Then what happens ? Saints appeal the decision ? Reinstate Boro and Millwall protest as both teams lost. Give Hull a bye ?  Rerun the whole thing with Wrexham ?

Turf us out, let Boro through, let us challenge over the summer. We are not guaranteed to beat Hull so to claim we lost £200m or what ever is a bit of a stretch

I bet Boro have said to EFL we want you to do this x,,y,z and EFL have agreed and now cant work out how to publish thier agreement with Boro to make it look like EFL have decided. Boro are running this whole fake cheating. Look at those Boro defenders and keeper not much attempt to get the ball which somehow slowly flew in unchallenged.

I’m sure it’ll be released either late today or tomorrow

Nothing to worry about

Yes looks like tomorrow tickets will go on sale.

Hull posted the following statement this morning, but if you head to their website it quite clearly indicated underneath that tickets will be on sale Friday.

Thank you for your patience while we await confirmation of the kick-off time for our Sky Bet Championship Play-Off Final.

We know many of you have contacted the Ticket Office in recent days, and we wanted to provide supporters with as much information as possible ahead of sales opening.

Full details, including confirmed sale dates and kick-off time, will be communicated in due course. Until then, we kindly ask supporters to refrain from contacting the Ticket Office while final details are being confirmed.

We appreciate your continued patience and support.

Get Wembley Ready!

BBC complete waste of money just like Boro defence 

[Willo of Whiteley]

Hull’s statement is like a holding pattern statement.

I imagine the EFL want to release a statement before tickets go on sale.

If corporate packages are being sold already then I'm sure the full details will be announced soon.

I don't think they're on sale. It's "enquiries only"

Saints have emailed their hospitality clients with prices and details. Would say the ticket information isn’t too far off now.

Yes. Few people have had calls too. They’re selling Saints only hospitality packages and were giving details. 
 

Exhibit A was included in the emails;

Perhaps EFL are struggling to find a referee from Middlesbrough thats available for Saturday 23rd May. Or they cant agree the fee.

I suddenly feel better, cheers

The other thing to bear in mind is that the kick off time hadn't been announced, which is unusual.

That was due to Millwall's potential involvement. So perhaps some further details need to be worked out with stakeholders like local authorities, police etc.

Agreed - looking back at that, the original kick off time was apparently 12 noon, which would've meant less drinking time before the match, for exactly that reason. Hull won't want a noon kick off (mind you, we won't either).

[Sunnyside Saint]

Maybe allowing the publication of final ticket details 'needs' to be delayed to show that the EFL is acting in a fair and thorough manner. Giving the finalists the go ahead could be construed as pre-empting the tribunal decision somewhat.

You would think the EFL would of had pre planned this for any eventual outcome from the semi finals. Surely they cannot only just be liasing with the police etc on times now.
