Somebody told me before that touts outside a match or gig can only be done for selling without a vendor's licence, and not the actual touting itself. :confused:Quote:

Sigh, doesn't look like I'll get a ticket after all :(
Maybe an official touting system would help the situation?? Somewhere that will buy back spare tickets for face value and sell for face value.Quote:

It looks like he got his tickets through the Frencs well. There is a pic of the ticket and it has what looks like Visitors association printed on....BOOOOOOO!

definitely issued to the "visiting association" The FFA would have a record of who they issued it to but that's hardly likely to be the guy selling it here :( . You had to have French address and ID to apply to the FFA.
That first one is up to £150 sterling now. Serious money for a seat in the North Terrace. Whats the face value on that does anyone know? €35??
It's €30.
scum. why doesn't anyone do anything about this??
what's happening there is that this guy has bid a high price (say £200), and whenever someone bids against him, ebay automatically bids for him so he constantly appears to be outbidding himself.Quote:

Perhaps the person just used it as an illustration because they hadn't recieved the ticket yet but I doubt that's a genuine ticket for the France game.
Very true PeadarQuote:

I reckon it says 2005 but it still looks pretty dodgy to me. The print on the word "France" is quite faded and there's no stub shown in the photo. It could well be a ticket from a previous match that's been tampered with.Quote:

Last gasp attempt for a ticket today, went asking "a certain gentleman," if he could sort me out, fingies crossed!!!
Although if I get this ticket, Peadar, you'll buy me a pint, won't you??? :D

My friend was supposed to get me one but it hasn't worked out....

i cant understand how so many people who post on this site dont have tickets :confused: no justice at all as you all seem genuine fans. i know quite a few people going who dont strike me as being all that pushed really. its a real pity with an 82,000 stadium just a few miles away :mad:
Thats just the way it is JB, any pub people with no tickets are going to watch it or anything???

What shall I do with this information?
Report it to the FAI of course.Quote:

They may be French tickets and if so the F.A.I. can do nothing but report to the FFF. N11 is definitely for visiting fans. I don't know re N12.Quote:

N12 Row 21 is definitely for French fans. Myself and a mate have tickets for that row. A guy who works for our comapny in Paris got them for us.
