Yep, ditto. I'm anticipating about 1.30pm I'll get to the front, by which time all tickets will have gone

Surely, being a World Cup, they can have a system in place that can process a lot more tickets at a time? Ok fair enough, if i joined the queue too late, I accept I won't get tickets - would just be nice to find that fact out sooner than what will probably be over 3 hours!

Joined the on-line queue at 08:30, was looking hopeful at 09:30 as 3/4 way loaded but has barely moved since! Not expecting much now.....
Anyone know if I can still sell my tix through the website, or will I now have to tout them? I got Eng v Wales for my dad and me, but he's unfortunately died, and I don't want to go now - will just be a bit too hard. Obviously, I'm not going to upload them right now, as it'll presumably take me as long to log in as it is you guys...
I would imagine Glastonbury has a similar amount of traffic when tickets are first released and they sell 250,000 in quarter of an hour, I can only assume this ticketing set up sells far less per hour as surely tickets would be sold out by now.
I've got to about 10 past, I hold out no hope of getting anything, the WC will be finished by the time I get to log in.
Sad news but understandable that you no longer wish to go. I'm sure there are a number of NSC users who would gladly purchase the tickets, maybe a bidding auction with the profit going to the REMF.

Really sorry to hear that, and totally understand you not wanting to go. I would say, hang on to them for now, you might feel differently nearer the time. You will always be able to sell them somewhere, right up to kick off if you wanted to sell. ATB.

I'm going to have a restless night tonight thinking about this graphic that seems to have stagnated...

If they've sold all the WSM tickets they've done very well, priced at somewhat over £300 a pop that's got to be a cool £2M worth of sales.

just got in after 6 hours wait. Plenty of tickets remaining but none at Amex as per previous posts. All Overpriced. Should at least stave off touts since they can't make a turn at those prices except for Biggest matches
