No chance. When it gets to members it'll go quick. I'm waiting until Tuesday and I'm really sweating it.

I think I read somewhere there’s a away fan ticket cap for Europa League similar to Prem.

Assuming they have split T1 and T2 roughly 50/50, it looks like only about 1/3rd of those with enough points and pre-registered have actually bought so far.
The club saying T1/T2 are guaranteed tickets if they buy before 9am Monday takes the pressure off a bit... but it does seem quite 'steady'.

There will be some on window 1 waiting for window 2 so was expecting between 25% and 35% to go in morning and then around 50 to 60% to go in afternoon.
At the moment about 16% have gone
Here's another vlog from the Spurs game. Unfortunately doesn't show anything in town pre-game, but does mention a very long and hot bus ride - presumably the same we're supposed to take.
Also gives an idea of the view from the top tier.

Yeah, it's not £26 though. It's capped at €45. I assume we've come to a reciprocal agreement and are charging €30 for away fans at the Amex.

I spoke to the ticket office late last week as I have not pre-registered, as originally I couldn’t make this date, but now I can. The guy on the phone said preregistration was just to gauge interest and not a requirement to buy tickets, he was clearly talking out of his hat. I’m tier 1 and I’m hoping this might go to those that didn’t preregister if we don’t sell out the preregistrations. I think there is a fear growing around this one and the club statement is probably not helping.
It's hard to tell as we don't know the split between T1 / T2. I'd have thought T2 would be bigger, can't imagine there are as many people on 308+ as there are between 230 and 307? T2 looks like a huge slice. But maybe there are, who knows.
I just hope there aren't lots of people on higher points who pre-registered with no intention of going, as it will have prevented those on the margins moving up a tier (*I know some will have unavoidable clashes or change of plans, not talking about them).
I don't think we'll struggle to sell out though. There are lots waiting for T3+ to open from Monday onwards. Good luck to everyone!

So do i take it from this that you would have been in the 9 am window this morning if you had preregistered and also that you actually tried to see if you could buy a ticket and the system would not let you ?

We will have a much clearer picture after the 2 pm window has been open for about half an hour.

For those flying on Wednesday.. looks like there's going to be strike action affecting the trains to the airport

New train drivers' strike to coincide with Conservative Party conference in Manchester
The Aslef union said the government had "forced us into this position" as the transport secretary criticised what he called the "politically motivated" industrial action.

Thanks to everyone for keeping us updated. I’m at Monday at 2pm with fingers crossed. I have a cancellable hotel booking and a flight strategy involving several airports but won’t buy those until I know I can see the game. It’s all VERY exciting. It’s just begun to dawn on Mrs Corner that I am away quite a bit in the next couple of weeks - and that’s before the potential 3 day jaunt to France

So around 2680 remaining as at 10, under 700 bought?
If that reflects the upper points tally interested in going then perhaps I do have a chance of Ajax, I thought double that would go in the early stages of the first window. Will be interesting to see the situation following the second at 2pm

So my window to buy is from 2pm on Monday, but both my boys can buy from 9am Monday. This is despite me paying for all the tickets.
For simplicity, I have held the same seat as a season ticket since the Amex opened … (my season ticket history goes back well beyond then but hey ho).
Apparently in a classic case of ‘computer says no’ my season ticket record states that I cancelled my season ticket for one year in the 2015-16 season … except I didn’t!! And they say they are unable to correct it.
So now both my boys can buy at 9am and I have to hope that I can grab one at 2pm.
I tried to escalate this but was just told to send an email to supporter services who ‘will get back to me within 5 working days’
.
Fully accept the points system gives priority others (and rightly so) but had hoped I would at least be put in the correct place in the queue.
