Sheffield Wednesday sold almost 45,000 for today and could of sold more.

Looking at the Barnsley sections, looking so empty, is there much more than 20,000 at Wembley and they were fuming that Wednesday were give more tickets.
For me this just shows how small Barnsley as a club are.

Little Luton Town nearly doubled their support.

Barnsley are a small club but Luton only had to travel 30 miles for their final.
Wednesday are a giant of a club and would get 40000 every game in the Prem :thumbup:

Don't think they did but the late great Dickie Bird was there.

And it was only for promotion to the Championship not the Premier League. Barnsley have been up and down the championship and league one for a few years now the novelty is wearing off.
