so looks like im going to have to buy from a tout for this one.

what price do people think they'll be looking for on average?

also where would be the best place to go looking for one-im presuming around wembley a few hours before kick off.-its a bit of a catch 22 situation though cause if i cant get a ticket then im stuck in a pub around wembley watching the game,would prefer to watch it somewhere around the Blackstock road if i cant get a ticket.

Any ideas??....cheers!

Think were going for £54 tickets. Would rather lower but not paying that kind of price

bet you cant stand anywhere!!!!
I know what you are saying. I can't believe they have set those kind of prices for a Carling Cup final. Massive rip off. Don't the clubs have any say in this?
I doubt Arsenal are in a position to talk about ripping off fans.

I think most people will go with the £54 tickets
I thought they were shit seats. View was okay but upper tier behind the goal is a bit quiet.
You think pay for lower then?

i had lower for the Cup semi against chelsea in 09 and it was excellent......great atmosphere and you're still far enough away from the pitch to get a decent view! well worth it id say!

upper tier seemed dead enough that day.........

Yeah. Lower at the back. The downside is thats £70.
I'm sure the lower tier stood.

Yeh might have to spend that little bit extra.

Fucking piss take paying more for lower tier. I would of thought most fans that want to make noise will go with the cheaper tickets!

If I was you, there is no way I would try around Wembley. There going to be £300+ If you can't get one up until the night before, just go down Blackstock Road.

cheers Kingjayson man! im travelling over on the saturday so am going to try pick up one then rather than on the sunday.....will there be any touts around the emirates or wembley the day before do you reckon?Cant see myself missing the game so will probably end up getting stung paying well and truly over the odds.

I saw a deal for a Club Wembley ticket plus accommodation for £245 pp based on 2 sharing. If you serch "Carling Cup tickets" you'll find it. I don't know anything about the company so I'm not going to post the link.

Thanks Mikey!

Hopefully i'll source a ticket somewhere,i've always been lucky up to now!

dont know why you got gunned down for suggesting it mate,not everybody is going to have access to tickets,let alone at face value so lots of fans are going to have to end up buying from a tout-may aswell try and get the best price people can!
