You all know I'm a Wednesday fan. But have been placed in an awkward situation.
I believe I was first to get a Wednesday ticket through see tickets for the play-off final on Saturday, through priority of being one of their clients. I was somehow able to purchase ten, but took 4 as I had no plans for ten, but thought I could use 4. I was chuffed at this point as I had no priority points, but had only been to away matches.
I knew that I was working in Lobdon that evening anyway, so was amazed that things worked so well. I never thought that there would be any possible problem with getting a couple of hours off & making it up. I had to be in the venue at 7pm to set up and was expecting 1000+ guests into the nightclub for this particular event. Obviously it has created a problem as its my event and it comes with licensing issues.
I am paid a significant amount for that night.
What do you choose football or money?

Go to Wembley obv.
In ten years time you won't remeber the money you earned, but you will remember the day at Wembley.

the event, quite clearly. has to take priority if its important, let alone for any financial considerations
and no wonder regular fans can't get tickets sometimes when idiots like see tickets can offer 10 out to a single person.

Definitely see the game. I was offered a significant amount for my FA cup final ticket 5 years ago but there was no chance I'd have sold it.
Best of luck to Wednesday, would love to see them back in the premier league.

I'm sure I recall you are an armchair supporter who doesn't attend games and that, even if you wanted to, you couldn't justify paying £30 for a home ticket. Assuming that iis the case, your big work event and the financial considerations sounds more improtant to me than a football match.

I don't attend the home games, but go to a few of the away games. Is that an armchair supporter?

There have been at least 4-5 games at Hillsborough this season where its been £20 to get in, yet you refused to go on principle because prices were too high. What price did you pay for Wembley tickets Aaron?

One up from an armchair supporter. Not that there is anything wrong in being an armchair supporter.

Arm chair supporters subsidise the match attending supporters enjoyment nowadays more than ever before.
Obviously go to the match. Surely you can find someone to fill in for your duties (whatever they are) or explain to the client the uniqueness of the situation. If you say it in the right manner to the right client he might send you on your way with a smile on his face as well.
