You going?

Can anyone who has recieved a successful email please confirm if a payment has come out and if it has, was it debit or credit card? My only hope is that a late payment is taken from a credit card (took 24 hours last time).

Told myself I could handle any rejection. Now I want to hit something.

Don't give a fuck who's reffing the game, I'm in a huff now. I'd steal the match ball if I could.

Same boat. Fair my arse.

If you ring the box office will they tell you if you were successful? It's an old email address so I won't find out through that but I'm still clutching at straws.

What worst is that I could go but if its a decision between me disappointing my son so that I get to go to Wembley, I'm not doing it. Its his 10th birthday and I'd rather see his little face as we get the train to London, than leaving him at home.

Disgrace if I'm being honest but have no ill feeling towards anyone getting a ticket. Just hope the suffer a horrible death.

My mates p4 and got two.

P4. I've got my ticket (p3) but needed one for my lad. Means I can't go to the match but will still go to London.

Yep. Now I get to watch people in p5 onwards gloat, while I feel like shit.

Mates got his. I've heard nowt, so presuming I'm not getting one.

Emails are going out.

Me fucked then.

It's not my email but will bank take out money straight away? That's my way of checking.

I'm with Wallsend mag on this one. Whenever I hear people moan about the DJ or how blaydon races is sung or home atmosphere or flags that are cringey, I just wonder if some just like moaning. Some of those flags aren't to my taste either but live and let live, they are harmless enough. Once you've been to Wigan or Burnley away, you will be thankful of the club and fans we have... even if they are crackers.

I don't see it as tired, more that their run of form has ran its course. Sometimes an 11 needs fresh ideas. It's been apparent for a few weeks we just needed an injection of sorts. Sadly, it's now been enforced through injury and suspension.

Full strength. Imagine what beating these lot a week before the final would do for morale.

Yeah even though Man United weren't great it was clear that Ten Haag has an eye on Thursday. Our biggest advantage is your fixture pile up and the risk of injury or fatigue. I suspect Ten Haag will rest a couple in the second left vs Barcelona if he can but then he's prioritised the cups when talking, so who knows.

No.

Think Eddie said he will be OK.

The world is our oyster with regards to transfers. We can afford most players. We can attract most players. We can pay most players. Our scouting seems to be elite. Its not a case of pick and choose but its not a millions miles off. The only thing we won't do is get into a bidding war with Chelsea etc. If they go for the same target as us, then we will pivot and go elsewhere. I'd be putting Neves and Maddison top of the list. Just getting one would transform us, two would be insane. Keep our moves quiet, if Man United come in for Maddison, then switch to Neves and vice versa. They are different players but with Bruno being so versatile, either would great. This summer will be great.

He's a bairn man. Spurs fans had Harry Kane written off too. Thank fuck Ashworth and Howe are making these decisions and not reactive fans.

Yeah that's complete bollocks. Howe didn't want to change a winning side and when Bruno did come in, it was in a number 8 with Shelvey. I'd be surprised if Shelvey is seen in the PL from next season. Forest will find out that he's well off the pace.

You are absolutely correct. What was our squad like circa December 2021? Should have kept Isaac Hayden and Jeff Hendrick around for squad depth IMO.
