Can't see it breaching 12k. Feel good factor of the post-FGR phase has well and truly withered. 3 disappointing finals. Shite venue for a small final. Shite value for money. Can't see many people bothering. It's a relatively local fixture for me but I'd only go out of a sense of duty* so I can't see many glory hunters going.
* if it was somewhere sensible like Villa Park I'd be more enthusiastic.
Personally though like the idea of going to Wembley.Biggest stage for a important game even if it is lower down the leagues. Another thing is feel its a good day out for players and fans alike as if it was held somewhere else eg Villa park wouldent have the same allure. Must be special for the players as well playing at Wembley as opposed to say a lesser stadium .

Very difficult to get coaches etc organised but massive game for a Club with the traditions of GTFC but the big word is IF. People keep on counting the chickens before they hatch and then they wonder why they are so disappointed so far Mr Hurst has failed to deliver in big games so lets just wait and see what happens over 2 legs first.

The idiot running the conference twitter account seems to reckon they've already flogged 7000 tickets to neutrals as part of their VANARAMA CONFERENCE PROMOTION FINAL BIG DAY OUT (ugh) promotion.
Will be very strange if we get there to be sat with that many attendees who aren't bothered who wins.

18K - 19K. It is live on TV and we went to Wembley recently. The novelty has worn off for lukewarm supporters, even if this match (if we get there) has so much more riding on it.
The weather will certainly be warmer this time!

I think it all depends on who we are playing. If we are playing Bristol, then yes I can see us hitting the 20k mark. It would be a great final: albeit one I don't want as I fancy our chances more against some Eastleigh/Forest Green/Macclesfield, but we can still turn over Bristol.
If it's against any of the other teams, I'd say we'll get around 17k.

I believe the neutral tickets have its own section, and they only cost £10, so would imagine alot of them just won't turn up

Given that ticket in recent years have been about £40 I'm starting to wish I invested in one of these £10 vouchers when I had the chance. I suspect that the extortionate prices will put people off too. As you say, the guy running the conference twitter is a sharp object and I can just see him now gleefully telling fans that they should've got the £10 vouchers when people inevitably tweet him to complain about prices.

These were the prices for last years final. The extortionate handling & postage charges are a true rip off; TICKETS: The Football Conference has appointed an Official Ticket Agency for the sale and distribution of the tickets. PRICING: Level 1 - Adults £36, Under 16's £18. Level 2 (Club Wembley) - Adults £41, no concessions.
There will be a booking fee of £3 per ticket for tickets priced at £36 and £41. A booking fee of £1.50 per ticket will be applied for tickets priced at £18. There are three postage options available, 1st Class at £2.35, Special Delivery at £6.25 or collection from Wembley at £1.95
