Any news on ticketing?

No, I’ve seen some talk that info is being released on Friday and then on sale from Monday but nothing official.

Been like that for the last 2 weeks. I wonder if it's the ticket office being their usual useless selves or if we are being held to decisions made by the FA / Gov?

It's a decision for Brent Council, apparently. I'm getting very twitchy about going seeing how many are now testing positive even after both jabs.

If Brent council refuse to sanction a crowd of more than 30k, will there be a justification for moving the game to the midlands  ??

 

 

People would also kick off after seeing what happened at the EUROs under restrictions still imposed on the country by the Government.

 

I think the only issue is sanctioning more than 75% capacity at the moment.

Villa Park is being used that weekend for a friendly v Sevilla 

 

I predicted back when they were ramping up the test events at Wembley that the crowds were too small and not partisan enough to truly test the plans. Low and behold, big crowds arrive for the Euros, problems occur

I'd be surprised if more than 30k go anyway given the amount self isolating.

The FA move a game away from Wembley? Can't see that happening.

There is no limit on attendees now.  I wonder if brent council and nhs employees are sick of footy yet.

Also no test event was ever going to feature people trying to break in on mass. There simply wasn't enough national hype in any of them

Correct but regardless of that, fans with tickets say the covid negative test passes etc were an absolute farce. The app broke down at one point for example and stewards were careless in checking.

I think mine was glanced at at best at the FA cup, too many people for that to feasibly work

Referee appointment:

https://www.thefa.com/news/2021/jul/22/20210722-paul-tierney-to-referee-fa-community-shield-2021

 

However, nothing on tickets still...

 

If you read the article there are two interesting parts:

 

"FA Referees’ Committee chairman David Elleray added: “We’re delighted at the prospect of the 2021 FA Community Shield being played in a partially-full Wembley Stadium"

"Kick-off time and broadcast details for the game will be confirmed in due course."

 

Seems like it may be 75% then (or similar).

 

Also, the second quote, pretty sure it has been confirmed as 17:00 KO and it being on ITV...

Two weeks to the event and no ticket details yet....

Joke. And they want things to be organised considering the current state of everything!

It's disgraceful how late we were provided information for the FA Cup and now this.

The FA Cup was understandable, as frustrating as it was. No excuse for this one.

 

Just to add, pretty sure this is no fault of either club either.

This should be full capacity, no excuse for it not to be

Seen a couple people on twitter now say ticket details will be tomorrow. No idea where they are getting that from?

 

In the meantime Jim said "hopefully we will have something very soon" yesterday.

That all Jim ever says waste of time in my experience

No use it being 75%+ capacity when they’re giving people 2 weeks’ notice or less.

 

I’d be surprised if they got 40,000.
