There may be plenty going but I'm not sure how many will get there: www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-14565803 Typical, strike when it causes the most dismay.

I'm going, for the day, on Sunday.

Just out of interest, why do you need to make a profit by selling them? Surely if you'd rather go to the Cup final, then as long as you get your money back it's all good

Who are the headliners this year ?

The mighty White ace is following the well worn trail of going on Friday afty for tent building, wembley on Saturday and then back to the fest Saturday night. Top soldier.

Wish I was going. Used to go every year up until a couple of years ago when all my mates settled down and had families, me included. Will be going to Wembley though with the family!

I did that 2005 for Leeds vs Hull final, wish I hadn't have bothered!

I will be there, 4th year in a row and 7th year overall, gutted to be missing Wembley, as that day is the worst day!

Saturday is my best day, get on the NME stage! Tis gunna be ace. Plus they're putting a big screen up for the Final apparently.

2002 was my first one when it was at Temple Newsam, the riots were mental. Tbh every few years the line ups are rehashed versions. I've seen Placebo, Feeder, Muse, Streets, Dizzee Rascal and quite a few other bands a few times each in the 7 or 8 Leeds Fests I've been to. Its a better lineup this year compared to last years, thought last years was the worst I'd seen so I didn't go and went to watch Wire batter us instead. Last Leeds Fest I went to was 2009 when Arctic Monkeys and Kings of Leon headlined, was one of the better line ups!

There will be a big screen up, watched it last year. Although it all turned sour when wire fans started running their mouths and chairs started to fly

Right Said Fred

I last went in 2000. Then I became too old and boring.

When I first used to go to that festival it was only held in Reading, none of this 2 centre malarkey.

I'm sure there used to be a smilie with an old man grey beard....

Ah the joys of trawling down to Reading in '96 to watch Ian Brown bellow his way through a half d impression of himself from 7 years previous. Did the full weekend with £2.65 in my pocket after losing my money on way down.
