2 points short... hugely unlikely I'll get a ticket for this one (surprising since I got an Arsenal ticket too)
Back up to 371 non-disabled seats available, plus plenty of WC and ambulant disabled.
Again. No way we've sold 2,600.
Suggest club managed allocation throughout the window.
Doubt any are specifically held back for day two but just cannot see the clamour for this one being more than Arsenal.
You would think with a Friday night ko and on the telly it would not sell out day one. But many like me want to tick off the new ground element.
I've always assumed that the variability of tickets showing available in the early days (first couple of hours, say) is partly due to people putting them in their basket and then removing them (perhaps to try to find "better" seats - I know I do this - perhaps the ones removed are not immediately released back for sale, but come on again after, say, 30 mins?), &/or people not finishing their transaction and the tickets being released automatically after 20 mins?
It has gone up from 201 earlier to over 550 now (including 319 in section 219)... so it seems to be more than just people putting tickets in baskets?
I've just exchanged a quick correspondence with the club.
The first tier is always set such that everyone who has the required number of loyalty points will get a ticket on the day of sale, should they wish to get one.
This means, of course, unless absolutely everyone who qualifies for a ticket buys one, there will be a second phase of sales (where there is no guarantee of a ticket).
Good to hear, although it does take away the fun of signing in at about 8.30 and waiting to see what number in the queue you are when it ticks 9am.

That was the same situation as I was in! I mangaged to get a Bmuff ticket for tonight so hopefully the points will go on tomorrow before tickets go on sale.
Are you going to the game though...that is the question!
