I don't think there will be the time between Monday's final whistle and the final to administer the ticket sales from SN1 without there being an almighty free for all.

There's a 12 day gap between both... |

We wouldn't sell out so they might as well do pay on the gate  |

I will be there if we reach the final. Any "normal" fan would irrespective of "New" Wembley being soulless and the thought of losing etc. Affording the day though is a different matter and can understand the excessive cost putting some off.
Thank you for confirming what I had suspected for some time Duke i.e. I am completely abnormal  I'm with Christy....its what makes us 'real' fans....
This is interesting - on the one hand people (not just Flash) make the above comment and that's fair enough. On the other hand though, people rip the 'happy clappers/plastics' because they only go when we're playing at Wembley. So it seems to me that going to Wembley is hardly the bench mark for what makes a 'real' fan. Not having a go our 'owt, just an observation really. |

They are two different things though:
1. Fans who go week in and week out but don't want to go to Wembley (through reasons other than cost/not in country).
2. 'Fans' that only go to Wembley but can't be arsed with the bread and better matches.
I don't have a problem with 2, the more the merrier. Can't get my head around 1, but each to their own.

I am definitely number two. On the other hand I have been to loads of matches over the last 24 years, I just haven't been for the last 2.

Well I'm definitely coming over if we get there. Also likely to be an STFC debut for one, or possibly two, small boys (and I'm not talking about the team selection).  . |

Of course I'd go again, and I know I'd enjoy it right up to kick-off! My mate said he wouldn't go again but I know he'll be there if we make it.

This. Why would you follow the club through every up and down over the season and choose to miss out on what could be an unforgettable memory? The last two Wembley visits were painful and if I'm completely honest I'd rather we lose in the semi finals than go through the distress of another expensive Wembley defeat. If we do beat Brentford though I'll be there hoping that it ends the same way as my first two visits to Wembley did in 1990 and 1993! |

We previously went something like 17 years without a 'showcase' final, if that happens again then I'll be 46 next time we go.
If we manage to get past Brentford, I shall be in attendance.

I can't not go. The thought of not being there should we win is unfathomable.
