Well done mate. Youre probably most deserving based on your posts here haha

Mate, i just need to get to 13 this season (18 hopefully) and then get in CL autocup scheme and then you'll never hear from me again, as my life will be a doddle, haha.

[scouser102002]

Everton sale begins on Monday, 3 games I have to try for tickets for at the same time, just madness

If successful in the bulks, that could be best part of £700 shelling out in the space of a week!

As much as this site has helped me along the way, to not have to monitor it and post would be the dream!!… If I happen to be extremely lucky in the bulk next Thursday that would do it for me too so i'm praying!!!

could be a very costly week... still working on my explanation to the missus just in case haha

It’s funny I still use my routine from when it wasn’t random, I’m mugging myself of really by getting up that extra hour early. Still do it just on the hope they forget to do it random one day 😂.

This! I’m exactly the same but I’ve not got anything less than ‘over an hour’ for the last two seasons in the league sales

[Red_Irishman]

I couldn't believe I got 3 minutes this morning. I nearly collapsed. I had refreshed it well into 8.15 and it still showed the site down. Then instantly it changed to 3 min que. Real time waited about 2 minutes.

So many red blocks it was like all the Christmases came at once.

That’s great, made up for you!

So you literally pressed the refresh button just before 8:15 on the queue page and it put you in the queue for less than 3 minutes haha

Yes mate, proves its completely random I suppose. First time with anything less than "over an hour".

3/4 available to me so far which is great. Couldn't be done without the help of other users though. Good to see fans looking after each other.

Yeah definitely, this site and it’s users are a big help

Well in la

Right in thinking that with bulk sake on the go returns for Brighton will be Monday or Friday next week at the earliest?

Everton is on Monday then the bulks. Could be some after Everton on Monday, but think I’m gonna concentrate from next Friday onwards. Presumably the local sale will be Monday 25th for Brighton.

[Red_Irishman]

Will the Brighton game be up at all tomorrow with the ambulant disabled supporters sale on throughput the day?

I’m guessing not and I’m after one

Was showing suspended today

In the same boat as you for leagues, but fortunate enough to get in the autocup for all 3 cups (in the kop as well).

Unfortunately getting in the auto cup means fuck all in terms of loyalty for future years. Still a scrap at the start of the season to actually remain in the scheme for European Cup at least.

Why is that mate? I thought being in the autocup and attending the games guarantees you a ticket for the following season. Is the criteria different for the European Cup?

This year it was not guaranteed to get on the auto cup for CL  - Many with full credits from last season were left disappointed.

[RainbowFlick]

There are less autocup tickets than people on full CL credits. I think it’s mainly down to UEFA/sponsors taking more tickets and the club needing to hold back just to be sure.

There are subsequent individual match sales but progressively gets harder the further we go.

[Barrowred]

This year it was not guaranteed to get on the auto cup for CL  - Many with full credits from last season were left disappointed.

There will be even more disappointed next season unless they add additional criteria.

It was the same for the year before as well.

[dudleyred]

Did any Brighton go on sale when they reappeared?

[JasonR55]

Nope, none

[Red_Irishman]

That's it for the weekend then.

[dudleyred]

Nope, none

Ok cheers

Was worried I’d missed some

[gordo]

I got a Kop 204 next to my mate. Then I woke up. I’m not confident for any 3pm kick offs - holding out for hope for the games over christmas to get me to atleast 4.

[ScubaSteve]

They need to give STHs the similar rights as members. STH still to be given an opportunity to join the ACS at the start of the season but if they don’t join then they need to build up the criteria like the rest of us for the following seasons.

Most STHs will probably join every season but there’ll be some who’ll dip in and out

I agree, never understood why they do that.

The loyalty for members could be addressed better as well. I agree about the closed shop issue but people with multiple seasons worth of history shouldn't be overlooked either.

They 100% need to add an additional criteria. Should have had one for this season but didn't.

Peter Moores defence was that "nothing has changed" from the season prior in terms of ACS places and refused to acknowledge that more people had credits than in previous seasons.

The ACS sale should start with full credits from the last 2-3 european campaigns and filter as it does with aways. Will that happen? No. Will it be raised at "fan forums" or other forms of supporter engagements? No.

The "in" people will favour the "in" people. Everyone elses concerns are thrown out the window. It's happened season after season now and I'm not expecting it to change any time soon.

[scouser102002]

They struggled to sell Salzburg and Genk as it is, add additional criteria and the ground would be empty!

I'd imagine following Kiev people realised the ballot entry requirements and went to all games and/or credit hunted accordingly, hence the increased number of people on full credits this season? I can only really guess.

Like you say though it should be tiered. Very easy to get bumped off as it is but in fairness the CL ladder is probably one that's achievable with some effort and luck from zero.

ACS doesn't guarantee you a ticket in the final

ACS doesn't guarantee you a ticket in the final

Which is why I said it gave you a chance in the ballot

[Alf]

The reason they couldn't guarantee everyone with 6 home credits a ticket in the CL this season is because Red Star Belgrade didn't take their away allocation last year.

[scouser102002]

They couldn't guarantee everyone last year though before the Red Star situation

The reason is UEFA and sponsors take up to 3,000 more tickets for the later rounds

Hi folks - had a couple questions on the upcoming 21/11 member sale, looking specifically at the 7/3 Bournemouth match.

- is the 8:15 start time GMT or BST?
- are memberships required for each ticket holder? i.e. if I am a member and bring my mate who is not one, would that present any issues?

Cheers!

Both need a membership and GMT

[Red_Irishman]

I'll be trying the 21st too. If I get a low time and got in reasonably early I assume its best to target Villa straight away considering its a free for all? Never got a thing in the first sale so have no experience unfortunately.

You just basket one by one and then check out?

Yes mate. Basket one, click on '+Add more to your basket',  basket another, click on '+Add more to your basket', basket another etc etc then checkout.

Thanks pal. What was does the bounce backs work for it then? Does there be tickets popping up for an hour orr two after the start time?

In this sale, when they're gone, they're gone.
