Are we now going to have holes all over the lower tier where the massed ranks of the Gasroom Barmy Army have deserted their posts in favour of the comfy seats...?
Or are these generally new ticket sales from extremely brave 'holder-outers'...'?
No. I've been watching the Rams since 1961 and it aint over till it's over. Promotion is certainly ours to throw away but Wycombe is never an easy game for us. Throw in Wembley and the effect winning/losing may have on your players both mentally and physically and it's as uncertain an outcome as ever. We then have Orient (H), Cambridge (A) and Carlisle (H). 3 games we ought to win, on paper, however, the game's played on grass. Orient are in "no man's land", can't go up, can't go down, so they will be able to play without pressure which won't make it easy for us. Cambridge should be safe by the time we play them so they may well play with a certain amount of freedom as well. Carlisle will be down by the time we play them so they will have no fear. On paper, we're up. But that means absolutely nothing. We still have to go out and get the necessary points. Bolton and Barnsley both have Pompey to play which should help us. Posh play Bolton on the last day so they can't both win. As long as we match or better the points haul of those 3 in the last few games we are safe. Easier said than done.
2-2. Right result on the night. Their 2nd should have been ruled out for a handball in the build up but, on the other hand, a different ref may well have given them a late penalty. They had 70% possession, we had more shots, same amount as them on target. I would have taken a draw, if offered it, before the off. They will win the title, IMO. If we can match or better the points hauls of Posh, Trotters and Tykes we will go up and keep out tier 3 stats going. This is our 3rd time in tier 3. In our 2 previous stints we promoted in our 2nd season. This time, THIS is our 2nd season. Written in the stars? Who knows? Still a lot of water to flow under the bridge before anything is certain.

I dunno, you, @wwfcblue & @TheAndyGrahamFanClub seem to be doing a stunning job!
Slow afternoon - only seven left now
I think because everyone is wanting to go for Level 2, Its going to be quickly sold by Thursday
Do you think people are just transferring their tickets or are actually 1st time buyers?

(sorry @Otter87 - just realised you've already asked this...!)
Wembley for you guys this coming Sunday. Good luck.
Can you even do this without horrible fees?
@TheAndyGrahamFanClub
Thanks for that. Very civil of you. Ready to announce 'NOTHING CAN GO WRONG NOW' in your search for promotion?
I answered that question above. Thanks @Twizz for quoting.
Just to clarify, you only need to pay the £3 "Admin" charge once.
Fair play to those that held out.
People haven't been sitting around waiting for Tier 2 to open up in these numbers since lockdown.
Nice one Rambo. Hope you smash Pompey to bits tonight
Fair play to Peterborough fans for this initiative.
Peterborough United Wembley fund raises more than £5,000 to buy tickets for fans who might otherwise not be able to afford to go.

Block 251 all but sold out. So when do they open the next one. The 90% rule doesn’t appear to kick in
Darn them and their good karma! Do we have time to rescue any puppies? (Joking apart, well done Posh!)
well I think it’s clear who gets the shirt!

All the best apart from when you play us that is. 👍
Block 250 is now available. Gasroom, go go go!
Just moved my Level 1 tickets to Level 2 for same price. Ticket office super helpful and did it in 3 mins.
The Wembley merch is a bit naff, isn't it? https://www.wwfcshop.co.uk/product-category/wembley-merch-2024/
£20 for a t-shirt you can just about read yeah
It's a woeful effort.
Quite like the scarves actually, although they're sold out
Where are the silly hats and the flags and the rosettes?
Hopefully there will be some decent stuff on those vans and stalls down Wembley way
Does the club make money from those vans? Some of them look fairly unofficial.
No, they're nothing to do with the clubs
Get your half and half scarfs
"Wickham Wanderers v Bleterborough"
Nothing will ever beat the scarves being sold on Wycombe market in 1991, white, with blue writing which read "High Wycombe"
Sensational
There was a High Wycombe Wanderers one at the PNE play-off final. Gutted I didn't buy one.
