    I've got a good chance of missing out despite going to 18 games this year.

    Due to not being a member or six game plan etc I've got to battle it out Saturday with all the season tickets holders who will be thinking it'd be a nice day out to take all the family this time so I'll try and get my extra two each.

    I'll be gutted if I can't go.

    Like I slept in pride park last time, I'll be online 6am Saturday clicking refresh every 5 seconds.

    What really will hurt will be seeing the 15k empty seats around the middle ring again.[/quote]

    you'll be fine. don't forget ST holders that order any extra tickets won't be able to sit together. so it might no

    I hope you all do get them. We had the similar problem in the semi finals,then they gave us more. Easily outnumbered Hull that day.
    Thing is when you go look at the middle band area which is hospitality and itll be bare.
    I live in Duffield now so im backing you boys to go up and I may be there too as umm my brother works for a company who has a table in the Bobby Moore thingy.
    My boss whos a season holder said today most were there trying to find out their customer numbers to be able to apply for tickets...its all shyte now. The clubs should sell the tickets,
    Anyway Hope you all get there,have a great day out and win as you deserve it

    I'd imagine it's the FA and their friends. some of that club Wembley too (corporate). you can still see 6 or 7 of those mid tier blocks grayed out. like ray said it was disgraceful last time, not so bad this time but they still keep plenty of tickets in their pockets.

    re: So will everyone get a ticket?

    Regarding the general sale on Saturday: it says "all supporters that qualify for period 1 sales can purchase extra two tickets during this period of sale".

    Does that mean those who qualify for period 1 but didn't take up that option can get extra tickets or those who actually bought during period 1 can then go and get more tickets on Saturday?

    I have membership but want to go with my brother who doesn't have a customer number.

    Does anyone know if I can book my ticket now then get him the extra ticket on Saturday or is it a case of we've both got to chance it on Saturday?

    I've read some online comments from s/t holders who sound like they've got tickets already then are planning on getting more tickets Saturday? But they wouldn't be sitting with those people in any case surely?

    Ah right cheers Dave. There'll be a few chancing it then I guess. Wouldn't be the same going alone though.

    I'll need some of your optimism about availability to get me through til Saturday though.

    Hope you and your Dad get sorted ok fella
