Can't see us doing too many more now. If we get past 30,000 that'll be good IMHO, given the what we took for the 'bigger' finals the last two times.

I don't think we will sell out our allocation fully, I think around 32-33k, we will get close but no cigar and if Millwall dont sell 40k for a game thats less than 10 miles from their home, especially when they are supposed to have a huge following then that wouldnt be very good.

I'm going to blame people like Sippo if we don't sell our allocation.

I just wonder how many part time Millwall fans went last year as it was their first visit to the new stadium, however they wont bother going this year.

There is certainly less interest from them this time. 5 of my mates are Millwall, only one of who is going this time. And two people i work with are ST holders there, and are on holiday. Save them blubbing on telly anyways.

28k sold as of last night for us to sell is not to be sniffed at in all honesty though.

Both clubs will have just over 30K I reckon (maybe a few more from Millwall but not many). That, as you say JJ, is not to be sniffed at.

I can't imagine with this weather many people would be staying in to book onlined or ring them tbh. I can see us selling another 5k

If Oxford took 33,000 or whatever it was surely we should take quite a bit more than that? Especially considering their's was a poxy Non-League Play-Off Final and this is a League One Play-Off Final?

But their tickets were pub league prices  too.

I don't think so. There's a certain number of fans every club is always going to take to Wembley whether it be Conference play off final, League 1 or Championship. A lot of clubs, like ourselves tend to take about 30-odd thousand. Some will take considerably less (i.e Scunthorpe, York) some will take more. I don't think the actual division makes that much difference.

Fair point but we sold our allocation in the last two Play-Off Finals didn't we?

Pretty sure We'll sell our's There are plenty who can only be described as very casual who will wait until the mad scramble has finished to purchase tickets.

My parents haven't got theirs yet and they're planning on going. I'm sure there are plenty more out there thinking "there's no rush"

I think that will be a fair few peoples attitudes too.
