How? Back in stock?

Yeah, clearly there isn't a business case for fixing the touting, same as their isn't a business case for sorting the website out. The argument for doing it would be moral and about the fan experience. It will cost the club money, at least in the short term.

You need identity checks on the supporter account as well though really, because a registered supporter presumably doesn't have to be a real person at the moment.

They should definitely have limited membership sales to a fixed time period. You could still buy 100 memberships in a month I guess.

Haven't a clue what it means in practice either.

It's a weird one because every match is full, so either there aren't that many tickets for sale or the touts take them down and do something else if they don't sell for the exorbitant price. I've never looked, say, on Live Football Tickets a few hours before the match kicks off. Are they all sold by then?

I was exaggerating.

I know what you mean, I just can't ever see us going back to paper. FWIW I'm sure their are technical solutions to this issue. I'm sure when I went to Man City game the QR code changed every hour or so on your phone, so you couldn't send the ticket to anyone else.

The club should just buy all of those, match the seat numbers and ban anyone who put one up for sale.

Most likely. Seems ambitious given the crowd would probably halve just because of the journey. We'd probably only need about 20k at Kingston Park.

Don't disagree with the general point but I don't think a CDM was ever something we wanted. And we wouldn't play with one anyway.

Sounds like we might have both.

Very good

Targett could still be a good option to go along with Hall TBH. Unless we’re signing a LB, or his injuries have finished him as a PL player.

Lovely arbitrary rules.

Excellent, well done. Interesting to know they just apply that flag without telling you

Feels like they’re keeping lots back for general sale. Might be 50%.

Yeah, didn't help me last week either, maybe because loading the saved details first had broken it or something. Who knows, it's a terrible website. Best option might be to call the club while the tickets are still in your basket. Shit I know.

Really hard fixures coming up, could be an amazing or really grim couple of weeks.

I manually typed my card details this time and it worked. I made sure all the number fields turn green as well, guess that means the number is validated. This is on Safari, I was being cautious because I got blocked at payment for Brighton tickets.

Not surprising when we're still recovering from 15 years of neglect though, is it?

True but here we have a guy proven to be able to play quite well in CF along with a problem with how to accommodate our two forwards who are both primarily LW options. Howe is always going to choose that option ahead of something he's not comfortable with doing.

This whole debate is so tiring like. Happened with nearly everyone we’ve signed and they’ve all turned out to be good

That chance he hit over the bar wasn’t that good a chance anyway. Tight angle and defenders and goalkeeper around him. If it’s the one on the YouTube highlights.

OK, let’s not have the debate about signing a second striker yet again.
