I'll probably get flamed for this, but here goes.......
Does anyone else think that there are too many disabled/wheelchair tickets ?? Sounds like there are a good hundred or so left which could go to an able bodied person. Its not as if the 'space" couldn't be used by anyone else. Would peeve me if I couldn't get a ticket but saw on tv a number of empty seats.....and that would probably just be for their helper / carer.
At Wembley the disabled seats (wheelchair space) are flat areas near concourses so not really taking up any space. They have a lot there admittedly but they come in very handy when Millwall repeatedly make it to Wembley.
Most venues make next to no provision for wheelchairs - at least at Wembley there is space available.
There's no concern generally for the lack of provision or poor access. I get the impression a lot of venues see wheelchair users as a hindrance.
A lot of venues are old and weren’t designed for wheelchairs, so have had to adopt DDA, whereas Wembley would have been designed with DDA in mind.
Regardless of the venue there is usually an inadequate number of wheelchair spaces - I have two daughters who are wheelchair users and it's always a struggle to book things. The wheelchair seating even in a lot of modern venues(esp cinemas) is situated in some ridiculous positions.
The best stadiums I've been to for wheelchair access are the Olympic Stadium and MK Dons. No idea what Wembley is like?
I'm glad that Wembley at least provides a reasonable number of seats and disappointed to see those moaning on here about it.
The Olympic Stadium wheelchair spaces are in a great location, indeed that mid level is the best part of the stadium! Great view, easy to get in and out, near the food and toilets etc
How many people have received their tickets so far, I checked and after 3 days my credit card is still showing payment pending for my ticket.
I ordered 7 tickets Saturday morning which came yesterday and i ordered 1 on Sunday which hasn't as of yet, both lots of monies taken from account. Edited. My other one has just been delivered now.
Yep, did two different transactions on Sunday. Credit card account finally showing the debits this morning and hopefully the tickets will arrive today / tomorrow.
What is it with people !! There is usually no postal collections after midday on a Saturday so the earliest that tickets would have been able to be posted out would have been yesterday. Ticket staff at The Valley would have had around 30k to send out by then.
Have some patience ffs
All those envelopes that need stamps. Sod licking all them!
I'm pretty sure a figure of 40k was banded about for our support at the time of 98 play off final, no? Must have been a generous element of rounding up from the mid 30k figure quoted on here recently.
I suspect blocks 550 and 551 are still to be sold which is imagine will take us up to the sell out. They may be left until the end for segregation purposes if we do not sell out.
I got tickets in 550 on Monday, so definitely up for sale
