The Rams at Wembley: Almost 10,000 tickets sold to Derby County fans in first two hours

DERBY County fans desperate to see their club play at Wembley have already bought close to 10,000 tickets in the first two hours after they went on sale. The Rams will face QPR in the final on Saturday, May 24 3pm kick-off). Derby have been allocated 37,249 tickets for the West End of Wembley Stadium and they went on sale for some fans today. Sales are split into two sections, with the first period being open to current full and half season-ticket holders, new 2014-15 season ticket holders, home members (including the Rams Squad) and 6&12 package customers. Tickets for the game are only available online at www.seetickets.com/go/derbycounty or over the phone on 0844 854 1359. There will be no tickets available over the counter at the Derby County Ticket Office for this match. Should any tickets remain they will go on general sale from 9am on Saturday. Brandon Furse, head of Derby County's ticket sales and services, said: "It seems to have gone really well this morning. "We had about 100 people at the iPro Stadium this morning for various reasons - buying a season ticket for next year, trying to sort out their customer number, getting on the Roadrider service and so on. "So we'd had one or two queries but, generally, it's been smooth and we've done nearly 10,000 tickets in the first two hours. "What we've said is that everyone who qualifies for a ticket in the first period of sale is guaranteed one. "This would not have been the case if season-ticket holders had been able to get more than one ticket each - other season-ticket holders would have missed out. "But these people do not have to take advantage of this priority if they want to try to get seats with others in the general sale. That is up to them if they want to take the risk. "We expect sales to slow down now after the initial rush but I think it's been so far, so good." Let us know how you got on with buying your tickets today. Was the process easy and simple? How long did it take? And, if you were among those scrambling for Wembley tickets in 2007, how does it compare to last time?
