These were the seating categories for the EFL Cup final last year. One assumes it'll be a similar breakdown for the FA Cup Semi

For the first time ever I'm in the first tranche. Permission to be smug m'lud

I see we're in our usual end of the stadium then...

Perfect

Why would our allocation be any different (give or take a small number)? (I don't mean to ask that in a snarky way, I'm just wondering why all 4 semi-final teams wouldn't get the same allocation?)

Funny old things these polls...

I tell a lie. Just seen that said fanfare tweet was posted yesterday. No mention of the seemingly reduced allocation though

I don't recall the club posting their usual "we've sold out!" fanfare tweet either. They usually shout such things from the rooftops when they occur. Something doesn't quite add up here, f'sure.

-------------------------- McCarthy -------------------------- Cedric ------ Hoedt -------- Stephens ----- Bertie ---------------------------- Romeu ---------------------------- ----------------- Lemina --------- Hojbjerg ------------- ------- Sims ---------------------------------- Gabbi ------- ----------------------------- Austin ---------------------------- Subs: Forster, Yoshida, JWP, Tadic, Redmond, Boufal, Long Can't find a place for Guido (if Austin is fit)....

Cheers for that nta786. So, on the balance of probability, us being on the Sunday seems more likely than us being on the Saturday. Not conclusive by any means, but on probability....

I've no idea. Was Bruce Forsythe worth 10x Bobby Davro?

Man Utd v Spurs will be the 'main game' of the weekend. Looking back at previous semi-final years, what day does the 'main game' usually take place, the Saturday or Sunday?

There is no 'agenda pay gap' (in my humble opinion). You pay people what they are worth (in media terms, that means who is likely to draw in the largest audience by virtue of their presence). McEnroe is bigger box office than Narativlova, ergo he gets paid more. Not rocket science.

Easy one. League. (Assuming we'll need to get at least a point from the Chelsea game to stay up. However, if the Chelsea league game turns out to be a 'free hit' (due to our other results) then the answer is 'cup'... Basically, on reflection, there's too many unknowns to be able to decide definitely)

Yep, agree. Hughes does feel like a good fit, based on his interviews and the game yesterday. I'd be inclined to extend his contact regardless how this season ends up.

Cheers. Thanks for the insight... appreciated

Just back from the game. One of the more interesting 436 mile round trips I've had (re: the road conditions!) A game of two halves... Literally One observation: Lemina looked strangely subdued today - looks a bit unfit? Wembley here we come

...

I'm not planning on driving back within the next 4 hours

Made it! Hardly any snow up here. Roads were fine after M6 Toll. COYR!

At Stafford services. Well, that was fun. Took me half an hour to get up the hill near my house. The M3 and M25 were OK but the M40 was dodgy in places. Roads much clearer after the M6 Toll road.

Heading out now. Mental road conditions in North East Hampshire... Might see you there!

Source? (Horse's mouth vs Twitter rumour.... Or somewhere in between?) Cheers

Anyone know what kit we're wearing tomorrow? Asking for my son....

Cheers for the heads up John Boy. That's my usual route. So, M4 -> A34 -> M40 it is then
