is it possible the greyed out sections have been allocated to supporters clubs, and that is why the criteria is much slower than it needs to be, or will tomorrow be carnage

I wouldn't have thought so, but you never know. There were plenty of greyed out blocks in the sections that are open that I'd assume were for supporters clubs.

I don't think much will happen at 11am, but I think the 3pm window could be a bloodbath.

No. They always leave them until sales start moving.

Tomorrow will be interesting. Unless our much maligned members kick in...it could be serious flapping time.
 
Sales for this game have vindicated the stance of the club with regard to attracting new support, the take up from season ticket holders must be the lowest % of any club that has been to Wembley ever

If it is 25K I agree that will be a dreadful effort.

All this recent laudable action about being priced out etc....definitely hides some shite support with people making up reasons for themselves for why they just can't be arsed anymore.
Just admit it FFS

Obv there's loads who can't afford it & no one is on about those (money and time off work), but a 25K turnout......

So around 15,000 seats have gone to season tickets holders that can only buy 1 ticket ?

Before u slag our supporters as being the ‘ worst ever’ I would wait to see what it is like when season tickets holders holders can buy up to 4 tickets ( which will happen) maybe people are waiting for that window so they can sit together?

Or just supporters who can’t afford Aston Villa at home on the Tuesday at £71 for adults and £43 for children, and a trip to Wembley 5 days later.
Or people who can’t afford Wembley after paying their season ticket money today or on the 31st (City take £91.50 off me for my ST on the 15th of each month, for many people that wouldn’t leave them with enough money leftover for a trip to Wembley).
Or many could just be waiting until payday today (I got paid today).
Or those who get paid today can’t afford Wembley twice in the same pay month (the semi and the final are 3 weeks apart, when in the previous two years they were 5 weeks and 6 weeks apart respectively) so have prioritised the final if we get there.
Or do not agree with semis being at Wembley and want to keep the final special if we get there (many stick to their principles about this, I don’t disagree with them either).
Or it’s a symptom of the club pricing fans out over the years who would traditionally have been Wembley attendees a decade ago (we took about 48,000 against Wigan for the 2013 final) and these people have got used to not going to City games anymore.
Or it’s a symptom of the club pricing fans out over the years who do go to Wembley but don’t have season tickets anymore so have to wait until their window opens.
Or they have something else to pay for (I for example have a £318 Buildings Insurance and Terrorism Protection Insurance bill to pay for my flat by the end of April which could throw other people out of being able to afford to go to Wembley as they wouldn’t have enough money leftover).
Or some people don’t have a credit card (which is how many football fans pay for tickets, they can’t actually afford them, they get into debt to go).
Or with the KO being 4.30pm on a Sunday people aren’t going with their young kids because of how late people will get home or some older kids won’t want to get home late because they have a GCSE, A-level or university exam on the Monday, as it’s exam time of year in education (another reason why it shouldn’t be at Wembley, especially not at 4.30pm, for a Northern team).
Or as many reasons again that someone else could come up with.

Just because me and you can and do go to semifinals doesn’t mean everyone else is in a position to.

37000 season ticket holders and only about 1 in 6 as bothered and tickets can be got for 30 quid, that's a poor effort no matter how we dress it up, let's hope things pick up

37000 season ticket holders, 140000 members, 400 supporters clubs, some of the excuses on social media are laughable, I don't like the stadium and shite like that. When we played Utd in 2011 none of these excuses were there, and it sold out to season ticket holders on a Sunday,. I always back supporters over cost, but there are loads of 30 quid tickets left, easier just to say I cannot be arsed
 
Correct me if I’m wrong but it’s allowing me to use an adult who is on my friends and family buy one as an under 18… it says pull through.

Will this be okay?

I’ve done this loads of times, just make sure you change the email for the mobile ticket when purchasing so it goes to you direct.

It’s 100% this, lots just can’t be bothered but will be there for the final….im one actually, first semi final I’ll miss. Can’t quite work out why I feel like this either as usually buzzing for any game. E.g Everton Saturday I’m counting down the days as can’t wait.
 
25k will be a poor effort, but I very much doubt it will be that low. It's 12 days until the game.
I usually defend playing semis at Wembley as we get far more tickets than if the game was played elsewhere (other than the swamp and I hate the idea of the FA enriching that mob), but the 4-30 KO is a joke.
I'd be happy with 20k tickets at Villa or even 15k at Stoke, but would those venues attract people who rarely go to away games?
I've got a cheap FOC ticket on the top tier, but shouting about £30 tickets is irrelevant when there's a 400 mile round trip with fuel and refreshments to pay for. - And hopefully another a few weeks later.
