Can anyone remember how many we took to Wembley for the last play-off final?

Millwall fan at work stating 'there's no way you took 40k like we did'
I did point out to him about all the extended family of Millwall inbreds that crawl out of the woodwork for their big events!

Weren’t there also charlton fans saying they bought the corporate/hospitality packages (presumably Club Wembley) directly from Wembley for the matches. That would have potentially added a lot moreshirty5 said:8 -

I'd say upto 5k may not have supported Charlton.Kindoncasella said:

Yep, I was one of them, party of seven. One of them not Charlton, (my Czech neighbour) the rest definitely all Addicks. Rough guess (but I suppose the real capacity is stated somewhere) the lounge we were in held about 500.letthegoodtimesroll said:

Arguably more impressive was selling out the play off semi three days before the game.6

Weirdly, there was a bloke in a Villa tracksuit top in front of me at Wembley 2019 !!!3

Sunderland had taken 40k+ to Wembley a few weeks before that for the EFL Trophy final and were on a long run of losing at Wembley.Covered End said:2019 EFL League One play-off finalThe match took place at Wembley Stadium.

Their form also fell off a cliff in the last weeks of the season when they looked dead certs for automatic promotion but then ended up 5th. So i think a lot of their fans thought 'fuck this' and didn't bother traveling.3 -

Fair enough. Doesn’t change the fact we took a shitload of fans; and whilst there were a lot of “hanger ons” non Addicks, the overwhelming majority were Charlton!Chris_from_Sidcup said:

I have said on another post i had a spurs fan on my right and a Chelsea fan on my left. The spurs fan brought along a mate who didnt really follow anyone. So i guess it was watered down a bit.1

i was in a hospitality lounge with a small percentage of my mates, so that's another 3/4003

More importantly, who started this argument ? I bet the Millwall fan says it wasn’t him…5

Probably didn't like the math 😉2 -
27,810 for Millwall at their play off final.
Millwall fans are deluded if they think they are the better supported club. That’s never been the case. Look at attendance history. Here are the last 4 years for them.24/25 Championship 15,086 23/24 Championship 16,448 22/23 Championship 14,767 21/22 Championship 12,958
Last season was their best for 70 years:

1999 - The Lions to the club's first-ever official appearance at Wembley to face Wigan Athletic in the Auto Windscreens Shield Final. The Latics win 1-0 in front of 47,349 Millwall fans amongst a 55,000 crowd – a record number of supporters from one club at Wembley.

Villa were in the next day's Champo playoff final v Derby. I guess he was making a weekend of it. Still an odd choice of attire for the fella.Lordflashheart said:Weirdly, there was a bloke in a Villa tracksuit top in front of me at Wembley 2019 !!!1 -

The Spanner is obviously referring to the 1999 final where nearly 50,000 of them turned up. I suspect a lot were on day release.JustFloydRoad said:

Portsmouth would've eclipsed that in 2020 (they sold over 50k) but their final was postponed because of covid and played later on.guinnessaddick said:1999 - The Lions to the club's first-ever official appearance at Wembley to face Wigan Athletic in the Auto Windscreens Shield Final.

They get to win the Auto Windscreens Shield cup (is it me or is that funny considering it was called that) though, cute.0 -
