    I know im tempting fate... but i do believe it will be brighton away. Moved down to brighton about 8 years ago, and would love to get a ticket, in the away end. Havent been to an away game for a couple of seasons, whats the chances of getting a pair of tickets? Will they go to general sale?

    Really hope its brighton.. Cracking new ground!

    I also live near Brighton, but they won't go on general sale, my only hope is to get into the home end.

    Tickets don't go to general sale anymore. You have to be a member, Mike Ashley made that the rule at the start of the season. You'll have to pay £20 or something to become a member and then you'll probably get one.

    Season Ticket holders obviously get priority but with a 3000 allocation likely, a long trip, it'll go to members sale.

    I'll be there!

    Does anyone know, or is able to make an educated guess, if were we to get to Wembley, whether tickets would be sorted by priority in terms of loyalty points, or how many games you've attended in the cup run? I know we have a loyalty points system so it would make sense to use that. However, at Birmingham away last season (just before the Carling Cup final) they were selling tickets for the final, and the more games Birmingham fans had been to in the cup run, the earlier they were able to purchase their tickets.

    Bit early to be talking of that I know!

    I think it'll be the same system as usual.

    Okay <ok>

    We would have a huge allocation at Wembley anyway so most should be able to get tickets I guess.

    Starts with loyalty points and if you haven't got any it goes by how many cup games you went to and then just pot luck.

    I think if you have a season ticket you are guaranteed to be able to buy tickets to a cup final. Afew years ago I remember a team (i forgot who) had a smaller allocation at Wembley then they had season tickets and there was loads of bother about that.

    But Im about 80% sure season ticket holders can get cup final tickets. I know that dosnet help if you dont have a ST, but Ill throw it out there anyway.

    There are only 30k ST holders so everyone would get one, but not every ST holder could make it to be fair. Then members will get them. No doubt MA would take the lowest allocation possible. Probably only get 3000 tickets.

    Going to the semi final helps to get final tickets too.
