Same thing happened to me when trying to buy my dad's membership

Interesting, let me know how you get on. My dad's still waiting to get back in. Wondering if it's something to do with him being classed as a pensioner. 

My dad got in just after 10am, went to buy but said his age wasn't verified. Checked his personal details and his age is in there. Subsequntley has been booted and now back at the back of the queue bless him. Anyone else ran into anything like that? 

(also I was number 94 in the queue at 10am. Fuming I got that for membership but was 9000 odd for season tickets)

So this year we can go to the match alone?

 You can tie as many support ID's to your account as you like, meaning (so long as both ID's are members) you could log in and buy a ticket for each member at one time.

If Willock could sort out his passing, he’d be a nailed on starter imo. Currently though he seems like a player more suited to counter-attacking play or as a decent impact sub.

Agree. Bruno's winning goal v Leicester highlighted both the good and bad of Willock. Bags of running, especially against already tired legs. And a good idea of what he actually needed to do, but still, he was lucky his cross deflected perfectly into Bruno's path. Could've gone anywhere after hitting the defender. 

Feel like there was a good chunk of time between Bruno being called 'done' by the media, and actual confirmation from the club. Chill lads, people like Romano would be all over it if it was going tits up.

Can't tell if the 'very worrying' posts are for real. Given how transfer season is don't you think any sort of major hiccup would've leaked by now? 

Guessing everyone on now sees the same three sections available, but when clicking in it says no tickets available?

As someone who has never bought a ticket an individual match ticket for years, do you have to be member to buy them? Or just have a supporter number?

Pre-takeover you'd have no trouble getting one without being a member. From jan onwards that was pretty much impossible.

How high is it going to be able to get tickets? I was 5,000-something and it timed out because of my call.. I just want to know I had no chance anyway..

My number is 9858 and I am still waiting now. You may have been in the 'refresh and hope for the best' crowd.

By refreshing or?

Yeah, appeared sold out for a good 5 minutes or so, refreshed and suddenly I could click buy. Assume someone had it in there basket and it timed out or something.

Keep trying if you're in and getting the Maintenance, I just got one back stand of Gallowgate in the middle that appeared. Appears some people with them in basket are dropping out and the tickets are becoming available again? I was #1670 in queue.

 

 

 

Very true, a sliver of hope remains. I bascially got a hold of a PS5 when they first went live this way.

So if you had tickets under rafa binned they, you weren’t a priority, but you started going under Bruce you’re priortitzed? Sorry like but that’s a complete joke. Essentially rewarding people for complying under Ashley. I was at Villa away in 09, but that doesn’t qualify me? Garbage imo 

They had to come up with a way that prioritised actual fans, rather than alienating them. Putting criteria in place that basically only made it possible for a tiny number of the hardcore fanbase to get a hold of a ticket would just have pissed more people off. I say that as someone who is essentially in the same position as you.

So we all agree it should have been a ballot system instead?

This is a ballot system. 

Now over 1500 people through the queue with no sell out notifications from the club or rumbling on Twitter. 

Almost 1000 people through the queue now. Should get an idea soon of just how many people are purchasing. Sold out could come any moment.

lowest I have is 9858, highest is 26637.

The call starts dead on 10am as if they really want to hurt me. 

Sounds mental but you could try explaining the situation. Wouldn't have had the guts myself in the same position, but knowing my manager the way I do now I know he would have absolutely understood and told me to go for it.

Is the queue ID at the bottom of the page on each device different? 

Different on the two devices I am using.

In a twisted way I hope I miss out based on queue number because it'd be way more gutting if I miss out because I can't multitask while on a work call.

Aye, I feel the same. I hope my number is either super low, or some daft 25,000+ number so I know where I stand straight away.

Just now, geordie_b said:

More inclined to say the opposite. You’ll need to be way under 1000 as you can buy multiple tickets

Thought they said it was one per eligible supporter number?

Looks like we'll follow this up with Raphinha and Ekiteke. We are top four competitors this season chaps.

Pass that crack pipe when you're finished with it.

If I get one, only likely to make 10 games. Suspect others may be in a similar position… .

It would be cheaper to just buy a membership and go game by game surely?

Just now, SteV said:

If everyone’s logging in on multiple devices then I’d imagine the queue numbers are going to be vastly inflated from the actual number of people in the queue?

Aye, as someone already mentioned. Don't be too disheartned if you're give a high (over 1000) number. Should thin out a little before it gets to you. That being said, if I have a number up over 20,000 it's probably curtains.

Imagine being assigned place number 1 in the queue.

 

There’d be so much jizz flying onto my computer that the keyboard would be kaput and I’d not be able to complete the transaction. 

 

Might wrap the laptop in a protective layer of cling film now, just to be on the safe side 

Anything under 500 and I will need the kleenex.

Seems to be working ?

Nice. So assuming it is 1000 tickets should be pretty obviously immediately how much of a chance you have. Anything up past 1200 and it's not likely. Worse case scenario is any number close to 1000. Relying on people missing their slot, having a last minute change of heart, or just being there for the shit show.
