Just been on, summary for those that missed it:

Going to talk to the company (from Bristol) who we rented the heaters off on Saturday as they promised 12 working heaters and 4 turned up, wants his money back.

Fast Plant in Swindon were excellent with their service in trying to help with the above problem.

PDC wanted the game on and didn't want the fixture list to become too congested.

No problem with Tuesday game and have sold 8,500 tickets so far.

He's been to a JPT meeting at Wembley in which we have been told we get 30,000 tickets, tickets stubs from Tuesdays game will not be counted.

In conversation with the Council about extending our lease, he didn't explain the details.

Undersoil heating is not a consideration at the moment.

Official tweet (10 mins ago) said that we've sold 7200, including 400 from Barnet. We should hopefully get over 9000 for this.

And at £10 a ticket. That's a great incentive for everyone to be there.

I think we're lucky that we're a club with funding and can afford to put the prices down to a tenner.

Many clubs can't do this and so hike it up. Long term this is great as Wembley will bring in more ticket and TV revenue. A great move once again by the board and NW!!

How many do people think we would take to Wembley?  Based on the fact that for the play off final we didnt get 30,000?

Added to the fact some of the day trippers will decide they have been now nad not bother going back.  Would we take much over 20,000?

We took 32500 for the PO final. If we get there, I'd expect us to take 20-25k.

I know a LOT of people that want to come to this....most non footy fans who want a day trip at Wembley, although it will depend on the ticket prices!

Surely they would be cheaper than the carling cup final tickets....

Carling Cup Final Tickets are – Cat 1 £90, Cat 2 £72, Cat 3 £56 & Cat 4 £40 (half price concessions throughout)
Allocations: Cardiff (West End) – 31,372
Allocations: Liverpool (East End) – 31,735

To be honest I bought a middle range ticket for the PO final but could of moved to pretty much anywhere. Think this time I'll be buying the cheaper ones and look to move once inside. If we get there that is !

Tickets for Chesterfield are priced at £26, £36 and £46. Not too bad considering for the play off final they were a bit more than that.

From Chesterfield site:

Adults £26, £36, £46. Concessions U17 (but only if accompanied by an adult) and senior citizens 65+ £13, £18, £23.

We'll take around 20-25,000 to this.

Everyone agree on that we need to sort out a section where 'singing' fans want to sit/stand? That is IF we get there of course...
