Well think how many friends he'll make on his 47 train journeys to Wembley. Probably saving 5 match tickets for the passengers that don't fart, read the paper over his shoulder and aren't drunk by 9am.

I guess they are the ones that people who are buying just to use up their allocation would purchase?

I do indeed.

My brother was going to go and then a friend from London too, but they both backed out.

Had a couple of posters on here interested, so bought one ticket for me, two for the one poster and the other three for the other poster.

Got to admire your cool about it Moff, well spoken. But can't help thinking your desire to get to this game is less than for many people. This feels like a once in a lifetime chance for a lot of the younger generation and families, who have only really ever known misery.
Click to expand...

Don't get me wrong Calista, I would love to go, but am tempering this by reality that it may not happen. Its my kids I would be disappointed for, but personally I did go in 87 and I totally agree with your sentiments about the younger generation. If our club is to succeed we need to keep these fans and give them something to be proud of and to enjoy, a Wembley final amid all the gloom will at least give those a day out they deserve for their loyalty.

I wont give up until all tickets are sold, and am trying to remain optimistic rather than pessimistic. Even if I am up in the seats by the roof beams I would be ecstatic to be there!

So if every ST holder gets an average of 5, that will mean there is around 2k on general sale?

Well I was too young to go in 87, and my Daughter hasn't even been to a City game, but as I'm too poor to buy a ST or match package (too poor to go to Wembley really but will make it work), I guess I'm not special enough. Not like a bunch of fans that support Man U or Chelsea but have a mate with a ST.

We were going to book category 3 or 4 seats for 5 of us.Only odd ones left now. We are currently waiting for last seats on block 551 to sell out so we can buy the front seats in 550. At this rate there won't be many seats left after season ticket holders get their's. There should be easily over 40000 City fans if neutral seats are snapped up.

Sign her up as a JSB for £25! She will get a free gift and you will get vouchers for CCFC stuff (discount tickets, other kids for £1 to a game). She will probably get a CCFC lunchbox and wrist band too and a letter off sky blue sam.

You also get priority

On this, does anyone know when/where neutral seats go on sale? And how many there are?

I logged back in to see what seats are left, the whole bottom and next up layer are sold out apart from the odd single seat in most blocks. Looks like they have opened up the top tear, and a block as gone, another is half gone, still the rest of the top tear not yet on sale.

So still only just over half.

Still about 19,000 tickets to sell.

Think everyone will be fine pretty much and even if we were to sell out the 40,000, we might easily be allocated another 2,000-3,000.

Some blocks are reserved as family areas - so depending on age having a child may be a benefit

People are buying 5-6 at a time so the pennies could be tight ,

Surely you wouldn't be able to? Just get their Ticketmaster login and do it that way.

I was advised by the club yesterday you could do it, but couldn't seem to get it to work, mate is a ST holder who is abroad at the minute but gave me permission to book them through his supporter number, added him to my network but still no luck. Let me know if you get it to work.

No, you would have to login as him then just use your card details.

His number of his ST and then his password.

If you give ticket holder name and address the ticket office can look up the holder's record and customer number
