the anytime.

    If I get tickets I certainly won't be driving. That didn't end so well last time I drove to Manchester.

    Has Burnley sold out yet? Still tempted by that...

    That’s a long old trek to spend an afternoon on a bleak northern hillside, getting swept away by horizontal rain, sleet and wind. Plus it gets dark there at 3.00pm in winter (and summer).

    Probably be nil-nil too.

    You remind me of my late mother-in-law who would never go to Bampton in Devon because the exhaust pipe had fallen off her car there, in about 1965.

    It’s the closest you’ll get to Accrington this season!

    Yeah I know, probably will give it a miss but if there's tickets left when I get paid...

    Arsenal showing as sold out.

    Though website says the allocation can be increased, never known Arsenal to provide a bigger than required allocation for a league game?

    I’ve been to see us lose so many times at OT. And of course the lovely 3-3

    I was at the Kevin Phillips game too, sat right behind the directors box and nearly had a spot of bother when Phillips scored the equaliser...

    Perhaps I shouldn’t have gone up quite as loud as I did :emoticon-0108-speec

    Any advice for parking for the Emirates? I normally train the last part for london games but it's a bit more awkward with North London.

    Was thinking maybe Wembley or Barnet way? Seems a bit far though.

    Let me look on the map. I found a little car park about 5 minute walk away. Tiny church club car park. I’ll see if I can find it

    How long did it take you to get away? Wasn't planning on going that close.

    Pm’d you. It was ok getting away, but it’s London... so you never know. We also head North from there which maybe easier too.

    I’ve also driven to Cockfosters and got the tube in. Again though, I’m already North.

    Yeah just replied in pm that the two I've driven to in London were Palace and Fulham which was much easier.

    Footballgroundguide says Cockfosters is the popular tube to stop to drive to if coming from North.
