whats the situation for people like this?

He might be able to swap a signed shirt with someone!

Did he miss registering or buying?
If its registering there's gonna be no hope. If it's missed purchasing I think the guys missed the boat too for tickets.
He would have had a full 4 days in which to buy.

This guy isn't you is it?!

Got my ticket!

There were only a few Â£70 downstairs tickets (all gone now), no Â£54 tickets upstairs, just Â£38 or the cheaper restricted view ones. All seats around row 20 onwards, so quite far back but at least I'm there!

Boomer - did you mate get one?

(PS I'm not going to swap it for a signed shirt mate, and please KEEP your shirt!)

Its gone 12 noon, it isnt sold out, does this mean it's going to silvers?????

They were supposed to make an announcment on this on friday. But seem to have extended it for golds.

Anyone know???? Im still stupid enough to be hopeful

You'll have to see. The window for those gold members who were unsucessful but then got upgraded to standby ends at 5pm today.

If there are still unsold tickets, I would imagine that the next in line would be those gold memebers who registered but were unsucessful and did not get upgraded to standby.

I know of about ten people who are in this situation so would it be right to assume that there is a couple of thousand like this?

Its to the point where I've just rang the box office

Said its "highly unlikely" it will go to silvers, but coldnt tell me when they'll know if they're becoming available.

Ah well, all you can do is hope

Only a few 2-3 blocks in green now

All of the lower 100% gone

few upper tier blocks left in Orange with lmtd availability

Only bad view seats left for 18-28 quid

Just went to have a look.

Seems that there is a lot left in some blocks.

Not sure if it will get to Silvers but there may be a few left for unsucessful gold members

How can seats in a stadium that cost so much and took so long to build have restricted views?

tbh honest I'd rather pay Â£18 and have a pole and **** in front of me than shell out Â£80 for a perfect view!!!
