Glad I wasn't queueing on the Mold Road. That rain was heavy but the wind was in the right direction for the queue on the Club shop side. Incidentally the tickets are now available on line but terrace only. Yes they will all go before the end of this week I think.

If it's on your account then your season ticket will be connected to your online account I assume. If you don't have one you wouldn't have access to buy one.

Spot on - although it was chucking it down in the howling wind, standing next to the building line behind the Yale Stand we were pretty much in the dry.
Quite atmospheric watching the 70 foot poplar trees swaying like dancers in the blustery wind under floodlight - in fact more entertaining than some matches we have seen.

Got to wonder though if there is a better way of selling tickets like this - fans shouldn't need to stand out in the rain - maybe set up the selling locations where a que can form under cover - surely do able ?

That was almost poetic at times, and I think it added to the tradition of queuing for tickets that some find almost comforting.

There are ways of overcoming the need to queue. No one queues for Wales away tickets, because they have spent time creating a data base of priority.

If vouchers had been issued the online sales could have been filtered, but nothing would satisfy everyone.

The romance of big queues in the rain under the floodlights may not be perfect, but it does create an incredible vision of the loyalty and enthusiasm of the supporters, and it does get the job done.
