[Albion] Extra 500 Boro tickets already available

[Whitechapel]

No sympathy I'm afraid.

Tickets were on sale a long time ago, if you needed the Fulham and QPR performances / results to push you into getting a ticket at this late stage, then you don't deserve to be there IMO.

Yeah, I don't deserve to go because I wasn't sure if I'd be in the country until last week.

Absolutely disgraceful if they were available before 9am. Like others I was online at 9 but didn't get a sniff.

I didn't log in until 9. I went straight into the queueing system.

Personal circumstances can change between then and now. Don't be a dick.

Did you actually log in? It has said sold out for over a week.

Now says Sold Out to the additional allocation as well - think that's what trouble is referring to.

I tried in 2 different browsers from 8:45 onwards whilst refreshing. They still didn't appear Fuming!

Lots of people missed out first time around. And others, like me, couldn't commit back then as going means a major reshuffle of plans, seriously pissing off a long-standing client and foregoing work to the tune of hundreds of pounds (before I'd even have got started on the price of tickets and travel). But I'm sure you're a far more committed fan than me so thanks for the opinion.

That is total bollocks. I can't stand it when fans question other fans right to be there. If you support the Albion and you can get a ticket then you deserve to be there. Don't play the "I've more right to be there than you" card when you know nothing about other fan's histories with the Albion.

Yep sure can, but doesn't stop you buying a ticket for potentially the clubs biggest game in years and then selling it on if 'circumstances' mean you can't attend.

I get it that a small minority of fans have had a change of circumstance over the past couple of weeks, but I'm also aware the larger majority of fans have simply left it too late and now seem 'hard done by' that they can't get a ticket.

Even if that view were valid - it's not, it's b******* - are you absolutely sure that everyone who wanted a ticket first time around could get one? Because I know several people who missed out.

You sanctimonious prick

Keep your panties on girls , Harrys late in after partying all night with a panda so its just Beryl on her own answering the calls at the moment and she cant find the refresh buy ticket option button.

 

[Munchkin]

Well tickets were still available after we won at Birmingham and were readily available for the week leading up to the game.

As I've said, I appreciate the fact some supporters situations have changed and I feel for those that now can't get a ticket, but you have to appreciate the lack of sympathy for those that now want a ticket off the back of recent performances / results.

This isn't about being a better fan than anyone.

I know many fans who are in this position that "don't deserve to be there" even though they have been to 10+ away games this season. A lot of fans (me included) only found out last week that they could go, so i'm sorry to say but you are talking rubbish.

I was in the queueing system with 13 ahead of me.

 

[Seasidesage]

I haven't been able to get one either time despite having 1140 points. What is the point of a loyalty scheme if it isn't used. The jump was massive between the two barriers last time 1250 down to 1050 and this time it was ST holders only, both times it came down to the speed of your internet connection nothing more. Seems they have no problem selling me a ticket for Brum midweek or Forest but the big game is a bloody free for all...

I got a ticket first time round but you sound like a right nob...as far as I recall they were sold out before the latest 2 home games you quote in your first post

Try now , Harry is back .

 

[kingcole]

Does anyone think that not all the 500 have been made available? It does say they go on sale on the phones and in person at 2pm so maybe some were kept back for this.

I logged on a couple of minutes before 9. Had to queue for a minute. Got in. Went all the way to ' buy' screen. Got all the ' unavailability ' issues that early posters mentioned. Kept starting again at the ticket page and managed to buy a ticket at 9. 09.

So the system was obviously jammed up and not working quite correctly but it took at least ten minutes to sell out.
