Ray. 217 Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 after Fulham, i've got a ticket for the Burnley game and am looking to get tickets to the Stoke and Spurs games. After these I really need to slow down and not go to as many games as it will get quite expensive. Can any of you guys recommend which matches I should go to or ones that I shouldn't miss out on? When do we start playing the FA Cup? At the moment I can only see games for the Barclays Premiership on the official website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 FA Cup will start in January for Chelsea, and Carling Cup in September, along with the CL matches. I'd recommend going to as many home cup/CL group matches as possible because the tickets are cut-price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray. 217 Posted August 23, 2009 Author Share Posted August 23, 2009 Cheers Alex, how are much are tickets normally for Carling Cup and the FA Cup? Why are tickets for the Premiership more expensive? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kez 2,727 Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Make sure you save some money for the games towards the end of the season it's when it gets more exciting, but if you want to go to big CL games and cup finals you will need to build up your loyalty points.

TylerCFC 7 Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 I'm so excited to be able to go to Chelsea matches again after the new year. I've been studying in America and will study till December. Anytime I get a free weekend though it's straight over to London for a match. It's so great to see a new Chelsea supporter that actually goes to the matches when they can instead of living close but still not going. Make sure you go to some CL games. In my opinion they are the best. Especially European aways if you can afford to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray. 217 Posted August 24, 2009 Author Share Posted August 24, 2009 Thanks all. I will try to bear all of this in mind when looking at going to future matches. As I have said before I'm trying to make the most out going to maches and living close to London. I don't have to worry about paying for travel as I already have season ticket because I work in London. If I were to think about getting a Season ticket next for next season, how does that work? I mean I know that you pay a lump sum like £800 or whatever for the ST. Does that gurantee you entry to every match, and i'm assuming that you don't have to pay for each match you go to?

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Quite correct, it guarantees you the same seat as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
middleoftheshed 388 Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Gives you entry to all 19 home PL games, you are guaranteed a seat for every home game but you have to buy it for the CC, FA cup and CL games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray. 217 Posted August 24, 2009 Author Share Posted August 24, 2009 (edited) Thanks guys, sounds as though it'll be worth it and will think about it. Got my ticket for Rottenham Dropspur , but couldn't get one for Stoke . Sorry Alex it means that our paths won't cross this time. I might try for Wigan, will that sell out as fast as Stoke do you think? Edited August 24, 2009 by Blueray Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NattyBlue 44 Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 The Stoke game shouldn't have been free travel, really pissed me off, Sunderland travellers should've got the free travel.The ST purchase can be done in different ways too, my friend has one and his dad (Shed Upper) and he pays it monthly for 6 months I think till it's paid off.last season you needed what? 85 or something loyalty points to get one I think.save up the loyalty points too, obv gets you into the FA cup games etc , I'll try to get lots of CL tickets because of the points, I wanted to get a ticket for spuds but haven't got enough money atm , next game might be pool I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray. 217 Posted August 26, 2009 Author Share Posted August 26, 2009 Are FA, CC, and CL tickets bookable through the club or are the via the organizations promoting/putting the match on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
