I managed to book 5 this morning for some friends using my other half's season ticket.
Was waiting for about 20 mins, then took about 5-10 mins to get them booked.
Maybe just me but I've found them quite efficient & helpful

Chill Winston's!
There are hundreds of people all logging in at the same time and calling at the same time. The phone line with have a maximum active lines (it can't be changed without serious financial spend updating cabling etc) and the web server will not be set-up to cope with a mad rush like this - it also happens for big gigs so we are not alone.
There are thousands of tickets left and we are only on day 4 of sales - by this time in the last play off final ticket fiasco we had 4 hour queues at ticket holes in a wall. I think on this day of sales you had to have about 3 ticket stubs or a combination of different coloured vouchers - they weren't even on general sale.
With 37k on sale, everyone will get one that want's one.

I think I prefer the old school way of getting your Wembley tickets, 1993 style.
You got up early, arrived at the County Ground at 7am to find the queue winding round the block. You waited for 3 or 4 hours, plenty of banter with the other fans...and walked away beaming with the tickets in your hand. There were even photographers on hand from the Adver taking pictures of excited fans brandishing their tickets.
I think we've lost something some how. 20th century 1-0 21st century.

i can understand the panic if you keep refreshing the ticketzone page tickets are flying out, its ace. i imagine people arent worried about not getting tickets they just want a decent seat.

This is fucking bullshit.
The Ticket Zone website is claiming I've already made a booking which is pretty surprising considering I have a unique surname, live in Brighton and have never been on the website before.
Both ticket zone telephone numbers are constantly engaged, as is the STFC box office.
No reply to my email asking what the fuck is going on.
I know we're not going to sell out but I've got two other people relying on me for tickets and I want to have some kind of choice about where we sit.
Wankers.

Pretty much what has happened to me and loads of others. You've got to ask why the hell they went with this bunch of tossers: surely someone like Ticketmaster would have been better??? Either way, Ticketzone have really dropped a bollock here. |

also ardiles, people would have a mooch into the club shop and buy some useless tatt merchandise (at reasonable prices, not £10 for a flag)...good revenue generator |
