If none of you have got me a ticket yet it would be fantastic if you could get me a half and half scarf as a memento of your day out. i'm sure you'll all have a smashing time in London. if any of you can try and also get to see Leicester Square and Covent Garden as the are wonderful. Buckingham Palace is also quite close.

I'm so jealous. Wembley looks awesome on the television it'll be an amazing experience to be there for a final. So just sing your hearts out and be gracious when Arsenal lift the Cup because we want to conduct ourselves with dignity and pride. Win lose or draw I just want you all, US, to just enjoy the atmosphere on what will be a truly awesome occasion. Go the Villa.

Err, don't know where to start with this! How about the half and half scarf? I don't ever want to see one of these abominations again although I probably will outside VP tomorrow. Gracious when Arsenal lift the cup? Yeah right.

I don't think Peter is being entirely serious.

Absolutely. Had me going for a few seconds though.

funny how official coaches leave at 12 for the final
yet left at 8 for the semi
12 minus 8 = 4
kick off is 2 and a half hours later
and the roads will be busier than a sunday

I know the roads will be busier but we got there about 2 hours before the gates opened

Tickets arrived, block 132 row 1. Not sure I'm happy about being row 1 if I'm honest, it will be if we win though

There was a conservative Prime Minister elected in 1957........just saying.

He wasn't elected in 1957. Eden was forced out due to Suez and MacMillan took over.

WHEN we win

[silhillvilla]

Row 1 is a million % better than row sofa in block living room.

Did mine online in the end and it's 133 for me

It's been mentioned that tickets were being sold on a block by block basis, but is there just a choice of anywhere left online now. Please can someone give me an idea whilst looking for 3 seats together , where the majority of seats are left currently by block no and/or by price please. Not able to purchase till Tuesday and need to be a bit prepaired wen trying by phone and/or online . Is the club also still taking coach bookings, how many full already ?
Many thanks in anticipation. Daz

Get the stadium plan up online and ask them on the phone what's available - you can then see where you are. The bloke who dealt with my phone booking was brilliant and was happy to discuss how best to put the six of us together....not always best on the same row, seats 1 to 6! Know what I mean? Good luck mate. Hope you get what you want.
UTV!

He he, as 9am tues gets closer I'm getting increasingly stressed as to will I even get through and have a chance of tickets. Then have to make on the spot decisions so just would appreciate some likely options based on the ST holders purchased already !
