Arsenal chief executive Ivan Gazidis has questioned the "balance" of ticketing for the FA Cup final against Hull after each club were allocated 25,000 seats.
Despite Wembley's capacity being 90,000, the FA will give some 20,000 tickets to volunteers through the 'football family', which includes counties, leagues, local clubs and charities, the 92 Premier League and Football League clubs, another 134 full member clubs and all clubs who reached the third round.
Club Wembley members will take 17,000 tickets.
Gazidis said: "We are disappointed many of our supporters and also those of Hull City will be unable to get tickets to the cup final.
"We fully understand this is the showpiece FA fixture to celebrate the game as a whole, but we also believe the loyal supporters of the competing teams deserve a greater chance to see their team play in what is one of the biggest matches of the season."
