I've got no chance of a ticket and frankly I don't deserve one having not actually paid to see Villa for about three seasons!
But I think I'll head to that there London anyway so I might see a couple of you for drinkies somewhere beforehand.

My hopes are pinned on an employee of the club who works as a scout - he's on his honeymoon during the final so he's said he'll see if he can help me out with whatever he is allocated by the club.

No guarantees on that though so I'll be looking to beg and borrow references once again.

Everyone on twitter is saying that we only have 22 and a half thousand for the final. Doesn't seem to be anything official and hopefully just a rumour.

Back around at the turn of the millennium I briefly dated a girl who work for the FA at Lancaster Gate, I woke up this morning next and my first thought was 'Perhaps I was a bit hasty in finishing it and should have hung on for such an occasion.'

Last year each club had approx 25k tickets. However, I suspect that would include any freebies/corporate that the club kept back.

Do we know how many out of the 25k last years finalists made available to non-corporates?
