Thats how I usually pay but they send a new password for each match but hopefully the letter will make it in time or i'm sure someone in the ticket office could sort it out if need be

Do block bookers get preference for the away leg too?

Think they give preference to people who have been to other away games but not sure.
I got my invoice today in the uk (live in the midlands) just before the posties put their feet up prior to getting down to some serious overtime in time for christmas.
Hopefully everyone else uk based will get theirs today too, if not i'd guess an email to the ticket office for a password will be needed.
some nut is already selling 2 home tie tickets on ebay for e550, perhaps he needs the money to pay for ryanair flights the following Wednesday, shocking

Will the demand really be that high? 5 times face value (or thereabouts). 75,000 capacity.
Hopefully, he'll be stuck with them and get rid at face value. tw@t

Hope mine arrives in post today before the strike...
I did e-mail the ticket office for my password, as I always pay online but no response....I'm a nervous wreck before a ball is even kicked

mine was received at home, but sure the mother threw it out, like she has done so many bloody times before. She opens it has a look and then thinks its time to throw it in the bin :evil:
Ive emailed them for the password they usually take a day or so to get back but im thinking they are probably fierce busy now.....tried ringing too but sure ye cant even leave a message because the mailboxes are too full.

Paul, hope your Mother hasn't binned the form! :)
Yeah, I expect they are snowed under in the Ticket Office - e-mailed them Monday night. They have been good in the past, so won't hassle them but may panic tonight if the letter doesn't arrive today!

She has, before she did worse and threw it in the fire, i went mental and had to leave the house(i mean i decided :) ) at the time. Dad went through the bin looking for it, so its more than likely in the fire again, the last time though it was for just a crappie qualifier so they replied in a day. Now im kinda worried.

Well, my mother chucked a programme and fanzine in the bin once "in error" and also taped over my Charlatans video compilation with Heartbeat (took me years to compile)...sorry going off-topic now!!! Thankfully I changed the address with the ticket office when I moved out!
Have to wait until after 3 today to see if the post has arrived - although I guess Tuesday is the deadline for online payments so have Sat/Mon and Tuesday post...I'm rambling now, can you feel the panic?

Ha, my mother watches heartbeat too or used to anyway and she often recorded but luckily i dont keep anything i really want at home!!! I moved out 10 years ago when i went to college but ive always left the tickets go there as i dont trust them getting over to england in time. Having said that i think i booked my tickets for the france game on my tan address so i hope they arrive. didnt trust the fai not sending them out before the home game!!!

SG meant to say earlier i can understand yer mam taping over the charlatans, completely understandable in fact it was probably a very wise move. At least you could sit through an hour of heartbeat if ye really had to :D

I hate touts, we have given tickets away for free before, while being hassled by touts that wanted to buy them cheap to resell them.
That fella saying he is a block booker for 15 years, just rubs it in more for those who can't get on the block booking scheme.

Shouldn't someone just point the FAI in his direction (i.e. send them the eBay link) if he's a block booker?
*Edit. Can't see anyone selling home tickets on eBay?

I thought about that, but this is the FAI we are talking about
A friend of mine has been promised a family ticket for this game. Do you know what this consists of?
Is it 4 seperate tickets?
What section of the ground?
What age do you youngsters have to be under?
paul_oshea
26/10/2009, 5:29 PM
a family ticket = 4 x 70 euro tickets id say :D

Most likely sections 310-312 of the lower cusack. I don't know of any others.
Children's tickets are 10 euro each. Certainly plenty of secondary school students in the seats at the Bulgaria match. Think they are called schoolboy/schoolgirl tickets. Anybody over 18 would be really chancing it.
They are only distributed through the clubs and the relevant leagues.

Never heard of a family ticket before, I used to get schoolkids tickets for the south terrace in Lansdowne, but they were on theri own, no adults in the section.
I know the kids section in Croker is in the corner of the Cusack near the Davin stand.
