Champions League - Wembley "1882 section"?

[Benjamin]

I've definitely lost my mind, cause I'm clearing out a sizable chunk of my savings to make all three matches. Fly out of LA on Tuesday, arrive in London midday on Wednesday. Grab a bite to eat and make our way over to Wembley. Drink a copious amount, watch Spurs from the peak of Everest, hope we win. Hope even more that I remember the match after drinking that much. Fly back on Thursday. Rinse and repeat for the next match.

Thats 3 in the corner.

Losing your religion?

And you'll be next to the Monaco firm, tasty.

You joke but the French have some violent factions. Here's two firms squaring up against each other a couple of years ago (spoilered for graphic content)

At least by the time I get through I'll know what the draw will be.

 

[Nick "Trevor" Sharp]

Got all my tickets on Friday.

71,352

That's a lot of tickets

 

[Oracle]

I just bought 10,000

Can't wait for BL.

If anyone cares this was my last trip in a nutshell: Left San Diego around 7 AM on Tuesday. Didn't sleep a wink on the plane. Arrived at Gatwick at around 11 AM on Weds, got to my friend's flat by around 1. Drank beers & ate some food at his place. Eventually made our way to Allsop Arms in Marylebone. Got to Wembley way earlier than needed and by the time the match kicked off we had completely sobered up (good chunk of my friend's are in Club Wembley, so they were texting me pics of beer before kickoff). Took an hour and a half to get back to central London and after being awake for 40+ hours probably slept for about 11 hours.

Rinse and repeat here in about a month I suppose.

How many tickets per member?

50,000. Fuck's sake.






Edit: 1 package or 1 ticket. You're having a mare Sal.

You just know even though they've made it clear this is the singing end some gormless cunt will turn up telling everyone to sit down or not swear in front of his kids or wife, despite having literally the rest of the stadium to choose from. They should put a massive warning when you're buying these seats. same in the new ground too.

Got me thinking, we could break the record for the highest ever attendance in the history of English football for a home attendance.

Apparently due to the speed of the tickets selling Michael Evis is considering letting Spurs headline Glastonbury next year

 

[John Thomas]

Would love it if we do... but considering the pricing I think even if we do sell out there'll be plenty of people who only actually bother to turn up for 2 or even 1 of the games. The team in pot 4 could potentially be someone like Besiktas, APOEL, Legia Warsaw, Viktoria Plzen...

Just accept the fact we're a massive fucking club with a massive fuck off fan base. If this was Chelsea for instance they'd be advertising throughout the media to try and half fill the place.

 

[Nutter-Naylor]

Can't believe there are sections in the lower level that are nearly empty with only 10 days to go.

Badly managed by Spurs. They should have opened all of the lower and middle tiers at the same time and held back the upper for general sale. Shambles.

 

[DeeGee]

Almost sold out again for the third time.

 

[1882]

If we want to make a statement about our intentions in the CL this needs to a time to fill Wembley with real Spurs fans and make some noise, I really hope the club haven't Fxxked up on this.

I'm sure we'll sell out... or close to it.
And to be fair, if it turns out there ARE a coupla thousand Yids who DO wanna sing, but who are dotted around the upper tier then maybe it's no bad thing, as the atmosphere, or attempts to get atmosphere going RIGHT around the ground might he aided by 'those in the mix'...

I accept my challenge with due diligence!

 

[Raiders]

It is a sad state of affairs when Woolwich fans think expensive tickets are actually a good thing.

 

[DeeGee]

Monaco have sold about 350 out of an allocation of 4,500

There's no Marina's at wembley, therefore no Yacht parking

 

[Biff]

Fill your boots. 2 minutes ago.

I've got the multi game pack but that is incredibly irritating to see those prime blocks behind the goal suddenly become available late on. 'UEFA Confirmation' bullshit - it's the second group game, how could it differ from the first. Have they suddenly become aware of 1,300 people on their guestlist who now can't make it? - In those parts of the stadium?! Bollocks.

I miss the days of logging on and easily buying tickets against Qarabag
