Still 1800 tickets left apparently, I guess folks didn't get suckered in for the prices

If Wolves had finished 7th in the Premier League again this season we would have qualified for the new Europa Conference League. There’s going to be some pretty low ranked teams in that which won’t make it very attractive or profitable, but would make it winnable for whoever qualifies from England

I don’t like it. It’s basically a revamped inter toto cup.

I guess that has to be the official Spurs line when you are in 7th place. If Everton get it then it is a waste of time anyway?

It may not be "attractive or profitable" in your eyes, but it will open the door for more teams to play European football. Some of whom may well prosper from their extra revenue/prize money. The amount of prize money hasn't been announced yet, but the estimates are in the region of 5 million euros, which will help the coffers of the so called "pretty low ranked teams"

All the £45 tickets sold for the Man Utd game. Still a few hundred £40 tickets that will go on sale to the Priority 3 group of the ballot on Monday

Maybe all the £45 tickets have been sold “in your eyes”, but some might be returned due to illness.

Also, its very likely many of those “few hundred” will be sold before Monday via the internet sales platform.

Really pleased to see the fans didn't go crazy and snap up the tickets immediately. Seems the money was certainly an issue for many.

Surely not. All he real fans that go to games will snap them right up. Remember, its only the fans on social media that don't go that will complain.

I can’t help think that the clubs have misjudged the mood of the fans in this country generally.

VAR, behind closed doors matches, the ESL fiasco, players attitudes, etc has seriously damaged the product over the last 12 months.

A lot of people I talk to are somewhat apathetic at the moment.

A lot of people are not apathetic. All tickets will be sold for the Utd game by Monday morning and come August all the Premier League games will be sold out regardless of the opposition. One of my new motivations is to go get away from the online apathy and negativity and get back to enjoying watching live football, just as I have done since I was a schoolboy

Yeah that is certainly the case this season. Is it just me or have there been fewer sackings this season as well?

Dave Edwards posting on Twitter today to announce his retirement from football. Great servant to Wolves and Shrewsbury, wish him all the best for the future

Much more people are apathetic than those that are not. People that go to games are an irrelevance to the big clubs. They are only there to generate an atmosphere for the real target audience, the armchair subscriber. It's these people that are currently negative about the product on sale.

This season has been utter crap in truth. Three games left to play and absolutely nothing to play for other than 4th place.

I agree it's advisable to avoid the Internet though if you want to escape reality and live cocooned in the delusional bubble of Utopia.

Only just realized it's the FA Cup final

Imagine if I were apathetic

Fair play to Leicester, could argue this season is more impressive than the title winning one to some degree. Envious, no reason at all why we shouldn't be able to emulate what they are doing.

Saw Richard stearman earlier nice lad

Fair play to the foxes winning the Cup

Good to see Leicester win that and touching to see the involvement of the owner in the celebrations
A big difference to most of the so called big 6

It's interesting to note that tickets sales etc for matches generate about 40m a season for us, yet TV money brings in over 60m.

Well done the armchair fans, I say.

Hopefully armchair fans may buy the occasional overpriced shirt etc to help with the coffers as well as paying their tv subs
