http://www.bcfc.co.uk/news/article/wembley-sales-top-21000-2288864.aspx Member sales begin from 8am Monday, now with option to buy four tickets. Just over 21,000 tickets have been snapped up for the Johnstone’s Paint Trophy final against Walsall at Wembley on March 22nd. Season ticket holders have had a week to buy up to four tickets each, with more than 14,000 purchased in the first day. The exclusive period for season ticket holders ends tonight, with sales now at 21,036. Forever Bristol Members will be next to purchase from 8am in the morning (Monday) – and the club has decided to extend their option to buy up to four tickets per membership, rather than two as originally advertised. Given the numbers involved, and the club’s initial allocation of 39,000 tickets for the Wembley final, tickets will reach general sale, which is due to begin on March 2nd at 8am.

I'm a little surprised at only 21,000 to season ticket holders, when up to 36,000 could have been sold to that top priority group. Anyway, I hope this means that everyone who wants a ticket will be able to get one. I'll hope to watch the match online, and will be there with you all in spirit.
I still find it bizarre that people with a Forever Bristol membership get priority over general... I've been to about 10 games this season and someone who hasn't been to any but have been to a basketball/rugby game get a ticket first... Should have just been ST then general. Ah well, I've been told I'm guaranteed a seat if I buy one on March 2nd..
Had a membership early on, as cant get to every game. Knew that I could get 2 tickets so bought wife a membership ( she has also been to 10 home games this season) so that we could then buy 3- Get told this morning that I could have bought 4 anyway!
It's not a membership where you go to one rugby game and get it free It was bought out due to the demand for tickets at home, to give people a better chance at getting a ticket for busy games. If you are a season ticket for the Rugby they automaticaly get a membership card but only season holders.
