Why does it bother you how many kids are there, real or phantom? Just enjoy the day out and be happy your beloved club is playing in a final at Wembley.

Re: 19,000 sold by O's FA Trophy Final
Will be tough to match that, but there should be a surge if we were to win the title, and then the club could focus all their media output into publicity for the final.A Pedant wrote: ↑Wed Apr 17, 2019 12:32 pm24,000+, according to the club: https://www.leytonorient.com/news/2014/ ... 4-on-pens/

Re: 19,000 sold by O's FA Trophy Final
The number is probably higher because some have bought tickets in the Chertsey or Cray sections to avoid being “up in the Gods” in O’s seats.

Re: 19,000 sold by O's FA Trophy Final
Neutral section is sold out. I got my 11 tickets (6 adult/2 OAP/3 kids) there on initial sale as its an annual day out for a few of us. A bonus Orient and Cray Valley got there as two of us are Os STHs and another couple come from Eltham and watch Cray Valley occasionally. We do have one kids ticket spare as my nephew is now off camping that weekend.

Re: 19,000 sold by O's FA Trophy Final
Is 24,000 the biggest number of Os fans at a game? Wondering how many were at 1978 semi final, probably wasn't quite that much.A Pedant wrote: ↑Wed Apr 17, 2019 12:32 pm24,000+, according to the club: https://www.leytonorient.com/news/2014/ ... 4-on-pens/

Re: 19,000 sold by O's FA Trophy Final
19,000 sold, so far, for a Michael mouse cup final, is fantastic. What a day it would be if we are already up!
Re: 19,000 sold by O's FA Trophy Final
Remember a lot of space on the terrace for the cup semi, but think most of the seats were taken.

Re: 19,000 sold by O's FA Trophy Final
It matters because of the lack of atmosphere if there are empty seats everywhere.
Still not got our lot and know a few others in the same boat, so suspect the figure is artificially high (at this stage) because of the Phantom Kids.

Also the kids will be shrieking in a high-pitched fashion and that seriously does my head in.

The £14 official Wembley wigs available from Macklin Enterprises aren’t included in this assessment, are they?

Maybe a good idea. The game may soon sound like a Justin Bieber concert.loughtonos wrote: ↑Wed Apr 17, 2019 4:36 pmYou could buy earplugs from any chemist.Disoriented wrote: ↑Wed Apr 17, 2019 3:12 pm Also the kids will be shrieking in a high-pitched fashion and that seriously does my head in.

Re: 19,000 sold by O's FA Trophy Final
Probably because there won't be 25 seats together. Book in two smaller groups, or wait until they open the next block of seating on level 5.
