Hi folks considering the ###### the FA have made and the inconveniences that have been put in our way for our little trip to Cardiff, thought I would get the ball rolling at least to help us on our trans Bristol journey. To keep in trend with the tune in most peoples head's at the moment 'Is this the way to Cardiff Millenio The Blue 'n White are on their wayo Dreaming dreams where gonna winno The FA Cup it waits for us Sha la la la ..la la la la la Rovers ..Sha la la la la la la Rovers Sha la la la ..la la la la la The FA Cup it waits for us'

Thanks for that Biddy i was wondering about parking at Newport. Think I might park up at the hotel and then get a cab to the station. I tell you, this had better be worth it - costing me over £300 so far and I got my tickets for free! Yep, I second the trains from Newport as we did exactly the same for the Worthy Cup - although it was Sunday and we parked up early. However, there where alot of Spurs fans there as well and I do feel some people are forgetting about the Arsenal fans ( and possibly MU and Newcastle) on this occasion in addition to it being on a Saturday So unless the intentions are to set off - say pre 8am from Bristol/Newport etc I will take a guess that it will be quite busy whichever option is taken. Just one point - been waiting on the decision re the possible 'special' train and listening to Tom Finn on radio Lancs this is still being considered (waiting on Arriva) - however I feel they have now missed the boat as most people have already started or are already sorted re their travel details.
-
Yes but not to the point that most of these places are mostly fully booked up in terms of accommodation, and would increase the demand even moreso on transport etc required causing more congestion. Remember its not just Flopsy in this position.
-
Lee has the idea of the Footy 'special' been scrapped then? Flopsy get your mail sent to the FA buffoons!!
-
they'll be letting you take bloody pets to make it look like we will sell out! Hughesy As per my post above - I'm on the Cup Ticket scheme and according to them its only one per season ticket holder with a maximum of six per person. You can apply and it will be sorted but only after the others have been sorted for season ticket holders
-
Just for everybody's information. I am on the CupTicket scheme and have just had a call re tickets - we get first option - so it looks like they are on the ball.

Glad you said it Rev and not me as I think I would have been a bit more critical - looks like we are back in the same way of thinking. Anyway, an understrength Arsenal side who up until their goal didn't look interested - think they where looking at what we could do, which in all matter was a BIG FAT ZERO. Awful defending for their goal regardless of who's fault it was considering our new defensive approach , even though V-P finished it well- personally the injury to Matteo was our downfall, as it appeared we lost all concentration at the back when he went off. What is the point of putting on another (awful) midfielder who cannot win a header to support the awful Dicko - when we have another arguably the better striker on the bench? We should have won on Saturday and a bad bad management decision cost us the game - this will happen more if we don't buck up our attacking options and will certainly not bring the crowds back. As Philipl says after that I don't hold much hope for the SF when Arsenal will more than likely be firing on all fronts with their main guns back in contention. Once we go 1-0 we haven't got a clue - especially with Dickov up front on his own. -
Fan friendly my arse. Decent seats £45 ( £35 if you are lucky) enforced on us in all reality. What's all this £4 malarky as well to have them posted to us registered - why can't they be collected? Just gets worse and more expensive the more you look at it. For anybody's interest - My future brother -in law- has just set up his own Limosine Business and quizzed him about it on Friday. Said would probably cost it about the same price as the train - it has a fridge /dvd / stereo etc so not bad - if interested pls pm me - not sure if I will be using as probably going down on mini bus to keep costs down - can fit x8 at a push. (forgot to add - he's based in Wigan so would have to see re cost re picking up in Blackburn etc)

Don't know if I'm understanding you right here USABlue but this is my theory (so don't take it as patronising) The next round of the UEFA Cup - the 2nd leg is on the Thursday before the semi's - hence the excuse from the FA re seeing the involvement of Newcastle - normally if a club is playing in Europe on the Thursday they don't play League/Cup games until the Sunday. Now as well all know - Newcastle had a comfortable 2 goal away lead. However Football being Football nothing can be taken for granted even though we all knew they where more than likely to progress. Now this is where the big ? comes in - which I am hoping is what you are asking - Why must they wait to see what happens with Newcastle - why couldn't they just have called the games as what they are now anyway. My answer as I keep on saying - is because they wanted to show MU on Prime Time TV on the Saturday, of which IMO if Newcastle had been knocked out we would have been seeing at the initial publicised kick off time.
-
Oh look, Rob Coar is on it....... Exactly StuW and a certain Mr Gill Now, just remind me which teams are in the Semis again?
-
But they won't be- as one game is on Saturday and one is on Sunday. So there's no-one travelling from Newcastle or Manchester who isn't staying over on the Saturday night ?? thats ###### mate and you know it ! there'll be loads of them arriving on the Saturday ! Arriving maybe ( missed reading that bit ) - but not leaving And your post just shows exactly what every fan knows - and blows holes in the lies of the bull do dah coming out the FA
-
FA CUP REPLAYS PLAN IN DOUBT Now this is interesting considering the uproar re the semis FA Challenge Committee members .... mmm surely they could kick up a fuss re these
-
Expensive isn't it? 1. Therefore what point was there in waiting to decide who played when? - ans = because they wanted to show MU on the Saturday without doubt! 2. Simple - don't show it on TV - never used to. 3. As for most things thats a personal opinion - think you'll find most fans will disagree and players for that matter. 4. Not denying it is superior - the Final is superior to the Semi finals - see above. 5. Here' s hoping CK
-
But they won't be- as one game is on Saturday and one is on Sunday. All the claptrap coming out is juts absolute garbage. Its been know since last September that the SF would be at Cardiff and now they only tell us they are only just thinking about stuff like security and safety. What utter TOSH!! If its so important to stage them at Cardiff - have them on different weekends.
-
Just a few things spencey7 How many times do you get to Ewood or other away games? 1. We have to play on Saturday because of Newcastle's involvement in the UEFA Cup - mmmm... thing there is a question against this in that Newcastle where already more than likely through - so why wait/ - Its because they wanted to show MU at prime time TV on Saturday. 2. 12-15 ko - There was absolutely no mention of this KO time before Monday - or at least not that I'm aware of 3. The Semi-Final being at Cardiff makes it a proper day out for the fans! - Can't disagree with that - but only when it is a proper kick off time and not when 4 sets of fans are clambering to be in the same place - now they have to set off at ridiculous times in comparison - possibly go around the houses to get there and probably spend more as a result - not enjoy it asmuch as they probably could do. In addition its at the same venue as the Final - and as such takes the glamour element away. 4. How often have you been to Villa Park or Old Trafford? Many a time BUT NEVER for a Semi Final. 5. We will beat Arsenal. - Here's hoping. Don't think anybody is complaining about the distance in general really - just more so the enjoyment and 'normal cup atmosphere' being taken away from the fans. Personally, there is no reason whatsoever for the SF to be played in the Cardiff from a fans viewpoint (especially ours) regardless of tickets
-
More like den is a claret
-
Why dont you email the club with your idea and see what they say? Its worth a try 1864 Roverite /Uddersfelt Inc I mailed StuW on this before he sent his mails Stu - did you manage to include or get a response?
-
Jesus Christ What planet are you on? MU have got one of the biggest hooligan followings going -and there is no love lost between them and the Geordies - throw Arsenal into the pot and the Soul Crew (they where even knocking about when we played there) for whenever UTD go to Cardiff and you have one mighty boiling pot with us lot probably getting the steam from it.
-
Just shows what a cock it has been from the beginning because there has been no mention of the 12-15 Kick off until the draw was made. How many more lies can come out of the Sweet FA. Its all a load of bollux - they wanted to show MU on TV at the 5-15 kick off and don't give an flying figurerine about the fans. There is absolutely no reason why these games have to be played in Cardiff. They could both easily have been played on a Saturday 3pm KO without live TV coverage or at 5-15 at other more convenient venues or Sunday for that matter. Its all lies!. ..... lies! lies! and damn lies I tell you!!!!!! Mother feurklin Tashism Sweet FA
-
Have you seen what the Arsenal fans are saying? Probably won't take as many as they would somewhere else which certainly puts a dampener of the lies that are coming from the FA Get it into your head - this is not in the interest of the fans which is what people are complaining about. Just have a feeling that our semi could be won by the Pubs now.
-
Keep hoping Hughsey as this could well be the scenario now and not just from Rovers fans
-
Not excuses Hughesy , genuine concerns The Semi final is about making a day of it - should be kept separate to stop it taking the 'glamour' away from the Final The FA have probably made it as difficult as they could do for all sets of fans to travel to Cardiff in one way or another in terms of cost, time, safety ease and enjoyment. Shows it all when they where even considering holding the QF at the 'new Wembley'. What next - FA cup Final over two games? Wouldn't put it past the limp wristed idiots at Sweet FA HQ Admit it its an absolute joke
-
Take it you will be going on official coaches Hughesy? Enjoy your 90 mins in the stadium and 3 hours waiting afterwards

Don't go there Dan!!!!!!!!!
