Last updated : 30 June 2008 By Jim Bonner
Portsmouth have announced the details of how to get a ticket for their third trip to Wembley to take on Manchester United for the Community Shield.

The club have been allocated 26,218 tickets that will be sold over a three week period from the 7th to the 28th of July ranging from £40 - £15 if you're an adult.

Here's a breakdown of how Pompey fans can buy their tickets (one each).

£40 - £30 Bracket (£35 - £25 for Children)

July 7th: South Stand Upper ST Holders
July 8th: North Stand Upper ST Holders

£30 - £20 Bracket (£25 - £15 for Children)

July 9th: South Stand Lower ST Holders
July 10th: North Stand Lower ST Holders
July 11th: Fratton End ST Holders

£30 ONLY (£25 for Children): Postal Application Only

July 7th - 11th: Junior Blues Members for the 07/08 season (Parent/Guardian can also buy a ticket with them)

£20 - £15 Bracket (£15 - £10 for Children)

July 14th - 18th: Club Members

Misc.

July 21st - 25th: Anyone ST holder or member who missed their allocated day(s)
July 28th: General Sale

100 pairs of tickets at £15 will be made available for disabled supporters via postal application whilst season ticket holders can purchase up to eight tickets at once if they all have valid client reference numbers.

Unfortunately, Ticketmaster is handling the whole operation again which means an extra £3.50 per ticket booked as well as a £4.90 registered delivery postal charge.

Coach travel can also be booked with the ticket at £22 per person whilst Pompey and the FA have threatened to ban anyone who buys a ticket through a third party.
