Wembley tickets

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.
I agree, add Brent Council into the mix, but I think local pubs and shopkeepers wouldn’t. Old Trafford used to be able to do it for cup semis though. (Less of an issue for league and other cup games).

I still think we will get there, but unnecessarily torturously! Additional magic worked behind the scenes and I am sure at OAFC too when both clubs have better things to focus on.
 
Latest Promotion Final Ticket Update:

We have now received confirmation from Wembley Stadium that the enhancements to the rail services into Wembley Central and Wembley Stadium will enable the capacity for our promotion final to be increased to 48,000.

That will increase our allocation to 21,500 plus tickets sold with coach packages. Please note these additional numbers need to be released in two tranches (due to some coding requirements that Wembley need to undertake).

The first tranche has been released already, the second tranche will be release tomorrow - we will give some notice in relation to that.

At the time of writing this statement we have about 5,000 tickets to sell (over two tranches), yet we have 600 supporters queuing in the car park and 8,000 queuing online. We are confident we could sell in excess of 35,000, so whilst we are pleased with the progress that has been made, we are still pushing all stakeholders to think creatively and to find solutions that can safely increase the capacity further.
Come on to X light up social media - I’ve been posting but needs us all on the case
 
It’s Twitter address that are needed- then it’s very visible gets shared and multiplied and provides maximum pressure- email are fine but only seen by the recipient and easy to ignore.

Here’s a starter list. We need to be better organised at putting pressure on to get more tickets for our fans than Discussing at the club and each other. Come on guys get Tweeting
Im round Mother in laws today (well it is Mothers Day) and no WiFi. I’ve already been on my phone for the best part of 2 hours but have just given NL (your primary target above) a bollicking. I will do more back home later this afternoon. However if individual twitter handles are known for those in responsible positions within NL then I’m happy to fire off to them too, as I suspect the Admin person will just press delete.
