shaggycoo Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 3 hours ago, Texas Pete said: It really wouldn’t. Last 10 home games and 2 bonus points would get you 12 points. You’re probably right that 10% would be too high but I have seen plenty of people taking their kids to away games to suggest it’s probably a bit higher than 1%. On 11 points as chose not to go to the friendly with Costa Rica about what seems like 5 years ago. Not in a million years did I think that decision would cost me a ticket for Euro 20! Should really start going to the odd away game again but no use crying over spilt milk now. 😘 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niallb Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 Seems them down south have got their allocation sorted and planning to sell their “home team” tickets from next Tuesday. They have 2968 for the game against us mainly in the €50 category. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kumnio Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 I’m on 24 points, so will be guaranteed a ticket for all 3 games, but very much doubt I can be arsed going to all 3, people I go with are saying the same. I think the tickets will get to the lower points ranges due to the whole debacle of this. No sitting with mates, staggered entry, expensive tickets, pubs and travel issues.

jcluk Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 2 hours ago, Texas Pete said: No, the fairest way of doing it would be for UEFA to give the SFA an allocation of tickets and the SFA could sell them directly to SSC members. Buying through the UEFA website will be a pain in the arse because you won’t be able to buy for your friends and family group. I wasn't suggesting this sale should be open to non- members. Quite the opposite. Problems will arise because the SFA won’t know who already has tickets and they also won’t know when a member has bought a ticket so when will they know to release more access codes? Hopefully it won’t be as bad as I fear but we’ll find out when we eventually get our emails. My understanding is the SFA will know who has tickets after the ballot and will cross reference ticket purchases against the SSC membership. The rules are one ticket per person so they will have it covered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have no clue how many tickets we are getting and even less of a clue as to how many members already have tickets for each match. ATAC expectation based on percentages of approved capacity.

bossman4 Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 So based on that English allocation, is it right that hosts get 19% of capicity? If thats the case then the FA have taken about 1300 tickets, I can only presume for WAGS, spnonsors and celebrities? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlfieMoon Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 Another interesting thing will be how UEFA go about re-selling any unsold tickets. (Thinking about the Czech/Croat allocations). Do they add them to the SSC allocation to distribute with more access codes or do they sell them in a public sale. If there were to be a public sale after all the ticket cancellations, that would be a kick in the baws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. However, do have name and address for tickets to be sent to. UEFA have said they will enforce the strict one ticket per person rule so must be a way they can check and coordinate with the national team supporters clubs.

Possibly but I’m pretty sure there are data protection laws against sharing information like that. Will be interesting to see how it works.

They’re all digital. You could previously buy a souvenir ticket as an add on but I doubt if that option will still exist at this late stage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beauvais tartan army Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 One major issue UEFA has that both Croatia and Czech Republic are on the amber list which means people from there (outside the sports bubble) need to quarantine for 10 days when they arrive and take two covid tests. How many fans are going to put up with that? Maybe we haven't heard anything because UEFA haven't confirmed what is happening with their allocated tickets?

Not sure how it will work but not all countries have a supporters club (not sure if Czechs or Croatia do). To buy a ticket from UEFA in these sales you do need an access code from your FA but the FAs can allocate the codes as they see fit. There will definitely be Czechs and Croatians at the games but whether they will sell their full allocations or not I don’t know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’d think they’d offer any unsold tickets to the SFA but common sense doesn’t seem to be a thing that UEFA is familiar with. The tickets will sell out either way so they probably won’t care if they go to SSC members or any Tom, Dick or Harry off the street that may never have been to Hampden before in their puffs.

Aye, sorry 16%, looking at England’s tickets so games appear more popular with the vip/sponsors/friends and families than others do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wanderer Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 15 minutes ago, Beauvais tartan army said: Would they be able to buy them though? Would their tickets not be allocated similar to ours? Representatives of Croatian and Czech FA said at U.K. Fans conference couple weeks back that they have only sold a small amount to home fans and do not expect to sell many, but aiming to sell to U.K. based fans. I know a number of the Ukraine community in U.K. and when they need tickets for games involving the national team or club teams when they play in the U.K., they do it through the Ukrainian embassy in London who get them from the Ukraine FA.
