Euro 2012 ticket exchange thread

[holidaysong]

I'm also sorted for Ireland vs. Croatia game so can you remove me from that please. Like above, can you leave me on for Spain and Italy.

[Poor Student]

There are Cat 1 tickets for the Croatia game available NOW from the UEFA ticket portal at UEFA.com. A bit pricey at €120 plus €24 booking fee but if you want to guarantee a ticket, they're there, I've just bought two.

Is there any on sale for the other two games or is it just the Croatia game still has tickets let because it's lower key? I'm not too lazy to find out but someone else I know is looking for tickets and I don't want to register.

[Closed Account 2]

The only Ireland game was that Croatia game... Italy Croatia was also for sale.

[brine3]

Put me down for 2 for Spain if anybody has any.

Flights booked already, haha.

Worried that there might be a lot of corporate non-football types at the Spain match.

[Closed Account 2]

Ireland Italy is on the main UEFA site for 120EUR incase anyone is interested.

I have got my ticket for that game via the UEFA site, so please take me off the Ireland Italy list but keep me on the Ireland Spain list.

[brendy_éire]

2 for each please.

[BonnieShels]

Ireland Italy back up there now.

[Nah Nah Nah Nah]

Take me off the list for the Italy game please Stu

[holidaysong]

You can take me off for Italy please, got them on the UEFA site. Can you leave me on for Spain though. Cheers.

[pineapple stu]

List updated.

Is the UEFA website the only way of getting tickets? Looks like there won't be many spares if that's the case.

[holidaysong]

Just got tickets for the Spain game so you can take me off the list altogether. Neutrals can apply through the UEFA site but applications for the FAI's allocation opened today too for season ticket holders, etc. so it's not just the UEFA site.

[IsMiseSean]

I got a 1 ticket for the Spain game last night of the UEFA site.
I can be updated to just needing one ticket now, if that's allowed?

[pineapple stu]

Yep, one ticket is allowed alright. I've edited you.

[Nah Nah Nah Nah]

Got sorted for the Spain game as well so you can take me off the list for that game as well please Stu. This UEFA site is great. I don't know what everyone is complaining about!

[Bungle]

Lads, I got a Spain ticket last night and a Croatia ticket earlier in the week. I only need an Italy ticket now.

[brine3]

What time did you get the Spain ticket?

Judging by the masses of Ukraine tickets available all week I'd say the locals bought up all the tickets and are looking to flog them. They knew they couldn't flog the Ukraine ones for big prices so dumped them on the ticket portal. I'd say the chance of buying a ticket on the street over in Poland will be quite high.

That's what UEFA get for selling tickets to matches before the fixtures are known. A truly insane practise.

[ArdeeBhoy]

Is the ticket portal not, as per the other thread, selling tickets not bought by locals?

Hence the dearer ones being available and more in the Ukraine.

And UEFA/FIFA have always, wrongly, sold their tickets this way for as long as I can recall.

[brine3]

My understanding is that it's a resale portal for people who want to get rid of tickets they are not interested in. If you applied for a match in Warsaw and it turns out to be Poland-Greece then you can sell your tickets if you are not interested.

Ireland tickets seem hard to come by. The punters may have copped on to the fact that they can get rid of them for more than face value. Difficult to get rid of Ukraine-Sweden tickets though, so the punters dump those on the official portal to be shot of them.

[Junior]

To be fair though, plenty of tickets have now come up for the 3 IRL games over the last 10 days. ESP game was a bit a slower but the last few days has seen fans start to get sorted with these as well - as above posts point out and plenty on ybig successful. Not as many tickets as fans looking but I dont think anyone will be without tickets when it comes to KO time.

[Ari Gold]

Wanted: 2 tickets for Spain and 2 tickets for Italy game.

Thanks

[Docboy]

You can take me off the list thanks, managed to get tickets to all 3 games. Shame they're cat 1 but hopefully I'll manage to pick up cheaper ones closer to the summer. Might also have two cat 1 tickets for the Italy game going, will post back here if that is the case.

[Silly Billy G]

I got Italy tickets on uefa portal, not cheap but thems the breaks.

I still need spain ones if possible

[philkildare]

Hi, can I [lease be put on the list for 2 for Croatia game and 2 for Spain game??

Cheers!

[secerts]

can you put me on list for 2 tickets italy game?

[elroy]

I can be removed from the list for Croatia tickets, still looking for two Spain and Italy.

I have one spare for Croatia. For now Id ideally like to exchange it plus the difference in cash for two for Spain or Italy, so if anyone fits that description, let me know. Thanks.

[mypost]

That's what UEFA get for selling tickets to matches before the fixtures are known. A truly insane practise.

The idea I think, is to get the travel agents and neutrals fixed up, before the games are known. UEFA do the same for their club finals. Last year, 6,000 tickets were made available exclusively to us Irish for the UEFA Cup Final, even though we wouldn't have a LOI representative in the final.

Selling tickets to neutrals works better in Africa/Asia/South America tournaments, where distances to travel are vast, and cash available is scarce, but it doesn't work quite so well in Europe. The Heysel disaster was caused in part, by making a "neutral" area available for locals, tickets were bought by fans of both sides, from them. Both clubs pointed it out to UEFA beforehand, but nothing was done, and we saw what happened on the night.

[French Toasht]

I got Italy tickets on the portal back in December. The tickets have gone into the "my tickets" section on the portal and my account has been debited the cost of the tickets but I never received a confirmation email. Is anyone in a similar situation?

[Derek Finnegan]

Can I be added to the Croatia Ticket Thread please? I'd like 2 tickets.

[DeLorean]

Same as most... 2 tickets for each game please.

I'm sorted for the Croatia match now so I can be removed from that list. Thanks.

[Hibs4Ever]

Can I be added for 2 tickets for Italy match?

[Soko]

Can you stick me down for a couple of tickets for each game but realistically, I'd just take the one.


I'm traveling from China and I'm happy enough to just catch one of the games to be honest. Cheers

[ofjames]

Can you put me down for 1 ticket for the Spain and Italy games?

[brendy_éire]

Got CAT 1 for all games, so I can be taken off the list. Expensive, but better than nothing.

[Paddy the Dog]

My application was unsuccessful, as was my mate's application. Please add me to the Spain list for 2 tickets, Stu.

[Trainee]

Please add me to list for all 3 games - 1 ticket for each game. thanks
