My kids are grown up..with their own kids so we go on holiday as and when we want.

Yep, me too.

It was originally spurs away

I wouldn't have missed that.

As much as I like BHA and have done for 50 years my life does not revolve around international breaks.

Mine does. Was going away this week but builders in at home.

Oh and I’m going to Cuba in September before I know the fixtures that’s how I roll!!

Dom Rep for me in the September international break, but I wait for the fixtures so I miss a dull away game. Newcastle last year.
But you might be correct, BHA shouldn't rule our lives.

On holiday for the first week of April, back on the 9th. Also meant to be in Spain on 18th May for a 50th birthday, but only booked the wife’s flight so far!

Reading the recently released ticket info has made me feel rather sad....bittersweet moment.

Didn't pay much attention to what weekend it was going to be, but just realised that we're travelling down to Tenby for a few days on the 6th...

Looks like I won't be going the priority of who can buy totally get but 10 tickets per transaction, just means a bin fest for reselling sites.

Only if the 10 people have fan numbers and enough points - no reselling at all

Thanks for letting me know...it did occur to me that this might be the case...but of course in true internet style rant first check facts later ��

It's live on the BBC so if you have the IPlayer app, you can watch it on your Ipads, phones etc. Although that doesn't help abroad.

ManC have struggled to sell their semi final allocations a few times now. I don’t think there’ll be touting profits to made with this semi final, 90,000 will be more than enough.

I had a quick glance at a City forum last night and their view was as you suggest. It will drop to a general sale for them and not sell out.

I'm due to fly home on April 7th, from Rome (ship in Civitavecchia). I've asked my reliever to come a few days earlier, on April 3rd in Dubrovnik. They have agreed, my line manager has approved the request, now it's just up to my head office in Miami to make a decision. It all depends on flights booked, hotels reserved etc.
I am just a bag of nerves sweating on this!

May the football God's smile on me just this once; I've missed so much over the years. Pray for Smudge!

If it doesn't come off, I'm happy to lead the "justice for Smudge" campaign.

With my wife and kids in Cape Verde. Going for 12 days. I have looked into flights back. Would only cost me two days of my holiday, £900 and my marriage.

... and the negative points are?

Not a STH or bronze member so won't be at Wembley but happy with the Saturday slot as opposed to Sunday for TV viewing.

I can go, (STH), but my usual football buddy can’t.
I’m not sure that I want to go alone, also worried that I won’t find the coach to travel home on! In previous seasons we used to travel on one seagull travel bus to Amex and a different one home (now it’s the same both journeys) and I used be wandering around the coach park looking for it for ages!
Yes I know I’m a wimp!
