    Good luck Fonzy. It's going to be tough going. Back in the time of the dinosaurs I got tickets for Palace v United replay by going to Wembley ticket office in person. (Took my Mum and my mate)

    You are London based so it may be worth calling or popping over to Wembley.

    Good idea posting here, so that any other fans with tickets to get rid of or wanting tickets can put a note in the same place.

    I need two tickets also but I'm not holding out much hope. Return flights are only £40 at the minute but it would royally suck being outside the stadium and not able to get in. Tried that before for Arsenal away (which we ended up getting tanked in anyway). I should just support Glentoran and I could walk to every home game lol

    Saints winning means I've got the weekend off work (Saints v Arsenal now moved to a later date). But I'm buggered as my only purchase history this season is West Ham away and Hapoel Be'er Sheva at home.

    Any help anyone could offer would be great but it's going to be an absolute scrum for tickets, I know. <laugh>

    It's usually 25k ish for the Fa Cup and more for the League Cup. I'd guess at 30-32k each team

    Assume it'll be season ticket holders who have attended x away games first? Don't see how else they can tier it...

    Seeing as there will be more tickets than season tickets, they will open to season ticket holders followed by members. It won't make it to general sale.

    Having been to 3 league cup games (1 away) and have a membership I would be very unhappy if I couldn't get a ticket. I would like to think I wouldn't have a problem as long as I was quick when I am eligible to buy a ticket.

    Definitely won't make general sale. Didn't get membership thus year as we had a child so knew wouldn't make many games. Will be scramble for the tickets jealous of the ones who get one (unless some lovely person can help )

    I think they'll be enough tickets so that every ST holder has a ticket if they want it.

    I'm hoping after ST holders they go to anyone who's been to an EFL game this season. Fingers crossed.

    I'm not a member though :(

    Manchester City got 31.5k last season

    http://www.manchestereveningnews.co...revealed-manchester-citys-league-cup-10801282

    Prices from £40 adult.

    So a third of the tickets to neutrals. If you're a non season ticket holder/member then you should consider looking into how you can get neutral zone tickets.
    Especially if we end up playing united as that will make the scramble worse.

    Can't memberships still be bought? So would they go to members since a certain date (i.e. yesterday). Just guessing.

    Haven't been to a single game this year due to other commitments, so absolutely no chance for me of getting one through Saints (wouldn't actually feel right if I did so not even going to bother). But a mate of mine has 2 seats in club Wembley through his work so owing to the fact that I know no other Saints fans there is a chance one of them might be spare. I'll post on here if it is if anyone wants to rave it up in corporate when Martina scores in the last minute to win the game

    I thought the whole point of a membership was that it guaranteed you a ticket for home games, That being if we get 30k tickets then every member should be assured of getting a ticket.
