I was just purchasing my Bournemouth ticket and tried to sneak in a semi!

The system wouldn’t let me, damn those clever interweb programmers, our @pap could learn a thing or two from them :lou_is_a_flirt:

Naaa…a cup of rosy-lee and 2 ginga bikkies…we’re pensioners.

Well the worst bit was trying to link his account to mine in the “Friends & Family” section…going around in circles until we realised the account wouldn’t update until you logged out…losing all your selected tickets and transport…before logging back in. Refreshing your details wouldn’t do it.

All done though. :lou_lol:

I know it is absolutely useless to you lot BUT

IF you are struggling, Emirates Skywards (Airmiles) members can apply for a Ticket for Wembley in Saints End for 17,500 miles (thata is about 3 full fare return trips London - Dubai

Is it Skywards miles or Tier miles?

If it’s Skywards, then 17,500 isn’t actually a lot! If it’s Tier miles then it’s a hell of a lot.

It’s looking bad for Ray Wilkins, suffered a heart attack. I met him a couple of times through work and he was a lovely guy.

I always liked him. I remember when he and Vinny Jones got sent off together when Chelsea were playing Wimbledon very early in the first half. A serious punch up. Little Butch Wilkins gave as good as he got too, despite Vinny being about a foot taller. After the game Butch was being interviewed by, i think, John Motson for Match of The Day. Motson led into the interview saying something like," Well Ray, that must be a disappointing day for you" Butch replied, deadpan and oh so polite, “Yes John, a bad day at the office today, unfortunately me and Mr Jones had a difference of opinion and the Referee saw fit to dismiss us both from the field of play” I have never forgotten it, it may be on Youtube. An absolute classic.

I wish him well, as a footballer he was a class act, in the MLT mould, and treated in the same suspicious way by the philistines that run English football. Really hope he pulls through this.

Fucking Chelsea. They welshed on the deal where they let us have the 3pts and we let them have the semi final. Now the greedy tossers will take this from us as well. Wondering if the planes trains and automobiles work up is going to be worth effort.
