Today's ticketing issues

I bought 2 tickets this morning - after a lot of being kicked out of the website and the phone queue.

I am a season ticket holder of 20 years standing and I now attend with my grandson. His first game was geared to ensure that a (then) 5 year old would see a goal fest and be hooked forever. He is, now 11, hooked forever and a season ticket holder despite that first game being a home tie in the FA cup against Luton Town.

We have talked regularly about starting to go to away games and when the cup draw was made and I realised it was half term I decided to give it a go.

I didn't expect to be successful as I have always thought that regular away supporters would/should have priority but I also assumed that you guys would be skilled at getting in first.

I'm sorry if a few Regular away fans have missed out but I 'm not sure my Grandson or I should feel guilty.
