Just got mine and I'm in the normal away corner bit (E233) so can't imagine they're selling the top tier yet.

Absolute madness

I predict 3k maximum and even that is a solid effort on a Wednesday

Also Mega Ron. 'A lot of people just get the tickets for the points' :rofl: My favourite myth

I know a lot of people who buy a ticket just to get the point.

If you look at various twitter accounts such as @westhamtickets you’ll find plenty of people trying to sell their away tickets who have clearly only purchased them for that exact reason

Leeds away next for sale later this month. Hoping to get to this one.
I entered the ballot too so assume I was unsuccessful
I’ve got 8 points though so did I just miss the window for when I could have bought tickets for people with those points (ie is the ballot run after that point ?)

I’ve got 2 for the Man Utd cup game so hopefully that will get me extra points

Ah right, I guess I missed the time slot for when people with 8 points could buy tickets
By the time I realised I was able to get tickets it must have gone to the ballot
That’s annoying, was really hoping I could get to the saints game :swear:

Keep an eye on this thread, posters copy the ticketing info for all away games including the time slots for each points category

'A lot of people'

Its not a lot of people, of course there is a select few that may purchase but the core of the support is always the same, Pinky has highlighted it before

I created this to help people like Marquis to get his points up and get to as many aways as possible, already highlighted that every away game so far has been accessible for anyone that even went to a handful of games over the previous 18 months, that's the tagline, not the fact that a select few might spend £30 for a priority point

It should be soon, right? Everyone else gets two hours, but Claret members get four days? Missing a chance to sell more tickets! I reckon they're delaying it as it's on the cusp of having to take the next ticket allocation and don't want to commit to the extra 2,000 or whatever it is.

An extra 2,000? I thought we'd already sold 7,400 of our 8k allocation... :chin:

Having the same issue, the website update was a bit pointless if the main reason to use it isn’t working.

They seem to have updated the system and as typical with any IT upgrade its a bit of a nightmare to use . ( It may be my poor IT skills , but the old one worked fine )

#GSB out , cant even sort a ticket purchase system !

Interesting new change, looks like you can pick where you want to sit a little more which has always been a slight bug bare of mine when I was first in line for Newcastle and ended up with back row tickets!

Also that system is double slow, would give yourself plenty of time and patience to order the tickets

In fairness, its not rubbish, its much better than the last one with the ability to pick is surely a better addition but totally agree its a little slow and thats where the problem is

Something i felt that should've been reintroduced as you used to be able to pick the block you were in
