Wembley tickets

[Suffering shrimper]

To be honest it don’t be bother me if there’s only 20,000 tickets allocated make sure the proper fans get tickets who gives a monkeys about the day trippers

 

[Strykr]

Im hoping this isnt true. An understatement to say id be a tad miffed if a day tripper got a ticket and after almost 40 years of support i didnt

 

[MikeLapper]

Can’t see the powers that be being willing to deny themselves of potentially 20,000 sold tickets. It’s not unlikely that there’s 50-55K coming to Wembley for this game across the two sides here.

At 30 quid a pop we are talking billions of lost revenue.

Billions?

Not if each season ticket holder can get something like 5 extra tickets as well!

The old bill won't care about the cash - they'll be focussed on how to keep fans apart and safety outside of the stadium. It's in everyone else's interest to have as many as possible.

Not to rain on anyone's parade but I don't see how this would be even remotely feasible or sensible. The Chiltern line to Wembley Stadium isn't even electrified so couldn't take c2c trains even if they could somehow get there from the other side of London. Wembley Central perhaps more doable, via some circuitous route, but not sure you could terminate there.

In any case, the better solution would be to just ramp up the Chiltern service from Marylebone (which we can still get to just fine), which of course they're doing substantially already, and no doubt pressure is being put on them to do more.

They'd be able to run over the overground lines from barking. And presumably be able to use the Wembley yards to turn around the trains to get them out the way.

 

[C'mon you Shrimpers]

I’ve got to get tickets for 2 regulars and 14 so called day trippers. I don’t want to hear this word again.

To be honest as a season ticket holder and selfishly I only really care about getting one myself, I'd like to think I'd be ok so whatever the allocation ends up it doesn't affect me too much

That's a fair shout, I forgot about the Wembley depot. You presumably wouldn't be able to squeeze many trains on the North London Line in between Overground services, but I guess even just a few would make a big difference.

That line can handle 8 trains an hour (4 passenger, 4 freight). Not going to happen short of cancelling the current services.

 

[kentblues]

It’s not a FA event.

They own the stadium so I thought when they announced ticket pricing wouldn’t be announced until they knew who was in the final they were at least a major decision maker. And I thought they get 50% of that gate money? Maybe it’s the NL who decides pricing but not sure why?

What is the split from the gate receipts/ who do you think decides pricing? I have no idea as it doesn’t seem to be published although for EFL clubs it’s 50% FA (stadium owner) and 25% each for the clubs? Nothing for the EFL?

It seems no-one knows the answer?

Even if they done 1 an hour between 8am and 11am

Everything be should be on the same page on this.

The clubs will want the support, and will financially gain from a bigger crowd (most costs are fixed so the extra revenue will mostly go the clubs as I understand it)
Wembley will gain from their overpriced beer and food ( they won’t gain much if anything from extra ticket sales)
The league will want this to show how ‘massive’ the National League is

All condescending descriptions.

There will be a ticket for every regular supporter. As many additional attendees should be welcomed. That first or rare attendance might just turn them into a regular supporter or season card holder to assist with our future. This year we almost went bust and continue to run at a loss.

And every person that goes spends some cash on a ticket. A proportion of each ticket helps cosu pay off some of Ron’s debt

My brother asked if I could grab him a ticket, he’s been to one game this season. Told the glory hunting tosser where to go!

On Meridian Tonight just now, they said the club has asked fans to be patient, as the club is still negotiating allocations with the National League. We shall see.....
