And, if so, are you going to skip the semi-final? :jester:

I've been for England games (shitty band, loads of tourists, people more interested in throwing paper aeroplanes), for a random (Spurs v Portsmouth - full of tatoo'd Portsmouth freaks, and LADS who all looked like Gav from Gavin and Stacey) FAC semi-final, and for two games at the 2012 Olympics (ra-ra-ra, awful atmosphere) but none of those matter - this will still feel like the first real visit.

I haven't been to Wembley except for a stadium tour...

I keep forgetting that we have played there against Spurs (which disgusts me personally as it should be sacred). To me, when those boys walk out for the first time in just under 3 weeks, that will be the FIRST time in my eyes.

Been numerous times for England, and went last season for the Spurs game. However, let's be honest, all of those are pony and don't really count. The semi will be a REAL visit, and if we were to get to the final, that would be a REALLY REAL visit!

I went to the England v Chile friendly a few years ago, and last season when we played Spurs.

I've been there for a couple of FA Cup Finals and the Championship play-off final. If I'm honest, I preferred the Millennium Stadium for atmosphere and the steeper stands - but it'll be very special to see Albion there nonetheless.

Been for one England game, Spurs away game last year and a work conference.

Expecting my next visit to be more exciting.

Not been. I’ve not been avoiding it, more I’ve had no reason to go. I’ll be there for the semi.

Will be first time for me.
I was hoping to be able to get tickets last year for the away game, but wasn't able to.

Looking forward to it immensely

I use to work in Wembley and from my office I watched the arch going up. I vowed I wouldn't go to Wembley unless it was to watch the Albion. Had a long wait but went last season for the Spurs game and last year it was the finish for The March For Men.

Can't wait for the Semi Final, it's going to be a great day.

Did the cup final, we have not done the Spurs fixture as it's not 'earned', so we will be going to the semi-final.
