FA Cup Semi Final V Chelsea Official Thread

lydiabehan

Hi guys, does anyone know what the ticket situation will be for the semi final? I'm back in Ireland for a week, landing the morning of the 22nd so would love to get over to the match with my dad (hoping it's on the 23rd - otherwise it's off to London after an 8hr flight and no sleep!). I don't have my Spurs membership any more since I'm living abroad so can't go through them...is StubHub my only option? Thanks!

Season tickets will all get a ticket and after that members will be next. Probably go to loyalty points like it did back in 2012. I'd say Stubhub will be your only option unless someone with season ticket applies for you.

Maybe not that high, think the allocation is around the 32k. We have 20k season tickets which leaves another 12k tickets, obviously the club take a lot of these for staff and players and the like. My guess would be around the 175 - 180 mark but this would be total speculation.

It was definetly 130 for 2010 semi final v Portsmouth and AFAIK round 160 for 2012 semi final v Chelsea. Think it will be in region of 190 to 200 this time but that's just speculation.

Just checked on the official site and there are currently 4372 members on 200+ loyalty points. All depending on how many tickets go to members, I would expect it to fall below 200 surely, but how far below is hard to tell because they dont give a breakdown of the 4,700 members between 150 and 200.

After trawling through some old info I found out that Chelsea game in 2012 was only 137 points!!

That's good news. Also I think that the fact that the home games v goons and manu are coming up quickly after the semi final might help reduce numbers applying especially if the game is a late ko on the Sunday.

BBC showing the game down for Saturday 22nd with 5.15 pm ko http://www.bbc.com/sport/football/teams/tottenham-hotspur/fixtures

However they also have goons v city down for the same date and time http://www.bbc.com/sport/football/teams/arsenal/fixtures Maybe that one's the minor game?

Hatch99

Can't wait.
Any idea when the date will be confirmed?

If you are a One Hotspur Gold or Silver season ticket holder (i.e. a home season ticket holder) you will be able to purchase one ticket per season ticket.
Tickets for One Hotspur Gold or Silver members (i.e. home season ticket holders) will be sold on a first come first served basis and will be available to purchase either online or over the phone. You will be able to choose your seat from Tottenham Hotspur's allocated areas of Wembley Stadium, subject to availability.
Please note that due to the size of our ticket allocation, we will be able to accommodate purchase requests from all One Hotspur Season Ticket Holders. We do expect lengthy wait times during the early stages of this sales period so supporters who do not have a particular preference about where they would like to sit within our ticket allocation are strongly advised not to attempt their purchase until a later stage in the sales period.
Tickets will go on sale to One Hotspur Gold and Silver members (i.e. home season ticket holders) from 10.30am on Tuesday, March 21, until 5pm on Wednesday, March 22.
Please note you will need your Client Reference Number when making your booking as well as the Client Reference Number for any other One Hotspur Gold or Silver members that you wish to book with. This number can be found on your One Hotspur stadium access card.
Season ticket holders will be able to apply in groups of up to 20, providing that the person making the purchase is in possession of all details for each season ticket holder.

Demand from One Hotspur Bronze / Lilywhite members (i.e. Club Members) will outweigh supply, therefore tickets will be allocated according to loyalty points. Applications can be submitted online in the usual way that away match tickets are applied for. Strictly one ticket per membership can be applied for. As we are unable to predict how many tickets will be available at each price to members, tickets will be allocated in best available order to successful applicants.
Please note you will need your Client Reference Number when making your application as well as the Client Reference Number for any other One Hotspur Bronze or Lilywhite members that you wish to sit near or with. This number can be found on your One Hotspur Membership card.
Should you elect to apply for a ticket as a group, each person's total number of loyalty points will be considered separately. For example if five supporters apply as a group to sit together and the minimum number of loyalty points required was 100 and one person has 90, that person would be unsuccessful.
We would like to remind all Bronze / Lilywhite members that at this stage, they are submitting an application for the match. You are able to submit an application at any time during the application period so please consider this if channels are busy in the early stages of the application period. Your chances of being successful in the allocation process for tickets will not be affected by when you submit your application during the application period.
Postal applications from One Hotspur Bronze and Lilywhite members WILL NOT be accepted for this match.
The result of the members’ allocation process will be announced by 5pm on Wednesday, March 29, with emails being sent to successful members within 24 hours of the ballot being completed.

Finally, all tickets are offered for sale as described above, subject to availability.

Don't think Vorm is that bad but at this stage it has to be the strongest team in every game.

The news is in, cut off at 148 points

Further allocation of tickets. Anyone who appliedvand had 123 points will now be offered a ticket.

Who do you leave out for Wanyama, Son??

Not on sons latest form. Wanyama was a little rusty the last day, gave away a few balls although the game was won at that stage. Not sure I'd start him on that display

DubPerryman

Hatch99 wrote: »

It looks like it. I think Dier will revert to a back three and Wanyama will start in the centre. Son will be good to bring on to change things up, if needed.

Given it's Wembley's big pitch and the way Chelsea line up, I think we need to go three at the back.

Dier-Toby-Jan

Walker-Wanyama-Dembele-Davies

Son-Alli-Eriksen

Kane


Alternatively, if we want to nullify their midfield play a 4-5-1 and completely overload the midfield with Dier, Wanyama and Dembele to boss Kante and Matic. That would give us the option to have Wanayama doing a man marking job on Hazard just like Herrera did at the weekend.

Either way, it is most likely Son who will miss. He will most likely make the biggest impact off the bench, compared to Alli or Eriksen.

Would be great if we could play a 3-4-3-1 formation like above, but risky to go without a goalie? :rolleyes:

Can't see Poch trying your 4-5-1 either, would be nuts to try a brand new system in such a big game.

3-4-3 with Sonny on the bench is most likely.

Ha - whoops.

I meant 3-4-3 (or 3-4-2-1) however you look at it. Though just take Son out of my line-up above.

Four out of the last 5 times Chelsea lost has been vs 2 ST's. (MNF did a good analysis of it)

Maybe 5-3-2

or because Rose is out, a more standard 4-4-2.

We did dabble with the 5-3-2 earlier on in the season, and we have made the tactical switch to 4-4-2 a few times mid game.

Just like Rodgers at Celtic earlier on in this season (Vs man city) I think we have Mourinho to thank for showing us how to handle Chelsea.

Just saw you mentioned about having a season ticket holder applying for you, do you know what the situation is collecting tickets when a season ticket holder has bought them? (Photo ID needed at Wembley?)
