only1swanny Posted March 4, 2023 Posted March 4, 2023 Not sure if I'm going yet. Wife and kids want to go but some times we have to learn to say no to stuff Quote

Buf people seem to think we're likely to sell out at the Pizza cup. I'm illustrating that for a far more prestigious competition, with a far better team, with less tickets available we still didn't achieve that. Quote

Imagine we’re successful and an absolute great game. They’ll never forgive you if you aren’t there. Quote

Anyway if it works out too dear just say they can't go and go yourself. Quote
stevieb Posted March 4, 2023 Posted March 4, 2023 Must admit the cost of taking 3x hangers on for the papa John's is making me think I won't tell em if we get to a play off final! 🤣 Quote

I've not been to any of the pspa John's matches so far. Quote

People holding out for play off finals are the ones that didn't go seeing us get dry bummed by Stoke hoping we got to the final. Quote

radcliffe white Posted March 5, 2023 Posted March 5, 2023 And the prices jump a fair bit for the play off final Quote

I ain’t going papa John’s, it first final I’ve missed in my life time but logistics from Spain are just to complicated & expensive, and tbh not that bothered anyhow, I’ll be there if we get to the play offs, no ifs buts or maybes.

I had tickets for Everton away 2004 when my lad was born on same day at 10-30, told my mates to pick me up 1pm at Chorley hospital, when they duly arrived, decided reluctantly not to go… was a close call though 🤣think being up since 2am when wife’s waters broke swung it. Best sleep ever that afternoon.. and we lost 3-2. Edited March 5, 2023 by Mounts Kipper Quote
green genie Posted March 5, 2023 Posted March 5, 2023 strange how we went from opening day free for all on bottom tiers to a regimented take up of top block Getting transport is proving to be a nightmare and probably keep down numbers, but we’ll see Thursday when go on general sale Quote
