I am a Manchester Utd supporter, and because I can not get a season ticket it is very hard to get a ticket to a game, my question is how do i get a F.A.CUP Final Ticket? |

My best advice for you is to come to the gates just before the game: there are always season tickets owners who try to (re)sell their sit for that particular match, as well as people who got a ticket and (re)sell it (scalpers). The price is usually higher than what you would have paid in the first place, had you managed to buy it normally, and there are also some dodgy people who scalp, but this is a good chance to get a ticket. |

There are always tickets available at a price. Sometimes, they're advertised in the Press and there are also Agencies that do the works. But, do be careful, there's always a risk of buying a forgery: the ticket may fool you but will it also fool the man on the gate? I suggest that a reputable Agency should be the safest route even if it might be more expensive. |

Here's one on-line source ... http://www.ticket-finders.com/premier_league_tickets.htm Please note that I know NOTHING about them so, if you buy, you are buying at your own risk. However, the prices (£710 to £865) would certainly put me off - even if I'd wanted to go in the first place. Now, if two good teams (Oldham Athletic v almost anybody) had been playing then that would have been a different story. Why don't you just watch it on the telly, for free? |

Hi One answer is to order from outside the UK. Generally foreign ticket requests - especially from the USA, will take priority over UK orders. This is especially true in World Cup games. A friend of my in Oregon gets any ticket to any World Cup match as the number of tickets taken up by the USA is well below what they are allocated. Albanaich |

Hi, Albanaich10 ... The question concerns the FA Cup Final which is FAR MORE IMPORTANT than any World Cup Match ... And I seriously doubt if any country outside the UK gets any ticket allocation for such an important game. Of course, I could be completely wrong. |

Hi My friend in the US happens to be a Celtic supporter and gets tickets to Old Firm matches, (which are far more important than the FA Cup) and could not hope to get in Scotland by booking from the US. Try it and see. There's nothing to lose. Albanaich |

Hi, Again, Albanaich10 I've never heard of this club 'Celtic' that you refer to. I suspect that it's an Irish Hurling Club. Which would explain a lot. Warmest regards PB |

thank you for trying but I feel that I will ask a friend who is a Millwall supporter to apply for an extra ticket and perhaps go with him, I would be in the wrong end but what else can one do??? abbsal |

Hi, Abbsal Getting a ticket through a Millwall supporter is certainly worth a shot but my guess is that there will be a huge demand from the Millwall fans, so you may not be lucky. However, if you are really determined and you are prepared to pay a silly price if necessary then you will certainly get in. Do let us know how you get on. And the Very Best of Luck! PB |
