May 8, 20242 yr Few folks have pointed it out how many we will be taking, will be interesting to see. The support over the past year especially has been monumental and has had a much higher ceiling than more recent years. We took 35,000+ last year, however we had a full month to get tickets, this time it's just a week and a half. Personally feel we won't hit the same as last year but I'm sure we will still be backed by a big following. Let's see what happens! Edited May 8, 20242 yr by Lostock Whites
May 8, 20242 yr We had under 25k there last night, be surprised if we get many more for final, but I was surprised by numbers we took last year.
May 8, 20242 yr 25k, a crowd that all but i club in Div 1 can only dream about, including the champions.
May 8, 20242 yr We’ve been in 4 playoff finals, won 2, lost 2. I went to the two we lost and didn’t go to the two we won. I’m going to this one. 🙏

May 8, 20242 yr 25,000 on still a Tuesday night, (I wasn't there as I was away) plus we know all the day trippers that will turn up for weekend Wembley trip. 30,000+ minimum I reckon

Would love same seats in the corner of the lower tier

May 8, 20242 yr Looking like a £10 increase per ticket / category on last season. We were in Cat 5 last year, just inside the corner the sun was blazing on, a few rows before the cat 4 seats. Were £40 last season and will be £50 this time I believe Dear day out for 2 adults and 2 kids with Shamrock coaches on top of that, but couldn't think of a better way to spend my readies

May 8, 20242 yr I've never seen us win at Wembley! My only play off win was at Cardiff in 2001. In 95 I was on a school trip to Spain so missed it. Last year I was in the middle of moving house so couldn't go to the pizza final even though I had free tickets - I gave them to my cousin. Hoping to break my Wembley duck this time!

May 8, 20242 yr Pretty sure we were in 118 for the pizza final, category 4 and brilliant tickets. Will probably aim for the same again
May 8, 20242 yr Looking at 27k imo turn around time is shite and speaking to my mate who runs pub coaches getting hold of them is hard it goes in line with previous play off final turnouts

Fair point, I could not do last night or the final , but our group last night was 5 and there are 6 with train tickets booked for final. Just think cost will be an issue, £50 for a coach and tickets for a family of four is going to be £300 plus.

Would love same seats in the corner of the lower tier Same here Watford and Preston Missed Reading as was at uni at the time and had an exam the morning after Thought if I went I'd get pissed whatever the result and that wouldn't be good prep for the exam Got pissed watching it anyway and caused a bit of a scene in a pub in Leicester

But if you fancy it, you can surely sort travel out in a day? I suppose the point is that for the 25k that will go regardless, 10 days or a month doesn’t make any difference, but for the 5-6k who aren’t as guaranteed, it might make a difference and they just won’t get round to it. We only had 1 there last night for various reasons but already have 4 train tickets booked. My guess would be 29k, with the difference to the pizza final being a combination of extra cost, less time and loss of novelty factor impacting those floating fans.
May 8, 20242 yr Digs booked after away leg for the Saturday night. Steady trip down early Saturday should be supping by 11:00 👍
