The middle tier has nearly sold out in its entirety already, unbelievable!
It looks sold out but 40% of it hasn't been released yet. I'd expect further blocks to become available over the coming days. That's what happened last time.
Any idea whether more seats will be released in the lower tiers?
I think it’s unlikely. If we get extra tickets from Orient I would assume they will be upper tier. Only chance of lower tier extras would be unsold hospitality maybe?
Orient fans have been saying that they only had seats available at the eastern end of the stadium.
Their website also states the following 'Tickets will be sold on a block-by-block basis in an order determined by Wembley Stadium.'.
They may actually give the central category one blocks to us if we sell out our allocation and Orient don't. Quite a few Orient fans are unhappy that they haven't been able to buy any category one seats and this still doesn't appear to have changed.
I don't know how many tickets Orient will sell, but I suspect that it will be more than a lot of people on here are expecting.
Orient's allocation goes on general sale at 10:00 on Wednesday and, as I had to sit in the home end when we played them away this season, I suspect that I will be eligible and can get an idea of what they have sold.
I was going to wait for the general sale but found a work around. I’ve bought 4 u11 season tickets for next season, which has meant I’ve been able to buy 48 tickets for Wembley in the hardcore singing section. Once you get the tickets you can cancel the season tickets and get a refund for them.
Looking forward to it, we’ve got 7 Charlton fans, 5 of which who haven’t been since the Prem days and most don’t know any of the current players. Some of their other halves and kids are also coming along - not all football fans but they said they’re up for the drinks beforehand and the football should be an experience. Got some Millwall, Palace, Leicester and Man Utd mates too. Rest are for a few blokes from work and their friends of friends. Some of the work mates weren’t sure but one of them convinced them it would be a fun day out in London and they could go to a museum and an art gallery in the morning.
Logged on around 3. 45pm.(On a train from Penrith) Wanted middle tier 4 tickets, shocked to find just the odd single seat left all around the blocks I tested. So have bought in top tier. Somebody commented some blocks have yet to be released.
I bought my 16 year old niece a ticket. She has never bought a match day ticket but she volunteers at the Valley for St John’s every week so I don’t feel bad about that. She really wants to go. One of my friends, an Arsenal season ticket holder, asked me if I could buy him, he attended the 1998 final with me. I bought one for him as well, I don’t feel bad about that either, the more the merrier. Additionally I bought myself and another for my mate who I attend matches with.
I also bought my season ticket for next season.
I know it will give some the hump but the reality is if you want to go to Wembley next week you will get a ticket, just maybe not today.

There’s only a handful of middle tier seats left available according to the ticket site?
Pissed off as live in USA but subscribe to Charlton TV season pass and been a member of International Addicks for a number of years. Been to 4 games this year including Crawley! I don’t get any priority until phase 5. It seems all the tix will have gone by then.

@MartinCAFC This was my screen-grab at 1pm yesterday, the start of the sale to the top 134. A big chunk of the middle tier was not for sale, and still hasn't been, to the best of my knowledge. Of those blocks, some or all will currently be accessible to Club Wembley members and hospitality sales.
Eventually, once the Club Wembley window has been been give more time, or we've sold out more seats in the upper tier and nearing selling that out, I'd expect more of the middle tier blocks/seats to be made available by the club for us to buy.
Something similar played out last time. I remember well as I bought 40-ish in the middle tier in 2019, and I was compromised in how close I could get them. But a few days later more blocks opened, and I would have been able to breeze in and get a perfect 40 all together. By the time they went on sale demand from our fanbase had petered out and they didn't all sell - see below.
No inside info on my part, I'm only guessing based on past and present patterns.
251 is where my seats for the diamond package are , purchased through Wembley . So I’m guessing that 242-251 are for as many as they can flog of that stuff and then I presume what isn’t sold later on in the week will get released

Exactly this. Similar pattern for the home leg last week. Some unsold West stand seats attached to lounge passes and selling for 5x the regular seat price, appeared to be dumped on the main ticket site as regular seats-only.
Hope some of the extra blocks are released sooner than later, would be gutted to buy tickets in the gods today, for closer seats to become available. Im fine wherever, but do worry about my sons attention span if we are away from any kind of atmosphere.
AT 2019 Play offs it felt that the ticket sales went at a slower pace, I got the highest priced seats in the lower level no problem. This time I logged on 15mins before 3pm & was 4502 in queue and couldn't get 4 seats togther in the best priced seats so ended up in top deck. Not ideal but it is what it is and I can't afford Diamond package at £379 for the very best seats and don't want a 3 course meal before.It feels that we sold more on day one than in 2019, is this the case? I have two season tickets & bought 4 tickets, so I'm guessing that with 8,000 ST's we might sell 5K ST's x 4 TKTS= 20K, 2K ST X 3 TKS = 6K, 1K ST X 1TKT = 1K so could be @ 27K on season ticket sales alone so 9K for general sales? We will be offered more and at a guess surpase the 38K sold for 2019 final ...I won't be surprised if we end up selling 42-45K in the end, who knows? Not sure why this is as we have had 6 barren years and its been pretty grim, but glad we will be going in numbers to Wembley. Shame that rain is forecast for next Sunday.
I got kicked out on Edge, re-queued on my Android, then my credit card declined twice. By 15:35 the only seats in category 4+lower together were in block 129. Now to unfreeze my credit card, stupid Tesco tw@s...
Don't think it's anything to do with your bank/card. I had problems with 'my card' last week for the play offs. I Had payment declined more than once. But using the same card managed to secure 4 tickets eventually despite having paid for 10! (The money was pending in my account for 5 days but was never actually taken)Today was the same tried twice and card was declined twice despite the bank instantly notifing me the payment had been taken(2x£136) Eventually paid on a different card. So the £272 will now be pending for a week on my card which means I can't spend it if need it! Even more frustrating when after the problems last week I logged on early this morning and registered my card on my account so I wouldn't encounter the same problems today.
There are definitely still problems with the payment system. It kept freezing for me and we had multiple card declines.
Late to the party. I had the same, declined twice. It didn’t seem to like my ‘saved card’ info and I typed it in the third time and it was fine 🤷🏻♂️. I wonder if the system was overwhelmed when we all rushed at 3pm.

Good info I'm sure I read on the other forum about someone in a similar situation contacting the club and they helped his account purchase a ticket,good stuff from them if true.

Not sure what all the drama is about?
Wanted middle tier 4 tickets, shocked to find just the odd single seat left all around the blocks I tested. So have bought in top tier. Somebody commented some blocks have yet to be released.
I saw this on the North American Addicks FB page:
