Will accelerate tomorrow no doubt, the 30/35k option is the fav I think although it would not surprise me to see the 40k go.

My phone is being peppered by people asking for tickets, but ive maxed out on my 4 season tickets. A lot who didn't go last year too. That said, I think it's looking like around 30-35K judging by overall demand.

Last year we sold 20k in the first day so reckon a few day trippers will be giving it a miss, anything over 30k will be very good considering last year's final had only 23k overall!

Tbf though, was a longer build up for ticket sales. General sale and tomorrow be a good indicator.

An alternative view: Last year against Oxford was token cup, nice but forgotten, next week could shape the future of our club for many years.
Anybody of the Sky Blue persuasion should be attending the play off final. This is the real thing.

Agree, last year was against the backdrop of relegation & a consolation prize for the SBA . This year it’s a positive chance to improve our clubs prospects.

I would be surprised if we don't reach 40k. But one problem could be that it is half term and a lot of people booked for going away. But once the tickets go on general sale the sales will speed up.

Yeah I can't make it as we're driving up to Windermere for a few days on the Sat before, I can't face the journey to Wembley and back on the Monday, and then drive back to Cov on Wednesday. Even the train is 4.5 hours with 4 changes. I know you have an even longer trip, and good for you for putting the effort in.

What fiasco to get tickets can’t sell more than ten even though I have three linked season tickets rang ticketmaster 25 minutes of extra charges to be told only lower tier available.

Sorted in the end but ended up with a split ticket by one seat

Are you, or is anyone you know a member of the National Trust? If so you need the sticker in your window for free parking all over the place including the car park at the bottom of Windermere.

Good info thanks, I think my sister in law is a member, I'll find someone who is, or I guess Italia probably has a cheap car park up there.

From my experience this year, you'll need a membership card as well to slide into the car park machine. I used an NT car park in Sheringham this year & the rules said that a window sticker by itself, wasnt sufficient. You can still borrow somebodys card & they'll never know the difference.

Any season ticket holders been on since this morning to see if there have been many sold. I would be surprised if we have sold more than 3000 today

I'd say about 2500 today looking at it. There aren't many seats available though. You cant get more than 2 together outside of the family section unless you want club Wembley or Cat 2 seats. They'll be a big rush tomorrow and Tuesday.

You have to factor in that last year there was a decent amount of time before they went on sale for people to get hold of season ticket holders and persuade them to get extra tickets. For this fame they were on sale at 8am the day after a night game. Hopefully we'll see another big sales day tomorrow for general sale.

Everyone needs to get to this game, its far more important than the check a trade.

I think we will sell atleast as many as last year. Sold 12000ish by today most to season ticket holders not as many ST holders this time, interest is greater this time aswell
