YBIG Independent Supporters Mandate Group - Statement on increased ticket allocation for away games

As all members of the YBIG Independent Supporters Mandate will be aware, we have spent the last year and a half meeting and engaging with the FAI on a number of issues.

Chief of these issues has been the below.

Firstly, to increase the current Fans Direct / Supporters Clubs allocation from 40% to a more realistic 70%. This is more comparable to other associations, some of whom reward fans with over 90% of ticket allocations. This would leave 15% for the football family and 15% for the FAI's selected travel partner.

Secondly, for a universal scheme to be brought in where all members of the scheme are treated equally. The abiding principle would be that the more away games you attend the more entitled you are to away tickets, provided you also hold a season ticket.  This would apply to independent fans and Supporters Clubs members alike.

As a result of these meetings, in addition to the FAI’s meetings with the Confederation of Republic of Ireland Supporters Clubs, the FAI have informed us that they are increasing the percentage of away tickets available to Fans Direct and Supporters Clubs from the existing 40% to 65%.

Although this is below our proposed 70%, we consider it a very positive step forward and welcome the FAI proposal. We believe that this decision is a reflection of the work that ourselves and the Association have undertaken to rebuild a working relationship.

On the second point, we have also been told that a more open scheme is being worked on and will be discussed in more detail at our scheduled February meeting. Obviously, we will not be commenting on this until we have had time to examine any new scheme in detail.

We look forward to continuing discussions with the FAI and CRISC in this regard.

As per our mandate, we will also continue to raise and engage with the FAI on any matters that affect independent supporters. Minutes from our January meeting with the FAI will follow in due course.

May we also take this opportunity to wish our members, all Ireland fans and the team, management and staff a very happy and successful 2019.

If people are happy with the work that the committee have done on behalf of Independent (and indeed all) Ireland fans but haven't yet signed up to the mandate, then please do so at the below link. 

It doesn't cost anything and the more voices we represent then the more of a mandate we have to push for the changes that we believe are for the benefit of everyone.

Fair play to all who worked on this. It’s a great boost especially ahead of Gibraltar.
