Bellis80 Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 Baffling how they gave a full day today for about 400 people to buy a ticket. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 There’s no fair way except a totally random ballot really. Even the idea that ST holders are more loyal is a bit silly, especially given the Ashley era. Just wish Wembley held 200k. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the Ashley thing is what it is is, so I accept it clouds the issue here. But it’s not a silly idea otherwise, and pretty much every club bases their allocation of cup final tickets on the basis that season ticket holders deserve first go at getting them.

LFEE Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 I’ll post an update around 11pm as I wouldn’t expect much change from then until the morning. Anyone wanting screen grabs of specific blocks to see the seats I’ll post them if asked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 Cheers lads Expected it to look a bit different by now. I know of people waiting for later phases so they can be grouped together, even a few who were eligible in phase 1 waiting for the ballot! Wouldn't be me. Guessing there's quite a few holding back till tomorrow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand that a random ballot strips out any question of bias, but is that right in itself? If you’ve got someone who’s been to every game for the last 20 years, surely they deserve some bias over someone who’s been to a couple of games? You can go on forever like and never come to a completely satisfactory conclusion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geogaddi Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 Not all that fussed where I sit but what Is the general consensus on the seats to avoid the most? The ones up top? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vedder Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 My worst seats are the ones directly square on to the goal line, particularly low down. Shite view of the goal nearest to you, still far away from the other end. But these tickets are in category 2! Save your money and sit in the cheap seats.

I think about 20-28 didn’t go on sale, so presumably staff/corporate ones held back by the club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve just clicked on all the blocks and they are predominantly empty up above with 532-533 popular I’m guessing as good angle for us lifting the trophy 🏆📸 if the lift is in the North 😆 Lower bowl also plenty of availability but behind the goal clearly the most popular. If you want safe standing very few in 132-134 so best to head to 135 first. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Difficult to say without going in to every single section. The ones by the halfway line that are completely gone look like they hold about 700ish. As @LFEEsays some at the top are virtually completely free. Bit of guess, but definitely less than 10k gone. Probably closer to 5k. If I get really, really bored later I might try and do a proper count. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
