Junior Membership holders:

We appreciate that there may be a significant difference in loyalty points between junior supporters (aged 16 and under) and their parent(s) or guardian(s). A very limited allocation of tickets will be made available to 2013/14 Platinum/Gold Seasoncard holders aged 16 and under, for purchase together with a qualifying adult Seasoncard holder. At the point where the adult qualifies, they can also purchase ONE junior† ticket regardless of the junior’s loyalty point status and enrolment on the League Cup Scheme.

Please note, this option is only available to supporters purchasing over the phone, and all juniors must be accompanied by an adult (aged 18 or over). Once this limited allocation has been sold, no further tickets will be available and all junior Seasoncard holders must then qualify in their own right to purchase a ticket. Supporters will be advised at the point of sale when the limited allocation of tickets available to juniors has sold out.

†Should the 2013/14 Platinum/Gold Seasoncard holder have turned 17 during the season a ticket can still be purchased together with a qualifying adult, however the prevailing adult rate will be charged in line with the regulations of Wembley Stadium.

Please note: If the supporter number used is that of an adult, then only an adult ticket may be purchased. This also applies to 16s and under and over 65s.

Non season ticket holders have no chance. As there are 36000 season ticket holders and only 31500 tickets for the final some season ticket holders will miss out.

They may not all go - my dad won't, as he insists he's bad luck and I'm not sure if I'm going to take my two kids. Whether or not 4,500 don't is debatable.

I want to but I doubt I can afford it at the moment. I'm an season ticket holder but not on league cup scheme so I'm unsure how good my chances are anyway.

There will be a lot of people heading to Barcelona! Probably more than the 4600 ticket holders and that trip is not cheap, so there will be a lot of people deciding on one or the other.

My Gripe is, I have just short of 4k points, but the criteria jumps from 4k points to 2k? Where is the 3k mark to give me a better chance of a ticket Grrrrrr

If you were a glory hunting American in town the week prior who just cajoled his amazing wife into not bitching for the next 3 years if he stays on in London an extra weekend how would you go about getting a ticket?

This isn't about me, but a close friend. Ahem.

Cheers

If you know anyone who is a member of a supporters club for a league (not premier league) side see if they can help. Some clubs get an allocation (being the league cup) which they use up on their members or they send them back.

They might be having a laugh at the £100 ticket but they know they will still be snapped up.
