Has anyone ever purchased Spurs Hospitality tickets before?

I am a Yank and will be in London the weekend of the FA Cup 5th Round. I would love to be able to take my wife to Craven Cottage to see your 3 Americans (McBride, Boca, and Dempsey), but per the club's website, tickets will only be available for season ticket holders, members, and Cottage Card holders. It does appear, however, that tickets would be available through the hospitality scheme and I am considering purchasing tickets for the SW6 Bar of for the Maestro's Lounge.

Has anyone ever purchased tickets this way?
How was the experience?
Any recommendation between the SW6 Bar versus the Maestro's Lounge?

I obviously meant Fulham Hospitality tickets, but must've typed Spurs instead, since I was thinking that Fulham plays Spurs in the 5th Rd.

No clue on hospitality, but when I went I bought a membership and then tickets. It's pricey, especially with the exchange rate, but it can't cost any more than hospitality tickets I would imagine.

I bought the membership online and then bought tickets at the club shop once I got to London. It wasn't a London Derby, so you will probably want to get tickets online if you can.

I considered doing that, but Fulham has rules against buying a membership in order to get Cup tickets:

In the event of a cup-tie, members joining once the draw has taken place will not be eligible to obtain ticket priority for that fixture. Membership cannot be purchased once any category A+ or A game has gone on sale.

I can get them for you (I'm a seaz ticket holder) but I'm not sure how good they would be. The Hospitalities aren't bad, a friend did one once and liked it. Not cheap but a good experience. Lacks the atmosphere of the real Cottage, though.

ffcseptic, thanks for your help, but I actually rang the Hospitality line this morning and purchased tickets for Maestro's Lounge, which includes:


Unique views of the Cottage forecourt.
Seat in the Johnny Haynes Stand (Season Ticket Holders can stay in their usual seat if they wish).
Complimentary sandwiches and other food service available.
Cash bar.
Complimentary tea and coffee with tea cakes served at half time.
Fulham match day competition.
Plasma screen entertainment.
Betting facilities available.
Programme and teamsheet for every guest.


No clue what a unique view of the Cottage forecourt means. Is this lounge in the Cottage itself? If so, that would be quite cool.

It appears that I can hang out in the lounge during the match, but that I will also have a seat in the Johnny Haynes Stand (which is where I sat on my previous visit to Craven Cottage), so I don't think I'll be missing out on the atmosphere.

I know we spoke about this via email but you definitely picked a good hospitality package. I'm sure you will be pleased.

I'm in my usual seat in the Hammersmith end but if you need a prematch pub, just let me know.
