All members of the FA get a pair of tickets. That's all the tiny affiliated clubs in the whole country. If you have a local FA registered club, take the Secretary out for a meal. I am not joking. Then there's corporates, etc. It has always been this way and has always been shite and a real windfall for touts.

I'm going to London for the pre- and post-match party. Will probably end up watching the game in a pub, though.

I'd like to know if there going to continue the bullshit cup direct schemer's come first thing for the final or if it was just a treat for the semi because they knew it would go to general sale anyway before i take a guess.
I'm thinking the price considering its stoke might put a few people off though.

I've been offered 2 tickets in the family enclosure - do you think I should take them? In all seriousness how difficult is it likely to be to get tickets by any other means - I have no season ticket / points...

As I said, tickets will be like Rocking Horse shit and I'd guess that all those who thought they'd give the semi a miss will now turn out in force. I reckon they won't get much further than 3,000 points, in my opinion.
And it's right about the affilates, they get 2 tickets each regardless of how big the club is, even if it's a pub side.

If it goes down to my points total and i get one happy days,if not i'll just watch it at Eastlands surrounded by blues.
Im not lining a touts pocket or being a little slag for a ticket.

There wasn't anything smart about joining the scheme, just convenient for some people. They didn't know it would happen. There we're about 6 thousand who joined it yet there was like 20,000 at most cup games. Why should they be rewarded and not the other 14,000?? It makes no sense and it makes the loyalty points system a joke, whats the point in having a loyalty points system if it comes second to a direct debit scheme? same goes for the kids with low points thing.
I got a ticket to the semi ages before they soild out so ill probably get one for the final aswell but it's still bullshit.
