Went to a Cup Final a few years ago, massive obviously yet I would have reservations about a half-filled stadium.
It will be a lot closer to full than half full I reckon.

Wembley loses a little more of it's magic.
Every time I go I get off at a different station on the Jubilee line and go in the nearest pub, I'm constantly disapointed.
This time I'll probably just stay in that Wetherspoons outside Victoria, It's shit but at least it's familiar shit

Bound to be an evening game with all the usual issues of getting back to Victoria for a train
Most people have been to New (and many Old) Wembley so know the score.
For me, as I'm sure you as well, I've been to WHL/UP a number of times.Cant drink in area/nightmare getting away from both.
For our first season I'm delighted we are going to Olympic Stadium/Wembley.Both novelties for us and should be great days out.Lets leave the whingeing for years 2 onwards at West Ham, by which time we should be looking forward to the new WHL.
If we must whinge about aways next season, I suggest we start with the diabolical view at the back of the Anfield Road Lower.
Me? I'd much rather be going to Upton Park and White Hart Lane.
It's great for all our new young fans to have an opportunity to go to Wembley . I have been to Wembley loads of time for concerts England Games and leauge cup finals and FA Cup and play offs .
Let's hope we stay up to go to Spurs new £800 million + stadium which is having 18,000 fans banked behind one goal.
New Wembley, honestly, it is shit. FA Cup Final would be a different story.
Where are the away fans going to be located at Wembley Stadium?
For our Premier League matches, visiting supporters will be located in Blocks 112 – 119. This may change for matches in UEFA competition dependent on opponents and their ticketing requirements.
How many seats is that?
Looking at this link

I would estimate 6000 seats in blocks 112 - 119.
There are 34,303 seats in the lower tier at Wembley split into 44 blocks, of which visitors are to be allocated eight. Accepting that not all blocks will hold a similar number of seats, a rough calculation would be 34,303 / 44 = 779.6 X 8 = 6,236. Some of the allocated blocks are right in the corner so maybe a bit less - perhaps between 5,500 and 6,000.
I could of course be wrong but would have thought Spurs would want to make as much as they possibly can out of playing at the venue.
