Hopefully the damage isn't already done. I fear that the fiasco so far has put off many potential attendees. If its resolved before general sale tomorrow I'm optimistic demand will be ok. Much later and there'll be a greater negative impact

If it gets sorted then those who wanted to purchase a number of tickets will have to be to contact the ticket office and replace their current seats with a replacement larger group together/ I’m sure this will be possible so we should get everything back on track even if an admin pain for the club?

Everyone will get a ticket, you need to calm down and stop digging at fans. You're acting like it's all sold out.

To be fair that’s not the issue - the fact is we’ve reached a Play-Off Final in a massive 90,000-seater stadium. For two clubs in the 5th tier to not be able to experience that together in groups of friends and family is nothing short of a disgrace. We shouldn’t need a “ticket exchange” thread for one of the biggest stadiums in world football. It’s a joke.

If it's manual processes needing visit to ticket office or a phone call it's only going to work for a very small number of people.

Don't disagree with you on that, my point was about the guy picking at people for their level of support.

It is embarrassing and someone needs to be held accountable for this shocking debacle and it certainly isn't Southend United or Oldham Athletic.
 
Considering the pressure from MP's, TV/radio presenters and the likes of SM I would be surprised if they don't release a few thousand more because it's a national embarrassment on our so called home of football if they cannot accommodate more than half of their stadium.

Yes, it should never have got this far but I believe it'll get sorted out or else the backlash will be off the chart.
 
Does anyone think that it is just a coincidence that Mark Ives CEO of the National League resigned with immediate effect for family and personal reasons on 16 April?

As far as I can see the Playoff dates were confirmed on 20 February and TFL publish engineering work closures at least 6 months in advance. Yesterday, they published planned works week by week up to the end of November. So this lot of work would have been known at end of last November.

The whole timetable has been a farce. The last games should have been played on Saturday 3rd May, the eliminators by 6th May and semis by 13 May, and the final at a ground other than Wembley.

Clearly because of the engineering works, the NL has been allocated the duff date of 1June as every other game has been given priority - is this why the FA Cup final was played last weekend before the end of the season?

Anyway who is running the NL at the moment? Their silence on this debacle is deafening. Not one announcement from them as far as I can see. Just let the clubs take all the flack.

it wasn't if you forgot your password, tried to re set your password only to be put back in the line after various attempts.

I finally got mine sorted after standing for over an hour in the poxy line but the whole thing so far has been nothing but a nightmare.

There were many old people in the line too who aren't always as computer savvy as the rest of us and seeing them standing in the heat was truly heartbreaking.
