Just looking at flights for the final (not tempting fate or anything I hope). Is it the weekend of Saturday 24th March?

Yes mate its the Sunday 25th March with a 2pm KO, I have been checking train fares from here and found them to be very cheap, under £18 return, but I thought I wouldn't tempt fate either but couldn't stop myself.

Ah Sunday of course! I can get flights for a bawhair under 150 Euro, which is actually not too bad out of Luxembourg so I am tempted to just book them now before they shoot up in price (which has happened to me recently.

We would get an initial allocation of 30,000.

This is true, the same as Chestefield have already got, doesn't mean we would sell them all though but I think taking 25,000 to Wembley would be easily achievable for us.

To not totally tempt fate I would wait until after 10pm (GMT) tonight to book them Wink

My guess is that we'd only take 15k - can;t see it being much of a draw for some folk having been there a couple of years ago. Anyway, need to beat Barnet first. If we play to our ability - we're through. If we underestimate them then we're probably out. I'm going for a 2-1 win.

We'll take between 20k and 25k.  The day trippers will come out in force just for the day out.  The wont really give a fuck who we are playing.

Chesterfield have only asked for 20,000 of their full 30,000 allocation and wont flog all of that.

If we get to Wembley I reckon there will be about 45,000 there and if Barnet go it wont get over 25,000!

We will win 2-0 and there will be plenty of tickets for any who wants to go to Wembley.
They can impliment whatever ticket allocation scheme they like for that match  Wink

ST holder and people with a reasonable amount of stubs should be left free to buy as normal via the club chosen method of allocation probably ticketmaster.

The daytrippers should be made to earn there tickets ........................ Pick the coldest day between now and final day and make the fuckers queue for hours on end in the freezing cold ................ If they cant be fucked to come and support the club unless we get Wembley, so stuff them ..... The complete and utter bunch of cunts!

Perhaps they won't use Ticketmaster. With the playoff there was a very limited time span to get the tickets sorted, and more chance of a sell out. (this may be a false hope)

While I agree (because the day trippers made the whole Wembley event complete shite last time), that would also punish people like me. I've only been twice this season because I now live abroad, but have clocked up hundreds of games over my life.
