Steve we've got to give you a crash course in local sales, need to get your numbers up.

Haha Please do!! 3 devices this morning and at best under an hour. Got straight in for Newcastle otherwise not had much luck this season.

If you're in, stay in til between 8.35-8.45 - some always come up!

I know mate, thanks. I’m well used to it. I got about half the home games in the last two seasons in this sale but I’m just losing interest now. I’ve had none for this season in about 6 attempts. I’d stayed up an hour and half after a night shift to get 30 mins, 45 mims and over an hour wait times. I just cba waiting around and scrapping for probable single seats when I need to get to sleep. The sooner I got to sleep the sooner my Christmas holidays started....  :)

Lots of empty seats in U1 yesterday. More locals than non-locals this time as to be expected.

I thought that had been the case for 2 seasons. I had to though when I've bought it for a mate in my F&F list I had to get it ans prove my address which I found odd. Doesn't matter where I live. (L4 but by their rules I mean)

it has yeah, they only posted them out for a little bit, maybe up til xmas the first season.

It is so they can check ID each time but it obviously has no effect on the touts buying and selling them.

No. I did query it as it doesn't matter where I live when I get them (2 or 3 times in all), and yes I can only allocate them to local mates in my F&F list but it doesn't seem quite right. There have been much better ideas on here

How do you report to the club? Managed to help one of my own mates out getting on the ladder for the Champs league last season refreshing endlessly everyday. Even got him onto this seasons autocup in the champs league in 305 on Kop and not once I’ve seen him and he openly touts the ticket as he’s supposed to be with myself.

went to the ground today to make the complaint
gave them the details and the person at the window took all of the information I provided.  He even seemed to know the dutch website that these were being sold on.

anyhow, he sent the details to the correct place so hopefully something will happen.

(I did say that something needs to be done, like ID at a turnstile, but he replied saying that the damage had already been done at that point.  later I though, at least you'd be finding out which accounts are being used and you could ban them.  anyway. I said, the sales are really good and I don't want to see them go)

Just found this - hope the club look into it at least
https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/liverpool-news/rip-liverpool-fan-tries-charge-15627445

This article makes me laugh, the Liverpool echo clearly don’t have a clue about the scale. They just think coz it’s a big game it’s probably a one off.

Wait until they find out someone can get the same money from a £9 against Newcastle  ::)

I heard about somebody for the Arsenal game, claiming they had came over and then got let down so somebody helped them out with tickets... turns out the person in question has then sold them on for £450 each to a couple of French people and disappeared with the cards... Utterly despicable behaviour
