It's not as bad as people think. You have to try come back, tickets come up over the couple of hours after they go on sale. I forgot they were on sale today and joined at 10am, just 5mins ago got one for Luton. It's best to use the find seats for me. Last time I joined an hour later and got one that way. I'm sure they allocate seats in batches rather than all at once.

That just sounds like a random success getting a single ticket but the actual main sale process has become totally carnage. The worst thing is when you choose apparently available seats only to be told they are not available. There is also that horrible screen that gives the impression that you have lost your place when you haven't.

It's just because it gets bombarded by people and they constantly refresh the page. It's just caused by the fans and it's also nothing to do with the club either as it's an external ticket company running it. There's not a lot can be done. To be honest I've always found a fair number available on exchange as well. Any games outside the massive ones should be attainable if you try over time or failing that the exchange.

What do you reckon the chance of me getting 2 together for Luton are? (want to take my 8 year old again, so would have to be together)

Cheers,

Well done

although tbh I’m scratching my head at this

what is the point of being a Hotspur+ member if tickets are held beck for the level below?

yesterday it was impossible to get two tickets together anywhere in the entire stadium for the forest game

Biggest benefit is a place on the season ticket queue I think. That's the only reason I have it

It's not much better as far as ticket sales go. There's only a small allocated amount in that window anyway and there are far more members than the allocation. I was going to downgrade to One Hotspur for that reason but they don't allow to switch so would have had to cancel and lose all loyalty points so it's a bit stupid.

I don't really know how the ticketing works but I'm sure like anything else on Ticketmaster they allocate batches at a time to manage the load. I've always found tickets can still come up several hours later after it showed sold out previously. Just need to be patient I think and come back every now and then rather than constantly refreshing.

Cheers,

If you check regularly once the exchange opens up youll have no problem. Closer to the game a lot more pop up so if you dont grab two straight away i wouldn't worry about it either.

Got two tickets together for the following games this season only chelsea and liverpool pre exchange which is surprising considering they wouldve been higher in demand you wouldve thought:

Sheff United
Liverpool
Man U
Chelsea
Newcastle
Everton (got 4 for this)
Brighton

Wanting to get Luton and not expecting any issues!

Now that im looking at that list (i didnt go to chelsea when they moved it to Monday night so got a refund) i think if i go to the rest of the games this season we should be safely in the top 4...

That's the thing with those games selling prior to the TV schedule. You'll always get people who commit to a ticket but may have to change if it gets moved for TV. Also Luton is Easter period so plans can always change for that one. Then you probably have season ticket holders who sell as well. I do agree it's harder to get on the first sale window than it used to be but more often than not if you want a ticket you can get one. The NLD is the one I just couldn't get last season but other than that got every game I've wanted. It's just stressful if you really want to get one and then you join the queue and feel panicky trying to pick one before they go. Have to try and be calm.

Agree but since missing out for all but the Burnley game I managed to get two on the exchange for Bournemouth and two again for brentford

And there aren’t any pairs (yet) for Brighton, wolves or palace.
Hopefully this will change but it does require a degree of flexibility closer to the time.
It’s fair enough, and we watch them on tv whenever we can.
might get a fire stick instead

when it comes to ST renewal time, what are the chances of two together becoming available?
Snowball in hell?

Think the normal renewal rate each year is around 95% , on that basis each year should be approx 3000 non renewals so there is always a chance, a lot will depend on do we make CL next season.

I do check a lot when im after thise tickets thats for sure! Checking the "find tickets for me" option as others have said when theyre in the direct sale, is better than clicking through the map i find.

Good luck for those games, now that there arent so many games left everyone may be trying to get down for one more game before the painful footballess summer.

Starting to shit myself about the lack of tix coming up for Brighton and Wolves. Coming halfway round the world so can’t fck it up. Not paying 310 a pop for the posh seats either.

Hold my nerve or run off to Stubhub and the like? How do so many tix end up in their filthy mits anyway?

Anyone used them or another and received e-tix no prob?

Still time for someone to decide to list but Saturday 3pm KO's and no TV coverage in UK doesn't help your cause .
Can't help you on stub hub.
