We still won’t know which game is A and which is B though will we?

Some people reckon 3rd v 6th is A and 4th v 5th is B. Not sure what that’s based on though.

Yeah but as mentioned policing could change that.
My original comment was re Elfsborg saying after tonight people could start to make travel arrangements. Unfortunately until the games are confirmed as A or B we can’t.

Having seen Mr Hater's previous post it looks like I am mistaken.

I reckon we'll end up playing Fleetwood.

Can not see the Met wanting Charlton V Pompey or Sunderland at 19:30 on a Saturday evening.

As others have posted though, Newcastle are in London on the Sunday, so can't see them wanting Sunderland in town too, albeit 3 hours earlier.

so the issues we may face is 

charlton vs sunderland - police will not want sunderland and newcastle travelling down and back up to the north on the same day as newcastle have fulham away on the sunday. 
charlton vs pompey - police will not want it on a saturday night at 7.30 having looked at the football fixtures for that day sky have already got the 2 championship play offs on at 12.15 & 17.15 and a league 1 play off pencilled in for 19.30.

if we are as expected get Sunderland i can see us being game A and having sunderland at home on saturday at 19.30 and away on the following thursday at 19.45. 

on a seperate note will the club open for fans to watch together for the away leg? last year we got in a lot later where as this year we've been gauranteed playoffs a while so you would think some plans would be in place, would be good for fans that cant get up to the away game to all drink and watch together.

Will be gutted if we are A and are on the Thursday up there. It’s one of those ‘got to be there if you can games’ imo but with kids at current age I can’t judtify two days leave to a football game

think a lot will be in this boat and the costs - and contrary to many it does not make you less of a fan just before the near guaranteed slating starts - what i do think is if we get to final those that went to the away leg should get 1st dibs on tickets.

Think of the self employed whose choice is 2 days off work or 1 day off and go in on the Friday after 1hrs sleep.

Ahead of the absolute General Sale I'd agree... Not above anyone else though

Valley Gold | Season Tickets | Non-Season Ticket Holder (Depending on Priority Scheme) should all be ahead still

Or in your case, the unemployed can go on whatever day.

Accept that nobody with an atom of care or consideration for the future of the club will be spending money at roly's toxic circus.  Get together to watch the game by all means, but not at the Valley before the loathsome parasite has gone for good.

The opening line was a bit harsh, but I do take your point.

Anyone else fancy hiring a plane to Newcastle?

So every person that has attended a game this season doesn’t have a consideration or care for the club? Or those who pay for valley gold?. 

Bit it of a broad statement tbh and basically has just cunted off the entire fan base 

lastly people will support the club how they see Fit, you square

wonder how many "boycotters" will come out of the woodwork for the final or even the playoff semis, i have got around not giving him as "much" money by buying under 18 tickets/ using freebies and not buying anything inside the ground and picking and choosing games as opposed to buying a season ticket.

@cabbie8 has already said on page 3 he is organising a plane.  Just waiting to see when they are.

I, for one, will be coming ‘out of the woodwork’ for the home leg. Whilst I hate the idea of giving Roland any money, the importance of giving the team that extra support on that day will override.

Coach from Victoria Station to Sunderland @ 8am on the Thursday gets in at 2.15pm. Cost £8.33 each. Check into Premier Inn for £30 for the night, some relaxation time then set off for the game. Easy walk from the hotel to the ground and back afterwards. Spend the next day 'exploring' the local area (to make the most of the trip) and then catching the coach back to Victoria Station on the Friday at 16:45 (also for £8.33 each) gets into Victoria @ 23:15. Train back to (my) home in Orpington, means I'll be in bed by 12am then the whole weekend ahead, hopefully celebrating an historic win and a great short break. Admittedly, it requires taking 2 days of annual leave and involves 2 long coach journeys but 2 x coaches + 1 x hotel for 2 people comes to a total of £64. Not bad if you're on a budget and getting some benefit with time up North.

Personal preference is Saturday home 7.30 and Thursday away

Atmosphere would be a lot better than 12.15 on a Sunday

Appreciate a few would want a Friday nighter away but we win or lose this game on the home leg

Agreed. Our incredible home form this season deserves a Saturday night game rather than Sunday lunchtime.

Just looked at Newcastle hotels for the Thursday night and you can stay in 4/5 star places for under £60

I wouldn’t fancy staying in Sunderland after whatever the result

Beat Sunderland and go back to Newcastle wearing a Charlton top=free booze all night.

I have it on good authority that our away leg on Friday 17th will take place in Tenerife.

Funny that, I was told the 1st leg was being played in Malmo.

Can we just check on your track record before you buy a ticket. Did we used to regularly win when you last supported the team ?. We seem to have got rid of the Jonah’s and don’t want anybody who is a jinx coming back.

Pompey losing, Sunderland winning. Sunderland now 3rd and Pompey 4th.

Play off semi against Pompey instead, anyone?
