Wembley tickets

This is the most aggravating point of the whole thing. ****ing nanny state we've been obsessed with 'safety' ever since the pandemic, it's as if fans aren't adults who can make their own decisions and make their own way there FFS
Trouble is it is not just the H&S it is the people that will sue for anything including poking their noses into other issues.

We inherited the ambulance chasing culture from the USA (in addition to obesity, modified foods etc) and it can’t be reversed.

So to some extent I can understand that Wembley have their own interests to protect and their lawyers are deeply involved (same for TfL, mayoral office and the Met.)

However the encouraging news (and on a Sunday of a bank holiday weekend) suggests to me this is the first of 2 or 3 steps to ensure that everyone who wants to go gets to go.
 
They will definitely release more, with the extra services and the pressure both clubs are putting on no reason not to, they were being tight with the extra 2k. Will keep an eye out if any pop up out of the blue for those who have missed out, we'll get you sorted
 
I really , hope everyone who wants a ticket gets one. Absolute disgrace by NL. I have been doing some stuff for the club so Tom has very kindly offered me and my son tickets, very much appreciated. However, I have been DM'd by three different supporters offering me tickets. I am completely blown away with that. What a community. What a family. What a club.

I think there's a bit more to it than that. Let's be honest Wembley can be a nightmare to get to and from and without Wembley Park I think the local council just doesn't want 50k+ football fans loitering and getting frustrated for two hours after the game.

I blame the National League for putting us in this mess and I'm sure there would have been reluctance to open the top tier anyway because of costs but I'd imagine Brent council are the biggest barrier to overcome.
