Knowing Wembley and ow they've priced this i imagine we will have to of almost sold out before they become available. Wouldnt suprise me looking at the petite number of "cheap tickets" available.

Do these additional £36 tickets become available immediately after the £36 ones have sold out.... or after we have initially been blackmailed into buying the remaining £46 ones??

Already posted elsewhere but here you go....seating plan for last years final. We are in the east end of the ground and the ticket areas are the same but you need to add £2 to the stated prices to match this years.

http://www.football-...4~159215,00.pdf

£26 is the very front of the bottom tier with £36 making up the rest of the lower tier. Then the middle tier has the £46/£60 tickets which i think are the areas you are talking about along with stuff that isnt for sale according to the key (Football League tickets etc). The top tier will also be £26 but arent to be sold initially and will only be sold should we require more tickets.

You can check out the view from each block of seats in Wembley at :-
http://www.wembleyst...urSeat.aspx#vfs

For what its worth and whilst there isnt a terrible view from anywhere in Wembley theses days the £26 tickets at the very front are probably the one place i would want to avoid as it wont be great.


top tier all £26 apparently if this post is correct Jamie.

Maybe I'm gonna be ok then based on the general concensus of opinion on here that everyone wants the 26/36 tickets. I actually want the £46 tickets, and assumed everyone would want these as they were obviously the best ones?????



no 60 quid tickets are the best

I think a proper seating plan of where and how much the seats are is needed before we rush on down to buy,up to now the cat 1,2,3,4 could be on the moon......

As i've just posted elsewhere its going to be exactly the same as the layout you posted already a couple of times with the exception of having to add £2 to the stated prices for last year.

As already mentioned by a few on here this no limit is the big issue but it appears from the post above its not the club applying this policy but under instruction from the league.

Yes i understand its not the big issue, i think the issue (if there is one) is the amount of people being able to get tickets before our true supporters ie Season Ticket Holders who pay up front and are there week in week out not just turning out for a Wembley show piece.

jamie

have you emailed the club and made them aware that this is going to happen? I have but had no response yet. Maybe if we all bombard them to complain about the idiotic approach to not limiting tickets they might at least impose some sort of limit - oh wait a minute.. its chesterfield.....they dont give a dam about the fans so maybe not !


Here's what I shall be doing - Saturday I will leave a letter and blank cheque requesting any seats available at that time with a break down of children,Adults and Consessions WHERE EVER IN THE STADIA. Obviously the money issue relates to a lot of families/people and the club would be damned whichever way the tickets were issued. Lots os people will be dissadvantaged by what ever system is put in place.

Yes but initially these arent on sale for us. They are the ones that will go on sale should we need more on top of the initial 21,000.

Im after £36 ones, not interested in the £26 (behind goal lower rows), or the £26 upper tier (if they are ever released), want mere £36 ones but with only 8,000 available and approximately 3,500 season ticket holders in the queue before me and before them the corporate & sponsors, its likely they will go as the vast majority will want these £36 tickets.

Having sat in the top tier of Wembley more than once its a belting view from up there and wouldnt be overly disappointed if i ended up with them. However as you say i think the £36 will actually be the more popular choice.

I can see the uproar when someone turns up on their day to find the 1/3rd are sold and they have to organise to come back the following week.
Not having a go but whatever options someone puts up on here someone will be put out and moan about it. Current way will upset season ticket holders in stands down the list, change the order and it upsets other stands, all season ticket holders and folk will moan when they have to queue for hours, add a limit on tickets per person people will moan that they can only get five for their family of 6 and one person will be forced to sit on their own etc etc....

I do feel for the club with these things as they are in a no win situation!!



But at least they will had the chance in the first place! If they want the tickets that are in the smaller quantity's (number wise), then you get there early, if you miss out you only have yourself to blame. The way we are doing it at present folks will miss out and there is nothing they can do about it. So which is fairer?

Restricting tickets isn't perfect as you rightly say, but everyone gets treated fairly this way. The overall worry about not getting a ticket isn't an issue as there are obviously plenty of tickets (more if needed), but there is obviously an issue on how fair the system is; so anyone thats not bothered about the ticket bands with lower quantity in number won't be in a great hurry to queue and most would attend the second sales day or later in the day after the initial rush has died down for their ticket in their given sales day(stand); why queue early if you don't need to?
Let loyal STH that genuinely are going to struggle affording this for their family, come down early and queue fairly. Plenty for the rest of us, but hey ho, this isn't going to happen and who cares seem the attitude of many.

For what it's worth Jon, I do agree with you that there is no perfect system and the club would be blamed for what every they did, but their has to be a fairer way than this??

To be honest regarding my original post if I have to pay for the top priced tickets for the family I would, but the idea that hundreds if not a few thousand non season ticket holders are going to have the choice of cost and have their tickets before season ticket holders get chance then that is wrong.
East stand second class citizen.

Having read the earlier post from someone who has rung the club and had an explanation of the process i can understand why they are doing it how they are. Behind goal tickets on sale first so selling to folk who like to sit in that place at the b2net. What i would have done possibly is if they are going to split it do a day for kop folk to sit behind the goal and then just done East and West together for a couple of days and then carry on as planned.

If an East stand ST holder drops a letter and cheque off at the ticket office this Saturday, would their tickets be allocated on the first day or the third?

Having sat 2 rows from the back on the top tier and on the corner about 20 rows back I'd definatley like to be on the lower tier ideally down the side so i assume that means I need to get a £46 ticket going by the plan if all the club Wembley ones have gone.

Yep....according to the seating plan for last years final and i cant see this year being any different other than £2 more expensive everywhere!!

I'm considering these for me and my brother but we are looking at sitting with 4 others and possibly one of those bringing his lad so will go with what they want to do in terms of price. What i will be doing is looking to avoid the £26 ones right at the front however.

If he was then that would be something for folk to moan about. I would hope that if he does this then he will be allocated tickets on the day of East Stand sales and no sooner!!

I think corporate and sponsors will have their own specific area - could be wrong though.
