Brilliant prices for under 20/seniors only £13.50 I payed more v Derby, hopefully doesn't affect final gate receipts too much but than again anything we make from the game is a bonus could easily have lost in the 1st/2nd round.

Has anybody received the password for season ticket holders? Apparently they have been emailed out but I haven't received one.

Yes, got mine through. From Dave Pointer.

I received one after e-mailing the office using address below to say I hadn't received it automatically.

Did I imagine it but wasn’t one of the perks of lifetime trust membership prioritisation for tickets for big games like this? I might be wrong but thought it was.

I don’t think you have mate. I thought any trust members had a seperate window. Someone correct me if I’m wrong

In the past season ticket holders got first choice then trust members!

Why are the club running the supporters coaches and not the trust?

[Adam29]

Think they are just running their own - the trust will still be running buses

[Fazered]

OK thanks

[capman]

The club have well and truly shafted the trust with the bus they said they wanted to work with the trust to run the bus and they got sponsorship for their own buses, which don’t include the trust buses and [SwearFilter] us off what were you paying for? The buses? Is a lot more what the club would be paying? I’m there getting sponsorship which they didn’t think to split with the trust and then when you criticising, they blocked you from facebook. I didn’t know the club was a dictatorship now.

Talking to a supporter after the game and he said Chelsea have 28,000 season ticket holders who get the league cup included, so does that mean we only get a share of the gate money from above that figure, might not be the financial money spinner we had hoped for.

[Adam29]

Chelsea would have to put the money in from season ticket holders - they choose to allow cup games free so they would have to supplement it

[McMark]

Not sure about this. Although generally good reports about Travelzoo there are some bad ones about as well.

There’s an old saying “if it seems too good to be true ……….”

Used travel zoo plenty of times, never an issue.

Yep use travelzoo myself never been an issue.

[McMark]

If the club are undercutting the trust travel pricing for the visit to Chelsea that’s pretty poor by any standard and disappointing as it undermines the hard work the trust do week in week out in organising supporters travel.

[Methuselah]

Surely if the club are getting a subsidy for their.buses unless it extended to include the Bluebird Trust buses they won,t be able to afford to put them on at the same price.I have been on.loads of the Trust buses and they are always well organised .The people who go on these buses are die hard supporters who have followed this club through thick and thin and from what I am reading seem to have been left out of the planning for this match.If it is true somebody at the club needs to contact the Bluebird Trust and work with them.These are the people who helped keep this club going through difficult financial times.It needs sorting and fast.This club is a partnership between the supporters and the board and should never be forgotten.

40% of 28k (minimum attendance) is still more then 40% of 6k tops that we’d be getting at home
