    I've just been in (I have another family member who became eligible today), and it looks like three of the five categories are still available - but without the ability to choose your seat anymore; just the automatic selection button, once you've chosen your category.

    It's all greyed out if you try and choose your seat.

    Very different to how it was for me on Saturday when I got mine.

    System predictably awful but managed to get in at 1:30 there was still a decent amount going in the top tier when I got in especially more toward the lower numbered categories. Up in the gods in 533 but couldn't miss it.

    I'm trying to help a pal and the automated ones isn't working either. Think they're gone now bar the odd one which might come out of someone's basket.

    Think he's missed out by about ten minutes:(

    Had a couple of mates who got shafted by the system. One made it out with a ticket just before they ran out, the other did not... sickener for anyone caught in that position :(

    In fairness you could pretty much guarantee a ticket by buying a £20 membership. Anyone that was desperate to go (and that had an existing supporter number) was able to get a ticket.

    Well that's what compounded his anger. He had the membership, the system just booted him out at checkout twice. He then tried to re-enter a third time and was told he wasn't eligible to purchase any more tickets because he had already done so. He had never purchased any!

    Some real horror stories, you'd assume there'll be a bit of a review internally as that system was not up to it at all.

    That happened to me yesterday - got booted out on purchasing then couldn't buy as said I already had. Luckily it eventually let me buy though.

    I just went in to check something and there are still cat 5 tickets available even if they say it has sold out, odd.

    To be honest, apart from the queueline time getting longer & not having abuy now button, I didn't have any issues at all. Once I was in and could select a seat, it was easy.

    Maybe I just got lucky.

    SAINTS have sold out their allocation at Wembley Stadium for Sunday's Championship playoff final against Leeds United.

    The club have sold 35,667 tickets for the crunch game at the home of English football on May 26.

    This is great news and we will make some noise in what should be a brilliant atmosphere.

    I do feel for those loyal supporters that qualified but couldn't purchase due to issues with the site. Hope everyone on here that wanted to go, managed to get tickets

    And for those of us that bought them, let's 'enjoy' the drama of waiting for them to turn up :)
