Wouldnt be surprised if the have a certain number of tickets ted into a contract. Abbey could sell up to 2,000 per game imho (not saying there'd be 2,000 interested in the 3 game package but if they were doing game by game there would definitely be high interest). And Im not saying they'll get near 2000 but Id imagine up to 1k at a guess.

They may say something along the lines of: "We are entitled to 8 per cent of tickets, we will be trying to get more because there is a huge demand. We will have our official sponsors like Abbey Travel to look after as well as the diehard fans."

People may decide to go through Abbey instead of independently

No, emailed the ticket office earlier in the week about '14 campaign block book / season tickets and they got back this morning to say they won't have any info until next year.

I think the 8% is gone but it is something like 448,000 tickets for the 31 games shared between the competing countries. 

Abbey will take whatever they can get and will be very attractive for those who wouldn't get tickets otherwise.  I'd expect to see lots of day trips as well particularly if in Ukraine. 

Other demands include, sponsors, council members, players families, clubs and leagues.

Vantage Club holders will no doubt get some too.

There will be very few for fans outside where GS has outlined.
If we draw a host nation, it will certainly be squeaky bum time for that match but any others should not be too bad me thinks

Reality is though we won't get much more than our allocation from a lot of other countries too.

Holland, Germany, England and Russia will all sellout their complete allocation.  Sweden will probably do the same at least in Poland.  Croatia will also have decent support.  From a ticket point of view you want Spain, Italy and Portugal. 

Our opponents are often a good source of tickets too btw.

i have utter faith in the FAI that this will be another fiasco. I would say abbey are getting 50% of the allocation.

This should be fun alright - when was back in dublin for home leg against Estonia my brother brought my post from home and guess what was in it a ticket for the away leg - they had also sent me one to Luxembourg - have no faith in the ticket office at all....

For once the FAI have sent a communication out early outlining thier plans... that has to be an improvement from before.
 
We will all be sorted for tkts...

Bear in mind that 3, Aviva & Carlsberg etc will have to get sorted out of this too.

It'd say at least the other 50% will go through Abbey as it would prob be a logistical nightmare for the FAI to distribute these tickets given the system they have in place at the moment. Very disappointing from our point of view though.

no problem signing a 60 month contact with 3mobile or carlsberg for that matter, if they give me a ticket
time is the stuff that life is made of, don't waste it.
