You reckon? Must be a 30k allocation. So for about 36000 season ticket holders that's 5 out of 6 season ticket holders would need to go. I need to wait for less than 2000 points with season tickets so I can get 2 sat together with my son but I think that will be ok. Holidays and hopefully the cost of a Champs League Final should rule a few out. Booked my travel and hotel already so certainly hope so!
I honestly think there will be a freezing frenzy around these tickets
Any season ticket holder not going will be getting mithered by folk wanting to go
Over 29/1
Might be worth a tenner to soften the blow if the worse happens. That's one tenner I'd happily lose though.

This is the perfect storm of a season , beat the media darlings to the title , revenge on Real for last years semi-final and putting the Rags in their place at Wembley , this could be the pinnacle of my 50 odd years as a blue , and its not a pipedream but a distinct possibility , drink it in Blues.
& putting the witch hunt by the football authorities to bed once & for all.

Well, you're leaving it a bit ambiguous, to be fair. What do you understand to be a negative result? A draw? I might take that, if you guaranteed me beating United. In fact I probably would.
And do you mean a negative result for the whole season — as in not being champions at the outcome? You seem to be saying not, in that you've said a one off match.
I actually think that even if we draw against the Arse, we'll still win the league.

My post was in answer to why there were already twice the number of posts for the Cup Final as there were on the imminent Arse game thread. I just think the anxiety of losing to the rags far outweighs losing the game against Arsenal … and should it be possible to choose the outcome of just one then it would be to win the cup - hence more posts in that thread.
So I was trying (not very well) to say if it could be guaranteed to win the cup then I’d rather be left with the jeopardy of chasing down Arsenal. Obviously all hyperthetical … and I do think a draw on Weds will still be enough - a defeat and it’ll be 50/50.
A cup win against them is the stuff of my childhood dreams ;-)
FA Cup Final Allocation is notoriously stingy for the Teams involved -so we are talking 22,000 or soYou reckon? Must be a 30k allocation. So for about 36000 season ticket holders that's 5 out of 6 season ticket holders would need to go.
