Don't bother with resellers you'll get one through this site easily enough at face value. I'd be asking for help on Friday when season ticket holders can buy extra.

How would that work, sorry for all the questions. I will be in London that week so it might be difficult to meet up in Manchester to pay for and get the ticket (I assume they are physical tickets or are they digital?)

Pathetic kick off time for this. Why isnt this on a Saturday? Most kids wont be able to go as they'll get back early hours of Monday and have School the next day. As usual zero consideration for the fans and yet we'll get pelted for not selling out.

Great point.

And also why do I have to go all the way to London, why can’t they play it at villa park

And also why should I have to risk being attacked by Arsenal fans in our seats cos we can’t sell all our tickets

And also Piccadilly station is shut so I can’t catch the train there

It’s all totally pathetic

Is this a clarkie?
It's always been a Sunday. Are you new?
And who says we won't sell out. It's a final, not a semi or the shield.
And my 9 year old is going, if he sleeps in lessons I don't mind, it's "eid party day" in his school that monday, so no lessons anyway! Paaaaaarty!

But yes, always a Sunday. That's like saying why is the fa cup final a saturday. Always is, that's why.

/rant over ;)

So you are saying its always been a farcical kick off time then? Just because it's always been Sunday, doesnt mean it should remain. Like I said, plenty will have to miss it because of work or school the next day. There is no reason why that needs to be the case.

Perhaps we will sell out but from the sample size of people I know who are usually at every final and are swerving this one, i'm not overly confident we will. Besides the point either way though, the point was fans get it in the neck for not attending when it's made as hard as possible to do so.

Never said I was happy with the kick off time, I was answering about you moaning it's a Sunday, it's always been a Sunday.

I agree kick off time could be 2pm. Of our league cup finals 2014 to now, from memory at least one was a 2pm, although I think most were half 4.
 
It's not always been Sunday for the final...I can remember watching the highlights on Sunday on TV as a kid after being at the Newcastle final in '76, admittedly the world is a different place now.

I assume that a full league program was played at the same time too, as strange kick off times and live games didn't happen then. I don't even think our final was shown live?

I've been to every Wembley visit except covid and Spurs home games.
And don't recall any rival fans kicking off in our section.
Surprised it took this many pages before scared doom and gloom posts got mentioned.
I will be there cheering on our Boys in Blue hopefully watching them lift a trophy. CTID

Maybe an odd question, but whilst checking for an Adult using a child's ticket, do they also have any system for checking the gender of a supporter with the presumed gender of the name on the ticket?

I'm eligible on the first criteria but my partner has to wait until Thursday.

However, in theory there's nothing stopping her from using my mate's Supporter ID as Wembley clashes with his family holiday

Just ask her to watch this..



They wouldn’t dare question anybodys gender in this day and age!

You’re pal could be transitioning for all they know.

You will be fine mate.
I have used friends supporters numbers in the past and no issue. Once they get the email just get them to forward it on to you for download.
Only thing I wouldn't risk is buying an adults on a childs season ticket.

Do not buy from 3rd party websites! Keep your eye on here,tickets & travel exchange forum, every year at least one if not more come up, all at face value, transferred electronically or meet F2F

Some right fannies on here. It’s a final ffs. The European Cup Final kicked off at 9pm…. in Istanbul! We still took 30000 there.
Get your lazy arses down to London and cheer on your team. Up the Blues!

I think it was 10pm over there. Remember it finishing about midnight and getting back to my hotel at 3am!
 
I agree that the kick off time isn't great considering work and school.

However, it's a cup final and a morning/day off work on the Monday is very much justified. As is having a day off school for youngsters. Memories of going to Wembley to see City hopefully beat Arsenal in a cup final for a youngster will last a lifetime.

My daughter is only 2 but when she's at an age that she's coming to games, I'd not think twice of her having a day off from school 'poorly' to attend the cup final.

I agree wholeheartedly

My post was a parody of the one I was replying to.
