just booked a 16 seat stretch hummer for the day of the semi's :mickey: (closest smiley to the one with sunglasses tbf)
I think LP should apply to st holders as well. Bunch of ****s just sell or pass off the brick games and give it all the lip when real madrid come knocking.
And dont even start on wembley. brick stadium, corporate gets all the tickets, less tickets for real fans than before the rebuild.
Billy can I come?
Got any chicks?
Durham banging the drum for a date change on TalkSh#te tonight.
Short memories, in the time I was listening not one mention of us playing Seville Thurdsay night and Chelsea Sat dinnertime, a few seasons ago.
Of course not, we still arent a Sky baby!
Here we go again..... I reckon my 756 LPs as an ST holder count for plenty, and frankly, whether people like it or not, more than 756 do for a member. There, I've said it. I get your grievance on STs with next to nothing vs a member with umpteen hundred - makes no odds to me on that front. I'd be confident of still getting tickets for almost all games (failed through official channels for Dublin this year, which was the first time since Nijmegen.....). Although I do still wonder why people with that number of LPs don't have an ST - sorry, I am just totally ignorant on this front having never known anything else for the last "GHod knows how many years".I think LP should apply to st holders as well.

But thanks for tarring us all with the brush for ****s anyway. Appreciate it.
sorry man the strippers have taken the remaining spaces im afraid
That is a very valid point, I absolutely agree. I got my timing just about right in getting my first ST back in about 1999 before there was a waiting list. In those days I didn't have the cash to go to away games as well - other than in London. Then I got a decent job and now the only limit is how tinkled off the missus will be when I sacrifice another whole weekend to go see Spurs at world's end! My (almost two-year-old) daughter is now on the waiting list for her second season and is up in the 17,000s. She has a long, long wait ahead of her.I have 602 points as a member and the reason I don't have a season ticket is purely because of the waiting list. If I could have got one when I started going to 25-30 games a season around 5 years agao then I would have. However I do think that the OP describing all season ticket holders in that manner was a bit harsh!

Although all that said, there are stupid discrepancies in the award of LPs too..... I mean really, Kazan/Donetsk(a) the same as Wigan at The JJB?! Please.
We all sometimes miss the good'uns..... I was in Cyprus on hols when we beat them earlier this season. I pretty much got slowly drunk on my own, although the German barman at the resort was a friendly sort. For some reason he didn't much like the Gooners and was very efficient at serving me more beer when I ran out (very German). My missus turned up at half time having spent more time in the sun by which time I was half cut. She wasn't impressed! Ha!I'm on 147 and not too hopeful. This is more than the Chelsea CC Final and Pompey Semi cut offs I think, but I reckon the bulk of the Spurs fans ahead of me will also have increased their totals too. I think demand will be higher than Pompey too.
That Pompey one was a sickener - I had a front row ticket for the Arsenal game originally scehduled for the same day. It got postponed to midweek, when I had already booked a holiday. Tried to part exchange my NLD ticket for one for the semi, no realistic takers. I had hoped for a straight swap, with me paying the difference as a Wembley ticket would have been more expensive than my NLD ticket. Nothing even close, would have been willing to pay over the odds a bit, but people were wanting something ridiculous.
Ended up selling the ticket to a mate at face value, Danny Rose humped it in from 40 yards and I got drunk on my own in a bar in Nice.
I agree. How can you get 3 points for going away to say Norwich but only 5 to go away to Rubin? Those sorts of fixtures should be 10 points at least.
It is, but I also think it qualifies us to have rather a larger reward given we typically take time off work, have to spend time away from family, and spend four or five times as much for the likes of those games as - say - Wigan/Bolton/Norwich/etc. I think that deserves a higher number of LPs than a "regular" Premier League away day.I kind of disagree on this. The people who choose to go to those games get to experience something completely different to any other type of match day. That in itself should be some reward.
