Community Shield Tickets

Paz · 7th July 2008, 11:00

I don't have the privilege of being a ST holder, if anyone has any spares from now til KO, pls let me know!

manxmanc · 7th July 2008, 11:01

They'll go on general sale...

Lizard King · 7th July 2008, 11:07

You know if you're going yet manx?

A1Dan · 7th July 2008, 11:16

Don't think I'm going to be able to make it after all, due to several reasons. One of which is cash - I'm meant to be selling on more home tickets to recoup the cost of the ST this year, not paying out to go to meaningless tin-pots against Portsmouth. Shame though, would be a fun day out.

I don't know, seems like there is a ballot for ST holders and 'incase of any remaining tickets' they'll offer to One United members, etc - doesn't that imply that they expect them to be sold?

gaffs · 7th July 2008, 11:30

Would have gone, but im going to England V SA in the cricket that day.

Tickets were on general sale last year.

All ST holders will get them, and probbaly all members, in which case theyll go on general sale, like last year.

Utd heap · 7th July 2008, 11:38

They will go on general sale.

No doubt.

Paz · 7th July 2008, 11:50

Lizard King · 7th July 2008, 13:56

Yup, or Cockney Cunt as he's also known

Will get the train down early on the Sunday, probably get hopelessly lost in London though.

Utd heap · 7th July 2008, 13:57

Early...

noodlehair · 7th July 2008, 13:58

You'll have to get a very early train down mind, where you going from? They take forever on Sundays...

Its an awkward one for me, I'd have to come over on sat stay in manc/london for 2 nights and take the mon off work, even though it sounds a great weekend, I'm not sure if I can afford it/get the time off work.

Will look into it in the next week or two.

Lizard King · 7th July 2008, 14:07

From Norwich, getting the 5am train to Liverpool street before figuring out how to use the tube to get to Wembley.

manxmanc · 7th July 2008, 14:08

PM Shane or someone else from souff

That's where I work!

Liverpool Street to Wembley Park is a simple Metropolitan Line journey - 25 mins or so....you can't go wrong.

I've got similar issues. BTW - trains are currenlty worse on Saturdays... West Coast mainline is shut and you have to go via Sheffield.

Lizard King · 7th July 2008, 14:23

What do you do there?

If it involves food, I'll have some freebies please

Utd heap · 7th July 2008, 14:27

It's alright Paz and Manx.

I've set Lizard on his way with top class directions.

Lizard King · 7th July 2008, 14:29

It was like you'd just shown me an ordnance survey map, only better.

Can't wait to end up in Carlisle or somewhere.

Lizard King · 7th July 2008, 15:03

Do you reckon if I try to get some free food at the station by using "It's ok, I know Paz from the internet" I'll be successful?

Utd heap · 7th July 2008, 15:03

I can't see that failing to be honest Lizard.

Bah, this is getting to complicated...

I'd have to:

Boat IOM > Liverpool
Train Liverpool > Sheffield > London (Is this right?)
Then back again.

Plus find somewhere to stay Sat/Sun..
