Just bought my membership, have two home games this season so tommorrow for me! Was that stupid, looking like there should be a few tickets still left. Also I'm pretty sure the membership counts immediately but guess I'll find out tomorrow haha! So what do people think my chances are, I'm giving myself 35% chance of being there haha.
I genuinely think it may come down to where you are in the queue at 9am tomorrow. If I get on I'll just click 'best available' and see what happens!
You in the same boat then? Good luck (unless it's between me and you for the last ticket haha)! But yeh I think theres still a good few hundred left maybe around 750 just by eyeballing it? Gonna be sweating tomorrow 9am haha!
It may come down to the case where I am eligible....I will have to sit on my hands. Repeat....you do not want to travel to Wembley.
Advice, please. My mate is eligible tomorrow. Should he try logging on earlier than 9.00 or on the dot of? Thinking being, obviously, you are placed in a queue of up to an hour (perhaps). So, here's the nub, I suppose. If you log on at, say, 8.30 and it says a 45 minute wait would the criterion have been updated to membership +2 by the time you get through? Anyone know?
You sure about that, Fran? I can meet you somewhere first for lunch, a nice quiet drink than a peaceful tube journey and walk to the stadium. It'll be fun!!
I logged on at about 8:45 this morning but had the "holding" page which doesn't have the waiting time; at 9am I refreshed and the page changed to the 30 minutes waiting time, although it only took about 20 in the end. Saint didn't refresh (see his message above) but the page changed for him anyway - and only took 3 minutes to buy the ticket I don't think there's any advantage in logging on extra early as the page doesn't seem to "open" until 9 anyway.
I went on at around 8.50 today. When 9.00 came the screen changed to the waiting screen with a predicted time of 6 minutes. So I think I must have been high up in the queue. Do that, basically.
That's what I did when I purchased mine last week, seems to work best. If you refresh it resets your place in the queue I'd imagine.
The best way 100% is to get on to that Website Close Screen Early, (I was on at like 8:35 ish?) It is the order in which you get on to that page which forms the queue to get onto the site once it updates at like 9:01 or whatever. DO NOT REFRESH, if you do it puts you at the back again. As long as you are on a computer rather than a phone / ipad (cant speak for those) it will move you into the queue automatically. My queue time was 3 minutes. Bish bash bosh off to Wembley Good luck to you all attempting it tomorrow.
I now have a £450 shaped hole in my bank account. On the plus side, I have a Club Wembley ticket which makes the cost irrelevant......
Unless said sandwiches are served in a pint glass I shall not be partaking. The only question now is do I brave the Saints shirt? I got away with it at the JPT but hmmmm...
A dyed in the wool Liverpool mate of mine tells the story that at the 1974 Final he got the equivalent of one of these seats. He was pissed off when two blokes sat in front of him and one said to the other: "Lovely day for the Final. Who's playing?" Not sure whether the story is apocryphal, but hope you don't have that experience. I'd be ready to kill!
