When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Quoted from BackHeelTony
Home end is now sold out


By this, do they mean that all the unreserved seating has been sold?  Or do they mean the 30,000+ ST holders have all bought their tickets too?

Speaking to an Arsenal fan many moons ago (maybe around 2007 or so) he had a ST and it covered ALL games - so if they got knocked out 1st round it was unlucky and expensive, if they went all the way through the cups then great, it was all paid up-front for anyway.  Do Chelsea maybe have a similar system?  I doubt it, this was the only time I'd heard of such a system, but it half explains why Arsenal's attendances are often stated as being 60,000 when there are clearly 10,000 empty seats - it just means there are 60,000 who have a ticket; whether they turn up or not is of no consequence to the men in suits,

Mind you, how on earth do you divvy-up the gate receipts from cup games if you have huge swathes of people of who don't actually pay for a ticket?

Anyway, I hope there really will be 40,000 there, but I have my doubts......

Have a look on the Chelsea website and the way they sell tickets looks reasonable and should answer your ST question, I think!

There are Chelsea home tickets for sale now on an unofficial Fans Site, if people get desperate.  There is an add-on cost to pay, depending on how posh a stand you want.

So which ST holder who can't make the game would like to help an exile out with your relevant stub so one can purchase two tickets??

Forever grateful Mariner Timsky

As an exile with no chance of getting any 'away' tickets, I bought my three in the East Stand over the weekend. We'll be on our best behaviour too!
ps - I've noticed that all official Chelsea home tickets have now gone, unless you can afford a VIP one.

That would be a shame, as I'm sure there plenty of diehards who just shy of privelages. At least if there were some the hard-core could camp out at the ticket office to snap up the remaining.
