Every Tyneside and Northumberland team that has played a cup final at the new Wembley, has won. Without looking into it, that sounds very questionable… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Consett lost the Vase final there. But I guess they’ll not be classed as “Tyneside and Northumberland”. Think West Auckland did too, but same probably applies. Gateshead lost the playoff final too didn’t they (think that was new Wembley?). But that’s probably not a “cup final”. So, you can probably argue your stat is correct, although there’s a load of caveats. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how they’ll be able to do that but there’s always a risk. The only way to guarantee a ticket is to take out the 3 year club Wembley membership which will set you back about £7.5k in total. Gets you all england games, Fa Cup semis and final, carabao cup final and charity shield. You can sell any tickets you can’t use on their portal but it’s obviously a risk you may be stuck with tickets you don’t want. What an absolute disgrace.

As it happens, Consett lost it to Hebburn, and West Auckland lost it twice, one of them being Dunston. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully there’s some way to recoup their outlay. However, this kind of thing has to be done to stamp out touting. We’re all seeing these sites putting tickets up for £2k+, thinking ‘that’s a disgrace’, but if no-one does anything it’s never going to change. How these sites are allowed to operate in the first place when it’s supposed to be illegal to resell a football ticket above FV, is another question entirely.

Just so I’m understanding this as a bit of a contradiction… You could buy a one off ticket without a membership that’s being resold via an official Wembley resale site but not an unofficial resale site?

Should be applauded for cancelling the seats. I hate it with music gigs so it be hypocritical of me to justify it with football tickets. If Club Wembley members want to resell individual tickets they’ve been given a platform to do so. Stops people from buying memberships and simply turning them into cash cows. Still have my doubts they would actually cancel them mind. As they could then revoke the membership from the seller you’d think by tracking the information.

Think on the link someone shared few pages back about official resellers P1 travel is one of them and they're charging £2,014 for ticket + night hotel so that's circa 6x markup on face value for the ticket, seems very out of line they're "officially" allowed to do that.

South-Cheshire-Toon Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 As much as my heart is hoping for a win, my head is saying we'll lose, and it will either a drubbing 4-0 or a close defeat 1-0. I also hoping that my head is wrong. But I wish all that go have a great time of things. I'm actually in London the day before so will keep an eye out for any fans.
