Just had a "congratulations" email from Arsenal re the Brighton ballot. I have already got as many tickets through the ballot this season than I did the whole of last season, so something's clearly changed!

    Nice. I only tried once as a red but failed.

    Not so keen on the new system which means if I can’t get tickets in the family enclosure with the kids it seems like I’ll automatically be allocated the expensive tickets for them… unless I just won’t get any if I apply for them. Bit unclear.

    Has anyone got the results of the Leicester ballot yet? Especially red members? Not heard anything and was supposed to be out yesterday

      I applied for Silver tickets but no luck, my first failure of the season.

      Worth checking your bank balance though, sometimes you've been successful and they're quicker taking the payment than sending the email...

      I've not had results back either. Not holding my breath though, looking at it there's only a 1 in 10 chance of getting tickets as a red.

      Qwiss I've had this experience in the past. Not sure the system is fully glitch-free.

      They're saying the no emails are having trouble but check your account just in case. No luck here

      Managed to get tickets for PSG through the red ballot! Delighted. Taking my dad πŸ˜„πŸ˜„πŸ˜„

      I don't think we've seen the men since 2019 so very excited. Now just hoping Odegaard is back to play some part 🀭

      I'd say I'm happy for you but I've not won a single ballot since the system came in (including PSG) and have applied for a good 80% of them. So yeah, get stuffed.

        Got my first tickets through the ballot for Southampton. Tried for most of the weekend games. So don't despair, I had given up

        goon Haha hey at least you know they are going to true Goon(er)s 😜

        Definitely do keep applying and don't give up. I am sure you will make it through eventually πŸ€— it will probably be when you least expect it.

        Got nothing yet this season either. To add insult to injury the club are sending me multiple rejection e-mails for each match. Really rubs it in.

        Just got tickets for Liverpool next month - 3/4 ballots this season! Wasn't sure I actually wanted them this time as I don't get paid till Monday and have just had a very expensive weekend in Edinburgh...

          I'd have been happy to lift that burden off your shoulders and take the tickets off you mate.

            Big Willie hahaha, I'm sure.

            You're alright, I've been under a duvet all day so the chances of me needing to spend any money between now and Monday are pretty, prettaaaaaay, pretty slim. Thanks for the offer though. 😊

              Big Willie Cheers dude, yes I am full of snot. Feel the most wiped out I've been since the last time I had the 'rona.

              Got tickets for the Nottingham Forest game at the end of next month. A killer weekend in North London beckons - Friday night at Ally Pally with Fontaines DC, Jo, James and his missus.

              And then Saturday at the Arsenal, with James - if he can get permission from the missus... 😁
