If you are to believe what we are told, friendly games dont count on your record, so the french game wont matter.
time is the stuff that life is made of, don't waste it.

I have multiple people registered under 1 account. They all get tickets in their own name, each ticket required is applied using their own name.

So he kept me soul for ransom.

Think alot of people are in the same boat, fitting all in over such a short space on time will be difficult.

If you apply for away ticket via the portal then you are a member of Fans Direct.

That's what I thought anyway

Ah ok so, I just never signed up using the form. Must have been an automatic thing then as soon as i used the portal. 

Makes sense. Cheers for that

You should always register for tickets in your own name.

As requested in a thread.

Where can I get a ticket?

Register here - https://www.fai.ie/ireland/fans-direct-form, tickets typically go on sale 1-3 months before a game. Anyone can register, even if you've never been to an away or haven't had a season ticket before.

You can also apply through a supporters club, they manage their ticket allocation themselves.

Is it easy to get a ticket?

The vast majority of games are under-subscribed, games away to top seeds, any of the British teams and to smaller stadiums are less likely to have spare tickets. 

How do I build up a record?

It's best to go to games that fewer people will go to, likely 4th, 5th or 6th seeds and destinations that are harder to get to. Besides, these are usually better trips.


Feel free to ask any questions, there's no stupid ones, we all started somewhere.
