I got there about 2.15 Friday and the queue was the length of the Bullens.
Re Tickets.
iirc, soon after this The F A made clubs stamp thier tickets to help tracing wayward ticket sellers.
I got a ticket on the Monday night from an ITK, for the 1970 Chelsea Leeds replay at Old Trafford stamped Burnley F.C.
I was talking in the pub sunday lunch time on general footy matters and Saturdays drawn game and remarked...don't you always get somebody who'll tell you
After the event - couldn't get a ticket? should've asked me, I can always get them, ended up giving it away etc, etc.
Well as it happens...piped up ITK.
OK then (unspoken/thinks smart arse) get me one for the replay.
I came home from work on Monday night and the arl lady said...indicating envelope on mantle piece...some fellah dropped this off for you just before.
It was a cracking game as well - dirty leeds getting their come-upance
I got my 84 ticket stamped 'Lancs F. A.' off him too.
