Once their General Sale people realise there'll be loads of Sunderland in their section the sales will shudder to a halt. The type of Sunderland lads in the wrong section won't be shy bairns.
So, 37,000 sold out by us Potential for up to 28000 sold by them (no chance) Who is sitting in the other 25,000 seats?
But I’d hope they won’t be there to specifically cause bother although the initial allocations were beyond stupid given the difference in the two fan bases.
Long shot but my 2 daughters have been to matches with me all year finally got them interested - if anyone hears of 2 tickets please let me know - did try today but as we all know that was tough going
All wearing their colours under their coats, giving each other "knowing nods" as they "take" the home end?
As soon as they announced the ticket details I knew I wouldn’t have a chance of getting any as I knew I would have to wait until general sale. Obviously disappointing but I think the overall process has been carried out fairly. It’s only right that ST holders get first choice and it’s good that people who have been to at least some matches during the season get their chance as well. Only chance for me is if we are allocated any unsold tickets from WW.
The ideal final would have been Sunderland v Sheffield Wednesday. Full House and a true final if ever there was one for this leauge.
so he's basically offering a massive headache to the police by inviting Newcastle fans to go down. I can imagine a lot of neutrals going. Like day trippers. Making an absolute mockery of it all. The odd twat.
Feel for you mate. The way phase 2 worked was wrong for me. Allowing season card holders the option to purchase 2 extra tickets providing they had other peoples account numbers meant there will be a lot of folk like yourself disappointed. There will be folk there who have been to 1 game in the last 3 years and you miss out. I'm not saying they are any less of a fan by the way but if you've been to 18 games this season I feel you probably deserve a ticket for the final.
What's more likely to put off undecided neutrals, buying tickets than the prospect of Mags showing up The bloke is clueless.
It's not about saying anyone is less of a fan mate, but what's right is right, I've had people coming out the woodwork all week asking about tickets that, 1. Some I've not seen or spoken to in years 2. Same ones that called me a "mug" for continuing to go through the really really rough **** times when they could "Watch it in the pub". So in my opinion, some deserve to go to Wembley more than others. That's not me being a snob.
38,000 fans versus a 100 or so wet bags who spunked their pocket money on a ticket in the Wycombe End
