Why are you going to take on more tickets just for the hassle to sell them for face value?

Dont understand why so many are selling them so quick?
Basically we mucked up the Notts C game by non-coordinated over-ordering, thus the need to get rid. For Wembley we knew, as last year, we're going to get loads of requests so decided to try and get a job lot of 150 tickets then assign them to members' requests - that we everyone who wants a ticket gets one, and we expect not to have too much of an issue selling on any spares at face value.

Looking at the seats availability , bottom and middle tier basically sold out , top tier selling well .

Still don’t think 40k though , sticking with 32-35k which will still be excellent.
Hopefully I’m misjudging this and we sell the lot.

We sold 20,000 by the time they released general at 3pm

Clubs just Announced 22500 sold so far
2500 sold in 2 hours , people just getting home from work now so I’d imagine a big influx from now until 7pm or so

Now they know others are going, hopefully people don't want to be in the missed it category and could snowball further. Would be amazing if we could smash all records and even beat last year's 43k.

22,500 will be 25k by end of tonight I'm absolutely buzzing for this now - going to be a sea of sky blue again!

We’ve single handedly beat the attendance of last years final already :)

We need to amend the 'In our Coventry home' song.

'In our Wemberley home, in our Wemberley home.
We fill up the ground with an accent so rare,
If you want some spare seating we've got none to spare,
In our Wemberely home.'

Just got 4 tickets block 549 row 12. I had to wait in the que online. I had a look again and they are selling quickly. My guess is that we would have sold 27k by the end of today.

I got 2 in 548 just before the rush started. It'll be my first time at Wembley for Football. Missed '87 by a couple of years and didn't fancy it last season with our league situation. I can't begin to describe how excited I am by it, and I'm sure this is the biggest game in my years supporting them.

By contrast Exeter have sold just over 8k according to their forum. Will almost be like a home game if the trend continues.

I feel we need to open up 542 to 540

As the ones behind the goal will sell fast
