Fingers crossed I get one in the second sale.

[Danny Boys Dad]

Why level 3? When we’ve been there before we’ve been in the lower tier but that was a while back.

[Buck Pete]

They must have moved ALL away fans to the upper tier.

Utter c*nts

Unless its just for our game which in that case.  Utter, Utter c*nts

[ChrisLFCKOP]

Why level 3? When we’ve been there before we’ve been in the lower tier but that was a while back.

Surely thinking easier to manage in the one tier and therefore probably got more than they would have if they spilt us over the 3 tiers.

[LFC_R_BOSS]

Utter c*nts

Unless its just for our game which in that case.  Utter, Utter c*nts

At least we won’t have to look at those inbreds

[ABJ]

Thats exactly the reason, if we'd had our normal league allocation + a bit more, it wouldn't have been anywhere near 5432 but we got that amount because we've got the entire 3rd tier of that stand.

[Fazak_Red]

Rather be all in the upper than over 3 tiers to be honest. Hate away ends that are over different tiers.

will feel like an euro away

[NickoH]

Easy enough. We've got all the top blocks

[Danny Boys Dad]

Easy but most of the lower rows already gone. Might need a hand up to row J 

Booked the coach as well.

[willss]

Got in dead on 8:15 and didn’t mess about but loads had already gone. Deffo been pre basketed somehow!!

[MKB]

Blocks 313 to 317 were on sale, so they've probably got the remaining level 3 block (318) held back to gauge demand first.

[monkeyharris]

Had one of those fun sessions were it wouldn't accept my saved card
Rang my bank - they said they'd not blocked it
So re-entered it and it worked
Always something

[swoopy]

I think others just might've been quicker. The only ones that had gone were the front few of 315 which looks like the ones the club held back. I got front row of 314 and all other blocks had the front rows available.

Maybe. I only looked in 305 and loads were gone and it looked suspicious

Yes, but there was a slight quirk to the hallmark URL that means it probably wasn't guessable, so not sure how people are doing it.  Could just be the staff/player allocations, could be some people being given early access, or could be insider knowledge.  Amazed they don't use a 64-character random key for the event id.

[devilfysh]

I clicked POST but was not charged? Email doesn't mention anything about fulfilment. Anyone else click post but was charged?

[6 Euros]

They are just sent first class, not special delivery so no charge.

[redgriffin73]

Shitloads gone in front 10 or so rows in most blocks by about 8.16 when I got in. Still a few around in those rows but mainly singles or a few dropping from baskets.

[devilfysh]

oh right. That's good.

[andy07]

Was in at 8:15 and the first 15 or so rows in the central blocks were not available.

[vlademer17]

Hoping and praying get sorted in second sale.
Last time went City away was Boss for the Champions league.

[ABJ]

Got in dead on 8:15 and didn’t mess about but loads had already gone. Deffo been pre basketed somehow!!

Because the club hold back around the 1st 10 rows in the central blocks for 'others'.

[ABJ]

Blocks 313 to 317 were on sale, so they've probably got the remaining level 3 block (318) held back to gauge demand first.

Gauge demand, are you serious?

As I and many found out last week during the bulk sales, don't use a saved card as it probably won't work although as you found out as well, typing in the same card details works. It won't have anything to do with the LFC systems though, no chance, it will be down to Brexit or Covid.

Yep, I haven't trusted the saved card option since last season, it's always seemed glitchy.

It wasn't just 315, loads of the front rows in 316 were greyed out as well.

[ABJ]

Loads had the same issue last week during the bulks, the saved card failed then kicked you out and emptied your basket.

Good to see that the club have addressed the issue though.

Bulk sale i had card issue and the wouldn't let me proceed to payment until one ticket for one of mates was young adult nothing else worked.
Finished with 1m20s to spare, at least was guaranteed but still a nightmare.

[stonecold_jpm]

How many are left?

[MKB]

Gauge demand, are you serious?

I agree it's silly, but either that, or there's just one block of home fans up there.  Possible I suppose.

[ABJ]

Oh 318 is definitely ours, ridiculous that they've held it back though.

[ant]

i used my saved card and it worked sound today, not like the bulk sale were it kicked me out - ynwa

[swoopy]

Used mine too. But I think it was because the card provider doesn't need the 2FA authentication as I already set LFC as a trusted merchant last week.

[End Product]

Do folks reckon this will drop to just Leicester ?

[ChrisLFCKOP]

Doubt it, second sale is massively over subscribed.

The real reason is that they want us to be as far away from the pitch as possible, to limit our impact atmosphere-wise.

As with Newcastle, any 'safety' line that gets trotted out is absolute nonsense.

In the Premier League, they are obliged to give us pitchside seats. It would sure be easier to manage, if they give us just the lower tier, or a split between tier 1 and tier 2. However they don't, and they have our 3,000 split between three tiers, with half of our allocation being in the upper. That's not an 'easier to manage' decision.

[Hij]

Fingers crossed I can get one tomorrow then!

[SDFKOP]

Anyone got a link to the seating plan?
