I've got a ticket for next Saturday (Block 137) - paid for the coach and everything.
I'm going with my eldest lad - season ticket in Colin Bell 328.
My youngest is a steward in East stand (so not even got a Blue card) and never been to Wembley.
Do I promise him have my seat seeing as he's never been and try to pull another out of the bag for me or keep mine for myself and let him have the other if I manage to wangle one?
I've been a few times (including '76, '81 and '85 at the old Wembley) so it won't be anything new for me but it's not something you get tired of.
Of course if anybody out there's got a spare........

Stewards aren't on the club payroll anymore though are they? Outsourced by Showsec or whatever their called.
I'm not sure many will actually go to the Wigan game will they?! Be like a flashback to the Pearce era.

Well, I would have thought that whoever they are, they would have had contacts with the Club.
PPLF...we might be in the next seat...at the WHU game out of 47K fans, I found myself sat next to my other half's boss, who I had never met

The stewards do get a small number of tickets which are allocated by way of a draw/raffle type thing. He didn't got one. I don't know if they'll get any out of the extra allocation - probably find out on Tuesday.

Give him your ticket, but travel down with him have a few beers before with him and then meet up with him after

Not to sound arrogant, but I think Wembley will be a regular host for us in the next few years, so the young tyke should be okay for next time
