Sheffield United Wembley Tickets: Prices, how to buy and travel options for Blades' play-off final clash

Sheffield United booked their place in the Championship play-off final later this month in emphatic fashion, with attention now turning towards another trip to Wembley on May 24. The Blades registered a remarkable 6-0 aggregate victory over Bristol City in their two-legged semi-final, even if boss Chris Wilder insisted that the experience was not as comfortable as the scoreline suggested.

The margin of victory did put down a real marker though ahead of the final, which will see the Blades face either Sunderland or Coventry City with the two sides doing battle again tonight [Tuesday] at the Stadium of Light. At the time of writing the kick-off time for the final has not yet been confirmed, with Blades fans facing potential issues with returning to Sheffield on the Saturday evening because of train issues.

But they can at least begin to prepare their trip after ticket details were confirmed, with sales beginning on Wednesday, May 14 at noon. That is when season ticket holders will be able to claim their seats, with one ticket available per customer number. Sales then open up to membership card holders on Friday, May 16 at 9am, before going on general sale later that day at 1pm to fans with a previous United purchase history and at least 200 loyalty points.

A United statement clarified that the latter restriction is due to the risk of supporters of the opposition club buying tickets in the Blades area, with either Sunderland or Coventry expected to take a large contingent to Wembley should their side progress in the semi-final tonight.

How many tickets have Sheffield United been allocated for Wembley?

The Blades have been handed just over 35,500 tickets for the Wembley final, in the east end of Wembley - which means the popular Green Man pub will not be allocated to Unitedites. Tickets will be sold from the north stand side round to the south stand, with pricing split into three sections.

Concession prices are also available for fans aged 60+ and children under 16, although no kids under two will be allowed into the stadium. The unavailability of the popular Green Man pub will be a blow to some Blades fans who have enjoyed its hospitality on previous visits to Wembley, but Unitedites can at least repeat their visit to BoxPark from two years ago against Manchester City after being allocated use of that venue.
