You pick your section, the number of tickets then after pardoning my interruption it says my selection is unavailable. Then when you finally find a section with availability it doesn't tell you what row is available until after you've paid.

So, a word of warning to anyone thinking of waiting until after Saturday's result to decide, there is hardly anything left so you may be disappointed. Even the £150 tickets are in tier 3 of the north stand.

As for Saturday, all the lower section has sold out and we have got tickets in row 23 of the top section.

It is a terrible site to use & I’ve told them. Friends of mine, the lady has MS & is in wheelchair. Her husband requested accessible wheelchair tickets for the game at the DW only to be told there wasn’t wheelchair availability at the stadium!

There are several platforms around the DW, so that shouldn’t be an issue but Ticketmaster kept saying there was no access for wheelchairs.

If they hadn’t persisted about accessible wheelchair access they wouldn’t have gone to the game. How many other disabled people in wheelchairs didn’t attend because of this?

Friends wanted to attend the DW quarter final, but cheapest tickets that were still available were £55, so they didn't go.
We paid for £25 seats and ended up with fairly decent seats, by luck, but the central sections of the North and South stands, priced at £35, had quite a few empty seats and the West stand had large sections empty, because of high ticket prices. This game should have been a sellout.
Whoever put the ticketing system and prices in place should hang their head in shame.
