Questions for those in the know - how much do they tend to charge for the food in the stadium itself? I know the jokes about "have to remortgage" etc, but how expensive are we actually talking?

And related - will I be prevented from bringing in my own food and drink?
You're not allowed to take food and drink in, but some manage to.

Food and drink will cost you anywhere between £10 and £25 per person, depending what you have. If you pick the absolute cheapest you might get it down to £7-8 (Water and a pie sort of thing). A pint will cost you nearly a fiver.

Last time I was there I bought myself and a mate burger, chips and a coke (each) and it was over £20. Also wasn't much to write home about.
Ta! My mates will be buying their own then! :grin:

Defo won't be able to take your own drink in, suspect food too. Think they're even funny on water.

Wembley is not expensive beyond being in that London. So similar to Arsenal or Chelsea. I think about £6 a pint and a tenner up for food which is presented as fancy but isn't really.

Don't know much about the pub sitch. Only times I've been before were to the green man but Plymouth have got that.

I have 2 tickets described as "Wembley Print at Home & Digital Delivery"
I was expecting an email to download but have not received anything to print from Ticketmaster
When are the actual tickets delivered?

Don’t worry BW, tickets will be emailed out at a later date, no later than 5 days before the game.

Fantastic achievement to sell over 25k before general sale!

Looking at the price of the tickets in the top tier, it’s not out of the question that we’d sell over 32k when you look at how long is left and how many people on social media are still talking about waiting for gen. Sale so they can sit with friends and family

We have 40,000 plus members eligible to buy tickets. How many people who haven’t even bothered to sign up for free membership want to go? I don’t know but I can’t imagine by now we haven’t sold pretty much what we will sell. Sure a few will wait for sitting together, but can’t be many surely?

So, are "official club members" just anybody who has had to sign up to the mandatory membership scheme, in order to buy tickets?

If so, surely you need to be a 'member' to buy them on general sale? In which case, you're probably right

Well they suspended membership after the semi final, so anyone who hadn’t got a membership couldn’t get one. So I’m sure there will be a few.

But yes if you’d signed up before that to buy tickets for anything you had a membership (or most did).

But you can't by tickets without being a member, so they won't be on General Sale... They'll still only ever be available to Members.

Yeah but non-members I assume will at general sale point be able to sign up as members.

People need to be aware of the bag policy too. Nothing larger than A4 size.

Plymouth are apparently on 32k. Gonna be one of the highest attended trophy finals in the competition's history. Which is nice.
