Probably less than 10% of those who go to Wembley ever go on the train anyway. An old saying and a very true one; a lazy and non committed person will take no time to find a reason not to do something.
'It's a Sunday'
'It's only a friendly'
'There's no trains'
'It's the holidays'
'It's expensive'
'We were there in March'
'The players won't take it seriously'
'It's on the TV'
All easy option lame soft arse excuses of convenience. As someone has already said, many of those who won't bother going are the same crew who whinge about not getting Cup Final tickets!
My soft arse lame excuse is I cannot afford now kindly do one
Can't be bothered is my excuse

I haven't had a chance to see until today and there was only one half of the lower tier from corner to behind the goal and three blocks or so round the opposite corner. No choice about what seat number, just had to take what was offered. Now all lower tier blocks behind the goal are listed.
Don't want them to believe this is their yearstirlingblue said:I'm going myself. Will be my third game of the season as already been to Dundee and Hearts. That said if I manage to secure a Newcastle ticket I may have to re-think as finances are not limitless (only went to Dundee and Hearts as they are on my doorstep). Normally avoid friendlies like the plague but think the Arse at Wembley will be a little less friendly despite my previous comments about 'glorified friendly'. Just hope we do take it seriously and lay down a marker.

But last time we lost a Charity Shield at Wembley, we went on to have the best season of all time. Nothing will ever beat that season, even if it was agonising at times.
Understand most blues have to budget, but as far as an away day goes it's as cheap as doing a London game 25 years ago, throw into that 20,000 blues, wembley and if you get the right driver, a cheap carry on on the coach, it's not expensive. Usually 4/5 of us go to wembley in the car, but only me this time, so going on the local minibus, the other lads excuses are washing their hair, migraine and their nails won't be dry in timecheddar404 said:happychappy said:Yeh, know how you feel mate, my ticket was £20 and the minibus £15grim up north said:My soft arse lame excuse is I cannot afford now kindly do one
That's 35 quid that could be put towards Newcastle away or one of the champions league matches. People don't have an endless supply of cash so maybe trekking to the other end of the country for a friendly gets sacrificed by some.

This a.m. you could still get row 2 in 507 which is on the NE corner. Thousands of tickets left IMO. However, blocks 522 to 526 on half way line have never been on sale to my knowledge. This equates to about 6,000 tickets which will most likely be offered to the tarquins as this section forms a continuous section from their original allocation. If we get 20,000 going I will be very surprised. This is still good for a glorified friendly IMO.

Please share with me how you know "thousands of tickets are left" there is no seat plan when booking the ticket on line and the ticket office only comment the tickets are selling "steadily" , perhaps you have inside knowledge at wembley .

That'll be why you aren't able to purchase a ticket yet. Only one ticket at the moment per registered supporter with purchase history. If you want more than one ticket (together) then a SC holder on this forum may be able to help if you don't want to wait for general sale (and hope of being able to get more than one ticket).Stanger said:Plaything of the gods said:Are you a registered supporter (you have to be to log in and buy tickets) with a purchase history?Stanger said:The website says the tickets go on general sale on 22nd July Tuesday 9 am.
