That’ll do nicely. Probably the most expensive chicken balti pies in football.

Magical.

Chelsea v Barrow in the League Cup 3rd Round. Who'd have imagined such a thing in 1999, for example, or the mid 70s if you remember back that far.

David and Goliath. On we go, you Mighty Bluebirds.....

Absolutely brilliant. Really pleased with this
whatever happens its a good pay day for the club and dream away trip for the fans.
I never thought I'd see the day but this board has made it possible.
I hope loads of fans make the effort to travel and make a racket.

Looking at last season attendances at Chelsea.
The ground only holds just over 40,000.
Their lowest attendance was just over 37,000.
That included cup games against AFC Wimbledon, Preston, Blackburn and Leeds.

I reckon they'll give us a decent enough allocation then it's up to us whether we take that. Either way, I wouldn't be surprised if you could just turn up on the day and get a ticket but don't count on that.

Got to get to this one. Get on the coach and ticket deals (combined) from the club folks.

Not sure it will be as high as that unless there is some additional TV money involved
Some people really do need to think a bit more before they post things on here

All them clubs probably took more than we will to be fair but still; even at bare minimums got to be looking at a £250/300k pay day. Game changer

I wouldn't even want to hazard (not a Chelsea pun) a guess. Tesco Extras, corner shop Sainsbury's etc, are your friend for beer and food. Stock up early and don't pay the prices there, in and around the ground. It's an expensive area.

If 37,000 attend and pay the lowest category price of £27 then Barrow's 40% share would be about £400,000
Let's hope we get that.

28-30,000 tops I reckon. How much would that work out as ?
