I'm sat in the online queue to apply for a ticket. It hasn't moved for about 20 minutes now. Despite the fact that I can apply any time between now and 5pm tomorrow, I'm still sat watching the bar not move and swearing to myself. What's wrong with me?

after 2 hours the bar reached the end and then told me the site was down due to essential maintenance and would be for several hours!!

Ive never brought a ticket from a tout in my life but thinking thats the only way I will get a ticket as my loyalty points are under 100. Roughly what sort of price will I expect to pay from a tout??

For the first time in years I reckon I might be ok without the use of a tout or my connections @ the club ;)

I haven't reached such heady heights as the front of the queue yet - I'd say I'm now about 60 per cent of the way there after nearly two hours. I'll let you know the outcome when I do get there...

221 here. Relatively confident, but by no means relaxed. Will be going on my own if I do make it, as my friend I travel down from Bristol with started a new membership this year after forgetting to renew and has about 10 points.

Ha ha, yeah I'll be wearing the white carnation stood outside Wembley Park tube :p

It will be a lovely day.

Last semi final I had to share it with Sandra Redknapp in the VIP box next to the royal box. A lot to live up to son

Right, I'm in after two and a half hours. I click the club crest as instructed, select the number of seats I want - one - but get a message saying 'Sorry the number of seats selected is not available in this area'. Any idea what the cock n balls is going on?!

How are you supposed to put a season ticket and a member together, if the applications don't overlap?

More dogshit.

Ooh. It has sorted itself out after about 10 refreshes and retries. I have now successfully applied for a ticket and it only took two two hours, 45 minutes.
On the confirmation it lists the kick-off as Sunday, April 15 at 3pm, incidentally.

This is not me touting, admitting to knowing a tout, if I did I have not spoken to a tout to find out the prices and I am in no way advocating using a tout.

I'd imagine you'll be looking at £180-£200.

212 points - think I will be borderline.

Good job I came into this thread - for some reason I thought the application period for Bronze/Lilywhites was Monday and Tuesday. I'm an idiot.

I'm in the same boat. Maybe, if I get a ticket, I'll set up a thread in the run up for all us fans who would be going by ourselves to arrange meet ups and what have you.

Or.... someone else could do it as I'm lazy.

Good luck with that.....

League cup final v Chelsea couldn't be bought for 800. I know I tried.

FA cup final, will be a bag

FA cup Semi, I reckon at least 400.

Spurs have a lot of freighted fans.

Before I got the Box versus portsmouth I bought a club wembley ticket for £450. I then sold it within 15 minutes of advertising for £450

Thats the marker for me
