Oh no, only a 1 hour turnaround from notification to the window opening 🤣🤣 This is how it should be done for all games to be fair.

So basically the issue isn't that there is a queue, it's only that the landing page for the queue only mentions Brighton tickets 🤣🤣 1st world problems etc etc etc

But then you know there's 24 hours to be able to enter the ballot, regardless of the Brighton sale, there's always a queue as soon as the ballots go live as everyone wants to enter asap 🤷

Never understood why people scramble to enter the ballot as soon as it's open, then moan that there's a queue to get in 🤣

Three seats sorted for us, plenty dotted around the stadium showing now

First ballot success for us, applied for 3 together 🤷

Sense at last

🤣

Sorry 🍕

Exactly this Do people really think that he's going to do an interview on SSN and say fuck palace I'm off 🤣🤣

Tune in at 5 and we'll string you along with more rumours and "our sources say" nonsense 🤣

Same result but now they tell you 🤦

Definitely a positive change as far as I'm concerned, hit and miss with the ballot but still 100% via the "general" sale random queue setup 🤣

as expected

First ballot failure of the season for me 🤣

There's plenty of time to enter it like, I'm sure it will be fixed soon 🤣

No idea then, it just works for me. It's the same as it was all last season, the link to the ballot is under the account menu. More teething troubles it would appear

and once you have applied sucessfully, when you click the "ballot" option at the top you see

You access the ballot from the "ballot" link under your account icon, and not the "ballot" heading at the top of the page

No issues at all, both members and applied for ballot

If they don't change that you can buy tickets on behalf of others then I would say that your scenario would work. Both enter and are successful, then one of you logs on and buys two seats together, but in separate transactions. It's a gamble but "should" work 🤷 Then again, thinking about it, you'd probably have to logon to each account separately and buy the ticket. A bit fiddly but possible to work it.

So with this new way of running the ballot, it looks like there will still be a mad rush once the 48 hours starts, for those successful. Will be interesting to see how it works out

Yeh, but this year they are saying there's a members general sale, as well as a resale 🤷 at least that's how I read it. To be fair this time last year we had little idea how it would all work once live, and they did tweak and change things, so who knows.

It says that you have 48 hours to buy the tickets "winning" the ballot Any that don't get paid for will be put on general members only sale

And a return to the ticket queuing system for a members general sale for any left 👍 Seems to be a good compromise so far.
