  1. When were memberships brought in? I recall getting one when Keegan came back, and possibly to ensure derby tickets in the mid 2000's after giving up my ST, but only seem to have become a big talking point since the takeover. Historically as they were not a thing ST holders would always get first dibs for finals etc, the question is does this need looking at now. I agree its wrong that someone could buy a half price membership now, put in a ballot application for brighton and be in the same pot as someone who has been to loads.
  2. Can't recall what it was exactly but I'm sure my cousin missed out one year due to posting the wrong voucher in. Fa Cup finals in the smaller old Wembley may have only meant us getting 25-28k tickets IIRC.
  3. I think you'd have a case if they didn't pay out on it mind, the two markets are technically unrelated.
  4. that shouldn't come under related contingency although I accept the point that you're making is correct.
  5. Wonder if there is a market for us to get to semi, probably be around evens before the draw you'd think.
  6. immense, cheers, was wondering if I had invented it last night!
  7. Maybe the route to ending the hoodoo is a sympathetic semi draw at Wembley giving us a chance to get off the mark there, as much as I'd rather it was at a Villa park/Hillsborough etc, then we may have the beleif in the final.
  8. From what I can see only the Manchester clubs have won a trophy this century from the teams remaining, huge chance with a helpful draw, neither of those even as good as last season.
  9. Looked all over and best I’ve done is found the forest one, ours was same design but black and grey with magpies instead of forest.
  10. We had an American football style one from Umbro in 1987, like hens teeth.
  11. That’s literally what the wording was, sorry if I didn’t make it clear, that was the awful part. Basically made us look like cuckolds.
  12. At lease we won’t have to see those half United/Newcastle ones, even seen them for sale in North Shields, possibly the worse thing I’ve ever seen in my life.
  13. I had it up for ages and hadn’t been much interest at what I had it up for, nor was I in a huge hurry to sell but got a lot on before Wembley even considered which I expect being a 5/700 quid weekend.
  14. Gave up on this beauty ever fitting me and cashed in ahead of Wembley today:
  15. I don't like the fact we play them away first where they will be strong favourites to win, so it could get into our players heads. In the unlikely event we get a positive result there the reverse could be true however. The irrational part of my brain tells me we have more agony before winning something, we are yet to be denied the agony of being in front in a final or at Wembley in my 5 visits, but i'm trying to stay calm about this one and enjoy the weekend regardless as we shouldn't have to wait too long to go back, which I also said after last time.
  16. that was a lucky find on depop, oddly it had celtic written in the shadow stripe. I would leave it plain tbh, rarer. My mate refused to put greenalls on any of my 80's shirts as he felt they shouldn't be touched.
  17. Which one in particular? Normally just find templates on eBay etc and have a mate who can print off logos
  18. I don't consider myself that superstitious but even my shirt choice for Wembley las time, to choice of pub last night was consumed by this. Could be a good thing not wearing black and white for a change, obviously the big thing would be getting spurs in the first place.
  19. We could end up playing in claret and blue if its Spurs . . .
  20. Also do this, looks like they’ve tripled overnight
