Bollocks. Was hoping we'd be overlooked and get a nice big away following. Ho hum.

Everyone should use this game to forget about the League push the boat out and see it as a chance to take as many as we can and try and enjoy ourselves, god knows we need it, I was at Chelsea and haven't seen scenes like that for ages, kissing strangers, hugging Chelsea stewards and rolling down the steps and that was with about 1000 of us, Imagine taking 8000 to Arsenal and winning.

Get your pass outs, get your hair cut, find your old Adidas Samba's and your sergio tacchini tracksuits, drink 10 cans of Stella an the 9.15 from New Street, Sing your hearts out on the Tube to Finsbury Park, Meet me and the Kingston massive (if we get tickets) in the 12 pins, stop traffic with silly dancing at the traffic lights, march en-mass to the ground and   LETS AV IT like its 1981!!!!   

Churchillian, kingthing, Churchillian. though I'd draw the line at Sergio Tacchini, nothing less than Hugo Boss for me these days. ;-)

Well lets hope the result is different - we lost 2-0 back then.

Any news on tickets yet?  Pravda seems very quiet on the issue.

If Arsenal stick to their Category B policy for cup games, it should be £35.

Are ITV and ESPN waiting until after the 3rd Round replays before choosing their 4th Round games ?

If so, I guess that's why TicketPravda is silent at the moment.

Think I'll give this one a miss and go to the league game instead down there.

Good on them for the free coaches but it will ensure a greater percentage of pillocks as per Chelsea away that time.

£35 and free coaches? Sod it, I might as well go. Will miss the drinky in London but it's worth it for that price.

Usually you don't get to drink outside the ground when you use official travel, but we did when there were free coaches to Chelsea. I think the weight of numbers turns it into a logistical nightmare which leave them with no alternative but to let us loose on the streets of London for a couple of hours before the game.
