Just had a look on Liverpool’s website and they’ve been given an extra 325 tickets. This is in contrast to the extra 1700 or so we’ve received. Also, Liverpool appear to still be selling out of their original allocation with those 325 - along with any returns - only being available for sale on Friday afternoon. Granted, their criteria is currently stricter than ours and they have a convoluted sales process with waiting lists, etc, but it looks like the Friday sale is first come, first served, for all members and season ticket holders, plus they’ve had less tickets to shift than us.

I think what this shows is that they’re not immune from slower than expected ticket sales, despite what some of their deluded fans might claim.

Interestingly, they also initially gave priority to those fans who attended the most FA Cup games last season (not including the semi and final), regardless of season ticket holder status. So a season ticket holder who only attended, say, one or two of those games, was further down the pecking order than a member who attended three or four.
Liverpool's ballet stage was oversubscribed by around 4:1 and they are going to those on the reserve list from the ballot for the extra allocation inn priority order. I'm not sure how you work out low demand from that?

Let's be honest, Liverpool have got a big glory hunting fan base. Norway, Scandinavia, Eire, N.Ireland, Wales, London and the Home Counties, the Far East, ex-Scouse Pats abroad, etc. Thankfully for Liverpool they only have 7K season ticket holders with a L postcode, so sorting out their local support with tickets shouldn't be a problem. ;-)

Thought it was 5k?
