How's it looking now, Lenny? Reckon everybody has five booking references or will it go down to, erm, three?

Phoned at ten and still managed to get one! woo hoo!
Only the £120 ones left though.

Did you ask them to check if lenny's asleep outside?

I should have!
 hopefully they gave him a little tap when they were stepping over him this morning.

Any spares?

[placeforparks]

i wasn't able to get through on the phone at all.

constantly engaged, and that was with the 0800 number and the 0121 number.

bugger.

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.

Villa's additional FA Cup final allocation has now sold out.

We will have 25,000 fans cheering us on at Wembley as we look to get the better of Arsenal in the showpiece on Saturday May 30, kick-off 5.30pm.

Villa have beaten Blackpool, Bournemouth, Leicester, West Brom and Liverpool to reach this stage of the world's most prestigious cup competition.

The last time we emerged victorious was 1957 and Tim Sherwood is eager to lead his team to honours as the campaign draws to a close.

Thanks to all our fans for their co-operation during this very busy time for the ticket office.

Enjoy your day at Wembley.

We ask that you don't now call-up looking to purchase tickets for the FA Cup final.

We thank you for your co-operation in this matter.

My sons ticket (under 18 ) shows as "FULL PRICE 120.00" on the ticket. Exactly as mine. Does that mean it's 2 adult tickets ?

[PeterWithesShin]

IIRC concessions are at the discretion of the club, Wembley only supply us with full price tickets.

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.

[purpletrousers]

Yep do be careful out there. I've prompted my bro in law to ask the reliable club Wembley man what his price is if unsold, good luck to those hunting...

Call-up? Ring, surely......
