Its better than a ST holder not having a ticket. It would be absolute chaos. You cannot sell things and then change your mind. You can.

Take a look at TM terms and conditions. They will have no issue cancelling your order and refunding you if they want to.

Statement:- "We are not very good we are not very good. We are not very we are not very we are not very good" Could catch on as a terrace chant😁 On a serious note we still haven't had confirmation on what went wrong, until then no one can do anything "We dont know what we're doing" x100 It's happened again, It's happened again...

Cancelling tickets is detrimental to others who bought them in good faith. They did not knowingly stop a ST holder buy them.

Gets right on my nerves that club staff have plenty of time to tell individuals what’s going on but not enough time to send a communication to set the record straight and let everyone know, and prevent the bloody communication in the first place. I doubt it's that easy to resolve, they'll probably have to take legal advice regarding refunding last night's sales/not holding ST tickets back and SAG's advice about opening the new stand. Although not sure why they haven't issued a holding statement accepting they are aware of issues. But that seems to be how they operate now. Exactly topper. They dont have to tell us exactly what they’re going to do necessarily just tell us that they know there’s a problem and that they’re looking into it. In my line of work if someone acknowledges a problem I have much more confidence that they’re going to do something about it than if they’re all quiet on me. All it has to be is: “Ticketing issue for Norwich replay on xx January under investigation The club is aware that on releasing tickets for the game against Norwich that tickets were released to non-priority group supporters ahead of those in priority groups. The club is working with its partners to understand the issue and establish the fairest way of reopening ticket sales to priority group members, and the possibility of making extra tickets available for the fixture We will update supporters at the earliest convenience.” All of this speaking to someone at the club and getting an unofficial reply means the individuals are focussing on handling those specific supporters and are less free for fixing the issue. Make a statement, get on with fixing it.

We're going. Job done.

It is actually a reflection on outsourcing - may well be a lack of communication between club and ticketmaster, but whatever the cause it would not have happened when the in house staff were used to process tickets.

Re touts/greedy fans unless I'm missing something I can't see them selling on the tickets that easily, unless they think a ticket for the Norwich game gives them first dibs on a Liverpool ticket? Selling out in a couple of hours last night does seem a bit odd particularly if that included all the terrace s/t tickets, I doubt even the Scunthorpe game sold out that quickly? Hi Topper, I'm not saying that it is touts/greedy fans, but I was told that some were on the 'internet' boasting about how they had 10 tickets for the game and saying that they hadn't seen Rovers for years. I'm not saying they are touts, but buying ten tickets at a time would explain why it was sold out so quickly/ Don't believe everything you read on the Internet. Half the people are WUM with nothing better to do. Obviously something has gone wrong and when a solution is found then a statement will be made. Also how can people turn up with tickets to get in surely they haven't been sent out yet as I have purchased mine and have confirmation but no link for a digital ticket so was expecting a paper ticket to be sent.

UTG It will be interesting to see how the club deal with this, either way people are not going to be happy. Although ST holders 'should' have priority it isnt ever 100% guaranteed they get tickets for cup games, therefore id say the bought tickets stay bought

UTG If the club can blanket cancel ticket holders who have more than x amount of tickets then surely that would be the fairest way forward. There can’t be many instances where individuals have genuinely purchased more than say 10 tickets all to themselves. A decent data analyst should surely be able to knock this together in an hour if they know the data model. If it’s more complicated than that then the model is too complicated. A count of purchasers and how many tickets were bought. Cross reference against season ticket holders.

Despite being a STH that clearly deserves to be prioritised, the fact you're the first one to say this is ridiculous assuming it's true. Why are the club incapable of getting in front of things like this with their communication. If this is the plan and they know it, it should be published! Gets right on my nerves that club staff have plenty of time to tell individuals what’s going on but not enough time to send a communication to set the record straight and let everyone know, and prevent the bloody communication in the first place. It was only because I asked him outright WTF did it happen, and I know Adam personally, that he told me. Plus, he knows me and knew I wouldn't be leaving without an explanation, or I'd turn green and rip my shirt off!! I did mention that it might be worth putting it on the website, but the shop was so manic, I don't think they were doing anything other than 'fire fighting' at the time.
