Probably the best bet. Maybe email the ticket office with your ticket request just. That was the previous method.Quote:

Don't have any ticket stubs to prove it though, I'm not very nostalgic in that way...Quote:

Yup, FAI have now put me down in their system as a known away supporter and I have filed my ticket application on the away portal.
Thanks for the tips, looking forward to the match!
Does anybody know where about in the stadium the Irish fans will be situated?

I tried to have a quick look by going through the process of purchasing some tickets via the Swedish eticket service and then by seeing if any sections were not available to purchase, you could probably work it out by default - However there are a million and one sections that you can buy for, so it wasnt that straight forward!!!!!
You can still apply to the FAI for tickets for this one, if you are wanting to get in with the Ireland Fans, there will be no problem getting tickets (see above posts).
Thanks Junior but my mate in Sweden was asking because his Swedish girlfriends dad wants to go and he wants to know where the Irish fans will be because he wanted to get a ticket near that area. I'll be applying for my tickets through the FAI as usual for this one. Will be there from Thursday till Sunday so can't wait.
Actually my mate found out that we are in sections 122-124 so we're in the corner of the stadium.
This is some info I got from our hotel.
The best ways to come here from the airport is either:
By bus, http://www.flygbussarna.se/en you can book online and I believe It’s cheaper to book both ways at the same time.
By train, http://www.arlandaexpress.com/default.aspx?page=3&= Same deal here.
By taxi, the cheapest one I know of is http://www.airportcab.se/index.php?o...idan&Itemid=19 The price from arlanda is 475 SEK. (55€-60€).
So if you've got 3 or 4 to share a taxi 20 euro each way pp is just the job!
anyone flying from London Friday afternoon?
I would like to share a taxi as its about 5 I land I think.
I think the return fare is twice the single fare.Quote:

Bloody hell, that Arlanda train isn't cheap. I booked a train from Malmo to Stockhom for 290 SEK. That's 600 km!
Tip for when you are in Stockholm, you can get a metro travel card for the Stockholm region. I think it costs 100 SEK per 24 hours. You can buy them in the Pressbyran newsagents which are in nearly all stations.
There's a commuter train from the airport (Arlanda) in addition to the express train. The commuter train is about €14/15.
The stadium is between the airport and the city center. AFAIK if you take the train, you'll need to travel to the city center first and get a second train back out to the stadium. If you get the aircoach, it's about a 30 min walk from the nearest aircoach stop to the stadium. Note the aircoach doesn't take cash so either book online or have your card at the ready.
Does anybody know when we'll get confirmation about whether we got tickets for this game or not?
Not sure, deadline to apply was on 22nd Feb. Im sure the FAI will need a couple of weeks to get their ar$es in to gear. If you applied, you'll get one. No way this game is going to be oversubscribed.
I got confirmation today.
Me too. In Section 2. Friends Arena doesn't have a section 2. :D
Still, as long as I have a ticket!
i got confirmation today too
Yep me too. *Slap on the wrist for doubting the FAI Ticket Office efficiency*
Apparently we only asked for and were sold 700 tickets. Though a good friend from Ybig said this figure was much less, well 400.
I didn't get my ticket cos I bloody snoozed on it, forgot and got my application in too late. :(
So I'm looking for 2 tickets for this match. Anyone looking to shift them I will gladly take them off your hands.
You'll get them over there, no bother.
Have you tried emailing the FAI. I know the deadline has passed but they might still be able to offer you something. I imagine that deadline was just in case demand outstripped supply which certainly wont be the case.Quote:

Otherwise you could do as an earlier poster suggested and buy them for the home end in the section next to the Irish fans via the swedish fa's website (details somewhere earlier in this thread).
My ticket application seemingly disappeared and no invoice arrived. Rang the Ticketmaster number from the FAI website. Fella on the phone said they'd some spare, so took my card details and that's me sorted.
The brother clean forgot to apply. He rang, but as he didnt have an account, he was told to contact the FAI to have them create one for him, then ring back.
So if you have an account, ring Ticketmaster. If you don't have one, ring the FAI, then Ticketmaster.
And guarantee there will be spares before and in Stockholm.
Only 400 huh... to think I couldn't get a ticket for the match in Gdansk. Where are all those feckers now...
They're staying away in protest at the brand of football employed by Trap.Quote:

What number did you ring? Cannot see one on the FAI website for ticket master and whatever number I ring that is on their site just keeps putting me around in circles from one option to another. Got onto a bird eventually, she hadn't a clue and gave me a number for their 'sports department' that when I rang didn't exist anymore.Quote:

Is that what is being quoted as how many tickets have been taken for this one? Whats the source? I knew it wouldnt be massive but I expected 1,000-1,500 tbh.Quote:

Not all of them. And people explained at the time why those tickets were so hard to come by, not just the Spain factor.Quote:

Hehe, thanks, I'll have to keep that offer in mind!
I noticed that they had my address wrong(html &, instead of the actual letter and numbers) on their new lovely portal, how many times are they doing to redesign the tickets portal? Anyway just be careful and check its correct if you are getting your tickets sent out.
Does anybody know when the tickets will be sent out? Thanks.
This week.Quote:
