£450 tickets for Southampton game already appearing on ticket touting sites.

Unreal
Am I right in thinking only 8 games went on sale?

I remember when I started with this joke of a system the trick was to use a season getting to 13 games, regardless of where you sat on whether the views were restricted. They've increased it to 14 this season and my thinking is it might go to 15 next. You just need to build up your membership. Work out when the returns are due to be advertised and keep buying.

This free for all is unfair really. They used to have 3 windows, one for those with 13 games, one for those with a few lower and then a final round for every member.

What a shame, seemed like a very good player imo. It seems to be a trend over the last 2 or 3 years, buy a player then loan him out or don't play him at all... then move him on. These players are millions of pounds each, surely someone is doing their homework before purchasing.
Helps for FFP. Buy for nowt, lown them out, hopefully they come good and play for us, if not hopefully they come good enough to sell for profit.

This season is the last of the excessive demand seasons, "normal" seats have been turned into quasi corporate seats to get more match day revenue making it harder for fans to get seats. This has been done on the QT of course.
The demand for hospitality last season was the highest ever experienced in modern times at Anfield however the new stand has enough hospitality to satisfy current demand thus freeing up some of the stupid stuff like eat in the Gladstone and get a bus to the upper Anny road for £150 stuff.

I expect the demand to be huge initially this season in particular for the CL games and it wont be pretty!

That's horrible really but I am absolutely sure this will be the last season it happens unless we really start winning stuff and demand increases.

It makes my corp tickets look a bargain (!) as we are guaranteed every single home game which is 19 games, say 4 domestic cup games depending on run and 3 CL games minimum = £115 a game, cheaper if we have a cup run.

Yeah with the extra cup games you are probably averaging out around £85 a game - but obviously with that you get the food (parking too??)

Just a bit quiet for me.....felt like I would be told off if I shouted haha

When 08:15 came it said over an hour.
Waited till 09:00. Still an hour so I went to sleep till 10:00. Still said an hour and that they were all sold out.
I think the club should actively find the touts on the tickets sites and ban them for life.

For my 50th I was promised a big trip this year, looking at a decent away game in the CL to do full tilt LFC approved hospitality trip that often uses the same plane as the team - nothing spared - however I am not doing that to go to bloody Porto!

Yep they should actively try buy them off the touts, pretending to be normal buyer then ban them... or you should have to take the card with you that bought the tickets...

Well our match against Chivas is tonight so we will soon see if that is article is bks.

It goes from Spurs have agreed a deal with Swansea to Spurs are understood to have agreed a deal.

No way Huw J will sell Davies for £10m after Shaw went for £25m.
Just to confirm, Davies was not "pulled out of the squad" yesterday but actually played 45 minutes of the second half at centre-back.

LFC's interest in Remy is growing, and interest in Bony diminishing, as the club think Remy, at £8m, offers better value for money. (Times).
