True but in the end there were spares which suggests that the real demand for tickets was less than supply.   However due to the process you often get an artificial demand which means some people missed out but would have got sorted in the end

Think his point was the allocation was 900 and they were sorted.....now it's 2,300 and they're weren't

Well there was about 100 official tickets for Andorra so I wonder did all 12 get tickets?

My point here being we see this "I've been to every game for years and got all my tickets from the fai", when in reality there is a little embellishing going on

Lads,

We highlighted here so we could talk about it to see if others had the same problem.

We are two separate groups of 6 in different parts of the country.

Philly there is no embellishing here. Yes we were in Andorra.

Got direct from the fai? in your own names etc? as if so, you were in a very exclusive club as was less than 100 available to fans from memory (think players got a %) and a good old melt down on here over it. I'd be amazed if your groups where getting these under record and direct from the fai for Andorra and got refused for Denmark as that would be a proper scandal and I'm sure a few more lads on here would have heard about it by now.

Anyway, best of luck getting the required tickets

Andorra is not in the last ten so is not part of the criteria for this game. So it's a red herring. If the lads were at the last ten away games not including Scotland and had them all in their own name and they didn't get a ticket that's a joke and should be sorted.

As far as I know he was told them games can't be transferred to his account either which is crazy as it's because of this he been let down again


The solution for this is everyone to apply on their own account for all games. Why apply for some on his own and others on a friend's?

There's been numerous reports of the FAI allocating half the number of tickets requested across the board to groups/SCs. It's a mess, but you've little come back compared to having your own individual account.


I agree having all games on own account is the only way to go but surely can't be that hard to transfer the games from the other account to his own when his details would of been given when applying for them

Think he got tickets on the other account after been rejected for Glasgow. Has got all tickets for the current campaign on his own account (only game missed was Serbia although Wales ticket wasn't sourced direct from fai)

Was said on the last email received on the ybig mandate that people leaving clubs to go to fans direct etc can bring their account records with them might be something to check at next meeting about people being able to transfer records from 1 fans direct account to another at least that way more people will have accurate account details


There is no issue getting historical ticket records transfered between accounts once proof is there that it's genuine. I know for a fact it's been done before with no problem.
