If the credit were awarded to those that actually attended the games I'm sure this sale would be far less painful. The split would be a lot greater than it is at present instead of people just credit hunting all the games

What's showing?

Not loads. Mainly back of the Anny Road upper and back of the main.

when did you join the closed page?

I was opening up browsers from about 730 - 800. Interesting that the first one I opened went in, everything else over an hour.

Still think it's pot luck.

I said I'd try for a mate 2mor. He knows his chances are slim so there's no pressure but still dreading it!

Just hope he does ok today.

Still encourages credit-hunting, though, doesn't it?

makes no difference if everyone on 19 just buys up all the seats before the first 13 staggered sale

still a better system that what we have now, plus unless you do it of whether the card is swiped (not sure if they have that data) then how could they?

I know in years past if you bought a ticket and then returned it you’d still get the credit, not sure if they’ve fixed that. Should get some sort of online ballot for eligible members which would help with the site and the 40 year old servers

Oh well saved a couple of hundred quid.

actwithoutwords · « **Reply #381 on:** July 18, 2018, 08:43:40 am »

Anyone here actually bought any? This seems quite unusual

Rhi · « **Reply #382 on:** July 18, 2018, 08:44:34 am »

Still over an hour on 3 devices

Limited availability in all games

*sigh*

Weridly enough it was exactly the same last season in this sale.

If you look at yesterday, there were about 12k sessions in the queue but everyone on here was reporting times of only a few minutes up to about 27 minutes.. today there's the same number of sessions pretty much but everyone's over an hour! Very weird

Sacked the PL off this year because of this shit show. ACS is a bloody god send compared to this. on 11 and only wanted United or Arsenal games as cant afford much more after getting ACS for all comps. Luckily no relying on today as would have been mega dissapointed, not even a look in and on the blog says only singles left. good luck to everyone that is near

pretty much standard really. If you have a job where you can check the site during when they come back on sale you can usually get sorted when they put random tickets back on, and they tend to be better tickets

I had been thinking about sacking off ACS for the cups to go for all league games this year, but glad I didn't now. I managed 10 league homes last year and a couple of aways (not on my own card obviously)... who knows how many I'll manage this year now.

Until they sort out a way for credits only counting on your card if you're the one who's gone in the stadium, this will be a problem, and that's the end of it, basically. And that won't happen because too many people like the ability to credit hunt and hide behind data protection when the idea of photocards come up.

Blah.

Still over an hour on all devices. I'm out.

Good luck to the rest of you.

KissThisGuy · « **Reply #392 on:** July 18, 2018, 08:53:08 am »

Not looking good. I'm going to hang on in the office chance people have extra tickets in their baskets. Long shot maybe.

08.48 GMT

We would like to advise supporters waiting in the queue that tickets for all fixtures are almost sold out.

Barneylfc∗ · « **Reply #395 on:** July 18, 2018, 08:55:57 am »

We can confirm that we have now sold out of tickets for Manchester City, Everton and Manchester United.

Think I missed this sale last year, but never had a situation like this in the last few years of bulk sales. Maybe was my time to be unlucky, but it's still weird how virtually no one here got any.

thing is there are ways like pre auth to get in the queues but they’ll never bother as they don’t need to do it
