Most ticket sales for events now have 1 or 2 waiting rooms - filtering like this stops the inevitable crashes when 10k (ITFC), 100k (say Coldplay) or 1m people (Taylor Switf?) all tried to log on at the same time to get a ticket. Its very rare to find a system crash now apart from the mega events and every time that happens ticketing systems seem to learn for the next time.
My first memory of trying to get tickets on line was for the Cricket World Cup in South Africa in 2003 where I spend a solid day and a half at work trying to log on and managed to get the last package, things are wayyyy better now - although it may explain my change of career!.
With all ticketing systems people look for ways to rook the system, but things have drastically improved in 20 years and would suggest a similar improvemt in the next 20 years. |

Queue is moving glacial slow today, got in at spot 400ish and now 328 after 5 minutes with the website suggesting 12 more minutes...normally takes a couple of minutes to get on when that early in the queue, demand eh? |

155. Marcus Bettinelli, Chelsea to Manchester City
The Athletic’s reported transfer fee: Nominal
Contract length: One year
Made one appearance in four years at Chelsea. Will be lucky if he matches that at City, where he is behind several goalkeepers in the Scott Carson role — a ceremonial position that could be filled by the Honey Monster if required. |

Thread | Time to gel
at 10:15 29 Aug 2025
Suspect we wont have 2 or 3 teams streaking away at the top of the table this year, which is a positive that gives us time to gel. You have to think / hope that come November the style and energy of the side should be taking shape giving us a chance to come storming through....
Well thats what Im hoping, bring it on!! |

Feel Johnson has looked better when he has been deployed further forward, with the injuries / departures there you can easily see that being Kierans plan for him |

With the shock and awe of signings / linkages over the last 12 hours it looks like we have moved on from the Hackney / The Uruguay chap / any Mexicans / Meditteranean strikers and onto next targets on the mythical 'list' (think Epstein but with more names).... probably ending up paying a mill or two more for these so late in the window but we obviously are filling in those holes - I would suggest most of the remaining energy will be focussed on the Scandi kid and also a late wild card of a Premier loan....oh and of course a 9.59pm signing of Encisco or something wild
Anyhow - about that striker... |

Is this a last minute panic buy, someone we've had on 'the list' all season or an opportunity we couldnt refuse? Just stinks of....something? |

Sounds like a shake down to get Sporting to top up their offer, but should get the usual sorts howling into the void! [Post edited 22 Aug 21:57]
