I see Chelsea have allocated 6,000 very reasonably priced tickets for the 4th round, which sold out almost immediately. Assuming there'll be little interest in watch a team of minnows, maybe they should offer another 6,000.
I never liked Stamford Bridge in Chelsea's wilderness years, but they have tarted it up a touch since. I still have very vivid memories of the animals that used to live there. The same animals that made me decide to stop following England overseas.

Out of interest and no offence, how much of a game is this for Plymouth? Obviously you don't play the "Big Teams" on a regular basis, plus this is televised..... What money can the club expect? Surely it's big deposit in the coffers.....

Definitely a big payday for them and good luck to Plymouth and all the other “small” teams who get a golden egg every now and then - that has always been the benefit of the FA Cup, as well as the bragging rights when an upset is caused!!
Yes, a massive bonus to a small club like Plymouth (even though I hate cup competitions that Plymouth are never going to win). I was surprised that Chelsea are only charging £30/head, although it isn't much of an attraction to them. They could have still made a few extra quid from the Plymouth supporters. I'd expect them to pass a few thousand more tickets Plymouth's way yet - they won't want an empty stadium.
