Is it a conspiracy to ask if any non-Charlton fans have tickets rather than be claiming they have? I must re-phrase my words as I meant long term supporters not currently season ticket holders, else we'd have been okCroydon said:PrincessFiona said:
well done! I have similar when I'm at work, but without such a long walk. But I'm WFH and didn't get anyThrappersAddick said:Close call...I work in prisons, so managed to bring a meeting forward to 1, rushed the governor through the meeting, got back to the manager's office to get in the queue. All good, like 214 in the queue, and got into the site quite quickly. Got the tickets bagged, went to pay.
Bloody one time passcode needed.
Mobiles aren't allowed in prison, so queue the panic, and a manic fast walk (not allowed to run in prison either) from the furthest point from the main gate as I could possibly be, an a jog all the way round to the back of the prison to my car, get the code, call the office where a colleague was waiting for the code. I'm knackered, sweating and not looking good but happy and totally worth it!!! See you Sunday! Whoop whoop!!
Started waiting early but ended up only 2100 in the queue, which scuppered me
How many non Charlton fans have tickets whilst long-term regulars don't?
This conspiracy theory is getting out of control0 -
how many more do we genuinely think we could sell i would say at a push 5/6000?0

There was a minibus of us up from Hythe for the 1998 final, including a very excitable Aussie who got quite the treat for his first live football match. Twas ever thus, you can't escape the fact there will be a few mates and hangers on there. But I can't believe for one second any Charlton regular will miss out given the way the phases were arranged.6

It is - seriously overestimating a neutral interest in League One.Croydon said:PrincessFiona said:

Managed to get five in 534, hopefully can see who is who

Wembley has a capacity of 90k, so assuming that Orient sell a maximum of 25k, at present 60k have been sold.Taking away a very generous 10k for corporate I would have a guess Charlton could be given another 10k.From afar, it does not seem to be a problem the availability, more a case of being able to purchase them.8

Based on current sales rate and compared to last time around, another 10-12k, which is then more than last time in total, however we have no real idea of number of tickets sold so farpalarsehater said:how many more do we genuinely think we could sell i would say at a push 5/6000?

I meant long-term supporters not currently season ticket holders. I appreciate not having a season ticket at the moment means I'm not currently a regular, so don't get (nor deserve any level of priority - bar non Charlton fans!!)RDG said:There was a minibus of us up from Hythe for the 1998 final, including a very excitable Aussie who got quite the treat for his first live football match.

Well we have so far, but hopefully will get more tickets. But they could go just as easily, unfortunately0 -
@SoundAsa£ message me within the next 10 minutes.
Edit - too late, but keep the faith - message people on the Spares thread or wait for the next sales drop.1 -
Just keep refreshing, blocks are popping up every minute or so1 - Sponsored links:

They don't even have to delay the general sale from tomorrow afternoon. Just make extra tickets available asap and allow members to purchase up to 2pm tomorrow, when they then, if still available, go on general sale. Don't understand why each phase has to start at 2pm.6
-
Keep trying, seats are still appearing. Even if it says sold out, refreshing again can change that and more will hopefully pop up.KettsJohn said:Yes gutted. No tickets for me and 10 year old grandson. First Wembley final I will have missed unless more are released to us. Needless to say if anyone has any spares please DM me. Happy to have two adults if it gets us there. I am still holding onto hope. 55 years of supporting Charlton.
If not, I’m sure we’ll get more and there will be spares.0 -
need Wembley and EFL to release them3

Because they need to actually ask Wembley for the extra allocation, they won't just conjure up an extra 8k seats with immediate effectsuperclive98 said:They don't even have to delay the general sale from tomorrow afternoon.

They don’t chop Wembley 50/50. Issues around sharing turnstiles are the big factor. Can’t really have thousands of fans from each side in a queue to enter the ground right next to each other.ElfsborgAddick said:Wembley has a capacity of 90k, so assuming that Orient sell a maximum of 25k, at present 60k have been sold.Taking away a very generous 10k for corporate I would have a guess Charlton could be given another 10k.From afar, it does not seem to be a problem the availability, more a case of being able to purchase them.Sunderland in 2022 got just shy 44k, Birmingham in the trophy got about the same. Imagine they will give us that max, and the remaining seats will be in tier 5. Dependant on Orient shifting between 20k -25k tickets.0 -
How can they “just make extra tickets available asap” if all of the original allocation has pretty much been sold and additional allocation hasn’t yet been provided?superclive98 said:They don't even have to delay the general sale from tomorrow afternoon.

How many did the scum take to the autowindscreen? 45k?0

It's never a full 90k though. Palace and City at the weekend both sold their allocations, attendance was given as 84k.ElfsborgAddick said:Wembley has a capacity of 90k, so assuming that Orient sell a maximum of 25k, at present 60k have been sold.Taking away a very generous 10k for corporate I would have a guess Charlton could be given another 10k.From afar, it does not seem to be a problem the availability, more a case of being able to purchase them.
But you're right, we will be given more. Another (possible) 10k fans paying 40 quid a ticket plus whatever they spend in and around the ground, Wembley aren't turning that down.

I'd say good chance they've made arrangements prior to today to get extra tickets once it sells out given the hype around the club lately and the sell out in the semi's.sam3110 said:

Absolutely, but there will be lots of instances of people buying the max out on the off chance they have people who may want them. E.I they need two definitely and two more are a maybe.The Red Robin said:

We effectively sold 11k in 45 mins and there is small cohort on here saying they haven't got tickets yet. Extrapolate that to the outside world and I genuinely believe we could sell another 10-12k possibly more. Seems the demand for this is unprecedented.palarsehater said:how many more do we genuinely think we could sell i would say at a push 5/6000?5 -
But that conversation really shouldn't take very long, as it's not like it is anything unusual.sam3110 said:

Yes a friend of mine didElfsborgAddick said:This morning, I have been trying to help @SoundAsa£ with a ticket, he has been receiving an error code once he has got into Wembley match tickets. He had to key in his email address and password and then ERROR CODE popped up.Has anybody else had this problem?1 -
and just to break down the numbers for the last couple of Finals, ignoring the COVID years, and inc. the attendance the last time Orient made the FinalChris_from_Sidcup said:

Well done - did need you need to get several together? That's what scuppered us, plus me wanting to avoid too many stairsDave2l said:Heart is still pounding. I was pretty certain I couldn't get tickets after constant decline but then got very lucky I guess.
Don't give up
Just got 2 next to each other and I think they were the only seats in the block.
Was just going back and forth on the upper tier purple seats always saying sold out etc
That process was more tense and worrying then I thought it would be.4 -
I believe the playoffs are actually the domestic matches that have the most fans from each side in attendance, because there’s nowhere near as many tickets that go to corporate hospitality or the “FA family” as FA Cup (or even League Cup) finals.Chris_from_Sidcup said:
