Great effort if we sell out in three days. Remember queuing for over five hours in 1998. Took me just four minutes to sort my tickets out yesterday. Well done to the ticket office staff.
Just got ours, the queue was surprisingly short...about 5 minutes just 400 in front of me. Got 2 in area 543 row 5 so up in the gods but we are in! Booked on a train from Hastings to Gatwick.....off to Jersey for a chill out few days before the big weekend.
The record attendance for a League One play-off Final at Wembley was the 1999final, when Manchester City played Gillingham and the attendance stood at 76,935
Amazed at the take up. Great job. Hope everyone that wants a ticket gets one. I got my 6 this morning, all lapsed season ticket holders plus a chap flying in from Canada. Top tier right at the front, perfect for us and at £40 an adult and &20 kids/OAPs it is good value too. Easy to get, site worked fine although would have been nice to have a pointer to the wembley tickets rather than hunting around as others on here have done, but that is minor. Well excited, COYA.
Not sure why people are surprised these tickets are selling out, as Millwall have always managed to sell loads of Wembley tickets
If you sell 24000 Valley tickets for the semi, then 37000 Wembley tickets is easily done, especially as Wembley is still iconic, but also so convenient for the more "casual" fan being brought along. If the national stadium was located in Manchester, I doubt the tickets would have sold so fast.

I said to some others on Saturday it was a shame we didn't have a Fleetwood or Accrington as I could easily see us taking 50k+.
To then see sales of only 13k on Saturday really through me though.

My sister in law was trying to get 28 tickets yesterday - in the end she gave up and just got 4 - I expect the same was happening to lots of people yesterday hence why it seemed slower than expected. If Millwall could do 47k, we could do 70k I reckon - lets call it 75k, for old times sake.
Meanwhile on the Sunderland forum, some posters saying they still have around 7k tickets left and will probably reach phase 3 of sales. Very surprised at that but i guess they were only there about 4 weeks ago.

Would mean we've sold about 15-16k in less than 4 hours today.
