I knew irt was a sad day when my beloved Portsmouth handed over tickets sales to games to the shamble named in the title.

But today was the biggest farce of them all, people buying tickets on the phones, able to but more tickets than they should, people who shouldnt have been able to buy tickets getting them, and people being told they had bought tickets only to find later in the day that in fact they havent because of administrative cock ups, Its not just happened to Pompey fans either Cardiff fans have had the same fate.

And this is just for the semis, can you imagine the scramble thats going tobe on for the final with only 15,000 tickets for each team.

Luckily i am already organised for the final should we get there, but knowing my lot, i have just missed out on the chance of getting to see my team appear at Wembley for the first time in my lifetime.



MESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Blame your club MOB. They're the ones that handed them over to ticketmaster in the 1st place.

Same old story, fans suffer whilst touts and corporate companies blossom!

I've always been lucky at Tottenham in that when I've needed a ticket for a semi-final, final I've always got one but I would not like to think I wanted to go but couldn't go because of a 3rd party

Oh yeah, the club are just as much to blame,

there is something going round where the fans want reimbursment for all the wasted time making calls to premium numbers.

Estimated to be £120,00o in all
