What pisses me off even more is that you re forced to wait 30 secs before being told your are going to be cut off.
....and get charged 7p every time you try - that's if it's a landline. I know people who've been continuously trying from their mobiles - they may be in for a shock!

I can remember back in 1989 when Argyle drew Everton at home in the FA Cup. You could buy your cup tickets at the Lyndhurst turnstiles. It was the Walsall home game (Jan 21 '89) that they did that, the crowd that day was 11, 505.
Imagine if they did that now, it would be a sell out this coming Saturday against Stevenage.
Back to plan A for this time around, I have asked a mate to see if he can get me a ticket via contacts. We both have other mates who are ST holders, so I am hoping something can be done.

I was just thinking, what if there are Liverpool fans in the home sections, particularly in Blocks 15 and 16, surely that could lead to possible trouble breaking out between rival fans and all on live tv too.
The stewards could have a busy night perhaps, especially if they have to remove any Liverpool fans, Plymouth based or otherwise.

I would imagine there are still some seats left as people queuing today were given raffle tickets and told to come back tomorrow. Imagine the outrage if those with raffle tickets were told there were no more seats tomorrow (but they would be entered into a draw for a Pasoti mug).
I managed to get 2 tickets (I'm a POTD-er) using a different Ticketmaster number (to the one the club gave) somebody gave out on Twitter (and it was on Facebook too). Seems like this whole exercise has been complete chaos.

More rumours spreading that there have been people buying large numbers of tickets.
WE have suspended ’phone sales of tickets for our Emirates FA Cup third-round replay against Liverpool.
Demand for tickets for the big game on Wednesday, January 18 has been such that we want to make sure that we can honour supporters who have queued at Home Park, many for several hours.
Early on Wednesday, it became apparent that we would not be able to process the demands of everyone who had come to Home Park to buy a ticket.
We, therefore, called a halt to the queues and issued a GREEN ticket-voucher to people who we estimated would not reach the front of the line by close of business.
Those supporters, and supporters who subsequently called to Home Park, have been issued with a green ticket-voucher, allowing them to reform the queue on Thursday morning in the place they held when we stopped the queues.
For convenience, supporters should aim to come to Home Park in the following sequence:
From 9am, green ticket voucher holders: 510-590; 10am, 591-670; 11am, 671-750; Noon, 751-830; 1pm, 831-910; 2pm, 911-1,000.
We will renew telephone sales when and if it becomes clear that we will be able to satisfy the demand of those supporters who hold a ticket-voucher.
We thank you for your magnificent support and your patience. We will do our utmost to make sure everyone who wants a ticket for the match will be able to get one. Read more at [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Ticketmaster isn't an 01752 number.
