I'll pay up to £200 for a ticket. Desperate to go and cannot find a way. It's put me in a right old girly strop this evening!

Yep, good luck to you all and hope you get some sleep!

I often wonder why a small burger van doesn't turn up to VP at times like this.

Somebody brought 3 or 4 of those disposable bbq's and was cooking bacon sarnies at about 7am in the smoking shed. Not sure if they were selling them though.

Just checked the ticket office online and there's currently 11 blocks with tickets currently available. Also looks as though they've released blocks 533 and 534 which weren't available earlier this morning.

Yes I looked first thing and had a problem purchasing online. When I eventually got back on 534 was just released and green so maybe somewhere near the front. Couldn't get coach tickets so presumed they were sold out but after ringing for further 3 hrs and getting thro, I was told they were only selling to people with confirmed ticket purchases. 3 purchased on coach 33 , so all sorted and happy

If you have the option I'd reccommend trying the phone and the internet, I got into work early and nicked everyones phones and set them up for re-dial, I practiced for 20 minutes at 8.40 to see how quickly I could use all phones at once. I also logged in to the website at 8.15 and kept clicking refresh, it let me in just before 9 and, having ordered online only once before, had booked and paid for 6 tickets by 9.05.

Good luck.

It'll be interesting to see how the club deal with it when it approaches a sell out. Will they suspend online and phone sales at some point to ensure those queueing at the ground are all looked after? It doesn't affect me I've got mine, just wondering having read the stories of those who queued for hours today.
As a kid I queued all Sunday morning from Witton Island, up around the Holte pub and back down Trinity Road for LCSF tickets v ManU and at that age it felt like I was there for a week. When I queued for 5hrs for the 2000 final I thought then that it's ridiculous fans were being put through it in this (that) day and age - now another 15 years on I'm staggered how many people have been buying in person from the ticket office, when it's been so easy to book online (certainly during the season ticket holder windows anyway).
