I think you should collect the ticket and prove that you live in Liverpool even for the local member sale...

Took long to refresh. Bang 20 minute wait. Clicked the cross

Yeah defo agree, I still think photo ID on a members card for locals

I remember the first season of the local sales, it was so easy to pick up a ticket. Now everyone knows about it even the people not that arsed about going

Not a chance today. No luck in any locals this year. Seems impossible.

I got 15 2 seasons ago, 11 last season and I’m in about 2 so far...so difficult! For £9 every man and their dog is going for a ticket. Coz they’re so cheap I won’t pay full price for a prem ticket until after the local sales finish, but even the late members sales are a lot worse

.....and prove you are that person at the turnstile, thereby making sure the local members sales tickets are being used in the way they are supposed to be.

Shanklygates · « **Reply #1207 on:** November 10, 2018, 12:42:57 pm »

Totally agree

Surely nobody would mine that? Most people have some sort of ID on them anyway, and if you know. And there aren't that many, so as people have said before, f they go in one of two allocated turnstiles, wouldn't take that long.

Given they're only paying £9, I can't see anyone minding a few extra checks - that way they are more likely to get tickets for other games too, if they are used as intended.

Makes me so sick when you hear stories of them touted to tourists etc.

courty61 · « **Reply #1208 on:** November 15, 2018, 05:10:25 pm »

It's such an easy win. 1 turnstile for u1. 1 for u9.

Even insist you have to be in earlier than say 30 mins before ko. St 9 quid a ticket people will be more willing to spend money at the bar

Winckle · « **Reply #1209 on:** November 26, 2018, 07:48:13 am »

Good luck everyone. May your queue times be under 2 minutes. (And even then you probably can't beat the bots)

Rico4k · « **Reply #1210 on:** November 26, 2018, 08:00:10 am »

Haven't been able to get on my pc for a while.

During the Cardiff sale, the website wouldn't let me click past the red squares for u1 or u9 and I was still trying it for an hour iirc. (No tickets)

Totally forgot about the Fulham sale (expected a Monday sale instead)

Good luck to all for today.

Rico4k · « **Reply #1211 on:** November 26, 2018, 08:17:20 am »

less than 45 mins

bruffell06 · « **Reply #1212 on:** November 26, 2018, 08:17:49 am »

Both of my tabs never refreshed until 8.17. Now I've got a 45 mins wait time on both...

Winckle · « **Reply #1213 on:** November 26, 2018, 08:18:38 am »

Mine didn't refresh till 8.17. Already sold out.

Sold out in 60 seconds.

Tell me that isn't bots.

Claire. · « **Reply #1214 on:** November 26, 2018, 08:19:22 am »

mine didn't either, they fucked it up at 7.15 and the queue didn't go on til 17 mins past.

ant · « **Reply #1215 on:** November 26, 2018, 08:19:49 am »

says limited, i got 22 min wait !

ant · « **Reply #1216 on:** November 26, 2018, 08:21:14 am »

says SOLD OUT after 4min

ScubaSteve · « **Reply #1217 on:** November 26, 2018, 08:22:51 am »

I have no chance....less than hour. I miss the first season of local sales when it was only known to those who kept tabs on the clubs progress. Pretty much guaranteed that whole season

If you don’t get in after a 2 min wait you’re lucky to get 2 tickets

Rico4k · « **Reply #1219 on:** November 26, 2018, 08:24:23 am »

Gotta love friends and family part of ticket sales. I'm still in a queue and my work colleague has got me a ticket in the sales using said option.

courty61 · « **Reply #1220 on:** November 26, 2018, 08:24:33 am »

Got 4 mins at 815. Said sold out.

Dropped to 3mins and said good. Obviously didn't realise the tickets when que opened

Couldn't agree more. I missed one home game that season in all comps.

ScubaSteve · « **Reply #1222 on:** November 26, 2018, 08:28:10 am »

It’s back to the late members availability for me!! Not missed a derby in years

courty61 · « **Reply #1223 on:** November 26, 2018, 08:28:43 am »

I blame the BBC with their price of football piece

sharkeyb · « **Reply #1224 on:** November 26, 2018, 08:44:41 am »

Straight in and the tickets weren't on sale. They only went up at about 817

Managed to get 4 together and another single

Rico4k · « **Reply #1225 on:** November 26, 2018, 08:45:28 am »

So, I got in less than 45 mins and a few tickets appeared. But it's too bloody fiddly trying to select seats on the phone.

ScubaSteve · « **Reply #1226 on:** November 26, 2018, 09:08:59 am »

It’s still letting you sellect a block..there’s a phantom ticket

Someone at the club definitely reads the posts here

stevo7 · « **Reply #1227 on:** November 26, 2018, 09:20:42 am »

Hope all non-liverpool residents are turfed out and all the accounts at the addresses selling the tickets blocked.

Can't remember last derby I missed.

keano7 · « **Reply #1228 on:** November 26, 2018, 09:38:15 am »

Girlfriend managed to get me one this morning whilst I’m away. She got a 2 min wait whereas I got 28 mins which soon jumped to 50 mins. Complete luck of the draw if you manage to get one but was definitely a lot easier in the last two seasons.

Report it! Clearly NOT a disabled ticket all the way up there. Obviously a local tkt sold on.

ScubaSteve · « **Reply #1232 on:** December 2, 2018, 07:06:16 pm »

What were the local sections like today? Any blue noses, tourists etc??

scouser102002 · « **Reply #1233 on:** December 2, 2018, 07:19:01 pm »

Well if the club are actually serious about stopping touts then that person will never be able to buy a ticket again.

scouser102002 · « **Reply #1234 on:** December 2, 2018, 07:19:41 pm »

Was always going to fuel touts, the £9 tickets.

The chance to make a lot of money too much for some, local or not.

I reported that. Mike's going "to take the necessary action against this account holder". Good job the guy posted the details!!

The crazy thing is it probably happens every week, just this week the lad has 3,000 followers so because the tweet was originally liked and retweeted it shown up on a ‘Liverpool’ twitter search.

Shanklygates · « **Reply #1237 on:** December 2, 2018, 08:24:43 pm »

I agree. The 2 STs next to me have been sold on for hundreds every game for 3 seasons now.I have told them but no change so far. Meanwhile mates can't get tkts. Really pisses me off so I will report any tout.

A few empty seats in U1 near me. I think there might have been one or two blues in but no bother at all.

courty61 · « **Reply #1239 on:** December 3, 2018, 05:47:07 pm »

Sometimes empty seats mean people are in but are elsewhere

That Twitter feed says the tout had more
