OK...will do

Please remove me from the list, I can no longer accept the tickets as I won't be home in Ireland at the time.

Tickets for the Italy and Montenegro games have to be purchased together. B*stards.

Thats not a surprise. Actually the FAI are probably correct to do it that way from their point of view.

I'm not sure whether i'll make montenegro so I had planned on buying italy tickets friday morning. 4 of the €50 as i'm unemployed and can't afford anything else at the moment but now I have to spend €400........it's a joke don't the FAI realise were in a recession the pr!cks.

Yes, it's not a surprise. It just puts me in a position where I have to choose between taking a chance on being offered 2 on here or buying two extra for montenegro when I'm already sorted. There'll be no chance of getting rid of the Montenegro tickets for any sort of reasonable price.

Don't understand you? It's �50 each so thats �100 + a service fee of �11 so thats �111. How can you come up with a figure of �400. You must be looking for tickets in a corporate box?

I need 4 tickets for each match. It would cost around �450!

**pineapple stu** · 25/09/2009, 9:58 AM

I assume the others will pay you back though?

**gspain** · 25/09/2009, 10:05 AM

The service fee is applied by Ticketmaster. They always have one. It is cheaper if you visit a ticketmaster outlet eg square in Tallaght but there is always a service fee.

The FAI shop has no service fee according to ringo on here.

**ChrisRed** · 25/09/2009, 11:34 AM

I'm sorted now so can be taken of the list.

**IsMiseSean** · 25/09/2009, 2:01 PM

Im sound for tickets... You can remove me from the list!

**boovidge** · 25/09/2009, 2:19 PM

one ticket for both games for you is €100. it's not that bad and frankly the FAI's finances are down the shiitter. I bet they can't wait for the playoffs if we get there and market economics dictate that they will charge what they can get away with without alienating their core support. I don't blame them for profit maximisation and I absolutely don't blame them for packaging tickets. In fact, I think it's the right thing to do because it means more people will show up. I know I'd be there anyway but my dad and brother would only show up for the Italy game if they didn't have to buy the tickets for Montenegro as well.

The ones I had are now gone... I sent pms to everyone down as far as Celdrog and under the'24' hour response rule HarpoJoyce was the first to respond... a few others have also said they'd take them so worth contacing if you have any
