The Final

I may stand outside the stadium and sell my body.

Me too. Perhaps we can offer ourselves together!

Hotel booked! Bloody expensive this Wembley lark.

[purpletrousers]

Wow. Now I have to get in touch with anyone I can possibly think of who might know someone who can etc etc.
Good luck to all who deserve it getting tickets through the proper channels!!

So does anybody have a sense of what sort of criteria it night come down to? I'd never imagined I'd get one through the club...

It goes without saying the begging bowl is out, but what a lovely day out it was yesterday )

[PeterWithesShin]

Very much guessing, but when it's only 25K tickets I reckon 7 or 8 games this season. Will depend if they allow the last 3 games to count as well.

[DeKuip]

736 Clubs entered the FA Cup this season, all of which have been able to apply for tickets, so if you know anyone at your local non-league club give them a call. There's no harm in asking.
734 of them are out now anyway!!

[PeterWithesShin]

Or at least keep an eye out on your local club's site. Some of the non-league clubs will raffle stuff like ticket/s etc to help raise money to keep them going for another year.

[Villafirst]

It's apparently between 17K and 18K.

I thought it was 20,000 plus?

I'm hearing of club wembley being on black market at about £500 a seat

[Leicester_Villian]

Just a hint ...if anybody either referees or helps run a club you can normally apply via the County FA ...they normally have some tickets

[Risso]

edit: apologies, absolutely no offence intended.

Back in 2000 AXA was a client and asked them as they were sponsors, if they could get me a ticket. FOUR HUNDRED QUID!

Saying that, I have one possibility/contact to get a ticket(s) this time around and it will be through 'corporate' connections. I'm not banking on it as I'd imagine lots of investment bankers are now life long Arsenal supporters and tickets will be scarce.

[silhillvilla]

I was offered a seat in 2000 just in normal area for £200, I was based in the Middle East at the time , came back and just did a family BBQ (in the rain) in the end rather than go alone.

My contact at Man City may be getting an innocent email...

Good plan. Who could possibly resist?

[silhillvilla]

If I win  euro millions tonight I'll get you all a ticket .
