So presumably some people started queueing way before 9am. Who admits to being the earliest?
I went on at 8.45 to check my Everton and Ajax points had been added and got immediately bunged in a queue, having had to do an impossible captcha to get that far. There were 3800 ahead of me!!!!!

Grrrrr. People plan around this. I'm normally done at 9.01am.

That captcha is going to be super frustrating when trying to buy limited tickets for future games.

Needs to go. It'll be because our DNS prevention thinks there's a spam attack if you refresh the page too often looking for returns.

A huge sledgehammer to crack a tiny nut. FFS take control of the code and get a contractor in for a couple of days to write and test a basket emptying routine. My son could probably do it.

It is clearing down quick now presumably as those after home tickets are done and dusted.

Good to see all the bed wetters have caused this dreadful queue thing. FFS.
More like the club stamping their feet at the audacity for anyone to dare suggest they screwed up repeatedly on the ticket front. That'll show 'em. Pathetic.

So finally in, and the amount of tickets sold would indicate that for T1 there was no requirement for a queuing system.

I can understand that a solution to the ticket hoarding is needed, but it would seem that the cheaper option was taken and imposed it on all levels, rather than from the crossover from T1 to T2, and downwards.

Looking forward to the queuing system for Brentford, Luton, Bournemouth where the tickets are unlikely to reach T2.

Here's a 'Did you know' fact whilst I'm waiting.
That box you tick sometimes to say you're not a robot. You'd have thought a robot could tick it but google works out your mouse tracking leading up to ticking the box.
If you go in a straightish line that means you're not a robot.
Still 1 minute to go.

Done. Plenty left but once again a the best block is not on sale day one.
