Yeah seen all sorts bounded about 2,500 to 15 000. Isnt it 10 % or something ? You just know theyre going to stitch us up on H and S grounds, and Sky are going to be crawling all over this

5,700 that can't be right and they want to reduce that. The words piss up and brewery spring to mind.

We regret to inform our supporters we have been given an allocation of only 5182 seats.

The club requested the full allocation as determined by this competition’s regulations, which would have been approximately 5,700 tickets, but due to the set-up at West Ham’s new stadium, the EFL has given them dispensation to provide a lesser amount for this competition. We are disappointed by this. 

Cunts!

[FootballManics 16]

Wow, I had tweeted earlier about how I had promised to take my son to see you guys play. Yet we are presented the chance to actually play you in the cup, provided my team can actually get into the next round.

First Premier League team he has seen was Liverpool in the League Cup sometime ago, where Adam Coombes scored the only notable goal during his time with us.

My lad loved it and even though you'll stuff us, this is quite magical in terms of football because you have earned yourself a very loyal follower in my son (so much so he wants to join this place). I can't even get him to post on my fan site or FM. LOL

[We Hate Scouse 10,326]

Absolutely delighted. I'll be taking my son to his first game!!

[Unionjack 7,531]

Hope its POSH cause my Mrs is from there and got a load of mates up there. And only 45mins on train / straight up A1!

Not seen them since I went to Manure with them ages ago. Used to be good for their level. Always had good keepers.

[KevinAshburner 1,270]

Peterborough took a 2 - 0 Lead against Notts County inside the first 10 minutes so chelsea will be playing at home against Peterborough.

[KevinAshburner 1,270]

Chelsea will play at Home on Sunday 8 January 2017 at 3pm UK Time against Peterborough United in the FA Cup Third Round.

[Unionjack 7,531]

Ive spent alot of time in Peterborough (unfortunately). Used to goto a few games with them specially away matches and big home games. Took a few Blues up with me to see a few.. Leeds at POSH in the cup stands out and going to Manure in the cup straight after Djing all nite at a Northern do  completely off me head was fun. Lost them both lol

Theyve shown promise now n then thru the years, thought maybe a Championship team a couple of years but as consistent as Oscar is.

I talked to a guy from there today as I had originally thought we were at POSH with him telling me he would get me a ticket. So I shall have fun with him when they come up.

If anyone needs advice on parking or a beer giveus a shout. But I can imagine we shall be there in numbers so most of the town center pubs will either shut or low level bouncers everywhere. The local 'lads' will be going from far and wide. All the inbreds fron the Fens and the locals that stil think Burberry hats n scarves are the hight of fashion will be roaming about.

We got the Moyes End and some of the far stand I suppose, not seen my ticket but also got a ticket for the London Rd end too so that will be fun as the older ones know I'm Chelsea

Theres not alot to offer food/drinks wise at the ground. Cup of weak tea ,luke warm Bovril and a soggy pie maybe. But should be OK to get the vaporizer in ok lol

4 days after Spuds and week before going to Leicester I see us using the B team but we should still humiliate them.

It's at the Bridge UJ.
