Yup

I know a few people who are single STH's and managed to get an extra ticket yesterday....i think if the club advertised the +1 then it would be abused but if you ask and explain your situation then they are pretty cool about it

Greatwesternline Having seen how many people were able to queue for hours on end on a Thursday it would seem that the song "We pay your benefits" could equally be directed at our own fan base.

How do so many people not need to go to work?


Or how many people have bosses who are flexible? For the Swansea game the day the tickets went on sale I was due to work, my boss didn't give the day off but he said get your tickets then come to work.

paultheroyal Block 112 - Row 21 - 8 tickets secured and bizarrely allowed 2 extra tickets who were not season ticket holders on request so fair play to RFC.

They have played a blinder with this and communication has been excellent.


Did they give a reason why you got member tickets?


Told them the dilemma, no qualms in giving 2 more.

What was the dilemma? :twisted:

Just had to go pick something up from the ticket office, no queues at all, phones not ringing, staffbwith nothing to do, day stewards enjoying the sun. Seems almost all went yesterday, slight error on days, but no loss for fans.

Club says they sold 8500 yesterday....im guessing the one's who didn't buy yesterday are waiting for members to come into play. Tomorrow will be busy

Not sure about that. How many fans with over 1500 points aren't season ticket holders? Can't be many.

I would say those who didn't bother to renew their ticket this season....what is 1500pts in terms of seasons with a ST?

Croydon Royal 3x Block 113 booked. Incredibly easy to do this evening online. Can't believe I'm saying it, but very impressed by how the club have handled it all so far. And baffled by those who went down there to queue for hours today. Each to their own, I guess.

One quick question (apologies if it's already been mentioned, but hard to keep up with all the threads), but my tickets say 'blue upper 113' on them - are they splitting the block into lower and upper, or is it just something written on everyones tickets? There sort of looks like it's been split on the Reading Seating Guide page, but not on any other Wembley Seating Charts. Would be quite happy if that's the case - the further up on the lower tier the better in my opinion - but imagine it's just wishful thinking at the moment!


It appears that tickets sold at the ticket office in person were for the front rows, but not sure how many rows. Tickets sold on line are for the back rows. Not sure if its an equal split but could be upper is above the walkway and lower is obviously below.


Well the old boy who was first out of the ticket office got row 2 in block 103. I know someone who queued from around 8am (queued for over 2.5 hours :lol: ) - and got row 14 in block 104. I got two on-line yesterday morning by around 10:20am and was given tickets in 'red upper' in block 104 - so I assume those two tickets will be in the smaller section of seats at the back of block 104 near the entrance to the concourse. In my mind, having been to Wembley a few times, I got the better seats doing it on-line.

WTF ?!? The club must have been giving points away during the Burns / Pardew era.

Why you think that?

This is what is on the website:

'To help you in your decision-making process, the club are confident that we have enough tickets for all Season Ticket holders and all Member Card holders with 300+ Royalty Points.

I'm one of those holding back waiting for my brother to come into play, sounds like i should just go down this evening and chance it.

Were the six as a group or individually TBM?
