I’ll assume that the thinking may well be along the lines of louder and more noise being created by standing supporters than those in seats, not that they aren’t allowed to sing, chant, cheer etc whilst seated.

After talks between Wembley Stadium and the Club, we’ve now had it confirmed that the safe-standing sections of our allocated area – Blocks 133 & 134 – can be designated to those wanting to watch the game with a bit more noise.

These two blocks can house up to 1870 supporters, with a further 148 tickets in safe standing located towards the rear of Block 135, giving us the perfect opportunity to bring our famous East Bank atmosphere to the home of British football.

I could have sworn that I’d posted a link to that information at the top of this page.

According to my older cousin who is an Oxford United fan and was at Wembley last year for the league 1 play off final. You will not be let in if you have any form of rucksack with you, and instead will have to leave it at a bag drop off point, for which you will be charged £10.
Thanks for that,
I think it’s the usual anything over A4 size backpack that won’t be allowed in. Standard at mass spectator events since the Manchester bombings.
Thanks. So I presume no Water bottles?

That’s where I’ll be sitting and cheering on the mighty Shots (as an Oldham fan I thought I should do the decent thing and sit in the “neutral section” above you and leave all available tickets for Shots fans in your section.

I’m absolutely chuffed for you making it to Wembley, going to be a fantastic day for you all and richly deserved.

I’m hoping we’ll be there for the Playoff final but that will take a minor miracle the way we’re currently playing!
I might do the same

I don't mean the t-shirts but the actual club kit with the date, opponent and occasion under the club logo. Perhaps that'll happen once the home and away team are confirmed and we know what colours both sides will be wearing? I know we did so for the 2004 Nationwide Conference Play-Off Final.
I heard a rumour they are on the way but all have number 6, Widdrington on them 😉

As a warning for everyone tomorrow, the Wembley website is pretty rubbish for England ticket sales. Even if there's only a few thousand trying to get tickets tomorrow, it wouldn't surprise me if there were queues to get in.

I cannot understand why any Shots fans would want to be in the neutral section rather than with their fellow Shots supporters, even if the view is a bit better. I'd massively regret missing being amongst our own. Let's fill our section. Those wanting to stand go in those sections behind the goal, those looking to sit go on the side.

This might already be common knowledge but I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere...

Graeme Lee, the Spennymoor manager, is a former team-mate of Tommy's and both won promotion with Hartlepool in 2003.

Something to ponder while waiting in the Wembley queue...
