Yeah, on line is restricted so we've got tickets in 139.

I was in the upper tier against Man United and it felt a bit too Trinity Road for me. Most folk were sitting down. Chelsea I was 141 (I think), so I am happy to be in the lower tier in the corner.

Apologies if this has been answered before but do I have to wait until all of my mates qualify to get my ticket so we are all together, or can I buy mine and they allocate them when they issue them?

You have to wait until your mates qualify.

I'm going down with a Category 1 ST holder and they were champing at the bit this morning - have to wait for me until April 3rd    ;-)

Similar position for us. Six of us planing to go, all season ticket holders but with a variety of attendances at cup games.

Sorted by phone - on hold for just a couple of minutes after navigating the menus. Only a few blocks being released in tier 1 or tier 5. I went for block 138 so at least I know I'll be towards the back of tier 1 - £53 + £2 booking fee

Think my brother and myself will be able to get tickets on Friday at 9am. We're both season ticket holders who missed the Leicester Cup game.

That booking fee is a bit annoying, it costs about 20p to do a debit card transaction, costs a lot more to bank cash.

This could be the longest and most boring thread of all-time if everyone comes on to tell us all when they they qualify, and then where they're sitting.

But for anyone that really wants to know my business I'll have to wait until a few other family members (part-time supporters!) qualify. No sweat.
Do you think I should go down the ticket office today and warn them I'll be phoning next week?

I'm going to send them an email to tell them I'll be phoning, then going down to check they got the email.

I'm in row 11 so will be well placed to invade the pitch at the end [if I can wait that long].

Take a sleeping bag and wait outside until the right date. Set up a Twitter feed ( is that the right word, don't use it) to keep everyone updated.

You are right though, it really is not very interesting is it. It is like people who insist on telling you about their dreams.

I had a dream last night about not being able to phone for my tickets. I'll PM you with it.

Does anybody else feel like we're at Wembley yet; in an excited sense I mean?

I was happy we beat the Albion and enjoyed the game, but after I didn't feel any more or less happy that we'd won than I would with any other game. I thought I might feel a bit more excited by it all when I'd purchased tickets, but I still feel a bit meh, as if we were off to Swansea away or somewhere equally bland.

I'm wondering if its down to the sham of semi-finals being at Wembley rather than being numb to the joys of watching us.

I have to admit, I really do.

When I think about the awful away days and home performances we've witnessed this season I'm going to use Wembley as a real positive.

A day in the sun, with your mates, having a few pints before and seeing the sea of claret and blue and cheering the lads on to victory at the National Stadium. 

What's not to get excited about?
