Anyone who is watching the playoff final in a pub or club in Sydney, Australia - come over to the KUMB forum known as "supporters worldwide" (mind the tumbleweeds) and let us know where you are gathering.

Thanks

Block 135 is definitely where all the cool cats are

Oh yes

[Iron George]

anyone got tickets for the cricket that weekend?

I have

Lord's till the lunch interval and then a quick hop over to Wembley - there are worse ways to spend a Saturday !!

Plus , the last time i went to cricket before a WHU game we destroyed Villa 4-0 - so hoping for a similar effect

Does anyone know how many Academy Members there are? Someone mentioned previously that it was about 10,000 - is this accurate?

My brother shares a season ticket with his mate meaning one of them is currently going to miss out unless some tickets go to general sale. Gutted for them but if we have in excess of 35,000 tickets then surely there's a decent chance some will go to gen sale?

They'll have to do a half each

Just popped on a Blackpool forum and couple of them are buying vuvuzelas, I swear they are banned from grounds?

[Gatekeeper]

I have just contacted 'seeticket' and they aren’t likely to go on general sale

they are from club grounds... no idea if the fa formally banned them from wembley though

Hang on, according to the plan in this thread:

I thought exactly the same until checking the layout in the Cardiff program - We are Block 142 Row 5 as well ! Seats 249 - 257

ah ha, an answer to a question i thought of. Something like....if you dress up in bright orange, speak fluent northern, paint your face orange, call yourself a Tangerine...How can you possibly make it worse??

Now i know

David Gold has said that there is a ticket for EVERY member which would mean some will more than likely go on GS

38,500 is the official number of tickets we've been allocated.
circa 26,000 season ticket holders (I've seen a few figures but this seems to be the highest) one each
up to 10,000 members according to Gold (which I'd be surprised at but still) assuming every single one of them buys one ticket each that leaves
2,500 minimum to go to general sale, so by pure maths alone there is bound to be a few left for general sale for those lucky enough to get connected at 9:01 on Monday morning.

Actually, forget everything I just said. There won't be any for general sale. Don't bother ringing up Monday morning. Have a lay in. Nothing to see here.

Whats the concensus here in terms of Blackpool allocation.
I don't doubt for a minute that they wont sell out but there must be a much greater chance of their allocation going to General Sale than ours before the sell out happens.
If so how do you think they will police that, i'm guessing it will be via a buy in person policy

Fans with previous booking history with the club (Blackpool) will get priority before any Tom, Dick and Harry off the street can get one I should imagine...
