Can anyone tell me which is the ‘Holker St End’ singing block and can you choose your seat or are you just given a ticket for the block you want to be in? Don’t fancy being low down in that lower tier! Thanks.

If you buy online it comes up with the option; there’s an adult seating option and an adult seating singing section option, and yes you just get given a ticket

At most away games Barrow fans have a seated number ticket but ignore that and please themselves where to sit/stand we are now entering a Premier League Stadium the rules are completely different, just make sure you pick the right area for your group don't want to end up in the wrong area.

Lower Tier.
For Cup games - where away fans number 6,000+ - they give both tiers to away fans.
We've received 3,000+ - so it will be the Lower Tier.

Why do tickets say shed upper on then? Must be a miss print

My ticket is definitely Shed Upper 2 (SU2). You can go to your exact seat and see the view you'll have on Chelsea's 3D plan:

Haven't collected my ticket yet. But as far as I'm aware it's the Lower Tier. I googled various web sites for the info regarding seating and pubs for away fans. All said Lower Tier. Don't blame me - if it's incorrect And to be honest; does it matter?

The only personal info I have is from when Plymouth Argyle visited Stamford Bridge. The Green Army took 6,000 and therefore were given both tiers.

We start at SU1 and work across and below depending on how many tickets we have sold they will alter the segregation demarcation line as far as I’m aware.

Thank you for the information Arvo.

No problem. Another possible route into central London that that just occurred to me and that would avoid the crush at Fulham Broadway is to get a bus (28 or 306 from bus stop H on Harwood Road) to West Kensington tube station and then pick up the District line from there. Since that's on the other branch of the line you shouldn't have any problem getting a seat. Drawbacks, however, are that those first buses after the match are likely to be pretty crammed themselves and it would add a little bit of time to the journey. How much depends on how long you have to wait for a bus, which is never really estimable although Citymapper is a good app that will tell you when the next one is due.

Barrow’s players have been offered a bigger bonus should they lose their Carabao Cup tie against Chelsea than if they win.

Telegraph Sport has seen details of League Two side’s bonus schedule, with the players set to receive £1,000 each if they lose the third-round tie on Sept 24, and just £250 for pulling off a shock victory at Stamford Bridge.

Club have said its a misprint which I think I believe, my biggest issue is how the paper have got hold of the incentives.

It's a nonsense article - they've already ring fenced some money (the £1,000) as a reward for getting this draw with the additional income it brings. It'll get paid out with all the standard bonuses when we exit the competition. We've obviously got a £250 standard bonus for every round we get through. It's the way it has been interpreted makes a nice click bait article as if we are paying less for winning than losing, where in reality the £1,000 is already in the bank and they'd get an additional £250 for winning.

Unless I am misreading it, the general tickets for Stamford Bridge have sold out (all of them, not just ours). I have looked on their website and ours and can only see hospitality tickets on the Chelsea site. If so, it will be a big gate, fantastic!
