Happy new year 2012
With reports that over half of those that applied for Olympic tickets had failed, London 2012 organisers have insisted that there was no fairer way to distribute the tickets available to the public.
Fans had to apply for the tickets they wanted, then wait to see how much money was taken out of their bank accounts before finding out which tickets they had been able to secure.
Cohen, who runs the Seatwave ticketing operation, says that the system let down fans badly, and insists there should have been more open access for ticket selection.
"I think there has been a failure in the system," Cohen told Sky Sports News. "While there are other countries that do have tickets available there are very few of them and they're for less popular events.
