Rangers fans rage as Estadio La Cartuja ticket site 'shambles' leaves punters in a spin

Rangers fans scrambling to bag tickets for Estadio La Cartuja have been left frustrated by technical issues.

The Ibrox club announced earlier on Friday that fans in Seville not attending the Europa League Final against Eintracht Frankfurt at the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan would get the opportunity to watch elsewhere.

La Cartuja, where Celtic contested the 2003 UEFA Cup Final, holds 60,000 spectators and the €10 tickets went on sale on Friday evening.

But the website was unable to cope with fans either being met with an error message or a notification indicating that sales had been suspended due to overwhelming demand.

Tens of thousands of punters are set to descend on the Andalusian city next week but Rangers were allocated just 9,500 tickets at a 43,000-capacity arena.

And the rush to secure tickets for La Cartuja left Rangers supporters in a spin.

One wrote: "Had chance to select seats multiple times now and then it crashes. This site is nothing short of a shambles."

Another said: "Selected seats three times and kicked out before could confirm. Nightmare."

An exasperated fan wrote: "Can someone just put me out my misery and let me know if the tickets for Estadio La Cartuja are sold out. This temp stopped and 504 error message is STRESS."

One wrote: "Can't even get a ticket for La Cartuja stadium, what chance have ye got man"

Another wrote: "Canna even get a ticket for the viewing as site crashed and now they have suspended selling tickets."

Acknowledging the issues, a post on La Cartuja's official Twitter account said: "We are receiving many requests for tickets. You may experience some problems in gaining access. Please be patient."
