I don't follow the process closely, but it all strikes me as a bit strange. If someone had tried to buy last night they'd have seen "sold out", and they might not come back to check again.
Wanting to sell small quantities at a time makes sense, because...
a) It can create the illusion of scarce supply, which will motivate some to commit to a purchase.
b) From a stadium match-day management perspective, it must be easier to have people concentrated together rather than dribs and drabs spread out, should the game not sell out (this one surely will, however).
...but you'd think there'd be some sort of auto "list some more seats" thing that happens each time an existing block sells out. It shouldn't need someone to manually list a few more, if that is what is happening, as the process falls down at night and over weekends if people are not monitoring things.
Yeah I agree, should defo be more automated. I looked last night, sold out! Went back on lunchtime because I was going to buy the 4 game 'pack', that was sold out but individual ticks were available for Brum! Confused...com
