Wembley tickets

Good luck to all those involved today trying to purchase tickets. As a season ticket holder who secured mine yesterday I truly feel sorry for those loyal fans who are scrambling to get them today. I am sure that with the addition of the coach option we can get close to getting everyone a ticket. Reading elsewhere it appears there is capacity for 180 coaches from each side which roughly gives another 9000. If that many can be secured we can only hope an extra allocation can be agreed to satisfy demand. My worry is this debacle will put people off trying which will reduce capacity
 
I don't know if this has been thought of, but if the club are trying to source additional coaches, have they thought to contact bus companies in Essex to supply buses, as after all, it is a Sunday match day, so a normal limited bus service will be in operation meaning that they will have numerous buses idle in bus garages/depots that could be used, especially if the drivers were dangled a nice earner to work the day.
Not a bad idea, but blimey that would be uncomfortable all the way to Wembley.

Thank you BD. My concern is that I/we may be forced to book a coach when we don’t want a coach (being in C London on Sunday morning if EasyJet behaves!)

Yep, it already has. A friend's son's football team were hoping to come as a whole squad but that won't happen now. Kids grassroots football team and they can't secure tickets to see their local team play in their biggest game in a decade. Potential lifetime fans for the club too. It's utterly infuriating!
 
Apologies if this has been covered before but how many tickets can non seaso’s buy today? I need 3. (Poss 4) as I go with son and his friend
Thanks in advance
 
Understanding that this is not the Club's fault, I am aggrieved that Season Ticket Holders can purchase up to 4 tickets, meaning they have the ability to wipe out almost the entire the allocation. I am restricted to access Roots Hall every week because I live near Milton Keynes. I have attended 5 home games, 12 away games ( including the aborted episode at AFC Fylde). I fall within the tickets for general sale category and it appears I have zero chance, like many others, of getting to Wembley.
