I got just fine in but guessing all southend were held back. There was a few in the corners though.
Loads of tickets available...looks like a lot of SSH did not buy before the deadline?
This is ridiculous.
We apologize. We are unable to complete your request on this device.
So that you may continue to shop, we recommend using a different device (laptop, phone, tablet, etc.). Using a shared device? Make sure you’re logged into your Ticketmaster account.
Anyone have a code. Mines for 2pm. Thanks in advance. Hoping for another cold match, been amazing each match even though it's been S*** weather haha!
It keeps on telling me my code is not valid when I just had tickets
I just called my ticket rep to get tickets due to the error on both IE and Chrome. At work so can't spend all day doing this.
I've tried ever browser and ever device I have and still get that error.
Funny, I just got in fine.
I never got in. Luckily I wasn't desperate for additional seats on top of my two seasons. I really hate Ticketmaster.
Im struggling here. Disregard this post.

Same problems with the 2pm presale
There were a lot available when i got some extras for a coworker at noon but now checking the app presale and slim pickings. Wonder if they are holding back or its nearly sold out.
"Unable to complete your request"
SORRY BUT I THOUGHT YOUR EXORBITANT FEES WOULD PROVIDE A DECENT ONLINE PURCHASING SYSTEM
*rant over, momentarily
If I use the mobile site the only tickets I can buy are over 100 dollar. Is anyone else seeing this?
Man I never tried, but feel for people who did and got messed up by TM, ain't technology sometimes beautiful.
Remember The Man, The Legend, The Goal 5-12-07 and All That #9 Left On The Pitch, Thanks For The Memories !!!

ticketmaster was brutal, i had tickets and when i went to get tickets i got either an error or saying ithey were taken by another fan. you wathc scalpers still got there take, they went pretty fast
So, continuing....
Up front:
Alan Pulido is their main threat, he plays the false 9 in their 4-2-3-1. Pulido was supposed to be the next Carlos Vela but it hasn't happened for him. He has had a tumultuous career. He came up through Tigres and was a massive emerging star at 19 but then got into a huge fight with Tigres and the FMF over his contract. Sat out half a year then signed by a team in Greece who flipped him to Olympiacos. That summer he got kidnapped (!), then right after that got sold to Chivas.
https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...ter-kidnapping
His strike rate at Chivas was outstanding at first, but right now the guy is cold as ice, he has not scored in almost two months.
Their forwards, Godinez and Zaldivar, are unremarkable, and have nowhere near the pedigree of Dominguez, Peralta, Valencia, or Gignac.
The main threat from Chivas comes from midfield.
At the back:
Edgar Hernandez and Jair Peireira, the first choice CB and LB, are both apparently decent players (not allstars though) but both are out of the BMO game (Hernandez on accumulation, Pereira because he got a two game suspension in the first leg against NYRB for grabbing a guy by the throat - https://twitter.com/JogaBonito_USA/s...27039145373696).
So there will be massive pressure on Carlos Salcido, their 79 year old centre back. (OK. He is only 38.) Salcido is a Mexican legend, he played in three world cups, and the Olympics. (btw Carlos Salcido is not, fortunately, Carlos Salcedo, who I confused him with at first. Salcedo, a current Mex MNT starter at CB, also belongs to Chivas - Salcedo had a cup of coffee a few years ago at RSL, and currently is on loan at (and starts for) Eintracht Frankfurt. I have no idea why Chivas kept Salcido over Salcedo, or why they have two CBs named Carlos Salc*do, but it's good news for us that Salcido and not Salcedo is the guy we'll see Tuesday.)
In goal:
Their starting keeper is out on card accumulation. The back up, this guy, appears to have only played six times in three years.

If I had to guess at what Vanney would like to do Tuesday, it'd be that he'd like to get anyone on Chivas' back line not named Alanis 1v1 vs Gio and/or Altidore. A lot. So I expect our buildup to be more on our left side (ie away from Alanis). Would be great if Morrow were available and 100% for this purpose - if not, Ashtone gets the biggest job of his life Tuesday night. (It would be even sweeter if somehow VV could play left mid. One can dream I guess.)
Bottom line. Need to keep a close eye on Pizarro, the one guy who seems capable of breaking us down solo the way Ibarguen did. Other than that, our strategy is obvious. We need to do exactly what we did in the both first legs against Tigres and America, we go balls to the wall forward, and if we get a goal or two, keep pouring it on.

2-1 first leg at home vs Tigres, then 3-1 first leg at home vs CA, so isn't 4-1 pre-ordained first leg at home vs Chivas?
I want to see TFC put Chivas to the sword. 4-0 comb.
