But of course, I think we'd already got that bit of the discussion sorted out.

because there's a borderline retarded mong involved apparently.

Well to start with if you started calling me a mong and borderline retarded I'd personally make sure that you never got another ticket for SMS in your life. I'm sure the Ticket Office have read this thread, they usually do. You just had to check with your bank first, if the funds have been transferred then your application has been processed and all the hassle is avoided.

We never did get to know what Saint 67 is reading though.Could you start a thread about that?

So in fact if you had just waited until the tickets are actually sent out this thread would never have existed, is that right?Why did you ring up in the first place and harass an already over extended ticket office? Sometimes you've just got to take people at their word, the lady said it was AOK in the first place and so it was.I can understand the apprehension and not wanting to miss out but with all the big games they've had to deal with in the last few weeks you've just got to trust them and let them breathe for a while.

don't you get three and your out in the UK then? good job we don't live there then, my Mrs hardly ever gets her PIN right first go.

They probably would; Now if you do some quick fag packet maths 44000x£34 (mean ticket price)=1.5 (approx) million £. We can make a bit in short term interest on that sort of sum before we hand it over to the Football League. Not a lot maybe but when combined with all those £3 handling fees it will probably pay Rickie Lambert for a couple of weeks.

Does he actually have an a Mong ?

Perhaps they'll give you one of those new KDDI models.

many will take their wives/husbands who have no interest in football really. It will be a jolly day out though. Still you pays your money and you takes your choice.I really don't think the ticket office expected to sell up so quickly.

I think they do actually but about 50% of the juvenile population don't bother to turn up,mainly because of Happy Hour at the pub starting at 9 am and the queue for breakfast burgers at Mc Donald's being so long. Every time that I'm in the UK (not frequently I'd admit) there seem to be kids on the street at all hours.

If you intend to mail Mr Cortese I suggest you get a translator to help you, I can't make out a word you write, he might not either.You say you made a written application and have your tickets, before that you say you haven't. Nicola won't understand until you make up your mind whether you have tickets or not.

as i said yesterday on another thread you need to look at (if you are inclined or interested) at the football league article 68. Not specific to the FLT but to competitions with final phases on neutral grounds in general. There is a 'pool fund' which takes something from every match and half the final game receipts (including advertising but not television rights) after all deductions are made. The two finalists share the other half of the final match profit (not revenue but profit after all deductions, travelling expenses for the teams etc) In the round matches it's much the same as the FA Cup, 45% of profits to each side and 10% to the pool fund.The pool fund I suppose provides the prize money plus a share out amongst all the participating clubs.Although it will be a great day out for us all at Wembley we are putting our money into every other League 1/2 clubs coffers. As for the TV rights I guess the Football League just gets to keep them, maybe part of it goes to the pool fund and is shared out..couldn't say.

Nope, I want them to get weeny weeny weeny infraction penalties for every time they spell definitely incorrectly. The rest I can take but there's no way that it can be spelt definately and pronounced correctly. Even the Yanks don't do it so why should we. It happens about 50 or 60 times a day at the moment, must be the word in the English Language which is spelt incorrectly the most often.As for the plowed field jibe yesterday the bloke wants shooting. We have a fair number of overseas posters who are not of our nation, we could at least honour their presence by not making the same error time after time after time. Once again this is just my personal opinion,me being a throwback to the time when a education was something of value and not just a pastime until you got your first UB40 to fill out. Rant over:smt012.

Probably not but who cares, I don't go in for "friends" or social networking so I didn't accept anyway. No offence meant though, I just don't see it as being genuinely meant this olive branch. Justice has been seen to be done, that's OK.

Obviously not , but at least a token fee keeps away some of the stranger element.Mind you if it was down to me there'd be literacy fines as well, but that is a completely different matter.

:)

Looking forward to that, thanks then Ponty, there are too many idiots on this board. It should be members only.

Well I'm not going to let it drop, someone, somewhere WILL apologise to me.

so why does he post as he did then?? Get him to apologise tomorrow or it won't stop there.

Thanks a bunch, and of course an explanation from the culprit as to why he saw fit to act in such a manner. I'm not joking Ponty, until he apologises in public then I won't drop this. I have been accused of racism, let him stand up and apologise for it, if you won't make him I'll PM the owners and get it done. Sorry to be heavy over this but I couldn't see any jocularity, let him explain it to me in public.

Ploughed, for those who try to understand estuary English.

not on that subject he doesn't. I protest I want you to do something about it,

Toyota Cars I think.

Well then the real admins should do something about it. I don't mind being called up for bad language, untoward remarks or whatever, I can take the rough with the smooth but when someone suddenly accuses me of racism when there's nothing of the sort in sight well that's a job for Baj and Steve.
