    Shambles for tickets again

    Posted by club call on 26/3/2024, 11:06:14

    Loggin in on ticket portal, no link through showing for Arsenal tickets until one minute past ( had atomic clck up so knew exact time) by which tme all the tickets gone.

    And before we get on to it- seasong tikcet holder for many years, fan for 42, and no didnt go to six away kast year as mum dying so couldnt.

    I dont mind missing out but if tickets are advertised as available at ten then they should be avaible at ten.

      A lot of us didn't get tickets on this occasion. Stop whining. There'll be a lot of interest from secret Gooners who have mates who support us. It happens. Try for returns.

          They prob were available at 10 - there was only 350 - so would have sold out in 30 seconds tops.

              I must have been lucky as I managed to buy a ticket through the portal.
              I logged into the portal before 10. Kept refreshing the page and eventually it loaded, with options to buy.

              Had the same problems as others reported when trying to get a ticketfor the Spurs game.

                Missed out as well, same for Tottenham. But of a shame but with not many left it can't be helped.

                For me it let me click on the show availability and then said there were some at the back but they'd gone when I clicked on it.
                Perhaps it might've been nice to give people who didn't get Arsenal tickets priority but it is what it is

                  It's not a shambles just because they were a minute late, though it's probably as much to do with Internet caching as anything else that caused you to see what you did rather than the ticket process.

                    And they would have sold out just as quickly at 10am as they did at 10.01!

                      You don't half talk some bollocks sometimes. Internet caching indeed...

                      It's pretty obvious that a lot of these tickets are pre-reserved by the Club and/or the TO, and the 'sale' is mostly performative. Sure, some will be available, but nowhere near what they report.

                        That's nothing to do with what I said though is it?

                        He was (originally) whining about the timing, not the amount of tickets.

                        And Internet caching is a perfectly logical explanation for that. Having spent many years managing Internet access for major corporations . . .

                          And if they were "pre-reserved" don't you think they would come out of the initial sale prior to all this anyway?

                        The only fair way to do this is for Mike to use the old SKF clock, and at 10am on the dot (according to the atomic clock) fire the tickets out of a canon from the balcony of the Town Hall.

                        But we all know the bureaucrats at the Premier League and Ticketmaster will say no.

                          Feel for you, I couldn't get a ticket today either, but if we have 340 tickets, think that is how many the ticket office said last night were left; and we sold them in under a minute, it can hardly be described as a shambles.

                          Love the ticket office but couldn't imagine them managing to sell that many over the phone or in person in 60 seconds.

                            Don't mind them selling. More the point that portal wasn't working as stated.

                                It what way was it not working? The tickets went on sale they were sold, other than the disappointment that you didn't get a ticket, I don't get your upset about.

                              Same here, was refreshing before 10 and at 10 the website didn’t refresh until 10:01 and they were all gone. Nothing new

                                  Unlike most of the retired old gits on here some of us have jobs ( work in critical care) which mean a trip to Bournemouth midweek is a no no, but North London a yes.

                                        Yeah but if he's got a season ticket he's not going to need to buy another home ticket is he?

                                            Not really. Had stated I have a season ticket so reasonable to assume reference to away match, given
                                            A) I have a season ticket and
                                            B) was refering to buying an away ticket
                                            C) people bang on about fans only going to the big away days.

                                            You need to start reading what people write rather than piling on.

                                              The post you responded to clearly referred to the home game, not the redated away game (for which tickets were available, actually).

                                              How come you replied to me, anyhow, and not City Gent who called you a clown?

                                                Dunno how clear it was, I thought CG was talking about the away game as well. Not sure what a home game has to do with it tbh considering we're talking about an away game (and club call already mentioned having a season ticket)

                                                      This is hard work, are you just on the wind up?

                                                      Yes, but the confusion came from city gents first post which was ambiguous at best but club call (and I) thought referred to the home game

                                                      City gents responded to clarify and you posted 'busted'.

                                                      We both replied to say not really as city gents original post wasn't clear, and in context looked to be referring to the away game. The home game is different, obviously.

                                                      So it wasn't clear initially, and then the clarification kind of nulled any point cg was trying to make

                                                            Enjoy! I'm not really having a go at anyone, but will respond when they have a go at me.

                                                            Just about to plunge into writing another IT systems cyber-security/compliance/digital skills blog for fintechs. Wrote a piece about AI in that context last week, which is why I mentioned it to you after extensive research! So FIFA seems quite appealing....

                                                              Good luck to you, cyber security can quickly get quite technical.

                                                              How does it work, out of interest? Are you given a brief and perhaps a general script, or are you just expected to go off on your own and get it written, or is IT an area you specialise in?

                                                                I work hand in hand with a couple of big IT providers, and some cyber-security/compliance specialists. I read their papers, interview them, write materials ranging from white papers to marketing campaigns (that's where I came in, now IT sector is big for me). I guess my main skill is the ability to absorb information, ask the right questions, tease out what they actually mean/want to say (as you'll know, many techies aren't that good at that and make assumptions about what the market knows and doesn't). I've always done that, it's what good comms are all about, from a three word slogan that is dob on to restructuring and rewriting papers.
                                                                I prefer the slogan side, but hey!, the rest is interesting too. I work in several sectors, but IT is massive at the mo.

                                            Once again, a total waste of time even trying ! Nearly as good as the Forest FA Cup Final ticket sales balls up, that totally allienated many loyal supporters ! No wonder decent local clubs like St Albans City are picking up so many new supporters over the last few seasons !

                                              Surely if you were a loyal supporter like you claim, you'd have done 6 aways last season? You fuckin glory hunter.
