    Would have preferred it away to tick another ground off but home will do nicely.
    Blimey, the amount of times I’ve seen us play at Stamford Bridge must be close to double figures.

    You’re old. There’s a whole generation that’s never seen us at at prem ground. Not sure how old Martin is, mind 🤣

    Better make sure the fire fighters are drilled and ready behind the covered end. 
    I'm retired

    So with Chelsea allowed 15% of the capacity?that’s got to probably work out at having the JSS and the end block or two of the West Upper?

    Either that or they may be given some of the East Stand... There have been a few other FA Cup games against minor opposition where they got that section as well - Easier to do as well for a Cup game no doubt, as the club dont have to worry about Season Ticket Holders etc.

    Is it not 15% or one whole stand?

    Wow... We'll surely be on TV with that tie!!
    You reckon?!

    Don't forget: pretty much every Man United cup game has been broadcast on live TV in this country for the last 20-30 years ... with the exception of one match: the League Cup Quarter Final against ...



    ... the Charlton Athletic Football Club.

    If we couldn't be shown live against Man Utd I doubt we'll have much hope against Chelsea when there are plenty of other options for TNT and BBC.

    It'll be interesting what restrictions are brought in to prevent Chelsea buying in home areas etc

    We've not met since relegation in 2007

    I’ve done 72/92 current grounds of which 9 of the 20 outstanding grounds are in the Prem. Of the 9 outstanding in the Prem 6 of those have since moved to a new ground having been to the old so call it 78 if you like.

    Ticket prices of £42+ put me off in the Prem years and our last visit there was also in 2006? Would imagine a large section of our support has never seen us play there.
