Train I'd get if we get there goes through Peterborough, so would probably prefer Oxford!

Question: given the two teams in the other semi, would folk rather play a final at say Villa Park rather than Wembley?

Peterborough/Oxford are unlikely to fill a half, and neither are we nor Barnsley, though we may come close.

Wembley all day long

Not like you to predict a poor turn out 🤣

Got it a bit wrong last time too!

Don't know how many would be sold- price would play a part maybe- but this has a bigger "prize" at the end of it.

I knew you wouldn’t let it go😀

different beast this short turnaround for tickets & travel compared to 6 weeks or so for pizza and also more expensive 

i will go with previous finals as a marker

Time is a factor for sure, and as you say, so is cost.

Just have a feeling that if we were to get there, given our surprisingly decent crowds this season, that we would have a decent turnout. 

Not going to take 40k like, hence my question about a half-way ground, but decent nonetheless.

When Oxford played Coventry in the equivalent pizza cup they took 30k like I said further up be like reading 95 outnumbered if we was to play them

Son of whisky nose is an annoying prick

We took more than that this year.

 

[Burndens Bogs]

It was Wembley centenary last season and we were there.

As we had a lost season with covid, this is the adjusted centenary! 😁

Need to be there again. 

Need to borrow that injured white horse now it's been patched up.

Fuck that 

Villa only holds 42k 

Some teams could fill it on their own 

Big games deserve big venues, for the players and fans

Never liked it myself. Terrible location overpriced and over rated.

I was living in Oxford at the time and still live in Oxfordshire. They did indeed take that number. The vast majority have never been since and never went before. But it's a short train journey - direct from Oxford on Chiltern Trains. Easy peasy for them to take a big following.

I’m swithering, need to know what the kick off time at Wembley is asap so that I can secure flights. Prices going up daily…
