They said 150 coaches went from Leicester so why not us?

I am sure that I read that the final is a Government trial rather than a relaxing of regulations. There are no U18's at the final due to it being a trial game for spectators.

Was said Leicester got 6000 tickets so Chelsea assuming the same so that's 12000 fans and 8000 for neutral fans? That's to many and not fair on the finalists in my book?

The good thing is, if we get there, we will get enough tickets for all our fans.

Exactly, a lot of folk come out for big games like this and are then never seen again. Hate even talking about Wembley yet seeing that we have two mega tough games to negotiate first. However I hope the club are giving some thought to prioritising regular fans who for whatever reason don’t have season tickets. Trust membership, donations to the crowd funder and even share holders could maybe considered. However the latter when many of us gave £50 was a long time ago. I was philosophical about not getting a Home leg ticket but would be distraught if we make it through and I can’t be there.

How’s about Shrimpsvoices members get four tickets each then I can take all my lads like last time.LOL

I got the coach run by the Ranch House to the Exeter play-off final @ Wembley in 2007.

Most of those on the coach were more interested in how many tins they could chuck down their neck, and break a record for the number of fag stops a coach could make enroute to London.

Sure I read somewhere that the finals for all play offs will be a max of 10,000.

I understand that the leagues have complained about the numbers but heard nothing to date.

I may well be wrong on this, but I thought it was 10,000 each club, not split between the two?

Just saying in another thread there is a 1500 allocation for each club in the FA Vase on Saturday.

3000 allocation for each Club in the FA Trophy on 22nd
