Yes.
Yes it is.
I think you pay £15 for a ticket to cover pre AND post-match. Personally I'll be sloping back to my own local straight after.

I just dont see what Im paying £11.13 for? Nothing I cant get in a pub.
As well as guaranteed entry you’re getting “Richie Reynolds will host, with live Q&As, video packages and surprise guests”. Not saying it is great value but you’re not getting Richie Reynolds and surprise guests in a rammed Wembley pub.

Richie Reynolds - up close and personal - worth every penny and will even say ‘number 9 Ashley Barnes’ for you if you ask nicely.

Post game it’s a free for all, first come first served, no tickets

Well, depends how long you're there for. But you're NOT paying London prices for beer or scoff, so if you're there for several hours (we got there just before 12), then it's ideal. Less than a fiver a pint, numerous food outlets (my double cheeseburger and fries was £11, and was maHOOsive), plus ample seating and no queues at the bar...BHA entertainment with Sidwell, Butters mincing around...Bloom on the stage
...yeah. That worked.
Absolute shambles Sunday. Got there soon after 12.30 and told nobody allowed in. I said you’ve said first come after that and the bouncers said ‘we changed it’. Thanks for letting us knowMucked up pre match plans and meeting people a bit.
We had tickets, got there around 11:30 and I would say if you were there at 12:30 you weren't let in because it was full.

Nope. Nobody was allowed in without tickets or even allowed to queue up. It wasn’t what they advertised. They said that themselves and they changed it. 100% their f*** up.
On the flip side, I’d guess if you had tickets and got there after 12-30 you’d have been allowed in despite them saying you’d have to queue etc - as there was no queue. Shambles all round.
I had a ticket and everything worked well. Great atmosphere inside and reasonably priced beer. Certainly not shambles all round, maybe just your bit.
What time did you get in?

I think you mis-read. I didn’t get in..! It said first come first served after 12-30 then they didn’t let anyone in at all without a ticket which wasn’t what was advertised.

I’d rate it as a 9/10. It worked well for us. Got there at 11.45. Tables all gone but plenty of shelf standing area upstairs. Met Gully, Dale Stephens, Steve Sidwell, Tony Bloom, Paul Barber. A few other mates. Lovely stuff. Good and drink were decent. Fun to see all the blue and white.
Are you saying you saw people with tickets arrive after you and go straight in? If so, then I'd agree that was not what was advertised but then equally, I wouldn't be surprised they changed it as they sold out. If I hadn't got tickets I would have made other plans and not even bothered to try to get in.

No there was no queue as nobody was allowed. Was only there for 2 mins… it was raining and I’d planned to meet people which didn’t help my mood but they did admit they’d changed it from the advertised ‘first come first served after 12-30’. They could have at the very least out the change on their site to ‘ticket only’ etc - bouncers admitted as much…

They reached capacity just before 12.30pm. I know this because the last one of our group to arrive with a ticket was told he was the last one being admitted.

Really enjoyed the whole experience. Reasonably priced drink and good food with a bit of a sing song thrown in. Seemed to hit the spot with all generations. My lads aged 31 and 22 loved it.
If it is full they're not going to let anyone in. Doesn't matter if you're the first to turn up at 12:30 or not.

So could have let one on one out or similar… As they did before and advertised… look only on nsc can someone try to argue for the sake of arguing when they weren’t privy to the conversation and probably the communication on their site - they mis-advertised, admitted they changed it and it was an annoyance - nothing to see here - poor from them though.
