trousers Posted 16 March, 2018 Share Posted 16 March, 2018 (edited) Can you still buy tickets for this game or is that it nowI thought it was a bit odd earlier when I noticed they've stopped selling them on the OS. Appreciate its too late to post them out, but one would have thought they would keep the remaining tickets on sale for collection from the ticket office only. I guess they might still sell them to anyone who enquires in person Edited 16 March, 2018 by trousers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordswoodsaints Posted 16 March, 2018 Share Posted 16 March, 2018 Tried to get 3 tickets at about 5pm but they’ve already sent them back to Wigan so they suggested I ring the Wigan ticket office and I was told that they can’t sell me a ticket but I can pay on the turnstile.....don’t know if I want to chance that so I’m going to source tickets through other means.

SfcPhil Posted 17 March, 2018 Share Posted 17 March, 2018 I have two tickets available as I can no longer make the game, if anyone's interested at face value £20 each and can collect from Totton today please get in touch.

Really dont want to drive to the midlands and find it is cancelled tomorrowThere isn't much snow forecast for the Wigan area over the next 48 hours, so zero chance of the game being called off I would venture. Possible significant snow forecast down here though, so you've probably made the right move by staying over half way up. Indeed, you might be the only one who makes it.

The fa cup has a rule (or did) about the semi final being played at a neutral ground to ensure that there is no home advantage.

angelman Posted 17 March, 2018 Share Posted 17 March, 2018 Looking forward to tomorrow but realise that this could be Hughes's honeymoon (and no longer) and if we don't get a win but helps him find out what's what, then a shame but so be it.

John Boy Saint Posted 17 March, 2018 Share Posted 17 March, 2018 For those of you in the north of the county over in to Surrey Camberley etc, who might go via the M4 and up to the M40 via Maidenhead the A404 is closed at Marlow up to the M40 junction at High Wycombe, also the M5 has painful roadworks from junction 3 up to the M6.

So, M4 -> A34 -> M40 it is then Bite the bullet with the M6 toll AND keep your eye on AA Roadwatch for the pain in the bottom roadworks on the M6 from Sandbach to Holmes Chapel for a possible detour onto the A34 from junction 16 at Stoke.

I've just driven back from Leeds to harrogate, no idea how i got back unscathed. Couldn't get up a hill, so turned round, nearly slid into two parked cars at different times, I'm really not sure how i didn't crash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
