Default That's new!!

Was online and trying to purchase tickets for the Northampton v Harliquinns game in new years day, upon clicking on the weblage I was promptly 'put on hold'.
And said it would refresh the page after I waited in a queue for 30seconds.
New one on me that. Virtual queuing for a website.

Ticketmaster run that kind of system, so for popular events you end up 'queueing' for quite a while. Think I queued for 25 minutes t get tickets for The Police gig in Cardiff a couple of years back.

Hopefully it wasn't so they could put you on hold to access all your personal data and put a quick ebay type sale to the highest bidder for all your details!!!!

well you surely cant say its irrespective of being a rugby fan, because you ARE a rugby fan so surely that negates that statement?

dont get me wrong, i enjoy footy more than rugby and i agree with the statement of them being overpaid but thats not their fault is it? supply and demand and all that...just playing advocate of the devilish variety here

sorry, derailled as usual. carry on.

yeah in a web queue woo blimey etc etc
