That said, the maths is puzzling me still lol.

Think there are single seats in about 10 blocks that keep coming back. Went into a block rather than using drop downs then and one seat
I’ve only seen singles yeah

I was prepared for a huge nightmare... But it wasn't that bad. Opened only 500 windows and had 10 minutes waiting time on one of them. Everything went sold out when it was just 2 minutes to go.
But then there were loads of drops, sometimes 5-10 blocks at once, so after some constant refreshing (and being just seconds too late on several occasions) I finally secured a ticket. God bless that Fan Update thing!

I think you take it a bit too literally ;D

Anyway, there were a lot more tickets and blocks popping up than I'd expected.

Some of those tickets will have been returns from last week too, I'm sure. But a fair amount of tickets there!

The same for me, apart from the 500 windows. 10 mins waiting time (usually over an hour) and by the time I got in it was sold out. A few mins later a couple of bounce backs and then got a kop ticket..only my 4th league game of the season

Didn’t know where to post it but don’t you think members should get to watch LFC U23’s online? Heck let’s you into Anfield for free to watch them being a member. Tens of thousands get no tickets so the membership fee goes to waste.
LFCTV is a different thing, members get a discount on a subscription and can go to any of the games free if they want, I would probably go some more if they still played in Chester/Tranmere.

No United today, I’d expect probably just 1 or 2 drops before Sunday. Yesterday was the day to get sorted

Yeah not a thing all day, shit, hopefully another drop to come but looking likely it'll be more like thursday or friday as there will only be a few due to yesterday's drop, not that it'll stop me looking anyway!

Mate had two in his basket and then it kicked him out. Roll with the punches.

I need to try and get two more by seasons end. This fan update has at least potentially opened the door somewhat.

West Ham away and Shrewsbury sales the rest of the week now so could be tricky getting in at times to even try for Man U tickets

I reckon there won't be hardly anything anyway so not holding any hope as most would have went on Monday with the 2nd additional drop as that's not usual. Maybe one tiny drop with fuck all chance as possible with loads of others trying, but I'm cynical and pessimistic by nature  ;D

Yep, probably be a handful of returns if that.

Hi all,

After a bit of advice if possible. Thinking of becoming a member again after a couple of years away to try and get tickets. Had relied on friends to pick up the odd spare but now with the changes being talked about to exchange tickets it's going to make it more difficult.

So my question is, is it worth getting the membership now or waiting until the end of the season? How hard is it to pick up last minute spares through the official channels?

And what is it like for members with no credits in the two main sales they have before and halfway through the season.

Cheers!

If you want an accurate reflection on how difficult it is to get tickets, have a quick glance over some previous pages in this thread.

I find it’s best described as an absolute fucking nightmare. Just so you are prepared.

You’ll often have to sit at a computer screen, refreshing every one second between 8:15am and 5pm every single weekday, and on the mornings of weekend match days in the hope that a single ticket comes up. Should a ticket randomly come up during your refreshing, you’ll need to be faster than lightening itself to add it to your basket and check out.

There are of course the first time that additional sales are released. They are specified times. You’ll need 10,000 different devices and browsers to stand a chance though. Likelihood is you get an Over and Hour wait and the tickets are long gone before you get through the queue.

Hope this helps.

Also I'd imagine our recent on the field success is having somewhat of an impact on the number of returns.

Cheers! Yeah had a quick glance and it does seem frustrating. May still be worth picking up I suppose with a little luck on my side may be able to pick one up.ut won't hold my breath. As Red_Mark1980 said its only going to get harder!

For the remaining it will be very difficult as most will have previous criteria, but it's pot luck too. You may drop right in the first of the queue in an additional sale, doubtful but possible. Best bet though is the bulk sales, you should have a fair chance there, all comes down to luck and how much time and energy you are willing to put in to get a ticket.

Same. Fucking enrages me. Only game this season I've not picked up in the late availability because they did this. Literally got 11 out of 11 except United. Frustrating is not the word. Had a good system going but they killed me on these.
