    Nothing concrete, but have heard from a good source (he's heard from TO manager) that tickets will go on sale to ST holders next Monday morning, any left will go to members.

    For reference, we got 31k for the Carling Cup Final in 2008 and all members with 126pts who applied got a ticket. Expect at least this time around, and last season Everton only got just under 32k tickets for their semi with United. Villa have been given the same for this season's tie with Chelsea.

    I assume you mean they will go on general sale after ST's and all other members ? They will hardly go on general sale after just the ST's !

    It's possible members will hold out and save points in the hope of us getting to the final

    You don't use up points by applying for tickets mate, they are retained for 8 years either way.

    The final allocation won't even cover ST holders, so if you want a trip to Wembley I'd be applying for the semi if I were you.

    just seen this on the spurs site.... Allocation: 31,800 - Tottenham Hotspur's supporters will once again be in the West end of Wembley Stadium.

    same here, wouldn't pay a yoyo over face value for any ticket but each to their own.

    Makes me angry that the allocation is only 31,800 tickets per club. Where does the other 26,400 go?

    I'm even more angry that I only got back from Gran Canaria on Sunday to find they already go on sale and sold out. Gutted.:mad:

    I booked a flight to Stansted Sunday morning for 25 quid.. Gonna stay the night in a friends on sunday. The resonable flights were all from gatwick on Monday but late so opted for the rail and sail deal from euston station to holyhead for 30 quid(that includes the train and ferry) departs London 9.10 ports Dublin 17.15

    defo a great price. Club Wembley tickets only start at about £200 per game. They have to be sold in conjunction with travel or hotel so if you only wanted to have a day trip might be worth calling Abbey and seeing if they can do flight + ticket instead of hotel + ticket.

    Club wembley seats are all decent too.


  • Registered Users Posts: 830 ✭✭✭Mullo76


    Another option - I have used this crowd before and they are good.

    https://www.sportsworld.co.uk/events/fa-cup-semi-finals

    Their goalline package - seats behind goal are £210 for twin occupancy so that it approx 240 eur even cheaper again.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,237 ✭✭✭Robxxx7


    still hopeful of getting a ticket myself, have a couple of options so its a game of wait and see


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,237 ✭✭✭Robxxx7


    Managed to get a club wembley ticket through work, so happy to report i'll be there :)
