Well that was painless. Logged on at 9, no Queue It and tickets purchased. Does this mean the new system has greater capacity or is it that hardly anyone wants to go?

Probably a bit of both!
I have the points for City but can't go, but don't have the points for Watford until tomorrow so will be on then.
They probably have increased capacity on the site, but people in top tiers know they have all day to log in.
Tomorrow morning may be a bit busier!

Might be disappointing to some who need to suggest hardly anyone wants to go, but how about the third option- everyone is guaranteed one on day one so no need to clog the system at 9am?
All will be revealed later tonight how ticket sales are going, if you can wait that long.

At least they have the better blocks available early doors. Unlike for City last year.

only 981 available online now... surely 2000+ haven't sold already??
Only 2130 available. Sorry didnt realise you meant City.
I expect they will hold some back.

It was a doddle this morning. Logged on at 9.15am so as to give those with 6 or 7 devices the chance to log themselves in on all devices and I went straight in. All seems quicker and smoother than last season so it’s a thumbs up from me.
There was no queue this morning.

I think that has always been the case as they set the level of loyalty points depending on the ticket allocation. So everyone in the declared points tier can get a ticket before it is opened up to others tiers. Has there ever been a case where someone in the top tier has not been able to get a ticket before the window for the second tier opens?
No, everyone in tier 1 is able to get a ticket on day 1.
The slight rush at 9am is from those that want to either sit towards the front or want an aisle seat, etc now that you are able to select your seat.
I was expecting a meltdown this morning with the new site, and the release of the first 3 home games, but pleased to see zero issues. Hopefully this stays the same for the rest of the season.
Got Man City. Won’t bother with Watford this year.
Will this see the end of the “sit where I like” brigade?
It should do, but I imagine it won’t. No excuse for not sitting where you selected, knowing that someone else actually wanted to sit in the seat you’ve decided to occupy instead.
Straight in, no queue, all done in 2 mins.

Don't care about a little musical chairs, it's the selfish c0ckwombles trying to get 8 fans into 5 spaces that cause the grief.
This. Every game.
