Is it only me that can't see Cat 1 sections?
In the blurb, it mentions Wembley release blocks in stages. I guess we have to fill out Cat 2 before they release those
In other words:
The supporters they prioritise aren't offered the best seats.
If the event is undersold, it will be the best seats that are left empty.
The club will not be maximising its potential revenue.

Or maybe the plan is that the most expensive seats are held back so that by 'general sale', it's expensive ones or nothing?

Given every ST holder can buy for 5 more, and even Members can buy for 2 more besides themselves, anyone buying under General Sale probably won't even have any Orient friends.
Also - it's Wembley who decides the order in which the blocks get released. Not sure what the logic is though, for those who want Cat 1.
They release the East section first, then move round northwards and southwards towards the middle. The idea being if one team doesn't sell out, the other team can have the unsold sections offered to them. But they can't do that if it's random blocks in the middle of our end.

Cat 1 will be released, just not yet.
Makes sense, although you'd have thought that at least one of the Cat 1 blocks next to our Cat 2 blocks that are available could have been released from the start
Mate of mine is down at the ground just now and he says there is “quite a queue “ of people getting their tickets.
Unfortunately, according to him, the queue is moving at a ‘snails pace’.
I’m guessing that fans don’t trust our online booking site………….

People who don't trust our ticket site - people who have time to join a queue on a Friday afternoon with little notice...
I'm guessing the average age there is a little higher than maybe the national median age
