Logged in 8:59, grand. Go to special purchases, select 2 Clan Terrace at 9:01. The thing calved and I haven't been able to get as far again.

Will not be a happy bunny if I lose out here due to the early sale glitch. If there was carpetbagging going on, it's an even bigger joke.

Now I appreciate Cormac and Salmson's help in avoiding this hassle.

I got in, but nothing in Special Purchases section, just season ticket renewal....now crashed! Grr.

Yup, I got a reference number so I should be ok but now I am unable to check tickets in my account.
Runtime error.
Bit pathetic really by tickets.ie

Tickets.is has already crashed

9.02 and it's done. Got 2 tickets for the clan.

Yep. cbirfu.seasontickets.ie/renewals/ is down.

Well that is a relief, I thought maybe we had all been a little bit too cute for our own good.

Just received the following email:

Dear customer:

You purchased a ticket for the Connacht v Glasgow Semi-final on Saturday 7th May.

This was before the pre-sale window was to be officially open, which was corrected as soon as it was discovered.

We are emailing you, on behalf of Connacht Rugby, to confirm that your ticket purchase is valid.

Kind regards,
Tickets.ie

Posted a link on the media thread to the Alex Shaw interview with Pat/Bundee/Mul after the Pro 12 awards. They'll be squeezing an extra 2000 (minimum) in for the semi. #bearpit++

We just got clarification that the tickets that were sold early are valid and will be honoured.

Sorry for your trouble, boss.

No from what I can see, they took it down after a couple of hours.

we hedged our bets on this, i bought 2 yesterday but herself is holding off until 9 Monday in case i'm made walk the plank.

Can the tickets still be bought today?

Got mine last night - Printed it off. No bothers.

They can whistle dixie if they try to cancel it at this stage.
