Will we sell out?

[finlaytheblade]

Opening block 205 is bizzare. Nowhere near anything we’d been allocated previously. I wonder if it was a group of tickets in club Wembley that have said they’re categlri Not going, and they’ve been released to allow the club to have them, rather than them being left empty?

I suppose the Blades ticket office will get it in the neck again ! even though Wembley themselves are running this shit show.
Typical London attitude just want ya money.
Years ago while waiting for the coach back after a match in london(Kings cross) a pub there was selling beer to kids as young as 14 ! It had a sales window open ! Just walk up pay your money and walk away with the booze ! Yes young kids and not one copper around !! They didn't care a toss.
Give us the money.
Old Trafford was the best place I've been to for a semi-final. and would be great for a final.
Clubs and pubs strictly segregated for each club ! Get pissed in peace without being fleeced.
Them times have gone! What a shame!!!.

I’ve ended up with tickets with a poor view - not the price point I wanted - through the ticketing system.
But from what I remember, when I queued up at the ticket office to buy tickets for the old Wembley 30 years ago, you just got what you were given. And - I think - you pretty much found out where that was in the ground when you got there! Maybe we’ve got a bit used to expecting we can all have exactly what we want, when we want it, all of the time?

There isn't a poor view in Wembley, your seats will be fine

down to 250. Chipping away.

On their website it says club Wembley is a three year commitment where the purchaser has tickets for events.

Maybe they can sell individual tickets back to Wembley? But it seems a bit weird for an entire block to go on sale and not just seats dotted around all the blocks.

Don't think Club Wembley,tkts are included in our allocation of 34500,so Club Wembley tkts would be added on top of the initial allocation.

 

[JJBlade]

Sections 525 and 526 are included in our allocation and they are not even open because of the shitshow they've created

All that's going to happen now is the segregation gets moved from 527 to 525 giving Sunderland two more sections

They aren’t unless a club wembley member forgoes their seat for ‘Resale’ back to Wembley- they can’t get away with selling it to ticket websites as they clamped down on that years ago- alot of club wembley members do actually use their membership and attend.

It's strange that every single member in section 205 has decided not to attend

Block 523 which has been blanked out for the last three days and led to block 524 opening now suddenly has about a million tickets left in it

Both Sheff Utd and Sunderland started with an official ticket allocation of 35,531 each.

What a shambles. Any left in 205?

There hasn't been a ticket sold in that section for about 10 hours, exactly the same seats available as there was when I went to bed last night.
Although as we already know, that means nothing,

 

[relish]

The groups of tickets now appearing in blocks that previously looked to be sold out will be ones that have been held back for whatever reasons (for sponsors, player freebies, club staff etc etc) and are now not required.

This always happens, at all clubs. At least by putting them on sale now, these will be sold to fans instead of sitting empty.

 

[Paisley Blade]

Just successfully changed my seats to 205 via phone.
Big up ticket office.

 

[Dellas Cowboys]

Been to ticket office & swapped into 205. Helped that I'd selected them in my basket & was still within the hour time down.

Car park is full of lorries probably for the Paul Heaton concert but security let me park in a corner.

Just rung up ticket office and swapped to 205. Me and the Mrs going. Row 2. I'll be in the Retro Illuminous Top and a Panathinaikos scarf. Well done to all in the Ticket office.

526 is segregation so no tickets will be sold in there according to the ticket office.

 

[S64 Blade]

Has anyone who has swapped their tickets asked the ticket office why these other spots keep popping up, days after 'selling out'?

 

[JJBlade]

526 is segregation so no tickets will be sold in there according to the ticket office.

Segregation should be half of 526 and half of 527
As it stands it is going to end up being 525 which means Sunderland will get 526 and 527

Dunno how it's went your end re tickets, been a bit of a calamity from our end, people able to buy tickets without the correct permissions last Wednesday (non season ticket holders ) they've all been cancelled now, after the site was taken down and tickets taken off sale whilst it was rectified.

Always an expensive day out, for me £82 match ticket, £175 train ticket and £220 for one night in a central London hotel.
