@BalladMan I remember Sunderland didn't sell all theirs (they’d just played at Wembley in the trophy final or something, and it’s a very expensive day out with trains etc). Didn’t remember us getting some of their allocation though. Thought there were just a few areas with empty seats?

Allocation this time is 35k. We took 40k last time so pretty sure we got some extra. Hopefully the same again this time as I can’t see Leyton taking 35k.
I think Orient took 23k to Wembley for their league one final in 2014, they will probably do around the same this time.
I reckon they'll get near to 30k as a lot of West Ham will want to go.
Why did a lot of West Ham not go in 2014 then? Personally i can't see them selling more than 25-27k.
I don't really think anyone has to worry about getting a ticket given that we will almost certainly end up with 40-45k if we want them.
I think a lot of West Ham will go, no idea what happened over a decade ago but I reckon they’ll sell ~30k this time.
Either way you’re right though, any Charlton fan who wants a ticket will get one as well probably have more than we need.
I guess a London derby final v Charlton will probably attract more casual fans on their side, some West ham etc, as last time they got to Wembley they played Rotherham.
Loads of West Ham and Spurs fans I know are planning to go dressed as Orient.
I imagine from our side, if we restrict ticket sales to VG and Season Ticket holders to 4 per person and people with a prior purchase history (either ticket purchase or Charlton TV for international fans wanting to attend) to 4 per person at second tier, everyone who wants a ticket should get one.
To be honest I'm not that fussed about going. I've been to both play-off finals previously and it wasn't all that! Nothing for a whole game and a bit of action at the end. A bit like most games of this season. Can't think why people would bother.

Is it any wonder that NJ described the whole thing as a circus?

It needs to be as there are only 8 days remaining to sell the things, unless you can pay on the gate...............

Unless six years ago it was the same cost across all three Finals?
