JUST GOT 10

Joking. Booked mine and the brothers, but we are both ST holders, assuming you two are as well ? Had to pay £50 which was a pain.

Maybe best to ring up in the morning to make sure they dont cancel the non-st holder ones booked prior to them going on sale at 10am

Then again, its the clubs fault. Get email confirmation?

Why? ST seats were only held until 5 pm this afternoon. That's what it's said on the OS all along.

Now it's a free-for-all.

Really? I've just bought some on member cards - not STH.

And unbought ST seats were definitely released at 5 pm today.

No, the exclusive selling period came to an end wwhen planned, and they went on general sale 18 hours earlier than advertised.

The usually do that, and no harm done because the alternative would be 5 pm today until 9 am tomorrow with no selling.

But if anyone was making an assumption that STs would be held right until 9 am tomorrow they're very wrong and it says that nowhere.

In the past I have bought away tickets in similar circumstances ahead of the stated time for a particular points band with no probs. The TO normally quote the times for personal callers. Anyhow I have had e mail confirmation, it appears on my sons purchase history and £25 has gone from my available bank balance so I am happy there is not a prob.

Yep - it's standard practice - they always do it this way.

And as it's the regular supporters who know about it who tend to benefit what's the problem?

Mine is now on my purchase history.....but is says pending....which I assume will change at 9am tomorrow!! I also assume that if you are not allowed to do this that the club will contact me, as the money has moved from my avaliable amount in my account!!

Not happy about this, phoned up and bought a season ticket reserved seat yesterday and he assured me that the seat next to it was available but couldn't be purchased by anyone else until 9am today. Clearly not.
