It will sell out but slowly. Fans from overseas will make a trip. Families who can't afford Final tickets, etc
Did I?..I literally got in bought my tickets and then gave a count and also a couple of follow upsI would've said that Flapjack was nailed on for counter of the season before he went MIA for the Carabao Final

We sold 28,000 for Forest on a Sunday at 4.30pm. Demand will be much higher this year. I would think at least 32,000.Would all the seat counters please make their predictions be known before the count begins.
Sort the wheat from the chaff, if you will. There have been some very accurate and some wildly inaccurate predictions in years gone by.
Didsbury Dave has gone early with a rather conservative estimate of 30,000.
Any other takers?
Plus there’s a lot of positivity about our team at the moment. It’s still a work in progress and I think we may just be too far back to win the league, but it feels like things are really coming together, what with that fantastic 2nd half display against Arsenal in the League Cup Final and the demolition of Liverpool last week.It’s a sell out for me, due to the fact it’s a Saturday families will go as they are not at school next day and the prices are reasonable for the Etihad South.
It turned out he isn’t a season ticket holder so can’t count most key games because he can’t access the planner. Giving it to Flapjack would be like giving Player of the Season to Max Alleyne.I would've said that Flapjack was nailed on for counter of the season before he went MIA for the Carabao Final
And the 10 men against Real Madrid before that.Plus there’s a lot of positivity about our team at the moment.

It's certainly a tough one to predict, I think it will be more than last season, but with it being Southampton and it being less glamorous it doesn't appeal to the casual London/Southern area members as much, compared to say Chelsea but having said that I also think if we beat Chelsea and Arsenal then the good feeling of being in the title race will see better sales... so I reckon 30,000 if we don't win and a sellout if we dowhere will you be positioning yourself for this epic count, will this be as difficult as the enigma code to crack

Ah apologies, I didn't realise you only became eligible in the final window. Should definitely have more of a role to play this timeDid I?..I literally got in bought my tickets and then gave a count and also a couple of follow ups
I assume the carabou cup extras were taken up by those who they were offered to originally. That happened in some of our higher demand finals in the past. I also agree with you that some of these will added to the allocation because demand will be less than the final and there will be less time for those to be taken up.@Didsbury Dave
So the allocation is listed at 33,500, however are we going to work on the basis that this will likely end up being closer to 36,000. We don't want it to be a shock when receive more to sell.
Asking because it was quite a surprise to me that we didn't recieve extras for the EFL Cup final.
Certainly I know some who missed the LC Final but are doing this one.Today’s collapse by Arsenal will also give a boost. The treble is on.i get the feeling people are bang up for this, the feel good factor is back, 1000's couldn't get league cup final tickets, they will want one.
A big win tomorrow could do wonders for salesi get the feeling people are bang up for this, the feel good factor is back, 1000's couldn't get league cup final tickets, they will want one.
