For us folks who don't have the privilege that come with Season tickets, Ambassadors etc. The only way to get tickets for Wembley is the General Sale that starts on Feb 21st. By that point of course, we could be talking only hundreds of tickets left on sale, so overnight queuing at CCS is the safest option for me.
I did it for the play off final 2 years back and had a whale of a time. Must had turned up around 8pm the night before and was about 20th in the queue. By the time the ticket office opened in the morning, there must have been at least 300 people in line. So who is in the same boat as me?

we did it for the 2003 playoff final, was working abroad and unable to get a ticket, the club then announced they had a few hundred left for sale on the monday morning, queued from about 9pm with a mate, was great laugh to be fair, learnt my lesson though and had a season ticket ever since.
wouldn't fancy a sleepout in feb though

FA Cup Semi was a good night. This was before the club came up with (half) decent plans for tickets. Queued through the night even as a ST holder

I was a ST holder and queued with two Hull stubs for the Cup Semi Final
Was a horrible drive back down West after sitting it out all night.
Not a season ticket holder this year so I might have to do it again

Camped outside the Grange End entrance for the Pompey cup final tickets. There were about 50 of us at 9pm the night before with a cooking stove, a cd player with James Foxx playing and stories of City games from down the years, literally one of the best footballing nights I've had

I'll be doing it as I have on previous occasions, if you want something bad enough you do what's neccasary, I'm assuming that there will be tickets available as it could turn out that there ain't any available.

Who stated there would be some tickets left over for general sale????
They will be distributed to members last of all I imagine.
There wont be many left over anyway, if 10000 renew.
They shouldnt go on general sale as the plastic Liverpool fans, then would be entitled....

Andy I also heard there is no chance of public sale, but Im choosing to ignore all wembley ticket talk as its the same everytime we have a big game.

Id be surprised if there are any left for general sale and if so it will be very few.
In saying that not everyone who is entitled to a second ticket will be taking one. In theory my lot could have 3 extra but undecided if we will take them yet.
