Not sure why people still don't get it.
Ticketek progressively release bays or areas of seats and hold back other areas that are more expensive to sell later when fans get desperate. It's their process. Gone are the days when a particular match is released for sale in total and it's a first in best dressed scenario.
We were told yesterday morning that there were only 600 seats left for the Dragons game. Virtually a sellout apparently. Yes, there was a bit of rain around, but eventual crowd was 5000 under capacity with large areas of unsold seats? Did that many people not decide to go?
There have been so many instances for so many sporting events in different stadiums in the past when, if you log on early to try and buy great tickets in good spots, it comes up as "Allocation Exhausted", Yet weeks later, these same seats are released for sale. It's a f**king scam, and it seems to be supported by all major sporting clubs and organisations.
If anyone wants to go to a sporting event, just get tickets now, take what you get and be happy you are there.
I bought tickets for the Wanderers vs Leeds United match about 3 months ago when they went on sale. My choice of available seating options was limited, so I chose the best I could that was "available" at the time.
Well what do you know? Better seats are available now that were classified as allocation exhausted back then. It's a f**king scam that Ticketek have been getting away with for years now.
