If anyone has any chance of getting a ticket to Burnley away I would happily pay over the odds. Only live about 15 miles away so would be incredible.

Still have the ticket for Spurs home this weekend available if anyone knows someone who might want it

How does the resale bit work? Every time I've clicked on that bit it just shows a stadium map and there's no option to buy?
It’s the noise, the passion, the feeling of belonging, the pride in your city.

Usually I leave it a couple of days before looking as there's normally a lengthy queue when it first opens but this time I took a chance and got lucky. You just go into buy tickets for home matches and any available seats are there but if there are none I, like many others apparently, just keep hitting the refresh button until one appears which can be mind numbingly boring and very time consuming. As I say you just have to be very lucky as tickets seem to appear very randomly - can be any time of day or night - and lots of people are after them so you have to be quick as well.

Hope this helps.

Am I right in saying that only ST holders can put their tickets for resale, and not members?

Might mean resale tickets are more likely to come up closer to the day of the game?

Yes, I think that's right. For the Burnly game I got my ticket at 9:30pm on the Friday before the game, with travelling etc I can't risk waiting until the morning of the game when more seem to become available.

It's a long shot (a very long one) but if anyone has a ticket for the Burnley game, or knows of someone who might, that is going spare I'd be happy to pay a premium for it.

It's only 30 mins from where I live now so is actually accessible. Thanks

Sold out on 50 odd points so I was nowhere near.

Yeh I know I've basically got zero chance, but I thought I'd see on the off chance that someone can't make it or is just feeling incredibly generous 😂

Managed quite a few home games this year which has been great, but not been able to get an away ticket for quite some time

Yeh I don't think I can justify that! Heard nothing back on socials or through any other contacts, so it looks like it'll be dodgy stream on the TV for me.
