As noted in last nights program there's going to be a three match ticket package for Poland, Scotland & England. Any news on pricing for this? |

3 * €38 = €114 ...... Season Ticket €160
 Unless they're planning on charging €85 for Cat B V England then there's no value in the new ST.

€100 would have been the perfect price. I think the price will keep tickets out of the Polish hands but not the Scots. €100 to €160 would have been ideal to cover all the levels of the ground. They should really target the Christmas market. Three games + Ireland jersey would be a great present. However i see they have in bold lettering that tickets will not be received before Christmas. They really are idiotic when it comes to this stuff in the FAI. Little Johnny who usually supports rugby getting three soccer tickets and the jersey would be a great present for a kid. |

Ridiculous pricing structure. Typical from the FAI. They have an opportunity to capitalize on decent fixtures and get a full house but they price a lot out of the market although pricing for kids is good. Upper Tier - €100 Lower Tier - €120 Premium - €140 ----- This would have been the perfect structure to get everyone behind the team. Anyone know if ticketmaster can do a "only post to Ireland" function. We need to keep the Scots out of our section. |

It had to be that price IMO. I could be wrong but as far as I remember the extra England ticket would have been €50 if you wanted it when buying season ticket. If the new hat-trick package was €100 then that would leave tickets for the qualifiers €25 each. I reckon the poles will buy packages and sell the England and Scotland tickets handy enough |

Ticket office just rang me.I was asking about my deposit for Scotland game and queried this when they called. They basically said they are charging those prices because of the good fixtures. They can post out a gift card type thing before xmas and tickets will be sent on in the new year.  If the FAI didnt want away fans getting tickets in the home section couldnt they just refuse anyone without an Irish address?

Then they're alienating fans like me living outside of Ireland, which makes another problem for them. The solution is to accept fans with a purchase history. Either an FAI or Ticketmaster account.

| They should offer season ticket holders/Loi clubs/supporter clubs a chance to buy extras before putting them on general sale to limit the number that could potentially fall into poles/scots hands. This along with the hat-trick package is about as much they can do |

Season tickets were €138, €186 and €246. If tickets are €120, €160 and €200, that means you've got three games already for €18, €26 and €46, with the next three games being way, way, way more expensive (although of course there is a difference between the games). €100, €130 and €160 would even be fair. However, if they can sell them at those prices, fair play to them, but I think they might be charging a bit much. Not having them on sale before Christmas is absolutely retarded, though. -------------

| quite pricey. Our 135 Euro SS tickets were Cat C were they? What was the Cat B for the 6 games? I was saying to me dad last night that they would probably be 100. If you break down the price for the tickets on qualifiers and friendlies on a match by match basis in the first half versus the second half then it's a lot dearer which would be fair enough of the FAI had a ticketing policy like category A for big games and B for others but that is not the case so it seems a little unfair or another word greedy! |

Yeah, exactly. The three match package is basically the remaining matches on the season ticket so it's close to the same thing. You might not get automatic priority renewal for the same seats for next year the same as a season ticket holder would but, frankly, you didn't buy a season ticket at the start of the season, so I have no real problem with that. The *idea* is a very good one (as in, only having these "hat trick" tickets for sale until shortly before each match at which stage individual tickets go on sale) but the execution may not be the best in the world. Obviously, there are concerns over the pricing level (although if they manage to sell all they want to at the prices they have set, all good) and the Christmas thing as I pointed out before. The potential for a jersey & ticket package (which I think they put together last year), or a family package (including jersey, if desired), might increase sales. I have one other concern - the priority given to season ticket holders to buy extra individual tickets for the England game. Again, in theory, this is a good idea. However, basically, for every extra ticket a season ticket holder buys for the England game, that leaves one less seat for the three game package. Season ticket holders should also be offered priority access to the three match package. If they only buy extra tickets for the England game, it means problems. It means they then have to sell tickets for the same seats *individually* for the Scotland and Poland games. I think we all know where the majority of those individual tickets will go. Season ticket holders should be given a discount on extra tickets for all three games compared to the list prices of €120, €160 and €200, assuming the FAI want the stadium full of Ireland fans in the home end and not away fans. With the England tickets on sale for €49.50, it would be easy to persuade someone to pay twice that for tickets for Scotland and Poland on top, and it would remove those tickets from Scottish or Polish hands. €100, €140 and €180 for the "hat trick" packages for people who are already season ticket holders would seem fair enough, albeit they then lose priority access to even more England tickets (fair enough, frankly, as they would already have used up that access). Those prices are basically just a €20 discount on the full prices. I know I could persuade a few mates to pay €100 for tickets for the three games but could well have difficulty telling them tickets are €120 or €160. -------------

I would buy a season ticket if i lived at home,but the truth is that i do go to way more away games than homes,( this campaign Georgia,Germany,Gibraltar and Poland away) , have booked flights for Poland at home and will book Scotland at home soon,doubt i will have the time off to make the England game,so i really hope there will be an option to purchase single tickets for each game. ------------- Nathan Collins - The best Kildare baller since Johnny Doyle! |

Yeah, of course season tickets were great value. I just think they may have priced these wrong and may have difficulty selling packages at this price. That's my point; I am not complaining about the prices of season tickets at all. I am a season ticket holder (obviously) and I have no need to buy any of these packages. I want the FAI to sell these tickets to Ireland fans and I want the stadium to be full for each of the three games, with Ireland fans, but I think the FAI may have priced these tickets a little higher than they should have. I don't think they will sell them all at these prices. Like I said, if they sell them at these prices, great. Also, it turns out they are on sale right now, just that tickets won't be delivered until shortly before the matches, which is fine. You get a downloadable voucher yoke, which is grand. I am *not* complaining about them being "too dear" insofar as I would be willing to pay that much if I wasn't a season ticket holder, just that I think they won't sell all the tickets they want to at that price, and it will result in individual tickets going on sale and being bought by away fans. -------------

Season tickets in the sh*ttest section were €138 for 7 games. So the Cup final and the 3 internationals this year were only worth €18?! This is a package so this should also provide value, if not as much as the initial ST. I think €90 would be far more reasonable and how could STers complain It would mean they got 4 games for 48 quid. €12 a match.If you want to be pedantic, a round €100 for the 3 game package would be a lot more attractive than the overpriced current offering.

Well, €138, €186 and €246 were the prices originally. Removing €20 for each of the three games to date (category C), plus €10 for the cup final, leaves you at about €70, or half the original cost. Removing only €18 is crazy and (this is the important point) not really an incentive for people to pay that for three games. Remember, these are people who were not big enough fans to buy season tickets in the first place, so now you are trying to sell them tickets at a significant premium to what more dedicated fans already paid for season tickets. Any economics undergraduate will tell you that you aren't going to sell many tickets with that strategy. Demand has lowered (that is, season ticket holders have bought tickets already), supply is still plentiful, so increasing prices, by this much, is mad..... and increases the odds of single game ticket sales and away fans in the home end. It should have been no more than €100 (€99 would make for easier advertising, too) for the cheapest tickets for the three games. -------------

Or how about qualifiers and England are €45 each friendlys €30 each or €240, so the ST gives a discount of 40% approx and a free ticket to the FAI Cup Final, a great deal for ST holders. A hat trick package gives a €5 per match discount. Will they sell the tickets at €120, who knows but they can always reduce them if not selling, of the sell too cheap they cant increase the price ------------- I know nothing :-) |

I've not problem with people who bought tickets first day getting better prices, it's only right that it works out at €20/game or whatever for them.
My point is that the seats I normally sit in were €37 for the Germany game 2 years ago, likely to be the same again (So in theory €114 - €130/€140 for the three this year).
If I want to buy those as a season ticket they want €160.

GF I know the ST was value. And nobody is disputing that. It was €20 for a Cat C for the Oman, Gib and US matches. I dont know how that has any relevance though? They cant reduce the price. If they did, it would mean that they would have very unhappy customers who purchased before the price reduction. All that this inflated priced package is going to do is put people off buying these. This will result in more tickets going on general sale. This will result in more home fans in our section. Do you want this? Because if you don't your argument doesn't stack up

People seem to be looking way too much into this. As reported at the time the season ticket was very good value and made sense to buy if you were going to the majority of the games included. If you missed out on it at the time thats unfortunate, but surely people didn't expect it to be half the price now given the three most attractive games are still to come? On another point, can season tickets still buy any additional tickets for England game or has that ship sailed? ------------- Some Clubs Are Bigger Than Others |

Extra tickets can be bought for €49.50 each for the England game. In terms of the price of the tickets, the vast majority of those complaining are already season ticket holders (albeit there are a few others). I know I want the stadium to be full of Ireland fans for the Scotland, England and Poland games. I think the best way of ensuring that is lower prices than what they are proposing for the hat trick package. I'm not saying I expect it to be half the price of the season ticket as a matter of principle (it shouldn't be, frankly, season ticket holders deserve a good discount for their loyalty) but it should be a bit more than €18 cheaper! They have to priced to attract fans who weren't committed enough to buy a season ticket in the first place, that's the point. An €18 discount is unlikely to do that. -------------

It will be interesting to see how this goes. I know 4 lads all mid 20's who were at the match in Glasgow [home tickets bought from SFA] who bought the 3 match packet yesterday. Glasgow was their 1st away match for all 4 lads and only 2 of the 4 had ever being at an Ireland match before. They realise the season ticket was great value and were asking me how/when the could buy next time around. ------------- I don't know what more we can do in terms of being open and transparent - John Delaney |

Wow, that's ridiculous. So it's not possible for people to be fans and not go to every game? Believe it or not, but some people here are giant fans but can't get out of work to travel to every game, or can't afford what it costs to travel to every game. I wasn't at the Oman game but I go to every game I possibly can - watching Ireland games means the world to me and has done for almost 30 years, even if I am at watching on tv at home with my Dad.

The FAI are entitled to restrict sales to Irish fans only. They have a right to eject any away fans found in the home section. EU nationals (or non EU nationals) who are fans of the opposing sides should contact their own football association for tickets. Neutral fans can sit in the home end without colours. I've no problem with fans just attending the "glamour games" in Dublin. No loyal fans can complain about being denied a home ticket. The FAI had season tickets on sale for months. We don't have 51,000 fans who wish to follow us at every (or almost every) home game. The more home fans the better and hopefully some will become season ticket holders. |
Posted By: Stoked Up

Indeed. On other threads many here were calling for the FAI to offer additional tickets to season ticket holders etc, etc., in order to keep Scottish/Polish fans from over running us and making it like a home game for them. For once the FAI have got something right. The only people who'll be grumbling about the price are the ones who used to /*should've bought a season ticket in the first place. * I know there are many Irish who live outside the country and cant attend all games, but there was a time in the old LR that they would've taken a BB ticket to ensure that they had at least got a ticket for the important games and offloaded same ticket when they were unable to to travel. ST should not be any different now that watching the team is coming back into fashion. |

No,just that they will go on individual sale as they realize fans who live abroad cant go to all 3 games etc and to give the Hat Trick time as it only went on sale on Wednesday. ------------- Nathan Collins - The best Kildare baller since Johnny Doyle! |

How much are individual qualifier games anyway? Im presuming the england game is 50 as thats what they offered us at the time Maybe a dumbass question here, but can you still by a SS season ticket for 138? As that is 22 cheaper than the surrounding sections

Just back on the board, usually an interested reader rather than contributor.... I "used" to be a Block Booker since the scheme started, along with my Dad. We haven't been to any matches this season and are considering the 3 match package. The BB invites stopped after Oman. Does anyone know if the scheme has now been replaced by ST? Or indeed if the 3-match package is a variation on the ST? Cheers |

I can't speak for Gaz, but from me and my brothers POV, who had been BB's for over 20 years and some had been to Germany, USA and Italy, but found themselves *excluded this time. So if that's begrudging lads who don't go to to home games and somehow jumped on the tournament bandwagon, and got tickets, yes. I'm all for newbies who want tickets for the upcoming 3 games and welcome them and the FAI's initiative to get them onboard, but like all the fans here who feel aggrieved over not getting tickets for the Scotland game, we felt the exact same over Poland. * I got one ticket off the back of my clubs vantage scheme, but my 3 brothers were all shafted.

Personally scotland was my first away game, only 21 now so the last campaign would have been the only one id have been able to go to anyway and lack of money or having to work stopped me from going to thise away games (had the Leaving Cert on at the same time as the Euros which sickened me) had it booked back in February. I loved it and i will be going to as many aways as possible (definitely to warsaw and possibly to Faro if i can manage that one financially as well) but to be honest its kind of a bittersweet feeling to see it. On the one hand its great to see so many Irish travelling over as it kind of gives you the impression that there's a buzz around the team again, on the other hand i've been to fairly close to every home game friendly or otherwise since my first game which was Russia at home in a friendly in 2002, my dad buying the tickets until i was old enough to pay my own way in. Ive been to the Andorras and the San Marinos and you cannot shift a ticket for those for love nor money. Even Slovakia in the last Euros qualifying campaign i could basically move around at will and sit in any seat around me for the best possible view, and this for what was going to be a tight game! One person i knew in Poland had even bet a good bit of money on Ireland not to qualify for the Euros and when they did, he moaned about all the money he lost. But right enough he was there for the big piss up. I might be wrong but there seems to be a lot of that and it does make me disillusioned to see such a small crowd at some of our previous games at home when i'd have done anything to have been in Bari, Moscow etc ------------- No thank you Turkish......I'm sweet enough |

I do think the ticket package is somewhat of a good idea though, as its possible that a lot of people will just come for the England match (maybe some who have no interest in following actual Ireland football at all) so incentivising people to buy the three tickets is a good idea. ------------- No thank you Turkish......I'm sweet enough |
