Play off final.
Can anyone tell me how come there are a shed-load of empty seats at the Play Off Final?
I thought that both clubs complained that they hadn't satisfied demand?
What's going on?

Ahh, interesting. Two points, first off - Isn't there a facility in place to re-distribute unwanted places and subsequently reimburse the debenture holders? Secondly, Is there only me that considers this to be perhaps the most important, and, accordingly, the most alluring final of the season? For me, as a neutral, it's usurped the FA Cup Final completely.chris wrote:Unused 'Wembley season tickets' I think.

Then you've been far too busy rustling up a Lardy Lard - Double Cheese with large order Lard , or whatever, whenever this guy's been busy getting stuck into our lot?Mich Caine wrote:I thought Gera looked absolutely crap today.

I'm surprised at you for being so naive, Bruce. The overwhelming majority of the 'club Wembley' members are unlikely to be fans of any description. After the cup final, the empty spaces this afternoon have just underlined the fact that this stadium was always going to be one for the suits, rather than the fans.Bruce Rioja wrote:Ahh, interesting.

commentators mentioned empty seats, didn't they say something about segregation? weird. i would've loved to have gone, even to the League 2 one just to say i'd been to wembley
good game, much better than FA Cup final. Thought Koumas was best player on the pitch. wasn't a massive fan of him in the past but he looks much stronger and quicker and i reckon someone'll snap him up - could even be that elusive speedy midfielder we need.
derby were lucky. they don't like they have an awful lot about them. the key to staying in the prem for me is scoring goals and i don't think that team has too many goals in them. then again, last season i said i thought watford would be the only ones to stay up

Hence my question, Le Snake, and perhaps a little less naive than you think . Business brains smart enough to work out the true value of utilising their corporate seats to maximum effect by impressing the relevant heads on cup final day/international game/ big gig day. Smart money would also be tapping into the PR value of giving those ultimately priceless, yet unwanted tickets back to the supporters on Play-Off final day, and furthermore, making something of a stink about it in the press, on a day which means everything to the true football supporter, man in the street, their very own customer, etc. etc. See?Le Snake wrote:I'm surprised at you for being so naive, Bruce.

No, I agree he had some fine games in the Premiership and stood out in a poor team, but if you had seen him play this season then maybe you would have seen this too?Bruce Rioja wrote:Then you've been far too busy rustling up a Lardy Lard - Double Cheese with large order Lard , or whatever, whenever this guy's been busy getting stuck into our lot?Mich Caine wrote:I thought Gera looked absolutely crap today.

If he cannot stand out in a championship team then why should he be good enough for us?
