Quite a conundrum. Good chance that you’ll be able to pick up a third ticket. If not, one son could have a semi-final ticket and the other a final ticket with a lower probability.

There's a thing, why is it so late this year*?

I always thought it was the first Saturday of May, and before the European Cup Final, which I believed to be the last European game of the season?

Totally agree. I would very much miss the trip to Wembley and the experience, but...…...

Friends booked me into a flight to Croatia from LGW that day. Take off time? 16:50 FFS!

So. Let’s just say we make the Cup Final, for maybe the second time in that persons life, with the likelihood that we won’t make it again for another 30/40 yrs and therefore again in that person’s lifetime what’s to say that’s not as if not more of a unique event than a close relative’s big day?
Of course if it was their offspring etc then fine but I’d have to be persuaded pretty well as to the various pros and cons of crossing in this case.

May 18th you say Andy.
Well just checked my shift roster (yes [MENTION=11350]LamieRobertson[/MENTION]) I do have some time off, before you indulge in a bit of light banter.
OMG I'm actually off, so I'll see you fellow Albionites at Wembley.
I'll be the one that looks like Gollom
Gollum on a bad day.....

I always thought, did you miss that bit? I wasn't saying I was right. I was just of the mind that it was generally what I said.

If we got to the Final, my biggest fear now would be getting a ticket. Have to do some corporate scrounging as I wouldn't be eligible-for.

Yes, I and my wife are camping with others that long weekend, and I said to them from the outset, that on that Saturday, I might not be around, should the Albion make the final. A few months ago, they all laughed, but the chances are becoming ever greater, but after tonight, we will have a clearer idea all round. We are near Peterborough, so the 50 minutes by train into Kings Cross is half the time it takes from Hastings.
