Fully agree they need to do something to confirm you’re actually local.

Collect at the window with proof of address / check at turnstile / require proof of address to be eligible for the sale. Not doing at least one of these is just lazy from the club.

There's definitely people on social media who are definitely not local who are in today's sales... not even trying to hide it.. I'd be happy to provide proof akin to the fan update if required... almost a year now since I got sorted in a local sale

Bringing back the verification wouldn't be a bad thing at all.

No, but this seems unusually short...

Number of users in queue ahead of you: 8091
Your estimated wait time is: 23 minutes

If they've changed the basket, is it actually 5 mins or is it refresh and it's infinite? if it's actually 5 mins then they deffo read these threads cos I was moaning about it's shitness the other day.

Hope that's not for the bulk sales!

Maybe this is to stop the hoarding of tickets in baskets and then running to social media to try and sell them or forcing away sales etc down the credit ladder?

Autobasket? Does that mean you need to go into the block?

I got in about 11:20, refreshing like mad but now have 406 error. Funny they can't stop bots or people queue jumping but they can stop genuine fans from refreshing trying to get a ticket  ;D

I thought there might have been a bit of an additional drop, living in hope they had cancelled bot tickets or something. No such luck

Woke up to see that people from Birmingham have been boxed in a local sale?
Start to understand now when people tell me that they pack it in because it’s a cash grab now!

That is grim.

This is not a us v them or local v non local thing either. It is the club taking the piss out of local people, suggesting they give locals a chance to see their local side for 9 quid when in fact they are complicit in assisting touts to make significant profits, whilst this is flashed in the face of local fans on social media. They are complicit because although technology is ever changing and hard to combat, there are things that can be done by way of technology and particularly physically to mitigate this. It is never going to be perfect, but this at the moment is wrong.

I would rather them just come out and fuck the local 9 quid sale off. At least we would know where they stand.

The only thing grim is the people exploiting something good the club has done for the locals.

This is nothing more than people taking the piss so it’s not even us vs them!

As we have said so many times on this thread, the club could easily sort this out.

But they won't.

Probably the man power for sorting it is too much vs the good PR. At least they can say "we have tickets for locals for £9"

they won't because on the face of it £9 tickets to locals looks super for PR

Yes to both mate. I don't know how I've never got the 406 error as I'm refreshing like a mad man when I get in

You on phone or desktop/laptop? I don't seem to get the 406 on my phone it seems just related to the laptop. And it's ip/proxy related because when I switch to a hotspot phone network and refresh it lets me back in. So there is some preventative firewall going on that is causing this.
I told you about the tractor doing the pillar box 2001 and all the tickets had off, now they hitting the vans, what next, guns in the T O window.

I was too late mate long gone. Realised to try that too late. If I had the usual 20 mins I might have made it but think its five mins now isn't it?

Bird on chat said they are sold when I eventually got through. Told her I had been on since 8 and is there anything else and got told to do one.

Happened to me twice that on Firefox so deffo not using that anymore. Fuckin payment screen is visible bit a please wait circling won't go. Nightmare

it was 20 mins for me on the city sale. I've had that thing where the proceed wouldn't work, I went back to the map and clicked through again a couple of times and then it worked.
