    I doubt any "directs" will go on sale before next Tuesday or Wednesday, if at all, but they MAY.

    It is being monitored daily, but that is the current plan.

    If the Seats go well via Satellites, (& the Cardiff SPT noise will be upped this weekend) then there will not be any more "directs". It just depends on quallie & satellite demand between now & then. As things stand, the projections suggest we will be at 135-140 seats by next Wednesday or Thursday. If that is the case, I doubt there wll be further "directs", as for admin reasons, we need to draw a line by Thursday morning latest.  
     

    To guarantee a seat, it's best to try & qualify.

    I was just about to start a thread with the same question myself.

    I know you can't possibly know how much action the satellites will get or even how many priority club members will buy-in direct but I do remember you saying how fast Brighton would sell out and yet 5 seats still went up for sale. So I was guessing that cos that had 140 runners and this has 170 runners, there will probably be some spare, but dya not think so?

    Also, last time I remember it got announced on the forum that they were on sale at about 9am so they'd been announced and sold out long before I got home from work. I know you can't do anything to change this but are you able to confirm (or give an educated guess) what time it would be announced (if it happens) so that I could check the forum each day at that time.

    No, not really, there are so many variables, & admin obstacles.

    In our experience, the demand in SPT's in Wales really ramps up towards the day.

    Best really to try & qualify, that is the only way to GUARANTEE a seat.
