Wembley Ticket Update Thread

[harry]

Yep, got mine today. Don't know why the actual ticket has to be so big..

 

[North London Bee]

Not arrived yet, ordered them last wednesday. Better come tomorrow.

 

[Robi Bee]

No. A signature is required. If you miss them your have to pick em up from the post office

Bo*****s. But thanks for letting me know. TIme to start re-arranging the week.

 

[nick logan]

Can someone confirm this? Me and the missus both out at work all day, kids in school, ie no-one in during the day. If its a signature needed and ends up going back to some friggin sorting office, Im going to start sweating.....

They will stick a card through your door and you could pick them up saturday morning ?

 

[devonbees]

Still a bit worried about this full-price/concessions business.............
7 in our party.....4 full price, 3 concessions....due to 2 travelling up from Devon on the day (1 a concession) who aren't sure on route/arrival time, we'll be posting them their tickets in advance and meeting up inside the ground.
What happens if we unwittingly post them 2 full price tickets leaving us with only 2 full price tickets for 3 adults??........Not gonna be happy if the turnstile light shows my ticket to be a kids one and I'm denied entry.........

Any thoughts??

Where in Devon r they traveling from ?

So it makes it harder to forge ??

I would strongly advise against saturday pick up, just in case they cannot locate the item. As it's bussiest day of the week for collections, most callers officies do not do any searches for misplaced items until monday. I know that because I work in RM callers office and although we find 99% of items right there and then, there are always few misplaced ones.

Best thing is to go and collect tickets ASAP, most callers officies are now open until 8pm at least one day a week (usually wednesday) and you can also order re-delivery online, if you know that someone willl be at home thu/fri/sat morning.

Anyway I hope you all get yr tickets and see you at Wembley.

Mine ordered on the phone first thing last Thursday; efficiently dealt with in terms of both the time to answer the phone and in taking the order.

Said they would be despatched recorded delivery Monday and duly arrived safely in Cornwall 0915 this morning; good, efficient service (just as it was for the JPT) and the Club have done good in my experience in outsourcing it to them.

Dont panic, the address/receipt which came with your tickets identifies which tickets are which.

You have a long drive !!

 

[Easter 1959]

You have a long drive !!

It is but it is going to be worth it; no question NewBrentford will just outplay them and win in a canter; first game of next Season at home to the Hoops and Clayton will make Bosingwa look even more stupid with his blinding pace.

Great view. Lets hope we all turn up its long over due. Can't wait for this & c the likes of QPR etc lose at GP. Well worth the drive from my neck of the woods in Devon.

COYRssssssss

 

[Worthing Red]

Missus missed the bloody postman

Mine too after me giving her strict instructions not too move away from behind the front door until Posite had knocked. Bitch claimed she was in the shower.

 

[Brentford St George]

Anyone else had tickets through today for Brentford v Swindon at Wembley

 

[devonbees]

Everyone that's had there tickets in the post today has got Brentford / Swindon on them as they wore printed before the winner was known.

 

[Travel Tavern Bee]

Busy with the milkman

Hope so its a Milkwoman round my way.........

Got mine. My bitch signed for them (bless) :banana:

It doesn't say Brentford v Swindon... It states Brentford/Swindon as obviously we were given that end before the winners were determined. Evidently Wembley Stadium were prepared and took the tickets to the 2nd legs and the winners took them home with them to sell the very next day. I can imagine if they were not prepared we would have had to wait 3-4 days for them to print off 30k tickets with just Brentford on it.

Good.I will ree-assure the Man Utd fan in the office who has jumped on the promotion bandwagon and purchased tickets

Big game - big ticket. Obvious :shrug:

 

[Wayneybee67]

Apparently there are all kinds of engineering works going on in and around London on Sunday.

 

[TW3Bee]

So did I ...have to be signed for so have to collect from the Post Office, but have to allow 4 hours.

It's normally, or it used to be, 24 hours.

Mine was 3 hours for my parcel I collected yesterday.

 

[snowybee]

My tickets have arrived.....a signature was required but my postman decided to just posted them through my letterbox but that is typical of him!

 

[Bigbee]

WHY ?

[GuyBee]

According to the email I just received from BFC, looks like we have sold 20,000. I think thats fine all things considered

 

[westwing]

That's up to today.
Still a few days to go and I bet you can pay on the day.
Will be loads of Brentford in the hospitality areas as well.

 

[Babbelfish]

Same here. I can't see us getting much more than 20k though given that after noon tomorrow it will be personal callers only. Perhaps we'll get up to 21,000. From memory that's about the same as we got for the Crewe PO final.

Better than the poor 10,000 vs Stoke

Ok now....we have the tickets! :bound:

 

[joet]

Mine was 3 hours for my parcel I collected yesterday.

the card gets filled out by the postman/woman, the amount of time written on the back is dependent on whether the aformentioned delivery person will get back to the sorting office prior to the aformentioned sorting office closing for the day.

if it says 24 hrs it actually means 'tomorrow', anytime, so get down as soon as they open.

if the postperson has delivered them without getting a signature it is for either of these reasons: they have signed for it for you because they are kind (happens a lot in rural areas), or when sorting the mail at 6am they are still drunk and haven't noticed so rammed it in with all the other mail.

either way, the world won't end, be happy.

any other questions please ask away,

yours,

a postman, somerset.

ps - i never do anything wrong, i get signatures for everything, etc, etc (in case postman KEN is reading)

Sounds like my postman lol...
By all accounts, I've had it in the past where they've just left the parcel outside my front door - and I live in a block of flats with 36 other flats in the building.... not very secure to be honest and the item needed signing for.
But on the flip side, other items such as letters which can be delivered, he has told me he has signed on my behalf as it saves me going to office to collect myself and it is just as easy to post it.

 

[BRbee]

Postman attempted to deliver mine today (back of lower tier) but since I was not at home and a signature is required I have had to visit the sorting office to collect. Long, long wait.
Leaving collection until Saturday may be a bit risky.

 

[BeeHomeSoon]

WHY ?

http://www.brentfordfc.co.uk/news/article/play-off-final-sales-end-821414.aspx

I presume they have to be sent back to allow for a Pay on the Day allocation?

 

[ChrisSmith1992]

Slightly disappointed we only sold 20,000 when Wembley is on our doorstep and it's arguably the biggest game in the last 20 years.

 

[badgerbee]

Where in Devon r they traveling from ?

Barnstaple........actually Bratton Fleming......

 

[Balders Bee]

Agreed but that's just the realities of the size of our extended fanbase twinned with the financial realities and ticket prices i'm afraid.

 

[Voice from the Braemar]

WHY ?

http://www.brentfordfc.co.uk/news/article/play-off-final-sales-end-821414.aspx

thought the same thing.....are we mental or something???....some people wont decide till saturday if they are going or not, surely it makes sense to keep open as long as possible ???? beggars belief !!

 

[Voice from the Braemar]

will be more than that there.........the middle tier has 15k season ticket holders who either go to the games or sell on to other parties,,,,id wager there will be a lot of brentford in these seats as well,,,,,we'll prob sell about 22k but there will be at least 3 or 4 k in those hospitality seats, nailed on

wont be less than 25k bees in the crowd, so dont fret.............we;re a little club after all lol

 

[hanworthbee]

I'm on holiday and don't get back till Friday late...hope the post office keep my ticket

 

[staines_bee]

Two more purchased today. Hopefully we'll have all of the lower tier filled.

Does seem odd to stop selling tickets so early. All true fans will have had plenty of time to get tickets by then, but I know a group of four who can only come depending on something else, and won't know until Friday. I'm sure as more and more press articles start being published, others will start to think about coming along too. Not the end of the world, but a shame nonetheless.

Furze Park Road?

Would imagine there will be a pay on the day gate?

Stowford.......wherever that is........

Makes the 27k for the JPT look incredible.

I guess a lot of neutrals had never been to New Wembley before.
