Got my Cup Final tickets yesterday

[GT03ROB]

....and couldn't believe what was written on them.

"The wearing of replica club shirts is strictly prohibited"



...and people wonder why there is no atmosphere & the real fans moan about the corporates.

We are not allowed to wear replica shirts in Chelsea hospitality either - but children can.

I don't have a problem with it as it separates us from the riff raff

Agree about lack of atmosphere - but the plus side is you don't get swearing or people standing up in front of you giving wker signs to the opposition fans for the duration of the whole game ( god that grates me ! )

Also - if you look at how much the corporates pay per year compared to an average season ticket you'll understand that, to a small degree, they help subsidise the standard season tickets.
