Sorry DI, yes they are.
Tickets from SFA arrived today in the post.....just for information, for those who are fretting about them being cancelled etc...
So does anyone want any of these tickets then?
Please indicate ASAP or will offload elsewhere...
Try sending some of those on the list PMs.
I'm still waiting to hear from the FAI. If I'm unsuccessful, I'll only need the one now.
I would Danny, but in the light of regulars elsewhere getting knockbacks and no-one wanting mine on here, plus the PM system usually inducing no response, am going to withdraw mine for the time being as know (probably) more deserving cases. If they all get sorted, will stick back on offer.
Adding myself to this list. Shocked that I haven't a ticket, tbh. Attending the likes of Kazakhstan, Georgia and Faroes, buying a season ticket, you'd have thought one of 3.5k tickets wouldn't be too much of an ask.

Sorry, mine are off the table currently (as per above), as loads of regulars got let down.
That's shocking alright. A lot of unhappy campers on YBIG too, and rightly so. Did anyone on there get sorted? Would most regulars be in the same boat as yourself or have most bought insurance tickets in the home section? Was it 600 were reserved for Abbey Travel? So who got the remainder then?...Quote:

I know of one person who got a ticket. Another on there claimed he got one, so that's two.Quote:

Abbey, sponsors and SCs seem to have got the tickets. The SC prioritisation is a joke. People who haven't been to an away match in years (or ever). Would they be making the trip if it was to Liechtenstein?
TBH, most regulars didn't considering buying a home end ticket. With 3.5k away tickets going, the assumption was there would be no issues. How wrong we were.
Tbf, my SC's tickets were allocated based on the no.of season tickets they have and the length of people have been members and applying for tickets.
Not the fairest scheme but 100x better than the 'highest bidder' mentality to the likes of Abbey et al. But anyone who was allocated a ticket and hadn't made any accomodation (& travel in some cases) arrangements are unlikely to go, as the costs are now prohibitive...
I haven't heard anything yet. It's worse than being rejected, I'm being ignored!
We didn't even warrant a rejection....Quote:

Scottish contacts would probably help more?
Folks,
We are trying to track just who missed out and to show that the current FAI systems are not fit for purpose

Anyone got any updates on this? Is there anything in the media yet?
I still haven't got an email.
I understand Ger Keville is going to cover it in the Independent this week. He's going to conduct some interviews with affected fans tomorrow afternoon: http://www.ybig.ie/forum/interviews-...opic50220.html
Some of the lads on your favourite Ybig forum, former posters from here, are doing some localish radio in the Dublin area also, I believe.
Near FM, 1830 Irish time, Tuesday 28/10
Even though the Indy's a rag, some publicity is better than none...
The Independent have something on it today.
Although I hope they do a better follow-up - their top line is anger over the ticket allocation. But obviously the anger isn't over the allocation (always going to be small) or the demand (always going to be large). It's about the FAI shafting diehard travellers.
