I’ve just entered ballot and selected seats and the money has come out straight away. Sorry if this has already been discussed but have I missed something?

Are you getting mixed up between ballot and general sale?

 

West Ham general sale was 10 am. Liverpool ballot doesn't open til noon today.

Forget that it was West Ham general sale.

Sorted, I was being a dick. Both owners were set as me, it normally defaults it. 

 

Phew, managed to get 2. 

 

I was about to write that you need to assign the owners but thought that was too obvious :pow:

I know we joke about this....

 

However between me and my cousin this season, we've had 1 success for every single ballot entered this season. 

 

That is a horrendous percentage.  

 

1/22 iirc? 

 

Its only our persistence and refreshing skills that means we've not missed a single game.  I know the ratio has changed in terms of what goes into ballot and what goes on general membership sale/queue, but christ. :D

1 better than me, memberships are an absolute pisstake.

I think out of everyone, those with memberships prior to the takeover have suffered most.  There is now unlimited membership and they now have the same standing as a scouse twat who buys a membership and enters the ballot for Liverpool.

Ballot results are shocking this season but tbh the resales have been much much better. I've only missed out on Liverpool this season but we all know why that queue was so big. Still believe there should be a cap on the memberships though.

 

Ballot results last season and this season below for comparison:

Stats this season are 1/9 through the ballot. I've applied for more than this time last season and unsurprisingly had less success. The poor return just means I'm applying for everything going. 

 

Too lazy to bother with resale etc. Tend to take the rejection as a sign that I should save the money.

How have you been so successful in the resale? I try every game and got nothing

Was supposed to be a 1 in 3 average last season, no idea what that has reduced to now though 

I’d imagine 1 in 6 as allocation halved with the general sale phase. 


Personally with some basic maths and assumptions thought it be 1/4-5 last season so 1/8-10 this.

Yeah the ballots are a joke this year. Think I won about 40% last year, this year I've applied for all but Liverpool and only won Wimbledon. 

 

General sale is generally doable but I'm not always free at the time it's on.

 

Resale has been weird - some weeks easy but some weeks rock hard. Convinced they turned the bot control off for Arsenal. Only got one at 11pm the evening before when 3 popped up at once. 

 

Overall I've been managing to get tickets when I want them but it has probably been even more hassle for me personally than it was last year.

Ha not sure, just get in the queue before 10 and usually get under 8000 in the queue, guaranteed a ticket.

I had a decent run managed to get Arsenal and City from the ballot.

 

It would be decent to have a better idea to the logic of it, i.e what now happens, if that's me for the season, if I will get through again in a few games etc, be decent if it all had a logic to it

As far as everyone’s aware, there’s no logic other than it being entirely random each time. So your previous successes should not mean you have any less of a chance in future ballots.

You can’t apply logic if in reality some people are applying for some games and not for others. Don’t think there is any algorithms in place. The club statement I’m guessing was based on their mathematics. Expect maybe 2-3 league games a season now if applying for 19 as a fair average. Any more you are doing well.

The resale for Brentford & Leicester are both Monday at 10am, get in early and you're guaranteed both games if you want. Queue might be bigger on Monday also due to people wanting different games.
