FA Cup 6th round - home to Olbiyun

[frankmosswasmyuncle]

It's very funny how many of them are bleating about how hard it will be to get a ticket. Maybe if you went to games more fucking often you'd get one a lot easier. Wankers.

You would think the club operate a loyalty points scheme or something but we don't. We left our tickets for the Blues game in one big free for all where the 6,000 or whatever it was went within two days. Then we had problems as the system has been altered and only allowed you to make one transaction per ticket. Basically, it was a real mess and hopefully the club have rectified it.

We tend to have our larger followings in the cup matches - there is no doubts that this will sell out.

I am slightly worried that I won't be able to get a ticket. I'm usually at work when they're being sold and our place is quite strict on our internet policy. I'll be pissed off if I don't get a ticket considering I've only missed two games all season and many of those who got tickets for Blues did so because they were cheap and the game was only round the corner. Funny that we haven't seen many of them since..

Get a mate to get one for you Liam, using your ref number or whatever your lot uses.

Coloured beads?


Sorry.

Do they even have computers in Yamville?

Can you get someone to phone for you, with your ST details? I've done that before for a game when I know I'll miss out on tickets if I don't phone before 9.30 in the morning and I have to work.

How hard can it be to do what we do? Stagger sales using a priority system based on booking history. That's shit to just sell them as a first come first served, meaning someone going to their first game in a decade has as much chance as someone who never misses a game.

Hear, hear.

Get a mate to get one for you Liam, using your ref number or whatever your lot uses.

That is what we normally do however the club operated a one per transaction and one per season ticket meaning you couldn't buy tickets for your family or friends.

I would bloody hope that the club have ditched that system.

[cdbearsfan]

That's a stupid system. If you and your mates have to phone up separately, how do you guarantee you'll be sitting next to each other?

In fairness, the odds are very high that they'll always be sat next to someone they are related to.

Get a mate to phone twice then, pretending to be you. He could wear a false moustache, shades and put on a silly voice.

Cunning!

They'd never know mate!

[cdbearsfan]

I don't think putting on a silly voice is going to catch out anyone who works in West Bromwich.

You couldn't.

You had to speak to the club and ask for certain stile-cards to be allocated together.

They made a complete and utter cock up.

Perhaps it was meant to be some kind of bonding exercise thing.

Back in the day I often made my students change their usual seats so they extended their experience and relationships in the classroom...sit next to a girl for a change or someone from a different ethnic group. Usually worked pretty well.

I blame Michael Gove.

Liam, will the Baggies fans be arriving by their usual form of transport to Villa Park?

Pride of the Midlands at stake here...

Not until another Midlands team beats 7 Titles, 7 FA Cups, 5 League Cups, and 1 European Cup.

I think our former number 7 might be taking the piss.

Number 10 (as I call them) wasn't he?

Number 7 Chico, Number 8 McMahon, Number 9 Lochhead, Number 10 Vowden, Number 11 Anderson.

Til we bought Ray Graydon.
