Not seeing much sign of additional allocation from the way club are wording things. And also looks like Man U are selling adjacent blocks to their fans (members only). Real shame as reckon we could easily have shifted a few K more.
Keep refreshing! I've got two in my basket now and the timer is 45 minutes! Been trying since 2!
I rang up ticket office and they said it was sold out.
All sold out at 14.08 know mates that was down the valley and queueing and didn’t get tickets
I completed my purchase at just gone 3 - my card has been charged and I've got a confirmation e-mail. I've gone for postage so whether they actually turn up is a different matter.
I think they didn't take into account people perhaps using multiple accounts in order to get tickets then leaving uncompleted orders in their baskets.
and people laughed at some many phases - this ensured that those with the most history actually got the tickets
Well you could have had 50 phases or 3, it still sold out at general sale with most tickets selling in the last 36 hours. You could argue that any before the weekend didn't matter.... but it'd be pointless 😀.
I’m genuinely astonished that we’ve sold it out so quickly. Feel for those that haven’t got a ticket, but hope (and think) there will be plenty available here and on social media.
Largest away sale since 1994 (which at 10,500 was the biggest ticketed in the club’s history excluding neutral grounds AFAIK).
Didn't we take 8k plus to Middlesbrough in the cup quarters in 2004 ish
2006 - need to go back and check but I think it was a bit less than that.
Wasn't Wimbledon in '99 11k?
Must be the largest mid week away sale ever.
It was the whole Arthur Wait, IIRC, so could be a good shout. I did wonder about that.
It was Boxing Day 1998. I remember 11k being the figures mentioned at the time, out of a crowd of about 17k.
The allocation was 12,000 - the previous home programme which will have gone to press late on December 19th said we’d sold 4,500. I expect we sold a lot more but doubt it sold out. I can’t find any reference to the actual sale. The crowd was 19,000 and it was advance tickets.
Have to confess I felt lucky to get mine (if they're actually posted and it wasn't an error). Not been much last few years so feel a bit of a glory fan going to this.

Am just trying to work out what my priority will be like for the semi-final.

Great support, can't wait now.
*nobody tries much or wants to get injured*
1,000 tickets back on re-sale.
