With £8k less than the semi and more to players etc I seriously doubt it.

Their tickets go on General Sale on Sunday. Probably means that they are going to get the extra 4,000 seats which would be a bit of a blow to some peoples hopes. I think there's a good chance we might get 1,500 extra tickets or so from the FA. This happened in the semi-final and the cup-final
I am not sure about Wigan selling out. If all their match goers have bought by Sunday, how many people who live in Wigan and never go to the match are going to fork out £85 on this plus travel. I'm not convinced.
Think Wigan rugby play that day too although away
Wigan are away in Hull in the RL Challenge Cup so it won't affect their demand for FA Cup Final Tickets.
Found a slight issue with the online ticket portal earlier by mistake. If you are setup to buy tickets for yourself and a friend or family member and they are setup with both the same people. For example them and you, this is what you can do. Both log onto the portal using different PC's, select your category, section and a ticket for each person. These can be different category and sections etc. Both press 'buy tickets' at the same time and you will both be sent through to the payment page where you can process the order. In other words you can order 4 tickets off 2 season cards. I presume the club would cancel one order but you never know. I've not tried this myself although is a problem if not picked up by the club I suppose as people will be able to order double there allocation.
I was wrong about Wigan only having £85 tickets left. Took it from a Wigan message board but it's since been contradictedTim of the Oak said:Millwallawayveteran1988 said:Marvin said:Wigan only have £85 tickets left.

Perhaps you should bring this to the club's attention. As you say they will of course cancel one of the transactions so you wouldn't get the 4 tickets. They might even cancel both transactions so you wouldn't get any!! Really not worth the risk imo.mrn1981 said:Found a slight issue with the online ticket portal earlier by mistake.

Media assumed they sold 22k because they returned 10k, but I believe they sold 18k.philiph20 said:I'm sure Wigan will sell out, if they sold 22,000 for the semi they will shift 25,000 for the final no problem.
I am not sure they will sell their full allocation as I think they have a lot of the £115, and £85 tickets left, however they have yet to go on general sale
OK. I don't know about that but I expect they will issue an update to their supporters before then.It'sABlueWorld said:Marvin said:Wigan only have £85 tickets left.

Wigan always had the extra 4,000 tickets from the upper tier, which have also sold out. I think the FA probably told them they had to sell them in a certain order, telling fans they only had 21,000 was probably the best way to go about it.
I haven't heard anything about extra tickets in the Wigan lower tier though?
I was thinking that if Wigan don't sell the 21k, the 4k might go to City, but of course Wembley couldn't release 4k seats in the Wigan side of the ground to City. Maybe the neutral tickerts could be re-worked though. I'm expecting an additional small allocation to be made to City if we sell the 26k as that's what has happened before
