Euro 2020 Dublin tickets

I've no doubt it will be chaos and that the event junkies will be well looked after before real  fans.

To be honest if our games are in Dublin il probably not even bother il Just watch it on the box. On another note did most genuine fans not get sorted for france assume 2020 will be the same.

55% of which go to the 'football family' and 15% to anyone who can afford Abbey travel prices.
So that's 5,250 tickets for fans. It'll be some craic when the majority of ST holders get told to go feck themselves.

Ruining the whole spirit of the tournament which half the fun is travelling to a country for two weeks at least where you mix with fans from all over Europe.

yep, a disastrous idea this imo.

I also hope that in the event of us failing to qualify, Irish fans leave the tickets to fans of the competing teams and dont go along as neutrals. It would be a shame if thousands of fans travelled to Dublin to end up watching in a pub, or worse didnt come to Dublin at all because they had no tickets. Sure when have Irish people ever shamelessly jumped on a sporting bandwagon in pursuit of a big day out? Unheard of!!

I wouldn't be so sure it will happen. Didn't uefa fail to sell out the Europa league final a few years back at LR?!?!

I vaguely remember when applying for Euro 2016 tickets in the original ballot for random stadia without knowing who would be playing that French fans could give their FFF membership number. Not sure if this meant that their ST holders got priority or had an allocation or what but can't see why they'd ask if not. 

I doubt it would have anything to do with Season Ticket, Colum mentioned when the ticket for Euro 2016 were first released they initially went on sale locally something like 10% of stadium were you could buy say tickets for games in your location.

I'd imagine it would something similar this time round fro each of the locations. You could then if you didn't want ticket put them on the resale portal.

I really cannot understand what your problem is with Irish people buying tickets for Euro 2020 games if we don't qualify. We'll never host the tournament outright so this is the only opportunity we'll ever have. I'll be applying for tickets regardless of if we qualify or not. Do you think that fans in other host countries don't buy tickets for games in their cities?

Of course football fans here will apply for tickets. As you have noted, this happens in every host country and there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. I'm just not a fan of the horrendous event junkie culture we have developed here in Ireland. I'd hate to see regular match going supporters from here and from the competing nations miss out on tickets to some c*nt who has zero interest but wants to go for the day out so that he can stick selfies online and be seen at the big event.
