    I rolled up at 5.30pm after finishing work, I expected a big queue but only approx 30 people in front of me. I got my ticket at 5.50pm and home by 6.10pm. All 6 ticket windows open and the queue was moving quickly. I thought I was going to have to queue for at least an hour or more but all worked out really well, I got my ticket in block 113.

    So the people that queued, did they do so for "better" seats then?

    Those that rolled up later on, how far back are you in your block?

    Me too! I hope you don't shout or anything like that. I'd like a nice quiet afternoon.

    Whilst I was there most people seemed to be buying the top priced seats. I had bought a mid priced ticket for the semi final but decided to get a better seat for the final. They had a block directly behind the goal on sale and those were selling very well apparently.

    The most expensive tickets had all gone - most people seemed to be asking for the £85.00 tickets when I was there. Not a great selection available but we went for seats towards the back of block 113 behind the goal but high enough up to give a good view of the whole pitch whilst still allowing decent access for the butler to serve our mid-match tiffin - row 39.

    I'm in 115 this time, so I can see Curtis lift the cup.

    Was anybody in there for the semi-final?

    Any good?

    I tried all day yesterday morning to buy a ticket for Fulham.....No one is answering the phone, so ****'EM, if they can't pick up the phone I can't be bothered to go.

    Yet another HULL CITY induced COCK-UP...

    No way am I going to the ticket office when its flooded with geezers buying up the cheap £45 Wembley tickets

    I queued for the better seats yes. When I got to the front of the queue, the girl at the ticket window asked me which block I wanted to sit and front or back of block. Usually they are a bit dopey in there but today it was very efficient service once inside, the ticket office. Well done all involved today.

    I think you're just under the overhang from club wembley. Row 44 is the back row.

    I am bit confused. According to official website block 112 was available for the west slanders today but there are reports on here of 113 and 115 being allocated. I'm sure they weren't on the list. Also how come people from E9 were able to buy tickets as per Fileys post!!!!!!

    Blocks available to West Stand Season Card holders:
    £85 - Blocks 107, 112, 115, 504
    £65 - Blocks 512, 518, 519
    £45 - Blocks 509, 514

    As reported by the website. Not sure how somebody has gotten into 113.

    I hope, as an East Stander, they haven't decided to open new blocks to the West Stand because of the existing ones filling up. That means there'll be less blocks available on Sunday when I go. If the £85 blocks were filled, they should have taken a seat in another block or wait until the South/East Stand blocks were open to purchase.

    I knew I'd seen 112 as part of the allocations and not 113. Hope they've just swapped a block and are not mixing it up otherwise there will be mixed allocations of fans like the semi and disagreements over standing/seating/singing/not.... Oh dear
