Think thats the way I am going to have to go, leave it till the day and book the Claymore as a back up.
One other avenue, what were they like for letting in people who obviously had, had to much to drink in the semi, were they refusing them entry or allowing them in, might be another opportunity there.

If they'd turned away every blind drunk Villa fan turning up for the Semi, there'd have been about 10,000 empty spaces in our end

Ahem, cough, indeed. Going to be worse at the final as it's a later kick off. Diet coke before Midday I think.
yeah and me
then ten cans of white cider

So if you insist on hand to hand transaction then there's no issue? Is it a realistic ticket?

I think if someone had a picture of a ticket, they could probably print a few fakes. I think it would be ten times worse to get a fake and not be allowed entry to the ground.

I assume the hologram is the thing to check for fakes.

Going back to a question asked earlier, in the same boat live out of the UK now and coming back for the final, willing to pay a lump but what sites that are selling are any good, has anyone had any dealings with them, if so which ones, do not really want Club seats as they are neutral and that I will not be, so do not want to pay a lump and then get chucked out.

Bloke I know who is a Club Wembley member reckons being in an expensive "neutral zone" means you wouldn't get chucked out because that would negate the club Wembley perk of reselling your ticket for big games. You just have to swallow the bitter pill that you may be surrounded by opposing fans.

I managed to get two tickets in the prawn sandwich section by the subs bench at Wembley ( the seats opposite the cameras which are empty for the first ten minutes of each half). I gave them to two mates ( they are pro Villa neutrals if that makes sense, and they come to all London games with Chico and me) who jumped up when we scored and they were immediately approached by 3 stewards who told them if they jumped up again they would be thrown out. Different story there apparently.

Me and our kid were in exactly the same block, surrounded by Italian/Dutch/Spanish etc Liverpool 'fans'. We went apeshit when we scored and at FT, with no issues whatsoever.

Our mates said they too were surrounded by Liverpool fans from around the world. The scousers were fine with our mates but were narky with their own overseas day tripper fans , who they felt were too passive.

Tuesday's going to be a big day for sales then, including myself. To get Semi tickets I went down to Villa for 7am, might got down a few hours earlier to make sure I get some.

Anyone else trying this? Or will trying online make more sense than going down at 5 in the morning?

If it were me I'd be down there in person and would aim for about 430am
