Trying to guess my chances of getting FA cup Semi Final tickets, how many members are there? Is it considerably more than the allocated 33967 tickets we have for the tie?

How many points have you got?

I was in the 20 zone last season and still managed to get tickets for the semi-final game against Spurs last season. You will be fine with. Even with 40 points, or more like me, we should be fine I hope.

I hope you're right, must have been unbelievable watching that matic goal fly in! 

We have had more games than last season, but that said I reckon it will start at around 57 points and drop to 30

It never starts high so expect a rush on Wednesday !

It's Southampton and we've been to Wembley countless times, I would say it will go down to about 25, also there is always a couple of thousand more released nearer the game, when fa bods and football family don't take them up.

Probably, I remember the League cup final in 2015 going down to 35. Chelsea seems to like selling members tickets very quickly so actually it wouldn't suprise me if it just start at 40 - 35 for everyone and drop to 25 the next day.

Yes it's a bit of a joke that, as people with high loyalty points should have time, instead of going into a bun fight with everyone else. I was on 90 loyalty points last season and got a cup final ticket

From memory tickets for the FA Cup semi final will be readily available to any members/ST holders who want to go.

Unfortunately the final will be a different story. Should we get there, the game will be higher profile and we will have a reduced allocation. Members with very high points could be ok but all season ticket holders will get the opportunity first.

Wednesday 4 April 7am until 10.30am ONLINE ONLY: Members with 40 loyalty points or more can purchase one ticket.

Wednesday 4 April 11am until 2.30pm ONLINE ONLY: Members with 35 loyalty points or more can purchase one ticket.

Wednesday 4 April 3pm ONLINE ONLY: Members with 30 loyalty points or more can purchase one ticket.

Guess I was way off, 40 points it is not 50

So I get to slog it out with people who went to a handful of matches for the more reasonably priced tickets. Hurrah for loyalty!

A joke starting so low so early on, plenty of time to stagger sales, mind you there will be plenty to go round, think saints are struggling to sell there's.

Yup. It's either max points for a particular away game or very low for a big home/neutral game. There's little reward for having more than 50 points it seems. Chelsea must have it right on how many people they assume will want a ticket, but they don't care about people with higher points getting the seat at Wembley they desire. I'll be a bit miffed if I pay £65 and have to sit in the upper tier.

One thing I am curious about is how many points is needed for a season ticket this year. Wouldn't it be nice to avoid all this...

I’m hoping to get mine back. There was a time where the fans were really disillusioned by the happenings at the club enough for it to reach 0 points. 80 will do for me though

It was well over 100 last year, but with the dross being dished out this season and the probability of the team and club going no where but backwards in the coming seasons it will be lower probably

Last year it was 110 and I've never seen it be higher than that on the current system. I am hoping to end the season on 111/117 but it's false hope because I never have enough! plus I forgot to renew my membership for the 5 point bonus

@Munkworth I think also after Ancelotti went, it dropped to 0 points!

Whatever it's out of my control I suppose.
