I bought 4 tickets in 251 front row on Tuesday and another 8 in 251 on Thursday. My mate has Club Wembley and I think a lot of Gas are in these seats. By all accounts as the club said today these are not included when the ticket sales numbers are announced. Don't think anyone actually knows the true story. To my knowledge level 2 seats have sold fairly well in these areas.

@conferencefootie have tweeted you can buy tickets directly from Wembley on Sunday having prevously suggested only tickets would be sold via Seetickets, although no prices have been mentioned but I assume the booking & postage fees won't be charged if you buy them on Sunday?

We seem to be stuck on 24000 for ever!!! Surely must be nearing 45000 total now and if Grimsby are nearing 12000 then if we are only on 24000 thats about 36000 leaving up to 9000 neutrals. can't believe there will be that many neutrals wanting to watch a Conference Final!! Will be very surprised if we arent near 30000 now.

No doubt they'll still charge you £1.95 to "hand over" the ticket.

I suspect the final number of rovers fans in attendance even after the game will remain one of life's mysteries - all wel'll know is 'grimsby took about 13,000 and rovers sold more by a ratio of 2.379:1'

Yes, his company have Club Wembley tickets so bought 4 on Tuesday and a further 8 on Thursday. Rows 8/9. Other mates have opted for Bobby Moore hospitality. I don't believe these sales count when the conference announce numbers. In club shop earlier the figure was 24k gasheads, but I can't believe that is all we have sold.

I don't know how the club seem to know but see tickets and the conference havent said a word! In my opinion I reckon they've just looked at seen that grimsby have sold 12k with 7k neturals and just took 19k away from the 43,000 total

Just seen on the Subs Bench Extra show that Rovers have sold 40000. Also, fans who have bought tickets in neutral areas and have Bristol area addresses have been told to go to west ticket office on Sunday to swap for tickets in rovers end. My mate and brother have received emails. So could well be a few more rovers fans added on the day!

Unfortunately - NO. Have you ever watched it...it is truly dire and an embarrassment to our area. A Conference confirmed total of over 43k tickets sold. So according to "Subs Bench Experts" Grimsby and Neutrals have bought 3k between them

Of course, they knew they were going to do this, all along, they just wanted to misinform everyone to maximise their advance sales. Also, if they charge 1.95 for people picking up their tickets at the ticket office, pretty sure they'll charge people 'handling' for buying on the day.

No doubt they'll still charge you £1.95 to "hand over" the ticket. Quite. I expect there to be a range of options. VIP Right hand express: £4.50. They'll hand over the ticket with their good hand, which is a bit quicker than using their left hand. And the assistant calls you sir/madam as he hands it over. Left hand economy express: £3.85. Slightly slower than the right hand express option, and they don't guarantee not to drop or bend the ticket a bit before you get it. Standard option: £2.50: The bloke behind the counter puts it on a pile, and then a second bloke behind the counter picks up the pile and sorts through the tickets before finding yours, then tuts a bit and hands it over. Budget option: £1.95: Guaranteed to lose your ticket, tell you you're not on their list anyway, then they find you on their list and make you wait fifteen minutes while they look for the ticket again, and then blame you for losing it. It's all about choice.

The only important line there was ; ""We all don't like paying money, but it's a choice at the end of the day."
That's fine, but its not a choice for people who can't afford it. And for those people this article is patronising.

I thought it was a soft greasy baguette, with the thinnest overcooked microwaved piece of bacon known to man, but yet again i got it wrong

Chill out, We have different opinions of that , i can't go for health reasons but as someone who couldn't afford it straight out ,if i could have gone i would have sold something to get my tickets, it's a way of life for us poor people (if my post offends anyone, please read my avatar as it means ive finally got around to you )

Now, i dont know if im missing something, but i find it hard to believe the Grimsby Town fans have got just one block on Level 2. does this mean the they could only be taking around 15,000 fans?
