The FA Cup Final: The Arsenal v A.Villa

[TheCook]

Sounds like we are being allocated the East End of the stadium this time

[Robin_L]

AKA the loser's end

AKA the loser's end

But bollocks. If Wenger doesn't gash the team sheet by picking Chesney, we will beat Villa 4-0. €10 going on.

[I Hate Hleb]

Given our traditional dodgy defending DB10, you'd be best off putting 5 Euros on 4-1 and another 5 Euros on 4-2 (although in the likely case that the pole starts, put another couple on 4-3!!).

Oh don't worry, Hlebby - the 4-0 is the bet I shoot my mouth off about on here! I'll have a couple of back up bets on 4-2 and 3-1.

Is it reverting back to the 3pm kick off this season ? Not confirmed on FA website but thought I read last season was last 5pm kickoff.

BT's coverage is starting at five so it's not looking like a 3pm kick off which is a f***ing shame

BTs coverage would be better if it started two hours after kick off.

Quoted €1099.00 not including flights by Abbey Travel in Dublin. Ticket , club level, and 3 Star Hotel

Without flights? Shower of robbing bastards. I'd be careful there BWK tbh. There are a few Dublin travel agents that have fucked over people for cup final tickets over the years, as in you arrive and there's no ticket.

Obviously I'm not accusing Abbey Travel of anything. Obviously.

Abbey are reputable but that price is prohibitive, heard the stories DB, knew lads who were standing in a hotel in Paris with an hour to kick off before the Champions League Final after paying a fortune for the trip while the "travel agent" was shrugging his shoulders saying "what can I do ?" Some tickets did arrive, but not enough and those tickets were in Barca end.

They probably won't show the game now. Instead they'll screen some three hour documentary on old Stampy Meee.

They should have killed him dead.

The amount of Oirish Gooners that travelled to Paris both with and without tickets in 06 was incredible. A lot of them obviously had no hope of getting their hands on a ticket but so many of them said things like "I just have to be at least in that city". I had been working on various firestopping jobs in Dublin airport for years and had seen the small (Manure '99) and moderate (Mousers '05) numbers of Oirish fans of those clubs that had flown out for their finals. But in 06 Dublin airport was bollock full of Gooners flying to Paris. Everywhere you looked it was Arsenal jerseys and flags.

Have to say I was proud to be a Gooner that day.

Ya, I went to Paris without a chance in hell of getting a ticket, just had to be there. Booked my flights a couple of weeks ago for the cup final for €26.50, couldn't not book them at that price. Probably haven't a hope in hell of a ticket this time either but I do know a guy that sometimes swings club level tickets so here's hoping.

The FA have said that they get a bigger TV audience for evening ko so I'd say it will be around the 5pm kick off again

[Gunnersaurus]

Taking their time to announce ticket details ain't they.

[OneBardGooner]

No chance of getting a ticket But will go to one of the local pubs (N5) and soak up the beer, the Atmosphere and enjoy the parade the following day (I hope)
