The Final

[richard moore]

Nobody stepped over me, lol. I flattened the girl against the window when she unlocked the door, (at 8.07 btw, fair play).
I reckon every one there when the doors opened, would have got one.
Also need to say big up to the chap from Halesowen, who'll remain nameless, for answering my appeal on Thursday, to queue up on their behalf, in exchange for a 5+ ref, they weren't going to use. After a conversation, he sent me two refs, on trust, which did us both a massive favour, resulting in two tickets for us this morning.
Me and one son already had tickets, and the thought of leaving the other lad behind was killing me, but thanks to the kindness of another Villain, we're now all going to Wemberlee.

Great stuff Ken, glad you are all going, have a great day out and best wishes to your boys

Cheers Richard. Hope you and yours are all well.

If anyone knows of 2 tickets for sale, please let me know - any category!  Cheers

Desperately seeking one ticket please anyone.

Phew, my pair of tickets have some through. Courtesy of an owner in the premier league. God bless them.

This is the first time at trying social media to source a cup final ticket and i can't believe the number of scammers out there. None of them want to meet up to do the exchange even though i offer to travel to them, and some of them were using the same photo of a ticket as others.

Same for me on Craigslist and Gumtree.

It's strange how everyone selling is selling on behalf of someone else, like it's not my fault the price is so high. I ask if i can be put in touch with the ticket holder which of course is met with silence.

One just popped up on Craigs List. Obviously genuine, because he says you can pick them up from him, or if not he will post for pre 8.00am delivery tomorrow.

........he lives in Truro.

It's a crazy long shot....  I am in and around London and still looking for a ticket - PM me if anyone has any leads please, pretty please.

A sad sad tale all around. Feel for the fans and this man's family.

Still hurting

Well I got. My letter from West Midlands finest, telling me that they were satisfied that nobody else was involved and as he's deceased the case is closed.

[Villa in Denmark]

Got mine last week.

I'm not sure how no one else was involved stacks up against the bank account funds were transferred into, but there you go.  My own fault for being so desperate to believe I'd got a ticket.
