Leicester (N) - Community Shield | Pre-Match Thread

Wonder what's causing the delay in providing ticket information? The game is just over 2 weeks away. I can only assume that Wembley/The FA may be having a rethink re security arrangements after the chaos of the Euros final.

The decision on supporters being allowed and how many is not the FAs to make, Brent Council have the final say on what they will allow in and they don't seem in a rush to decide.

What's with the trains I can't book tickets from Warrington there and back Saturday to Sunday and some of the costs are ridiculous, this will stop us going anyone have prices from Manchester, I have hotel booked

Got it for £62.37 with a rail card Saturday morning Sunday afternoon return

Avanti are going to have a lot of empty trains. Two seasons ago you could travel Manchester to London for around £30 return and most of the trains were half empty even then. Still £100+ for adult return will soon get their coffers up.

Find it appalling that with just over two weeks to the game, no ticket details are yet available

It's going to take one hell of an effort to sell 90,000 tickets in 11 days if they do decide to allow 100% capacity

If they are still deciding it it's 75% or 100% capacity, I don't understand why they didn't put at least 50% of the tickets on sale already to start shifting them.

Sounds like kick-off could be changed to 17.15

 

[didsburyblu]

Is there a need for 100% attendance. Does the charity shield ever sell out? I'm not aware it does very often and with covid, late notice, no cheap train tickets can't see this being anywhere near a sell out so seems odd they're delaying things to seemingly make a decision that will probably be pointless anyway

Is there any truth in the rumour that we will be fielding a 'mixed' team selected from the Academy and the ladies squads?

No chance 3/4 of the ladies are in Tokyo...happy to clarify.

I’d be surprised if it’s half that unless they give tickets to locals as part of a test or something.

Which makes them taking until Monday to decide on 75% or 100% capacity a complete farce. Won't be full regardless of what they decide leaving it that late

Not sure I feel comfortable going to a fully sold out wembley right now tbh. Be interesting to see the take up from us
